Beloved author Susan Orlean discusses her new book Joyride, a masterful memoir of finding her creative calling and purpose that invites us to approach life with wonder, curiosity, and an irrepressible sense of delight. Orlean is interviewed by journalist Chris Borrelli. This conversation originally took place October 24, 2025 and was recorded live at the American Writers Museum. We hope you enjoy entering the Mind of a Writer. AWM PODCAST NETWORK HUB More about Joyride: "The story of my life is the story of my stories," writes Susan Orlean in this extraordinary, era-defining memoir from one of the greatest practitioners of narrative nonfiction of our time. Joyride is a magic carpet ride through Orlean's life and career, where every day is an opportunity for discovery and every moment holds the potential for wonder. Throughout her storied career, her curiosity draws her to explore the most ordinary and extraordinary of places, from going deep inside the head of a regular ten-year-old boy for a legendary profile ("The American Man Age Ten") to reporting on a woman who owns twenty-seven tigers, from capturing the routine magic of Saturday night to climbing Mt. Fuji. Not only does Orlean's account of a writing life offer a trove of indispensable gleanings for writers, it's also an essential and practical guide to embracing any creative path. She takes us through her process of dreaming up ideas, managing deadlines, connecting with sources, chasing every possible lead, confronting writer's block and self-doubt, and crafting the perfect lede—a Susan specialty. While Orlean has always written her way into other people's lives in order to understand the human experience, Joyride is her most personal book ever—a searching journey through finding her feet as a journalist, recovering from the excruciating collapse of her first marriage, falling head-over-heels in love again, becoming a mother while mourning the decline of her own mother, sojourning to Hollywood for films based on her work including Adaptation and Blue Crush, and confronting mortality. Joyride is also a time machine to a bygone era of journalism, from Orlean's bright start in the golden age of alt-weeklies to her career-making days working alongside icons such as Robert Gottlieb, Tina Brown, David Remnick, Anna Wintour, Sonny Mehta, and Jonathan Karp—forces who shaped the media industry as we know it today. Infused with Orlean's signature warmth and wit, Joyride is a must-read for anyone who hungers to start, build, and sustain a creative life. Orlean inspires us to seek out daily inspiration and rediscover the marvels that surround us. SUSAN ORLEAN has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 1992. She is the New York Times bestselling author of seven books, including The Library Book, Rin Tin Tin, Saturday Night, and The Orchid Thief, which was made into the Academy Award–winning film Adaptation. She lives with her family and her animals in Los Angeles and may be reached at SusanOrlean.com and on Substack at SusanOrlean.Substack.com. CHRIS BORRELLI is a longtime features writer at the Chicago Tribune and a Nieman fellow at Harvard University. His subjects have included endangered species and Godzilla and hand dryer technology and low-wage restaurant work and prop warehouses and accordion-shop owners and comedy writers and existential threat. He's a militant Rhode Islander and a Chicago resident.

Is money the root of all evil? Or does it change happiness to despair simply by existing? Booth Tarkington, today on The Classic Tales Podcast. Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast.

Go to http://classictalesaudiobooks.com and become a supporter today. This summer we are showcasing short stories that have been nominated for the O. Henry Memorial Award from 1919-1923. Booth Tarkington won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction twice. Once in 1919 for his novel The Magnificent Ambersons, and also in 1923 for Alice Adams. He was well-known and prolific, penning many best-selling novels including Penrod and Seventeen. He was also an illustrator, playwright and politician, serving one term in 1905 in the Indiana House of Representatives. In the 1910s and 1920s, Tarkington was regarded as “the most important and lasting writer in his generation”. By the end of the 20th Century, however, he had been completely ignored by academia, and in 2019 he was described by Robert Gottlieb as “America's most distinguished hack”. Apparently, Tarkington's penchant for glorifying the past, going beyond typical nostalgia, rubbed the modern academicians the wrong way. I think it might be time we give him another chance. And now, “The One Hundred Dollar Bill”, by Booth Tarkington.

Join biographer Julie Phillips for Jӓgerschnitzel as we discuss why she called The Baby on the Fire Escape "a weird hybrid monster of a book," the one thing she regrets not researching more thoroughly for her Tiptree bio, the reason there's more space for the reader in a biography than a memoir, why some children of artistic mothers can make peace with their relationships and others can't, the three things she felt it important to squeeze into the seven minutes she was given to speak at Ursula K. Le Guin's memorial service, her writing method of starting in the middle of a book and working out toward both ends, the occasional difficulty of withholding judgement on one's biographical subjects, the relationship between biographer Robert Caro and editor Robert Gottlieb, plus much more.

“It doesn't have to be good, it just has to happen” - Seth Godin, The Practice“F*ck it, I feel like sh*t” - Jess LaheyHi everyone! Jess here. We actually managed to get Sarina, Jennie, KJ and Jess together for an episode even though Jess and KJ have been under the weather. All December and January, the group text thread has been moaning and groaning about feeling awful and needing to work but feeling awful. So what do you do when you are not at your physical or mental peak and working becomes more difficult? Do you push on through and grind it out? Sometimes. Do you close the computer and recline in your bed with your hot tea and tissues? Sometimes. Here are our thoughts on working when under the weather. #AmReadingJennie * Turn Every Page: The Adventures of Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb documentary * Avid Reader: A Life by Robert GottliebJess * Also a Poet: Frank O'Hara, My Father, and Me by Ada Calhoun* Why We Can't Sleep: Women's New Midlife Crisis by Ada CalhounWhile we have your attention, we'd love our listeners and readers to help out the Institute for Independent Journalists Foundation in their work, “…to track the demographics of the nearly 3,000 journalists laid off in 2023, and to understand the implications for our field” by taking this census.

On an Upper Byrdcliffe Road walk in Woodstock this past summer, I noted to my friends, Perry Beekman and David Gordon, the recent death of Robert Gottlieb, the most acclaimed book editor of the last 50+ years. I've previously mentioned on the podcast, Gottlieb's really great memoir, Avid Reader. David noted that writer Cormac McCarthy had also then recently died. David expressed enthusiasm for McCarthy's great works over the years. I had read McCarthy's Pulitzer Prize winning masterpiece, The Road, many years prior and I still get a chill in my bones when I think about it. I asked David whether he would like to come on the podcast to commemorate Cormac McCarthy and to talk about The Road, and the rest of McCarthys great works. And here we are. Published in 2006, The Road is a dystopian, post-apocalyptic and frightening warning, but it's also a story of the love between a father and a son and of the lengths to which a father might travel for his son, literally and figuratively. It's emotional, chilling and also beautifully written.
"All of this stuff is predicated and decided by people who are petty and upset with each other over the smallest differences" Show Notes Andrew and Austin discuss various movies they have recently seen, including "Oppenheimer" and "Barbie."

They also touch upon the decision to drop the bomb on Japan and the long-lasting impact on the affected areas. They then shift their conversation to the Mission Impossible movie franchise, discussing their favorite moments and ranking the films. They also discuss other movies they have watched, including "Interstellar" and "Shortcuts." The conversation concludes with a discussion on horror movies and recent movie experiences. The Things We Had To Say Discussion of the movie "Oppenheimer" and its historical context Appreciation for the nuanced portrayal of historical events in "Oppenheimer" Discussion of the impact and complexities of the nuclear bomb and firebombing during World War II Excitement for upcoming movies based on popular toys Thoughts on the Barbie movie and its reception Discussion of the Blue Beetle movie and its exclusive IMAX release Disappointment with the focus of "Oppenheimer" Discussion of the Mission Impossible movie franchise and ranking the films Thoughts on Tom Cruise's dedication to the franchise Discussion of other movies watched, including "Interstellar" and "Shortcuts" Discussion of filmmaker Robert Altman's movies and desire to watch more Recommendation and discussion of the horror movie "Talk to Me" Thoughts on trailers before movies and animated movies in general Discussion of Robert Downey Jr.'s transition to more serious acting Mention of documentaries watched, including one about Robert Gottlieb and Robert Caro Discussion of the documentary "Oppenheimer" and Robert Caro's book "The Power Broker" Get early access, exclusive content, and so much more!

Diane wanted to share a special conversation from the archives, an interview with legendary book editor Robert Gottlieb, who died in June at age 92. Gottlieb worked with many of the best-known writers of the 20th century. On the list of names whose work he made shine was Diane Rehm. Diane remembers him as a masterful editor who was so kind to her – someone with name recognition in the world of public radio, but no track record as a writer. Gottlieb became one of Diane's closest friends and confidantes. She says, “he was a genius,” and she was so lucky to have him by her side. Robert Gottlieb joined Diane several times as a guest on the Diane Rehm Show over the years. This is their conversation from September 2016 in which he discussed his memoir, “Avid Reader.”
In today's episode, we bring you a Q&A with the filmmaker Lizzie Gottlieb and her father, the legendary New York writer and editor Robert Gottlieb, following the U.S. theatrical premiere screening of Lizzie's documentary TURN EVERY PAGE: THE ADVENTURES OF ROBERT CARO AND ROBERT GOTTLIEB on December 30, 2022. TURN EVERY PAGE is a portrait of the literary partnership between Pulitzer Prize-winning author Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb, the former editor in chief at Knopf and The New Yorker. Robert Gottlieb recently passed away at the age of 92. Gottlieb was a good friend of Film Forum, introducing and presenting many classic films here over the years, and in tribute to his memory, we're presenting four encore screenings of TURN EVERY PAGE at the theater on June 28 and 29, and posting this previously unreleased Q&A. Special thanks to Lizzie Gottlieb, Jennifer Small, Joanne Nerenberg, Sony Pictures Classics and Falco Ink for making this event possible.
The lasting legacies of Cormac McCarthy and editor Robert Gottlieb, and we talk to author Kathryn Bromwich about her debut novel, At the Edge of the Woods.
Avid Reader: A Life by Robert Gottlieb (2016)
Recently, two giants of modern American literature died within a single day of each other. Gilbert Cruz talks with Dwight Garner about the work of Cormac McCarthy's work, and with Pamela Paul and Emily Eakin about the life and legacy of Robert Gottlieb.
Gottlieb, who died last week at age 92, edited Joseph Heller, Toni Morrison, John le Carré and, for more than 50 years, Robert Caro. He went on to become editor of The New Yorker. We'll listen to our recent interview with Gottlieb, and we'll hear some of our interview recorded in 2000 with Gottlieb and musical theater expert Robert Kimball. They co-authored a book on some of the best lyricists of the last century.Book critic Maureen Corrigan reviews Brandon Taylor's, The Late Americans, and Andre Dubus III's novel, Such Kindness.
SCARLET SUMMER kicks off Independence Day weekend! Nathaniel Hawthorne's birthday is July 4th, so we consider it an auspicious start for our summer-long readalong. Our website has a new page, https://www.bookcougars.com/scarletsummer2023, where you can find all the info about SCARLET SUMMER, including a link to download your BINGO! card. As Emily noted in the episode, at least one reader is already making “witchy substitutions” on her card. We listed each of the three readalong books three times to make it easy to win, but feel free to swap out any of the repeat squares for other witch-related or Hawthorne or Albanese or Hoffman books. We are both making progress on our #BigBookSummer reads (DEVIL IN THE GROVE and ULYSSES) and we've read a few fun/interesting/thought-provoking books including: —EVEN THOUGH I KNEW THE END by C.L. Polk (https://bookshop.org/a/17535/9781250849458) —THE WHISPERS by Ashley Audrain (https://bookshop.org/a/17535/9781984881694) —THOUGHTS FROM THE OAK by Audrey Colasanti (https://bookshop.org/a/17535/9781913606602) —GRACELAND by Nancy Crochiere (https://bookshop.org/a/17535/9780063288430) In Biblio Adventures we recap our day in Newport, Rhode Island visiting the Redwood Library & Athenaeum, the Newport Public Library, and Charter Books where we attended their event with Claire Fuller for her new novel, THE MEMORY OF ANIMALS. (https://bookshop.org/a/17535/9781953534873) Chris watched the documentary Turn Every Page: The Adventures of Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb about their decades-long writer/editor relationship. We recorded this episode in the early afternoon of June 21st and were deeply saddened when news broke later in the day of Gottlieb's death. Emily had a lovely trip to Manhattan to visit Aunt Ellen who is back on the East Coast for a visit. They went to P&T Knitwear Books (which has a podcast studio you can reserve for free) and Sweet Pickle Books (where you can trade books for pickles!). Our Author Spotlight features a conversation with Bethanne Patrick discussing her memoir LIFE B: OVERCOMING DOUBLE DEPRESSION. (https://bookshop.org/a/17535/9781640091290) As always, thank you for listening and we wish you lots of Happy Reading! Emily & Chris
This week's Nose thinks that a semicolon is worth fighting a civil war about. Turn Every Page: The Adventures of Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb is a 2022 documentary directed by Lizzie Gottlieb. We decided late Monday or early Tuesday — kind of randomly, to be honest — that we wanted to talk about this movie this week. And then Robert Gottlieb died on Wednesday. The Nose feels vaguely, cosmically responsible. On the other hand, we're glad we get to talk about Gottlieb at length this hour. And: “The Binge Purge” is a nearly 6,000-word New York magazine feature on TV's broken streaming model and what the hell Hollywood can possibly do about it. The Nose has thoughts. Some other stuff that happened this week, give or take: Cormac McCarthy, Novelist of a Darker America, Is Dead at 89 “All the Pretty Horses,” “The Road” and “No Country for Old Men” were among his acclaimed books that explore a bleak world of violence and outsiders. Glenda Jackson, Oscar-Winning Actress Turned Politician, Dies at 87 She walked away from a successful acting career to enter the British Parliament, before returning to the stage as the title character in an acclaimed “King Lear.” Treat Williams, Actor Known for ‘Hair' and ‘Everwood,' Dies at 71 His many other roles included a detective turned informant in “Prince of the City.” He was killed in a motorcycle accident in Vermont. Pat Sajak, host of ‘Wheel of Fortune,' says 41st season will be his last 10 of the Most Valuable Cassette Tapes From the ‘80s and ‘90s The Startling Intimacy of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour Even addressing a stadium of seventy thousand people, the singer seems to be speaking directly to you, confessing something urgent.

Erin and Paul review the Adam Sandler basketball flick HUSTLE, the Nan Goldin documentary ALL THE BEAUTY AND THE BLOODSHED, the word-of-mouth animated hit PUSS IN BOOTS: THE LAST WISH, the documentaries FIRE OF LOVE and TURN EVERY PAGE: THE ADVENTURES OF ROBERT CARO AND ROBERT GOTTLIEB, the Irish Oscar nominee THE QUIET GIRL, and the intersectional courtroom drama SAINT OMER.
Over the last year, The Nose has covered 14 of this year's Academy Award-nominated movies, encompassing 64 nominations. So on this special edition of The Nose, we look back at our discussions of nominated movies, and we look ahead to Sunday's Oscars ceremony with film and television star (and Oscars voter) Illeana Douglas. Some of the movies covered include: The Banshees of Inisherin, Elvis, Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Fabelmans, Tár, Top Gun: Maverick, Triangle of Sadness, Turn Every Page: The Adventures of Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb, The Whale, Women Talking, and more. Note: This special two-part Oscars season finale edition of The Nose, airing over two days on the radio, is presented here as one double-length (or so) episode. Some other stuff that happened this week, give or take: Tom Sizemore, Intense Actor With a Troubled Life, Dies at 61 He earned praise for his work in films like “Saving Private Ryan” and “Black Hawk Down.” He also served prison time for drug possession and domestic abuse. Robert Blake, ‘Baretta' Star Acquitted in Wife's Murder, Dies at 89 His film and TV career began with “Our Gang” comedies and was highlighted by his performance as a killer in “In Cold Blood.” But he led a tempestuous life. Topol, Star of ‘Fiddler on the Roof' Onscreen and Onstage, Dies at 87 Wide acclaim for his portrayal of Tevye helped make him, according to one newspaper, “Israel's most famous export since the Jaffa orange.” Ricou Browning, Who Made the Black Lagoon Scary, Dies at 93 He helped bring “Flipper” to the movies and TV but was best known for his plunge in a monster suit in “Creature From the Black Lagoon.” This is the most populist Oscars in a long time So why doesn't it feel like it? The Stunt Awards Vulture's inaugural celebration of stunt professionals is here. Because if the Oscars won't recognize them, we will. Who Are You Rooting Against at the Oscars This Year? And the Oscar Goes to…The Guy Who Inspired Big League Chew? Todd Field is the Oscar-nominated director of ‘Tár.' Major League Baseball players are more familiar with his shredded bubble gum.

We're thrilled to share our next Trailblazer episode this week—we had a great time talking with Catherine Coulter about her place in romance history as one of the earliest authors of the Signet Regency line—and the author who many believe revolutionized the Regency…by making them sexy. She tells a million great stories here, and we talk about writing historical romance, about sex in romance, about the way she thinks about plot vs. story, about the way she's evolved as a writer, and about revisiting her old books. All that, and Catherine has a lot to say about heroes. Thank you to Catherine Coulter for making the time for us.Next week, we're back with more interstitials, but our first read along of 2023 is Tracy MacNish's Stealing Midnight—we've heard the calls from our gothic romance readers and we're delivering with this truly bananas story, in which the hero is dug out of a grave and delivered, barely alive, to the heroine. Get ready. You can find Stealing Midnight (for $1.99!) at Amazon, B&N, Kobo, or Apple Books.Show NotesPeople Mentioned: publisher Peter Heggie, editor Robert Gottlieb, publisher Bob Diforio, publisher Phyllis Graham, editor May Chen, editor David Highfill, and marketing consultant Nicole Robson at Trident Media.

This agenda-setting book presents a framework for creating a more just and equitable care-centered world. Climate change, pandemic events, systemic racism, and deep inequalities have all underscored the centrality of care in our lives. Yet care work is, for the most part, undervalued and exploited. In Care-Centered Politics: From the Home to the Planet (MIT Press, 2022), Robert Gottlieb examines how a care economy and care politics can influence and remake health, climate, and environmental policy, as well as the institutions and practices of daily life. He shows how, through this care-centered politics, we can build an ethics of care and a society of cooperation, sharing, and solidarity. Arguing that care is a form of labor, Gottlieb expands the ways we think about home care, child care, elder care, and other care relationships. He links them to the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, immigration, and the militarization of daily life. He also provides perspective on the events of 2020 and 2021 (including the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and movements calling attention to racism and inequality) as they relate to a care politics. Care, says Gottlieb, must be universal--whether healthcare for all, care for the earth, care at work, or care for the household, shared equally by men and women. Care-centered politics is about strategic and structural reforms that imply radical and revolutionary change. Gottlieb offers a practical, mindful, yet also utopian, politics of daily life.

Our Trailblazer episodes continue this week with Jude Deveraux, an early historical romance author who broke several publishing barriers over her more than forty year career. In this episode, we talk about her journey through the Wild West of romance in the late 1970s, her publishing career at Avon Books, Pocket Books and Ballantine. We talk about the judgement and misogyny that circles romance, the buying power of readers, and the way the genre and bookselling has changed. We also talk about her writing process, and what it's like to be Jude Deveraux. This one is a real joy for us, as we wouldn't be the readers or writers we are without Jude Deveraux. This episode is sponsored by Avon Books, publisher of Joanna Shupe's The Bride Goes Rogue, and Amazon's Kindle Vella, publisher of Eloisa James's The Seduction Series. Our next read along is Virginia Henley's The Dragon and the Jewel, a deep cut from Sarah's childhood. Check your content warnings and remember this one is from 1991, so we don't even know, honestly. We're flying without a net here. Get it at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple, Kobo or your local indie.Show NotesLike many of our trailblazers, Jude Deveraux's first brush with romance was Kathleen E Woodiwiss's The Flame & the Flower. The publisher with “the prettiest covers” in the 1970s she references was Woodiwiss's publisher, Avon Books. Books of Jude Deveraux's that we talk about in depth include: The Enchanted Land (her debut novel), A Knight in Shining Armor (early time-travel romance), Sweet Liar, The Providence Falls series with Tara Sheets, The Girl from Summer Hill, Twin of Ice (the twins!!), and “The Matchmakers” a short story in The Invitation collection (featuring Cale & the angel sex scene).The Four Js were Jude Deveraux, Julie Garwood, Johanna Lindsey and Judith McNaught.People mentioned in the episode: Kate Duffy, editor at Silhouette Books and Pocket Books; Joan Schulhafer, publicist at Pocket Books; Richard Gallen, publisher & packager; Ronald Busch, publisher of Pocket Books; Robert Gottlieb, agent; Linda Marrow, editor at Ballantine/Doubleday/Dell; Kathryn Falk, publisher of Romantic Times Magazine; Kathe Robin, reviewer at Romantic Times Magazine.
