5.0/5
Critic Rating
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.

"If you enjoy taking a fresh, data-driven look at what is happening in the world today this may be the podcast for you. The emphasis is generally on the United States but concepts and examples from around the world and history are incorporated to help the listener grapple with those trickiest of questions, the ones that begin with: Why?"

"Presenter Stephen Dubner, who is clever and great, challenged the academic about what this test meant. The really ace thing about Freakonomics is that there are so many episodes to choose from, episodes that unpick gossip, violence, exercise – all from an economic perspective."
