David Greene is Obsessed

David Greene is Obsessed

A new weekly show about the things that consume us, the things we can't let go of, and why it all matters. Every week, David Greene — the long-time co-host of NPR's biggest show, Morning Edition — faces off with a new guest, to confront and discuss the things that consume them. What do our obsessions mean? What do they say about us? And why do we need them? It's a show about connecting with people, sharing stories of our obsessions, and working through them. From politics to pizza, karaoke to knitting, name just about anything, and someone out there has an obsession with it.
