What scares you? Spiders? Climate change? Getting too close to the edge of a cliff and accidentally falling off? This question provides the premise of this podcast from WNYC Studios, where someone lists â you guessed it â ten of their fears. It might sound trite, but listening to peoplesâ anxieties, it turns out, gives a fascinating insight into the human psyche. Seemingly all of us are scared of a range of serious and silly things. In fact, pushing the big and small together is one of the things that makes the podcast so enjoyable (and reassuring during a time when it feels like thereâs a lot to be scared of).
