Navigating Choice: The Interplay of Influence and Curiosity

This week we take a poke at the whole premise: CAN we choose to be curious? American University professor of philosophy Asia Ferrin and I try on various philosophical hats as we explore why and where and how and for whom curiosity might be a choice. Or not. Fascinating! Theme music by Sean Balick. Check out Sean's new album "From the Pines" available on Soundcloud. Join me next time when John L. Jackson Jr., dean of the Annenberg School for Communication at UPenn, is with me to talk about ethnography and cultures of curiosity.
