What Makes a Life Worth Living?
Episode 12
Wednesday, 14 October, 2026
Dr. Ezekiel “Zeke” Emanuel has spent his career confronting medicine's toughest questions—how we care for the sick, how we face death, and whether living longer always means living better. An oncologist, bioethicist, and one of the key architects of the Affordable Care Act, Zeke has helped shape American healthcare while challenging conventional thinking about life, death, and what makes our years meaningful. His controversial essay, Why I Hope to Die at 75, ignited a fierce debate about aging, longevity, and what makes a life worth living. In a candid and provocative conversation on NO TIME BUT NOW, Zeke, William Shatner, and Melanie Shatner Gretsch explore the difficult choices surrounding end-of-life care, breakthroughs in cancer treatment, and a healthcare system where money too often comes before compassion. Drawing on their own experiences with stage four cancer, William and Melanie join Zeke in exploring the toll of illness, the realities of aging, and his remarkably candid views on how Zeke wants to live, how he wants to be remembered, and what he's unwilling to sacrifice for more time.No Time But Now with William Shatner and Melanie Shatner Gretsch is for informational and educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.
