George Couros hosts this solo podcast to reflect on a recent newsletter he wrote and his own reading of The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt. Couros reflects on 3 Cs for Learning and shared this in a recent newsletter: “Driven by curiosity, making connections and ultimately creating something with this information will help me better understand my own thinking.”


 

Quotes:

“Curiosity is having a well-rounded understanding of others even when you don‘t agree with them.” - George Couros

The New 3Cs for Learning - The #InnovatorsMindset #Podcast S5 EP23

Can we capture what makes us curious? Where does our curiosity cross into confusion, or frustration? Can we place it? Might we experience it in one domain, but not another?

These are the kinds of questions that animate the work of Emily Grossnickle Peterson, Ph.D., director of the Educational Neuroscience Lab at American University.

Years after first meeting, we finally sat down to talk…

CHOOSE TO BE CURIOUS

Ep. #236: Images of Curiosity: Visual & Domain-Specific, with Emily Peterson

Peder Söderlind describes himself as a Swedish author, researcher and entrepreneur, but I believes he's an important emerging curiosity theorist. His writing and thinking on the topic are rich in all the best ways -- evocative, provocative, constructive.

Our conversation moved from "local, difficult, and meaningful" problems for keeping our minds curious and framing problems as opportunities, to the paradox of fatigue and the importance of seeing.

Ep. #237: Curiosity at Work: A Swedish Perspective, with Peder Söderlind

My guest in this episode is Tom Biegalski. Tom’s a photographer and videographer, but to say that is like saying that 'Ansel Adams took snapshots.' He specializes in photographing things that can’t be seen with the naked eye, using techniques that fall into Arthur C. Clarke’s well-known quote that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. His Web site, TTBPhoto.com, is filled with examples of his work. Please take a few minutes to visit the galleries there, and be sure to click on the YouTube link at the bottom of the home page to see his videos. The slow-motion dragonflies are mesmerizing.

Episode 249 - Seeing The Unseen With Tom Biegalski

"Curiosity is fundamental to writing and to everything that I treasure," said writer Rachel Kadish as we opened our conversation. Hard to imagine, but it just kept getting better from there...

Inspired by her New York Times opinion essay on teaching writers to seek "unflinching empathy", I invited her to join me for a conversation about putting our trust in the curiosity.

Lab of Wonder

It's hard to believe that over the course of 70 months--from September 2018 to this episode in June 2024--I have published 250 episode in tis crazy journey of discovery. thanks for being along for the ride--there's lots more to come!

Episode 250 - Thank You

Tim Brookes is many things: accomplished author with many prestigious publishing credits to his name; woodworker; college professor and program director; and the founder of the Endangered Alphabets Project. We've all heard about languages disappearing, especially those that have no written form. Well, alphabets are also disappearing--and Tim is on a mission to save them.

Episode 251 - Tim Brookes And The Endangered Alphabet Project

Not long ago I got a request from a young student to do an episode on the Podcast about roly polies, which happened to be this student’s favorite animal in the universe—his words. So, I did. And that kicked off a flurry of other requests, which I dutifully fulfilled. 

This episode is the result of a request from a junior high student who wanted to know about the field of geology. So, I started to do some research on the topic, and after about 30 minutes of digging, I had an epiphany, which caused me to go stand in front of a mirror and slap myself a few times for being an idiot. My Dad is a retired hard rock geologist, so rather than research the field, I decided to go straight to the horse’s mouth, as it were, and ask him. So, in this episode, I’d like to introduce you to my dad, Bob Shepard. I asked him to share his story with me, as a way to answer the question that came in from Andrea in Oklahoma City. So, without further ado, here’s my dad!

Episode 252 - Interview With A Geologist

One of my favorite quotes comes from Anthropologist Loren Eiseley. He said, “If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water.” In this episode I’m going to prove it.

A lot of you probably know that the first stage of my professional career was as a SCUBA instructor and commercial diver. I spent thousands of hours under the surface of the Pacific Ocean, enthralled by what my hero Jacques Cousteau called The Silent World. We divers used to laugh good-naturedly at that, because the ocean is anything but silent. It’s filled with noise, and I’m not talking about boats and such, although there’s plenty of that, too. I’m talking about snapping shrimp, parrotfish, ocean waves and swells passing overhead, the clicks of dolphins, the eerie call of whales, and all the other sounds we used to listen to and wonder about. 

But it isn’t just oceanic creatures that make noise. As you’re about to learn, it turns out that freshwater ponds are filled with sound. Yes, that still, calm little pond over there may be quiet above, but most likely, below the surface, there’s a whole symphony going on.

My guest on this program is an acoustic ecologist who has studied aquatic sound, but more than that, he has come up with ways to use sound as a predictor of freshwater environmental health—and as a tool for the restoration of ponds in areas where human activity has degraded them.

Episode 253 - The Secret Life Of Ponds With Acoustic Ecologist Jack Greenhalgh

Annabelle Tometich -- writer, editor, former food critic and now author -- joins me to explore the tricky, high-traffic intersection of identity and curiosity.

Who gets to decide identity? How do we determine our own, let alone someone else's, identity? How might we allow ourselves and others a little grace to figure these things out?

Ep. #239: Identity & the Grace of Curiosity, with Annabelle Tometich

What do people who know and appreciate a place deeply see that I might not? 

The Mount Vernon Trail winds its way along the river, a combination national park and major commuter artery. It's a place I find myself frequently and I wondered: what am I not seeing in this place that is so familiar?

The Trail is there because the Potomac River is there, an always-scenic but often-silent companion. What might I be missing? 

This is the second in a periodic series of shows in which we "walk a mile" in someone else's shoes, seeing the world through others' eyes.

Anne-Laure Le Cunff is a Choose to Be Curious trifecta: researcher, theoretician -- and practitioner. A neuroscientist and deep thinker about the personal and social implications of our curiosity, she conducts tiny experiments to focus closely on how we use our time and energy to best effect.

Anne-Laure is the founder of Ness Labs, a collective platform for curious people, where “ambitious knowledge workers come together to achieve their goals without sacrificing their mental health.”

Ness Labs offers content, coaching, courses and--perhaps most importantly--a community for learning in public together.

I am excited to see how her vibrant and collective study-and-practice culture shapes how we think about curiosity in the years ahead.

Ep. #241: Curiosity, Tiny Experiments & Liminal Space, with Anne-Laure Le Cunff

This is a podcast devoted to our wonderful colleagues in the Visitor Economy and service industry.  Grant Alchin and Scott Boyes love all things leadership and hotels and love talking about it.  We hope you like this podcast half as much as we love making it.

From the depths of the Spree and its canals come the River Rats! They drag two guitars, double-bass and violin through the gloomy tunnels of Berlin to their moon-lit sessions. Influenced by the diminished lines of Django Reinhardt, the heart of the variété française and the spirit of old-time country and blues, the Rats wander between the ragged niches of Kreuzberg's street jams and the glamorous grand theater. With members from Italy, France and Germany, the River Rats combine the north and the south, dark and light, contemplation and euphoria.

Choose to be Curious is a show all about curiosity. We talk about research and theory, but mostly it's conversations about how curiosity shows up in work and life.  

Now syndicated and available via Pacifica RadioNetwork.

I photograph, record, and write about the natural world. I see, I listen, I write. I fundamentally believe that curiosity can save the world—so I publish stories to make people curious. Ultimately, curiosity leads to discovery, discovery leads to knowledge, knowledge leads to insight, and insight leads to understanding. Please enjoy!

I am a learner, author, speaker, and sometimes I make podcasts talking about any and all of these things.  One day, I will rap in my podcasts officially making me a SoundCloud rapper.

The Inking Out Loud podcast is brought to you by Rob Santos and Drew McCaffrey. We read, re-read, critique, and analyze science fiction and fantasy novels—and enjoy a cold one while we do it.
