How might understanding the experiences of disability help us be more curious about our own and others' minds and bodies?
And, most importantly, how might any of that help us be kinder and more patient with ourselves and each other?
I’m profoundly grateful to legal scholar and disability media-maker Qudsiya Naqui for proposing today’s topic.

Ep. #291: Making Sense: Curiosity & Smell, with Venkatesh Murthy
Lean into the language of smell with me: we sniff things out, we follow a scent. We’re nosey!
Is this not curiosity, enacted? Embodied!?
So what do we know about our sense of smell, and might studying it offer insights into the way our brains explore, learn and remember?
