New Yorker staff writer Burkhard Bilger doesn't have great teeth. According to Bilger, his “gaptoothed grin” makes him look like he came from a bar fight or a remake of “Deliverance.” Given his lousy dental insurance, a friend recommended that Bilger head to Mexico's “Molar City,” Los Algodones, a place that has the highest per capita concentration of dentists in the world, to get his teeth fixed. Medical tourism is nothing new, but few think of going abroad for their teeth. Yet most Americans have inadequate dental insurance and the system is geared to abandon you just when you need it the most. We talk to Bilger and dental professionals about why dental care does not get the respect, or coverage, that it deserves. Guests: Burkhard Bilger, journalist and staff writer, New Yorker Magazine; Bilger is the author of "Fatherland" and "Noodling Flatheads" - his most recent piece for the New Yorker was titled "Word of Mouth: A Pilgrimage to Mexico's Molar City" Dr. Lisa Simon, physician, dentist and health researcher; Dr. Simon is also an assistant professor of medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School Learn more about your ad choices.

Meg Wolitzerpresents three stories featured in the anthology A Century of Fiction in the New Yorker.The magazine celebrates its 100th birthday, and this is the second of two programs this season in which we join the party. Robert Coover's “Going for a Beer” begins with a date and a drink, but you'll be surprised where it ends up. The reader is SELECTED SHORTS' late founder and host, Isaiah Sheffer. Cynthia Ozick's moving story “The Shawl” pulls grace from the worst of circumstances in a powerful reading by Lois Smith. And V.S. Pritchett turns a ladder into a sly symbol of marital discord in our third tale. “The Ladder” is performed by Cynthia Nixon.

Work on "The Spinach King" started in the early 1980s when John Seabrook was with the New Yorker Magazine. John Seabrook says: "I had a grandfather who was a champion of white supremacy, a true believer in the superiority of the Nordic Christian male." Learn more about your ad choices.

The New Yorker turns one century old -- and it hasn't aged a day! The witty, cosmopolitan magazine was first published on February 21, 1925. And even though present-day issues are often quite contemporary in content, the magazine's tone and style still recall its glamorous Jazz Age origins.The New Yorker traces itself to members of that legendary group of wits known as the Algonquin Round Table -- renowned artists, critics and playwrights who met every day for lunch at the Algonquin Hotel.And in particular, to two married journalists – Harold Ross and Jane Grant – who infused the magazine with a very distinct cosmopolitan zest. High fashion, martinis and Midtown Manhattan mixed with the droll wit of a worldly literati.A new exhibition at the New York Public Library -- “A Century of the New Yorker” -- chronicles the magazine's history, from its origins and creation by Harold Ross and Jane Grant to its current era, under the editorship of David Remnick.Greg and Tom interview the show's two curators Julie Golia and Julie Carlsen about the treasures on display from the New Yorker's glorious past -- from the magazine's first cover (featuring everybody's favorite snob Eustace Tilly) to artifacts and manuscripts from the world's greatest writers.Visit the website for more information and other Bowery Boys podcastsThis episode was edited by Kieran Gannon

Since 1978, when her very first cartoon appeared in The New Yorker Magazine, Roz Chast has been chronicling modern life's anxieties and absurdities. Neurotic characters with frizzy hair and mouths agape sit on sofas or walk along New York sidewalks worrying, observing, and making us laugh. Her more than a dozen books include Can't We Talk about Something More Pleasant?, a memoir about her parents aging, and a collaboration with Steve Martin called The Alphabet from A to Y with Bonus Letter Z!. On November 2, 2023 Chast came to The Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to share stories from her newest book, I Must Be Dreaming.
Pete Hegseth's Pentagon nomination may not survive new investigative reporting by the New Yorker Magazine, detailing years of financial and personal misconduct, and sexual impropriety and misconduct when he led 2 veterans' groups, reporting so bad that even his lawyer has started to distance himself from Hegseth, as the Trump Transition team lets it be known that they are “pissed” at Hegseth. Michael Popok predicts that it is likely that Hegseth pulls his own nomination a la Gaetz, and Trump is likely regretting giving the media so much time to “vet” his candidates.
