  • The MacArthur Foundation awards the "Genius Grant" every year to the most compelling scientists, educators and artists in the country. But who are these "geniuses," really? Host Bob Garfield sits down with fellows, including writer and producer David Simon, radio producer Jad Abumrad, and inventor Amy Smith, to learn what events shaped their life, how they became leaders in their fields, and what they imagine our shared future looks like.

    When you add The Genius Dialogues to your library you will receive all 12 episodes, each with a runtime of approximately 35 minutes.

Great Show

I really loved some of the talks, they were about fascinating people who through their efforts have had distinct and substantial effects on people's lives. They bring people together, create teams bent on improving their own lives and the lives of others. It's inspiring and I overall really enjoyed learning about these people and "their" problems and their create solutions. I say overall because a couple of the people out of all the episodes, I just couldn't figure out why they had won the award. For example there was an artist and a radio jockey. Yes they changed their industry, but compared to the other winners such as the investigative journalist or the inventor. They pale considerably in their contribution to improving humanity's lot.
