    The Worst Oscars Ever?? with Michael Schulman

    What do Lily Tomlin, Snow White, and Kenny Ortega have in common? They were all part of the 61st Academy Awards, a broadcast now remembered as the worst of all time, and masterminded by Allan Carr (lover of spectacle and producer of Grease). But awards season correspondent and New Yorker staff writer Michael Schulman is here to argue that the tackiest, most disastrous Oscars of all time might just be... unfairly maligned. And to tell us what's bringing you joy and excitement right now, send...

    Emotional Labor with Rachel Monroe and Ash Compton of Bad Therapist

    What is "emotional labor," and why is it probably not what your boyfriend accuses you of making him do when you want him to go to Ikea with you? Psychotherapist Ash Compton and journalist Rachel Monroe are here to tell the tale of how the term sociologist Arlie Russell Hochschild coined—in her 1983 book The Managed Heart—has come to mean, well, almost everything. How is the term still useful? How can we use therapy language as a tool for growth or an excuse for avoiding it? And whose job is i...

    Alice Kyteler and the First Witchcraft Trial in Ireland with Molly Aitken

    In County Kilkenny, Ireland, in an early year of a century not too long before our own, Alice Kyteler was accused of witchcraft. But the story doesn't end there. This week, Molly Aitken—author of BRIGHT I BURN—is here to tell us a tale where the more things* change, the more they stay the same.

    The I Hate to Cook Book with Sarah Archer (or, how to feed yourself and your loved ones even when everything is terrible)

    This week, kitchen cabinet member Sarah Archer is back to discuss Peg Bracken's 1960 masterpiece, The I Hate to Cook Book--a massive bestseller of the era that has just a little bit more to say about the housewife's role in society than it does about dinner. Also discussed: recipes including Portland Pilaff, Sweep Steak, and Maxey's Franks; whether creamed corn is a normal pantry item; Julia Child; tuna noodle casserole; a passionate defense of soup and dip mix recipes; and the perennial question: Am I the only one who's this depressed? (You're not. We're here.) It's a hands across the pantry episode. Thank you so much for being here this month. Thank you for feeding yourself today. Love, Sarah and the gang

    Aron Ralston with Blair Braverman

Today, our survival correspondent Blair Braverman is here to tell us the tale of the man, the myth, and the multitool.

    Santa Claus with Sarah Archer

    'Twas (the night before) the night before Christmas/ And all through the show/ We await Sarah Archer with eyes all aglow/ To blow the dust off some old books from the shelf/ And tell us the tale of a jolly old elf. Where did he come from?/ Where is he going?/ We know you have questions/ So bundle up, if it's snowing/ And sing out your favorite holiday song/ (As ever, it was capitalism all along.)
