Today we're sharing a special preview of a podcast we've been enjoying, Talk Easy with Sam Fragoso, from Pushkin Industries. Talk Easy is a weekly interview podcast, where writer Sam Fragoso invites actors, writers, activists, and politicians to come to the table and speak from the heart in ways you probably haven't heard from them before. Driven by curiosity, he has revealing conversations with guests like Michael Lewis, Rupi Kaur, and Dave Eggers. In this preview, Sam talks to Jennifer Egan about the structural pulse of her new novel, The Candy House, why she’s drawn to nonlinear storytelling, and what the book reveals about authenticity in the digital age.
