My particular fascination
The Podcast
The important writers, actors, musicians, athletes, scientists, researchers, and thinkers of our time are known for certain things—their Nobel-winning area of study, those big superhero movies they made, or the book they wrote that sold five million copies. But what about those things that they're deeply, obsessively into that we don't know about? That's what I'm interested in, and that's what I'm asking our guests about on the brand-new podcast, My Particular Fascination.
