Episode one of the new Two Percent podcast is live.

It’s about walking—but really, it’s about why one of the simplest things we can do is also one of the most powerful.

Then I talked to Foster Kamer about one of the greatest walks of all time—which he took!—and how walking is a metaphor for life.
