Happy Sunday TED Talks Daily listeners.

I am Elise Hugh, and we are continuing to share a handful of talks, conversations, and

podcast episodes from the TED archive that sparked some reflection as we head towards the new year.

And today we're bringing you a very fun episode of

another TED podcast, How to Be a Better Human. Remember those high school superlatives like

class clown or biggest flirt? In this episode, you'll hear from Dallas youth poet laureate

Naisha Rondar and How to Be a Better Humans team of editors, marketers, producers,

producers, fact checkers, and more on their favorite episodes this year through the lens of such superlatives

like, most likely to make you rethink your place in the world, or most likely to make you feel your feels,

best motivator, and more. And if you want to hear more insights like this, listen to

How to Be a Better Human wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, now on to the episode.

You're listening to How to Be a Better Human.

I'm your host, Chris Duffy.

We are coming to the end of the year, and it has been a really big season for our podcast.

So before we graduate, before we move on to our next season, we want to take a little look back.

And we're going to do that in today's episode, high school yearbook style.

So people from across our podcast team are going to pick an episode and give it a superlative. You remember those, right? Things like Most Like It is Succeed, or Biggest Class Clown. If I was going to get a superlative for this episode, it would probably be most likely to have a seasonal head cold and sound like his nose is stuffed up because it is. Okay, so this episode, this is that. This is the superlative episode. And these superlatives are going to be bestowed by folks who work on this show, who produce it, who fact check it and keep it going. We've even got a previous podcast guest, poet Naisha Randhar, who's going to share her own superlative pick. I am going to get out of the way, so you're going to hear the voices of members of our team, and then after they tell you which episode they picked for a superlative, you'll hear an excerpt from that episode. I want to also note that some superlatives were so popular that multiple people wanted to share their episode pick for that same superlative. So you will have to listen to the whole episode to find out which superlative wins most popular superlative, which is itself,

of course, a superlative. Okay, that is more than enough for me. Let's get started with Lainey Lott,

our audience marketing associate. And Lany has an episode on which she would like to bestow this

superlative most likely to make you rethink your place in the world. Here's Lainey.
