About this episode
There’s a fine line between a voracious hobby and an out-and-out obsession. David Greene, journalist, author and former host of NPR's Morning Edition, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss his dive into people’s personal obsessions, what drives us to latch on and grow certain fascinations and why so often these have nothing to do with the ways we make a living. His podcast is “David Greene is Obsessed” from Campside Media.
