Since she reëmerged as a star in the 2024 film “The Substance,” Demi Moore has been very busy. She has a major role in the current season of Taylor Sheridan's “Landman” series, and she has two highly anticipated films coming out this year: a science-fiction film directed by Boots Riley, and “Strange Arrivals,” alongside Colman Domingo, about a couple who claimed to have been abducted by aliens. She sat down at The New Yorker Festival in the fall with the staff writer Jia Tolentino to discuss her varied career and how she has dealt with the pressures of the industry.This episode was recorded live at The New Yorker Festival, on October 25, 2025. New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday. Join host David Remnick as he discusses the latest in politics, news, and current events in conversation with political leaders, newsmakers, innovators, New Yorker staff writers, authors, actors, and musicians.

“Chasing greatness is grieving the person you once were.” Tyriq Withers Ryan, Channing and Fred chop it up with Tyriq Withers, a rising actor making his mark in Hollywood, for an honest conversation about perseverance, processing grief, risk taking and how his journey is proof that purpose doesn't always follow a straight line and what's meant to be will always be. The conversation starts off with a fun story of Tyriq, a Jacksonville native, sharing how his childhood idol was a FAMILIAR guest speaker he had as a kid in elementary school... one guess? And you already know Chan and RC had a field day with the age jokes of Freddy T being that guy 20+ years ago! A die-hard Jaguars fan excited for the playoffs, he also opens up on the special meaning behind wearing a custom made "144" Shedeur Sanders jersey and how the bible verse he had imprinted on the sleeve changed his thought process. Yes, his love of sports starts long ago and before stepping in front of the camera, Tyriq's first love was football as he walked on to Florida State where he was part of the Seminole team (along with Dalvin Cook and Derwin James) that won an Orange Bowl in 2016. Ball was his life and taught him discipline, resilience, and what it takes to perform under pressure. That foundation helped fuel his transition into acting, where he's now making waves starring in the upcoming film Him, along with roles in other notable projects. Tyriq breaks down his journey into acting, the sacrifices it took to chase his passion, and the mental resilience required to survive an industry built on rejection and uncertainty. From navigating auditions and staying grounded to defining success on his own terms, he shares what it really means to pivot when the path isn't guaranteed. He talks about what it was like working with Donald Glover, shares who is on-screen inspiration is and the full circle experience of learning from Marlon Wayans, who he admired growing up and then became a big brother to him during the filming of Him. But Marlon wasn't just an on-screen mentor, he also helped Tyriq navigate life during one of the darkest and difficult times after he lost his older brother unexpectedly and was met with a new wave of grief and responsibility he didn't know existed. Emotional and honest, Tyriq shares how he dealt with it while still being able to pursue his dreams and balance the success with managing deep pain. Pivoting from sports to Hollywood to betting on himself in an industry built on rejection, this episode takes a deep dive on staying grounded while navigating new levels of visibility and expectation. From embracing discomfort to redefining success beyond the scoreboard, this conversation goes deeper than credits and highlights. It's a powerful discussion about identity, faith, work ethic, and trusting the process — on and off the field.

When Superfair curator Sharone Halevy was in high school, success meant fame, money, and Broadway. Looking back, she thinks she may have been blinded by ambition. "I was not a good friend as a kid. I think I was not a good listener. I had friends, obviously, and one of them is still my friend to this day... and I've learned a lot from that friendship over time."In this episode of our series 'Failing Up', Sharone sits down with her high school best friend, actor Jason Gotay, to trace the trajectory of their ideas about success and failure. Jason Gotay is an actor and teaching artist born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. His credits are wide ranging, but to name just a few – he made his Broadway debut in the original company of Bring It On: The Musical and starred in HBO's reboot of Gossip Girl.

Actor, writer, translator, and founder of Bronx World Film Walter Krochmal joins me to talk about his incredible journey, from studying theater on a scholarship in New England, to performing, translating, and building one of New York's most quietly essential film organizations. We discuss how Bronx World Film was born in the basement of Cannes' Short Film Corner, the post World War II European idea of cinema as a tool for social reconstruction, and why Walter believes true festivals must serve both filmmakers and neighborhood audiences, not the cash grab mentality that's overtaken so many indie fests. In the final segment we dive into two unforgettable film moments: Fellini's LA STRADA, which he calls a paragon of empathy and craft, and the timeless comedy of THE NAKED GUN, where Leslie Nielsen's deadpan genius turns “Nice beaver” into a masterclass in visual timing. Films discussed: LA STRADA (1954) and THE NAKED GUN: FROM THE FILES OF POLICE SQUAD! (1988) Guest links: bronxworldfilm.org and Instagram @bronxworldfilm

Actor/comedian and sitcom star Tim Allen drops by for a free-wheeling talk that veers from the unglamorous truths of RV life (yes, waste management) to UFOs, ancient pyramids, and everything we still can't explain. Along the way, he and Bill swap comedy scars – bombing on The Tonight Show, the mystery of timing, and why some jokes are doomed – while touching on Tim's run as TV's ultimate put-upon everyman. Allen also gets personal about 30 years of sobriety, the odd romance between comics and cars, and why private planes are both essential and deeply absurd. Loose, funny, and unexpectedly thoughtful – two veterans dropping the act and just talking.

“In Latin America, we have way more than violence, we're more than salsa as our music, or food, or culture. It's a pleasure and a responsibility to share it with the world.”BBC presenter Nikki Bedi speaks to Mexican actor Diego Calva about his life and career.

One day, when an actor didn't turn up for a college film he was working on, Diego was asked to step in.Since then he's continued to build an impressive international career and has a starring role in the second series of The Night Manager, the acclaimed television drama based on the book by John le Carré.Diego Calva talks about navigating fame, challenging stereotypes, and the power of telling Latin American stories on the global stage.

James DuMont #5Take a walk with me down Fascination Street, as I get to know even more about James DuMont. This is James' FIFTH time on the show; so we don't do a whole deep dive into his past. But we do a little bit of some digging into some of his older stories. In this episode, James shares fun stories about growing up and the moment he realized that something he did could affect the hearts, minds, and emotions of the people around him. Then we get into the importance of storytelling and what it means to be a storyteller. We chat a little about his previous Christmas movie called 'Candy Cane Lane' and even some fun behind the scenes about a project he is working on with his son Kelton. James discusses a recent change up in his representation, and how that is coming along. Finally, we get into his new film 'Hunting Season'; where he stars alongside the iconic Mel Gibson. Hilarious stories of setbacks and growth, plus things he learned on the set of this film. Even after more than 30 years in the industry, it's good to know that James can always learn a new nugget to help him in his career.

In this episode of JJ Meets World, JJ and Tucker talk about recurring anxiety dreams, starting with the classic "actor's nightmare" of being unprepared, missing costumes, or forgetting lines just moments before going on stage. The conversation touches on other stress dreams, including missed obligations and the unsettling experience of returning to high school as an adult who no longer knows the rules, before moving into reflections on memory and nostalgia. They explore the lasting influence of childhood roles like crossing guards, principals, and janitors, the moments of kindness—or silence—that linger for years, and how empathy, regret, teenage relationships, and pop culture memories, such as seeing How the Grinch Stole Christmas as a cast, can become permanently woven into personal history and resurface when you least expect them.

Maggie & John C. Reilly discuss “What's Not to Love?” Mister Romantic's debut album out now on Eternal Magic Recordings is a collection of beloved songs from the American Songbook reimagined by Reilly and his Grammy-winning band. “What's Not To Love?” was recorded in 2024 in Los Angeles at Nest Recorders and was co-produced by Reilly and Davíd Garza. In addition to Garza on piano and guitar, the band also includes Gabe Witcher on violin, Sebastian Steinberg on bass, and Charles De Castro on accordion and cornet.  CREATED BY JOHN C. REILLY“I looked at our weary world a few years ago and tried to think of a way I could spread love and empathy. I decided the most fun way to do that was through performing and singing and telling people I love them…so the emotional vaudeville show Mister Romantic was born, out of both hope and despair.”From studying theater as a kid growing up in Chicago, to amateur clowning as a teen and studying acting at The Theatre School at DePaul University, to his Oscar-nominated role starring in the film adaptation of Chicago and beloved performance starring in Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, to his TONY-nominated performance in Sam Shepard's True West, and more, theater and music have been pillars of John's career. What's Not To Love? is a collection of gorgeous renditions of songs from the Great American Songbook backed by a band of multiple GRAMMY®-winners. On lead single “Dream” Reilly delivers a gentle, dreamy sea-side cover of the 1944 Johnny Mercer song, which has previously been recorded by Frank Sinatra and Roy Orbison.The album was recorded in 2024 in Los Angeles at Nest Recorders and was co-produced by Reilly and Davíd Garza (Fiona Apple, Sharon Van Etten). In addition to Garza on piano and guitar, the band also includes Gabe Witcher on violin (Punch Brothers, Rosanne Cash), Sebastian Steinberg on bass (Fiona Apple, Phoebe Bridgers), and Charles De Castro on accordion and cornet (Keb' Mo'). The 13 tracks include a pair of Irving Berlin songs, a trio of Tom Waits songs and many songs made famous by Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Jo Stafford and more. Reilly and this special band reimagine and re-embrace these beloved tunes and bring them again to another generation.About the Live Show:Prepare to be captivated by the incomparable John C. Reilly in Mister Romantic, a vaudeville show that has already garnered critical acclaim and captured the public's imagination.

What if the greatest untapped tool for human development comes not from tech or science, but from the stage?In this compelling episode, a U.S. Marine-turned-advocate, James Rojas-Taylor, argues that the tools of modern-day acting hold the key to a new kind of literacy: mental and emotional.

Rich and the guys debate how eating holiday popcorn out of a tin can compares to double-dipping chips, and Rich offers up some advice for Seattle Seahawks fans getting nervous about Sam Darnold and their Week 18 showdown with the San Francisco 49ers to determine the NFC West. In ‘Overreaction Tuesday' Rich weighs in on the Rams' dispiriting loss to the Falcons in Week 17, if the Buccaneers should be in the market for a new head coach, Philip Rivers' Hall of Fame chances after his improbable Colts comeback, the pressure on Tom Brady to get the Raiders back to their winning ways of old, Bijan Robinson's chances to win the NFL MVP award during his career, and if we'll see a big name QB (Joe Burrow??

Actor and comedian T.J. Miller explains why a traumatic brain injury is his improvisational "cheat code"—and how a 2010 surgery for an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in his right frontal lobe fueled a career of manic chaos. Miller discusses the "invisible disability" of brain surgery and the high-stakes gamble of a 10% fatality rate. Along the way: a tour of city mottos, from the low-bar honesty of Toledo to the bizarre promise that Auburn, Washington is "more than you imagined." Plus, a look at the "Bulgarian" financial ecosystem of Fort Wayne, Indiana, where a three-bedroom house costs $485 a month.
