    What Would You Do If You Were Me? | Ken Woodward #105
    Oct 22 2026
    "I sat there with them and realized I had no story to trade. Not a faded one. None." - Ken Woodward With the election less than two weeks away, I caught myself asking how those knuckleheads could vote that way. Underneath it: I would never do that if I were them. It starts with an observation from Jason Pargin about a particular question that is often misinterpreted and a couple others that sound alike. What would you do? What would you do in my shoes? What would you do if you were me? I tell the story of my turn from straight-ticket Republican to bright blue, and the six months in 2016 when new friendships showed me how little I understood about lives I thought resembled mine. Drawing on Melissa Harris-Perry’s Sister Citizen, Thomas Nagel’s idea of moral luck, and research on deep canvassing, I ask how much credit I can take for changing, and what I owe the people who pay for a vote. It closes with sonder and a question: What don’t I know about the life behind this choice? This Curated Questions episode can be found on all major platforms and at CuratedQuestions.com.

  • The Question After the Aha! | Ken Woodward #105

    The Question After the Aha! | Ken Woodward #105
    Oct 15 2026
    "A statement claims to be finished, and that claim is exactly what time comes back to audit. A question never claimed to be finished." - Ken Woodward Some ideas arrive like lightning. Others crawl. In 2016, one of my slowest ideas began with a turtle in John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath. Ten years later, it’s still walking. This episode explores a new study on the “Aha! glow.” Professional writers and physicists logged their most creative ideas, then rated them again six months later. The physicists’ flashes of insight held up. The writers’ faded. The quiet ideas grew in both groups. I revisit my year of daily questions, where the statements aged and the questions didn’t. I also return to Hank, an 85-year-old I nearly walked past during my walk of every street in DC, because I’d already decided he had little to say. Along the way: submarine navigation, the cocked hat, and why one bearing is never a fix. The question I’m carrying: What answer am I trusting because of how it felt when it arrived?

  • Still Sharp: Lulu Miller on the Questions We Stop Asking | Lulu Miller #104

    Still Sharp: Lulu Miller on the Questions We Stop Asking | Lulu Miller #104
    Oct 8 2026
    " Real curiosity, untethered, unsoftened, it's a pretty intense tool. And I think the kids haven't blunted the weapon by politeness or by fear of looking dumb or by the belief that there are certain things we should know. It's still sharp." - Lulu Miller Lulu Miller first found the power of questions on a subway train, listening to an early Radiolab episode about fireflies that blink in unison. That question opened a door she had been looking for since childhood: another world, inside this one. Today she co-hosts Radiolab with Latif Nasser, co-founded Invisibilia, and created Terrestrials, a nature podcast for kids and families. Her international bestseller, Why Fish Don't Exist, begins with a question many of us carry quietly: what is the point? Her answer reminds us that the categories we trust are often questions we stop asking. But the power scared her. She once fled journalism for a fiction MFA, convinced her questions could hurt people. Jad Abumrad's reframe brought her back: those worries are the sound of your moral compass. In this conversation, Lulu shares three ways to move a conversation past the rehearsed version: ask something tactile, ask the elephant-in-the-room question, and interrupt with care. Then the kids on Terrestrials take over, asking NASA scientists and the poet laureate the blunt, open questions adults soften away. Real curiosity, unsoftened, is still sharp. Who blunted ours?
