Research psychologist Angela Duckworth (author of "Grit") and tech and sports executive Mike Maughan really like to ask people questions, and they believe there’s no such thing as a stupid one. So they have a podcast where they can ask each other as many “stupid questions” as they want. New episodes each week. "No Stupid Questions" is a production of the Freakonomics Radio Network.

Love this so much
I loveee this podcast. This got me thinking a lot and I actually learned things from it which is great. Glad that I found this thoughtful and meaningful podcast. It’s delightful to listen to and so how make me relax a bit. ❤️❤️❤️
Like eavesdropping on smart people
I love this podcast. At first I thought it would be aimless meanderings (sorry, name of the title was misleading) but each week has a topic and I’ve taken away many practical applications. I’ve been re-listening to them and love the questions and thoughtful answers (backed by science!) and subsequent one up questions and responses. Their banter is endearing - like listening to old friends debate important issues. Keep up the good work!
