  • Claire Dederer - Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma

    Claire Dederer - Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma
    Mar 12 2025

    Today, I speak with an old friend, Claire Dederer, about her seminal book, Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma. We ask the question: Is it possible to appreciate an artist's work if the artist's behavior is monstrous? Is the work of artists like Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, Prince, and Alice Munro better understood if we have a greater awareness of the complexities of their lives, or is there a point at which the work is spoiled forever? At what point can we no longer separate the art from the artist? What is your breaking point?

  • Jeff Ament - The Origins of Pearl Jam

    Jeff Ament - The Origins of Pearl Jam
    Mar 5 2025

    Today, I have a conversation with my old friend Jeff Ament. We discussed his incredible rock 'n' roll journey—from the Seattle hardcore scene of the '80s to the rise of '90s Grunge, and eventually becoming the rock star bassist of Pearl Jam. Jeff is like the "Lucy" of Grunge, with stints in three of Seattle's most influential bands: Green River, Mother Love Bone, and Pearl Jam. We talked about his surprising influences and the transformative moments that helped shape what we now know as Pearl Jam. A fun ride for music fans, and to top it off, he loves my books!

  • Rita Omokha - Resist!

    Rita Omokha - Resist!
    Feb 26 2025

    Today I speak with journalist and author Rita Omokha about her new book, Resist. We discuss how young Black activists like Ella Baker, Barbara Johns, and Johnetta Elzie have shaped our understanding of the power of organized action—not just in the Civil Rights Movement but in all forms of political protest. As we face the remainder of Trump's presidency (1423 days, 16 hours, and 44 minutes), it's encouraging to hear about the ways we can resist the fascists and racists, both in small and large ways.
