Each week we kick off our conversations with the smartest people in the universe with one humble question: “Why are you vital to the survival of the species?”

The responses typically range from laughter, modest denial, to audible discomfort. But when the air clears, we typically get some gems of insight that give us a glimpse at how we all have some role to play in our survival as a species. Today, we’re taking a look back to highlight some of those responses and hopefully give us some hope for a better world.
