John Tesh · Host
What arrives
One email. One idea. One thing to do today.
No app. No login. No forty-minute podcast you never finish. It lands in your inbox in the morning and it is done before your coffee is.
The research, in plain English
Harvard, Mayo Clinic, Duke. We read the studies so you do not have to, and we tell you what they actually found — not what a headline claimed they found.
Ninety seconds of audio
Press play right inside the email and hear it in John's voice, the same way you hear it in the car. Or just read it. Both are there.
One specific thing to try
Not a philosophy. Something you can do before you go to bed tonight, and know by tomorrow whether it worked.
Why readers stay
It feels like advice from someone who knows you.
“John and I are about the same age and I feel I am receiving sage advice from a peer. Love the writing style — straight and to the point. No gobbledygook.”
Anne R.“They are always the first email, and sometimes the only email, I read each day.”
Libi H.“You inject wisdom into my life on a regular basis.”
Terri D.“Thank you for being such a wonderful and informative person who truly cares about people. It's an absolute blessing, and a rarity these days.”
Ryan M.
How it's made
Recorded in the morning. In your inbox by breakfast.
Same voice you hear in the car. Same studio the radio show comes out of. No production crew standing between the research and you — John reads the studies, writes it down, and records it.
From readers
They write back. Every single day.

What we cover
Finishing strong takes all three.
Sleep, pain, and the long game
Why you wake at three in the morning. What to eat before bed and what to skip. Mobility that keeps you on your feet. The habits that add years, and the ones quietly taking them.
Memory, purpose, next chapter
Protecting your memory. Quieting a mind that will not shut off. And the harder question underneath it — what this next stretch of your life is actually for.
The part medicine is just catching up to
Researchers at Duke, Harvard, and Mayo keep finding the same thing: a regular spiritual practice measurably lowers stress hormones and lengthens life. We start with the science. Where you take it from there is yours.

The host
Why John Tesh reads the studies himself.
Before the radio show, John spent ten years co-hosting Entertainment Tonight and built a music career that produced four gold albums, eight million records sold, six Emmys, and the NBA theme most of America can still hum.
Then, in 2015, a diagnosis. Doctors told him he had about eighteen months. He is still here — still on the air, still married to Connie after more than thirty years, still doing the work every morning.
Which is the short version of why this show exists. When your own life depends on finding the good information fast, you stop tolerating the noise. Intelligence for Your Life is the result: a team that reads the research, throws out the hype, and hands you the part that matters.
