from The Dov Baron Show · host Dov Baron

The Godfather of Curiosity: Shaking The Paradigm . As a boy with dyslexia who loved to learn, reading was a struggle for me. However, I was fortunate to have grown up during the golden age of TV. . Watching shows that exposed me to new ways of thinking and understanding, I was able to feed my insatiable curiosity. . One of my favorite shows was the BBC1 science series "Tomorrow's World." Later, I came across the ten-part documentary series #Connections, broadcast on the BBC and PBS in the United States. . Connections traced the historical relationships between invention and discovery. Each episode chronicled a particular path of technological development. Connections was the most-watched PBS television series up to that time. It was followed by the twenty-part Connections 2 (1994) and the ten-part Connections 3 (1997) . Our esteemed guest, James Burke, and his partner created these shows. Professor James Burke has been a regular writer for Scientific American, Time, and a consultant to the SETI project.

He was the BBC chief reporter on Apollo 11. For over fifty years, he has produced and hosted many TV series for the BBC, PBS, and Discovery.
