Silence

What happens when we’re asked to sit in silence — no phone, no music, no distractions? In this episode of NUGGETS, Pellegrino and Francois explore our modern allergy to quiet, the experiment where people chose electric shocks over fifteen minutes alone with their thoughts, and why silence used to come more naturally to us. From childhood memories to comedy sketches and mindfulness in disguise, this is a playful but profound conversation about boredom, creativity, and the lost art of doing nothing.Your nugget? If silence feels awkward — it’s probably exactly what you need. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
