Episode Synopsis

Mark Twain wrote, “There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable.” Nothing piques our curiosity like being told we can’t know something. Molly Roberts, professor of political science at UC San Diego, studies censorship in China. It's fascinating - and chilling.

Theme music by Sean Balick. "Hammer and Damper" by Blue Nocturnal, at Blue Dot Sessions.

Join us next time when Narendra Keval explores curiosity and racist mindsets, the latest in our Curiosity Studies series.
