Peter also shares the personal story of how he radically changed his own views, and why being willing to revise your beliefs isn’t just intellectual humility… it’s a moral responsibility.  And Peter explains how to make donations to charity have the greatest impact in 2026.    LINKS   More info on  The Life You Can Save ’s work  Grab Peter’s book ‘The Life You Can Save’ for  free   Listen to Peter’s podcast  ‘Lives Well Lived’   Sign up to the Better Than Yesterday newsletter   Watch episodes of  Better Than Yesterday on YouTube   Watch full stories recorded live at Story Club  on YouTube   Get tickets for our next Story Club show  Get Osher's latest book \"So What?
