This is B's.
I'm Angela Duckworth.
I'm Steven Dubner, and you're listening to.
No stupid questions today on the show.
What's the cost of admitting you're wrong?
Ooh, this is so uncomfortable.
I don't really want to do it.
No, no, wait.
Hold on.
I'm going to put up my grown up pants.
Angela, I recently had an embarrassing moment that I thought I could turn into a question for you that will not be embarrassing for you.
This is, like, my favorite thing.
It's gonna be embarrassing for you.
Exactly.
Great.
So I was having a conversation with a neighbor of mine, an elderly japanese fellow, and the shoes I was wearing happened to be this brand of japanese sneaker that I love.
I've been wearing them since high school.
Wait, what's the brand?
They're called onitsuka Tiger.
Or so I thought.
