What if one day, over the course of a few hours, you lost all of your hearing? That was Michael Chorost’s reality. Michael is an author who had to relearn how to hear after receiving a cochlear implant. Michael and Chris talk about the reality of brain-computer interfaces, the future of hearing, and how hearing loss taught Michael to become a better listener.
