2026 is here. Like many of you, Sam and I had both hoped that we could sweep up the negative detritus of the past year and heave it in the dustbin along with the torn bits of ribbon and holiday wrapping paper. In less than 30 days 2026 already feels like a future spiraling headlong and out of control. It makes one want to escape, and seek out a peaceful place where all of humanity can be welcome, but also healed.
Shangri-La is such a place.
Please join Sam and I for this in depth discussion of Frank Capra’s masterpiece based on James Hilton’s bestselling novel from 1933.
Human history has a very strange way of repeating itself.
