The Annotated Mind
🎙 The Annotated Mind is a space for thinking clearly in a noisy world.
Hosted by Cinzia DuBois, this podcast explores the ideas, patterns, and habits that shape the way we think, learn, and live.
Blending philosophy, psychology, and personal insight, each episode breaks down complex thoughts into something clearer, calmer, and more manageable. For overthinkers, deep thinkers, and anyone trying to make sense of their own mind: this is where we slow down, reflect, and begin to understand.
📖 Because the best ideas aren’t just read—they’re lived.

Does academia kill the joy of reading? In this episode, we explore how studying literature in academic settings—whether in school, university, or postgraduate research—can turn a beloved hobby into a chore. From analysing books to death to racing through reading lists, we discuss how rigid academic expectations might strip the magic from the stories we once loved. But is there a way to reclaim our passion for reading? Tune in as we reflect on personal experiences, literary theory, and practical tips for falling back in love with books.
