    Malcolm Gladwell, Michael Lynton and Joshua Steiner in Conversation: From Mistakes to Meaning

    Join Michael Lynton, former CEO of Sony Entertainment, and Joshua Steiner, former US Treasury Department Chief of Staff, for a conversation with Malcolm Gladwell about transforming failure into discovery — and Lynton and Steiner's new book, From Mistakes to Meaning: Owning Your Past So It Doesn't Own You. We all make mistakes. Longtime friends Michael Lynton and Joshua Steiner made mistakes that shaped their careers and lives, but it wasn't until the isolation of the pandemic that they began to open up to each other about them. When Lynton was the CEO of Sony Entertainment, he greenlit the film that led to the infamous North Korean hack; meanwhile, a private diary Steiner had kept as Chief of Staff at the Treasury Department became a focal point in the Clinton Whitewater scandal. As their conversations deepened and they searched for a book to guide their exploration, they decided to write one themselves. From Mistakes to Meaning themselves is an examination of their own stories and with candid interviews with influential figures such as Joanna Coles and Malcolm Gladwell — unveiling the hidden dimensions of mistakes and the universal struggle to move beyond them. In a candid conversation about how our personalities drive mistakes and how mistakes shape our lives, hear Gladwell, Lynton and Steiner discuss the difference between failures and mistakes, the stages of mistakes, and how it's possible to break the patterns that lead to misunderstandings and shame — turning mistakes into portals for personal growth.

    The Novels of Toni Morrison and Language as Liberation: Kevin Young, Reginald Dwayne Betts, Sasha Bonét, and Honorée Fanonne Jeffers

    Nobel Prize-winning novelist Toni Morrison helped Americans of all races see themselves with radical clarity in modern classics like Sula and Beloved. Her lectures on American literature and racial imagination, now available for the first time, have never been more necessary. Join The New Yorker's poetry editor Kevin Young, novelist Honorée Fanonne Jeffers, writer Sasha Bonét, and poet Reginald Dwayne Betts for a conversation that breaks open the taboos about race in American literature — and a celebration of her new collection, Language as Liberation: Reflections on the American Canon. Drawing a direct line from the Black bodies that built the nation to the Black characters that many of the country's canonical white writers imagined in their work, Morrison's lectures are an antidote to fear and intellectual repression at a time when discussion about race in American literature has become fraught and muted — revealing that liberation is possible through language. In a celebration of the book's launch — and the reissue of her classic oeuvre — don't miss this group of distinguished novelists, poets, and scholars as they step inside the classroom with Morrison to revel in her singular brilliance — cracking the code of America's deepest fears, longings, and hopes for collective liberation.

    Michael Douglas with TCM's Alicia Malone: Wall Street (1987)

    Michael Douglas embodied the ruthless extremes of 1980s capitalism with his Oscar-winning portrayal of investor Gordon Gekko, the coldly calculating corporate raider who takes eager young stockbroker Bud Fox (Charlie Sheen) under his wing. "There's no nobility in poverty anymore," Bud tells his working-class dad (real-life father Martin Sheen), before embarking on a series of ethical compromises in the pursuit of quick wealth, adding an art-savvy interior designer (Daryl Hannah) to his portfolio along the way. Writer-director Oliver Stone was inspired by his own father, a longtime Wall St. broker, and several real-world financiers when he delivered this sharply critical cautionary tale, which photographs the rarified air of lower Manhattan in amber-tinted, smoke-stained hues. But the film's enduring image is that of Douglas's steely-eyed Gekko, who hungrily consumes businesses — as well as his friends and rivals — like platefuls of blood-red steak tartare.

    Governor Josh Shapiro with Gayle King: Where We Keep the Light

    Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro joins us for a conversation about the intersection of public service, personal faith, and Jewish values — and his new memoir, Where We Keep the Light: Stories from a Life of Service. From an early age, Josh Shapiro learned and practiced the power of showing up, listening, and working to make peoples' lives a little better. And as Governor of Pennsylvania, he's delivered. Reflecting on what he's learned by knocking on doors, serving his community, and tackling the tough issues we face, Where We Keep the Light is Shapiro's testament to how the Jewish values instilled in him as a young man have shaped his life and career in public service. In a candid conversation celebrating the book's launch, hear Shapiro discuss his political, spiritual, and personal journey — how he's combatting political violence and hate in Pennsylvania, why we need leaders who are willing to bring people together and deliver results, why he believes there's more that unites us than divides us as Americans, his take on the future of the Democratic Party, and much more.

Diving deep into Trump's secrets and psyche and drawing on over a decade of incisive coverage of Trump's impact (including extensive interviews with Jeffrey Epstein), they ask to what lengths will the President go in his attempt to secure a third term?

In a candid conversation, hear about the making of the special — how she took a 16,000-word note on her phone and turned it into comic gold, how her act has changed since she broke out in her 20s, stories from her life in comedy, and more.

    Ethan Hawke in Conversation with Annette Insdorf: Blue Moon

    Moderator Annette Insdorf will interview Ethan Hawke about his new film, Blue Moon. The prolific actor, writer, director and musician offers a tour-de-force performance as the acerbic lyricist Lorenz Hart, whose songs include "My Funny Valentine," "The Lady Is a Tramp," and "Blue Moon." In addition to Hawke's Oscar-nominated performance opposite Denzel Washington in Training Day (2001), he is perhaps best known for indie collaborations with Richard Linklater on Boyhood (2014), Waking Life (2001), and the BEFORE trilogy (1995, 2004, 2013) – which he scripted with the director and co-star Julie Delpy. Among his other memorable films are First Reformed (2017), Born to Be Blue (2015), Good Kill (2014), Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007), Hamlet (2000), Gattaca (1997), and Dead Poets Society (1989). He has also directed both fiction and documentary, such as Wildcat (2023), The Last Movie Stars (2022), Blaze (2018), and Seymour: An Introduction (2006). From a brilliant screenplay by Robert Kaplow, Linklater elicits Hawke's greatest performance yet — incarnating the self-destructive Hart on the very night that his collaborator Richard Rodgers (Andrew Scott) has just opened Oklahoma! on Broadway with new partner Oscar Hammerstein II. Co-starring Bobby Cannavale and Margaret Qualley, Blue Moon is a revelation of Hawke's maturation as an artist.
