If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s really such a thing as a “stupid question,” No Stupid Questions is here to challenge that idea. Hosted by research psychologist Angela Duckworth, author of Grit, and tech and sports executive Mike Maughan, this podcast explores a wide range of intriguing topics without hesitation.

Produced by the Freakonomics Radio Network, the podcast takes a thoughtful approach to human behaviour, societal challenges, and everyday curiosities. Each episode combines research, personal experiences, and engaging discussions.

Recent episodes have explored why promising solutions in areas such as education, medicine, and criminal justice often fail to scale into effective policies. Could a new breed of “implementation scientists” hold the key? This discussion builds on episodes like Policymaking Is Not a Science (Yet) and How Should You Ask?

Another episode looks at the U.N.’s World Happiness Report, which consistently ranks Nordic countries at the top. The hosts visit Denmark to investigate what makes these countries so happy and whether their practices can be adopted elsewhere.

The podcast also examines the concept of fresh starts, using examples from the London Underground, Major League Baseball, and New Year’s resolutions.

With new episodes every week, No Stupid Questions encourages listeners to reflect on big questions in a straightforward and accessible way.
