Where does sentimental value come from? Why did Angela throw out her childhood journals? And would Mike wear Hitler’s sweater?
I honestly am just kind of reeling over here.
I'm Angela Duckworth.
I'm Mike Mann, and you're listening to.
No stupid questions today on the show, what makes an object feel emotionally significant?
I'm like, why can't I.
Why can't I give him a bike?
He's like, please don't give that bike away, Mike.
We have an email today from a ceramic artist.
Hi, Angela.
Mike.
I'm currently studying ceramics at the University of Georgia.
I've been thinking a lot about the importance of objects in our lives.
For example, a handmade mug from a beloved professor that I'm reluctant to use.
So my question is, how do we assign value to objects?
And does using the object add value or degrade the object?
Thank you, Jordan.
W.
I will say you once sent me a mug with a picture of the two of us on it.
Wait, what?
I don't remember.
