Don't even finish the sentence. I'm Angela Duckworth. I'm Stephen Dubner. And you're listening to No Stupid Questions. Today on the show, what can you do to make boring tasks less tedious?
I quit. I'm not going to pay taxes this year. Also, are people overreacting about the risk that COVID presents to kids? Left, right, center, children everywhere. How did I get here?
I don't know. Angela, I realized something about myself recently. It's fairly troubling, and I'd like to run it past you to see if you can fix me, 'cause you're good at that. No problem. I am often in a rush.
