We humans seem to like each other, except when we're hating each other.
I'm Angela Duckworth.
I'm Stephen Dubner, and you're listening to.
No stupid questions today on the show.
Should we replace human umpires with robots?
If the purpose here is to get it right, then why on earth would we even want to have the humans around for that?
Steven, I have a question for you that comes from watching my husband.
Are you ready for this one?
I'm not sure.
Now you put it that way.
First of all, he's fully clothed in these observations, and he's seated in our living room and screaming.
So now he's actually probably standing up yelling at the television during the World Series, which, you know, is now in the rearview mirror, unfortunately.
Is this because he's a Philadelphia sport?
Because they are the worst, the yellingest, the loudest.
But he doesn't strike me as that.
I mean, he's a sports fan and he's in Philly, and he's rooting for Philadelphia teams.
We do have a reputation.
Is that why he's yelling, though?
The Phillies did lose the World Series this year.
He yells in other games, too, basketball games, for example.
