I had the same problem. I could run my code when calling spyder from a terminal, rather than from the anaconda app, WITHOUT having to use sudo.

I can no longer use Conda commands on a Mac OS Catalina. Think it may be something to do with the shell changing to bin/zsh. Having the same problem with anaconda and Spyder wonder if they are connected?
