To choose or not to choose (Improv, paradox of choice, is the wrong choice better than no choice?, the poison of indifference)
I believe we are back in the groove of things! Here is another classic episode with just the right amount of disagreement. In this episode we start off with a story about Masoud's improv classes and the weird and wonderful things he's learnt from it. This leads us into a deep debate about whether the wrong choice is better than no choice. The biggest disagreement is on the matter of indifference, which Masoud is strongly against and believes is a dangerous mindset.
