Conversations on Intellectual Humility

by JSTOR Daily

Intellectual humility is a willingness to admit that you might be wrong about something you believe. The idea originated with philosophers like Aristotle, then found its way into the modern academy via social science. We explore manifestations of IH in classrooms, at the doctors, in bars, in religious communities, in GenAI.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

JSTOR Daily has been such a pioneer in the research based publication space, where podcasts like Radiolab navigated in the audio storytelling space two decades ago. So at LONG LAST, it’s terrific to have Daily in this space as well. They tell stories as they always have, with respect for the nuance of the characters and situation, with depth and cited sources and they are NEVER boring or pedantic.

InHumanity’sCorner · Dec 2025

In a world overflowing with (mis)information and evolving technologies, understanding and embracing intellectual humility has never been more crucial. That's why I'm so impressed by this Conversations on Intellectual Humility podcast. Intellectual humility should be considered an essential human virtue. Each episode offers credible, compelling, and fresh perspectives and inspires great philosophical thought and discussion.

TheHarmoniousOne · Feb 2024

Great series challenging our seemingly innate right/wrong dichotomy, grounded in civil inquisition. A joy to listen to and contemplate.

Bodhi65 · Feb 2024

A refreshing and open-minded approach to a very timely topic. I hope to hear more from our pals at JSTOR Daily!
