American legend Studs Terkel — radio personality, oral historian, and one of America's greatest raconteurs — speaks with Krista Tippett in his home in Chicago. They discuss large questions he's pondering anew in his 90's — life and work, loss and death. A self-professed agnostic in his ninth decade, Terkel also has much to say about religion and his lifelong pursuit to understand "what makes people tick."
