Hello here, fellow adventurous minds and curiosity seekers. Welcome back to Applied Curiosity Lab Radio. This week's Curiosity Bite makes me think about whether we are ever too old to change our mind. Are we?

How do you form your opinions?

How do you evaluate evidence to make up your mind?

Discuss, debate, and dissect with us!

The lens is – and always will be – curiosity. Each week, fun informal conversations center around one delectable Curiosity Bite designed to give your brain the time and ideas to think about thinking, to flex your curiosity muscle… and maybe even… revolutionize the way you think.

This week's Curiosity Bite:

What's the Last Thing You Changed Your Mind About and Why?

 

In this episode...Curious Questions asked and answered

How much should we value our own experiences?

How much should we blame willpower?

Why should you beware of "always" and "nevers"?

Would you avoid personalizing if it resulted in better judgment?

What's an honorable end to war?

Do you think that people who are consistent are more competent?

Would you try a virtual near-death experience in order to give you perspective and change your mind?
