Am I Normal? with Mona Chalabi
Podcast door TED
Dit is een gratis podcast, die je op elk podcast platform kunt beluisteren. Zonder abonnement heb je toegang tot alle gratis podcasts in de Podimo App.
We all want to know if we’re normal—do I have enough friends? Should it take me this long to get over my ex? Should I move or stay where I am? Endlessly curious data journalist Mona Chalabi NEEDS to know, and she’s ready to dive into the numbers to get some answers. But studies and spreadsheets don’t tell the whole story, so she’s consulting experts, strangers, and even her mum to fill in the gaps. The answers might surprise you, and make you ask: does normal even exist?
Am I Normal? with Mona Chalabi is produced in partnership with Transmitter Media.

Lessons from the happiest place in the world
For multiple years in a row, Gallup has named Finland the happiest country in the world. But can you actually measure happiness — and what do the Finns know that the rest of the world doesn’t? Before you move to Finland, we talk to a Finnish “happyologist” about how she defines happiness, what we can learn from even trying to quantify something so subjective, and why happiness might be less of an individual pursuit than you think.
