Description

A basketball coach, a doctor, and a history professor walk into a bar….
This might be the start of a great joke OR the start of an episode of Everything Happens. 
In this conversation, Kate Bowler speaks with Duke Men’s Basketball Coach, Jon Scheyer and the current US Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy. Together they discuss:

What is ailing Americans (especially young people)—loneliness (and why it can be so embarrassing to admit)
Practical tips to connecting with others
The usefulness and pitfalls of social media use

This conversation was taped live at Duke University as part of the Surgeon General’s We Are Made to Connect Tour. A huge thank you to Chris Simmons, the Office of Student Affairs, and the Office of the US Surgeon General for making this possible.
