Ece Temelkuran on How to Save Democracy

Just a decade ago, Ece Temelkuran was recognized as the most-read political columnist in Turkey, then a thriving secular democracy. Today, she no longer lives in Turkey and her homeland is on the knife’s edge of dictatorship under the rule of President Erdogan. Temelkuran, author of the new book How to Lose a Country: The 7 Steps from Democracy to Dictatorship, spoke with Tina about what other challenged democracies can learn from the loss of liberty in Turkey and how to recognize the common playbook in the rise of many populist leaders. She says neither anger nor laughter are shelters in the storm of authoritarianism and that lies have become permissible because we have lost all sense of shame.

Bruna Papandrea with More Big Little Lies

Bruna Papandrea is known for getting things done in Hollywood. With almost two dozen films and TV series in the works with her production company Made Up Stories, Papandrea is currently riding the Monterey waves of her latest release: season two of the smash hit HBO series Big Little Lies. The new season reunites the award-winning female ensemble cast and ups the ante with the addition of the all-powerful Meryl Streep. Streep plays Celeste's (Nicole Kidman) mother-in-law who comes to town seeking answers about the death of her son and testing the pact of secrecy made by the five women who know how he was killed--and who did it. Papandrea, who joined with Reese Witherspoon to produce the hit films Gone Girl and Wild, also talks about what she learned from working with Hollywood legends Sydney Pollack and Anthony Minghella, and why more women need to be given the creative keys to the kingdom in the entertainment industry.

Ian Schrager: From the King of Clubs to the Ace of Hotels

Tina talks with her friend Ian Schrager, who will forever be known for co-founding Studio 54, the nightclub that set the standard for all time for New York nightlife and celebrity and left thousands of people cursing its velvet rope. Unless, of course, you got in. In the decades since, Schrager has proved he can make lightning strike again by reinventing himself as a spectacularly successful hotelier. Reigning over a string of hip boutique hotels from London to LA, Schrager has upped his game in recent years by recasting luxury in a more affordable mode and bringing back cool, if not disco, to a gentrified Times Square. He also talks with Tina about the epic Vanity Fair bash they threw together, why he was never the life of the party, and why his home life beats life in a swanky hotel any day.

Adam Gopnik Wants to Make Liberalism Great Again!

Adam Gopnik, the celebrated New Yorker writer whom Tina worked with for many years when she was editor in chief, talks with her about his new book, A Thousand Small Sanities, born of a talk he had with his teenage daughter on the night President Trump was elected. In the book, Gopnik posits that it is not radical revolution that brings about stable, pluralistic nations but the daily small sanities which flow from, among other liberal principles, the ideals of thriving public education and a permanent commitment to reform. He credits such forces as the culture-poking premises of some American TV sitcoms as agents of sane, cumulative political change. Gopnik also shares with his former editor how the assignment she gave him years ago––a posting in Paris—changed his outlook on the world.

Andrew Gillum: Rising Democratic Star

Andrew Gillum says he has gone through all the stages of grief after coming within less than half a percentage point--a round error margin as he points out--of becoming the first black governor of Florida. Now, he’s off to the next race. But instead of joining the crowded field of Democratic presidential candidates, Gillum is going back to political organizing with the goal of delivering Florida’s key 29 electoral votes go to a Democrat in 2020. Gillum spoke with Tina about why Florida voters deserve more love from both political parties, what billionaire Tom Steyer should do with his money instead of backing impeachment and why Gillum is finally taking his wife on that long-promised vacation.

Dr. Jennifer Ashton on Life after Suicide

Dr. Jennifer Ashton, the chief medical correspondent for ABC News and a prominent physician with a private practice, has made a career of explaining difficult medical issues to her patients and viewers. Now, she has written a book about a trauma in her own life and the lives of 47,000 other families who lose a loved one to suicide each year. The book is called Life After Suicide: Finding Courage, Comfort and Community after Unthinkable Loss. Dr. Ashton wrote the book after her ex-husband, Robert, a 52-year-old thoracic surgeon, jumped to his death from the George Washington Bridge in 2017. Dr. Ashton talks with Tina about how she and her children are working to move forward in their lives, the proper way for journalists to report on these kinds of deaths, and why we all need to get comfortable with the discomfort of talking about suicide.

Chris Christie Loud and Clear

Chris Christie is a boisterous, larger-than-life politician who served two terms as governor of New Jersey and briefly ran for president in 2016 before dropping out of the primaries and being the first prominent Republican to back Donald Trump. But when Trump won, he essentially threw Christie overboard, passing him over for the two jobs in the administration he coveted: Vice-President and Attorney General. Sitting on the political bench at age 56 and now an ABC News contributor, Christie has written a book called Let Me Finish: Trump, the Kushners, Bannon, New Jersey, and the Power of In-Your-Face Politics. Christie joins Tina to talk candidly about what the Mueller report means for Trump, the president’s extraordinary self-preservation instincts and why hiring family members is a very bad idea.
