TALK EASY / PUSHKIN

I want to tell you about another podcast you'll love, Talk Easy with Sam Fragoso.

Talk Easy is a different kind of weekly interview show. Sam offers a space for guests to slow down and share how they arrived at the place they are today and where they hope to go tomorrow.

Rigorously researched and irrepressibly curious, Talk Easy invites artists, writers, and activists to come to the table and speak from the heart in ways you probably haven't heard from them before.

Some of my favorite interviews include talks with Jeff Garlin, Lorde, Nick Offerman, Janelle Monáe, and George Saunders. This season, Sam will sit with folks like Questlove, Alana Haim, Cate Blanchett, Margaret Atwood and more.

Listen to new episodes of Talk Easy with Sam Fragoso, every Sunday: https://talkeasypod.com
