On tour for his new book, Vibe: The Secrets of Strong Connections in a Lonely World, Adam sits down with filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan to discuss how to spark, strengthen, and shift a vibe, how many close connections it’s possible to have, and why instant chemistry doesn’t always lend itself to long-term compatibility. Adam also shares insights on connection from basketball teams and married couples, and Night pulls back the curtain on how he changes his crews to set up surprising twists in movies like The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and The Village.
