ABOUT NO STUPID QUESTIONS:
Research psychologist Angela Duckworth (author of Grit) and tech and sports executive Mike Maughan really like to ask people questions, and they believe there’s no such thing as a stupid one. So they have a podcast where they can ask each other as many “stupid questions” as they want. New episodes each week.
ABOUT THE FREAKONOMICS RADIO NETWORK:
Freakonomics began as a book, which led to a blog, a documentary film, more books, a pair of pants, and in 2010, a podcast called Freakonomics Radio. Hosted by Stephen J. Dubner, it’s one of the most popular podcasts in the world, with a reputation for storytelling that is both rigorous and entertaining. Its archive of more than 500 episodes is available, for free, on any podcast app, and the show airs weekly on NPR stations. Freakonomics Radio is now the flagship show of the Freakonomics Radio Network, which includes the podcasts No Stupid Questions, People I (Mostly) Admire, and The Economics of Everyday Things.

Well this is embarrassing, no engagement!
Funny how anyone objectively at the forefront of their industry and on a rocket like trajectory, fuelled by relentless self promotion... could even THINK of having an opinion on shame... which is what impostor syndrome is based on.
And like the similarly endowed male presenter admitted, if you think you're great and everyone else gives you that feedback too... Jeez. I am SO perfect!
What it really is - passive aggressive communication of how successful you are means you are too humble (!) to accept the plaudits. Which means the only 'sufferers' are already OBJECTIVELY successful.
And the point of the endless meme is that plenty of subpar mofos THINK they are successful... And ironically ascribe their sense of doom to this cute meme... Whereas they should be watching the one on Dunning Kruger !!
So be careful what you wish for.
