Can Science Change the Future? – The 100 Year Effect
Can a film about science both entertain and inspire meaningful change? In this episode of Wild Rivers Film Radio, host Bev Juday welcomes Dr. Kent Thornburg and Kelsey Mueller Wendt for a compelling conversation about the new documentary The 100 Year Effect. Together, they explore groundbreaking research revealing how the conditions we experience early in life can shape our health across a lifetime—and potentially influence the health of future generations. Dr. Thornburg and Kelsey share insights into the science behind the film, the challenge of transforming complex research into an engaging human story, and the implications for families, communities, and public policy. At the heart of the conversation is a powerful question: Can documentary storytelling help us understand the science, rethink how we approach lifelong health, and inspire meaningful change for generations to come?
