On September 8, Canadian singer-songwriter Allison Russell released The Returner, the follow-up to her critically acclaimed solo debut, Outside Child. She stops by our studios to preview the album and perform a live song.

[REBROADCAST FROM ] Three-time Emmy winner Alex Borstein joins us to discuss her role as Susie Myerson in “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” filming the final season and her musical comedy special, “Alex Borstein: Corsets & Clown Suits,” out now on Prime Video.

[REBROADCAST FROM ] The film "Nanny" from writer and director Nikyatu Jusu won the top prize at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival. Jusu joins us to discuss the film, which combines elements of African folklore with horror to tell the story of a Senegalese immigrant hired to care for a white child. 

[REBROADCAST FROM November 2, 2023] Based on a true story… sort of, "The Persian Version" tells the story of an Iranian-American screenwriter, Leila, who discovers a family secret while rebelling against her mother's expectations for her. Writer and director Maryam Keshavarz joins us to discuss the film.
[REBROADCAST FROM January 18, 2024] Bettye LaVette recorded her first single at the age of sixteen and soon made her debut on the R&B charts in the early 1960s. Six decades later, now in her late 70s, she's still singing, with her latest album LaVette! which was nominated for the Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues Album. She joins us for a Listening Party.
