Acerca de esta escucha
How can one find inspiration and joy in the midst of disillusion? In the fall of 2020, as the pandemic raged on and the world reeled with trauma and loss, writer Luca Mazzotti began to look for ways to replace his existential dread with a renewed zest for life. He decided to sit down and explore the random fragments of life he could depend on for emotional comfort and intellectual stimulation.
Combining introspection with investigation, recollections with analysis, and ideas with testimony, the end result was a compendium of twenty-five references, ideas, passions, and interests that offered him a canvas of reasons to feel alive, despite the circumstances. Unexpectedly, the project unleashed a small chain reaction as those who enjoyed the book “followed the recipe” and made their own lists of the things that thrilled them. This audiobook is one writer’s invitation to bring fascination and inspiration into our daily lives by discovering the unique and extraordinary stories behind our favorite things.

In Joyful, designer Ingrid Fetell Lee explores how the seemingly mundane spaces and objects we interact with every day have surprising and powerful effects on our mood. Drawing on insights from neuroscience and psychology, she explains why one setting makes us feel anxious or competitive while another fosters acceptance and delight—and, most importantly, she reveals how we can harness the power of our surroundings to live fuller, healthier, and truly joyful lives.

Simon Critchley first encountered David Bowie in the early '70s, when the singer appeared on Britain's most-watched music show, Top of the Pops. His performance of "Starman" mesmerized Critchley: it was "so sexual, so knowing, so strange". Two days later Critchley's mum bought a copy of the single; she liked both the song and the performer's bright orange hair (she had previously been a hairdresser). The seed of a lifelong love affair was thus planted in the mind of her son, aged 12.

Josh Clark and Chuck Bryant started the podcast Stuff You Should Know back in 2008 because they were curious - curious about the world around them, curious about what they might have missed in their formal educations, and curious to dig deeper on stuff they thought they understood.

Awe is mysterious. How do we begin to quantify the goose bumps we feel when we see the Grand Canyon, or the utter amazement when we watch a child walk for the first time? How do you put into words the collective effervescence of standing in a crowd and singing in unison, or the wonder you feel while gazing at centuries-old works of art? In Awe, Dacher Keltner presents a radical investigation and deeply personal inquiry into this elusive emotion.

Historia
One of the great, but often unmentioned, causes of both happiness and misery is the quality of our environment: the kinds of chairs, walls, buildings, and streets that surround us. And yet, a concern for architecture is too often described as frivolous, even self-indulgent. Alain de Botton starts from the idea that where we are heavily influences who we can be, and argues that it is architecture's task to stand as an eloquent reminder of our full potential.

James Gleick's story begins at the turn of the 20th century, with the young H. G. Wells writing and rewriting the fantastic tale that became his first book, an international sensation: The Time Machine. A host of forces were converging to transmute the human understanding of time, some philosophical and some technological - the electric telegraph, the steam railroad, the discovery of buried civilizations, and the perfection of clocks.

It used to be pretty easy to distinguish between the bourgeois world of capitalism and the bohemian counterculture. The bourgeois worked for corporations, wore gray, and went to church. The bohemians were artists and intellectuals. Bohemians championed the values of the liberated 1960s; the bourgeois were the enterprising yuppies of the 1980s.

Historia
When facing a moral dilemma, Isabel Dalhousie--Edinburgh philosopher, amateur detective, and title character of a series of novels by best-selling author Alexander McCall Smith - often refers to the great twentieth-century poet W. H. Auden. This is no accident: McCall Smith has long been fascinated by Auden. Indeed, the novelist, best known for his No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series, calls the poet not only the greatest literary discovery of his life but also the best of guides on how to live.

Listen If You Want to Expand Your Horizons
I just finished this and I found it both delightful and enlightening. On one hand, it’s a deeply analytical dive into a collection of cultural touchstones. But on the other, it’s a window into what gives this particular writer’s life wonder and meaning. Mr. Mazzotti is clearly passionate and has a lot to say. I also learned quite a bit. As an artist myself, I live to learn and expand my horizons. I’m sure those who share this sentiment would also appreciate your book greatly. It may even inspire you to write your own list of favorite things.
