This week, 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 musicians to come to the table and speakfrom the heart in ways you probably haven't heard from them before. Driven by curiosity and an abundance of research, he’s had revealing conversations with everyone from George Saunders and Cate Blanchett to Ocean Vuong and Gloria Steinem. In this preview,Sam talks with author Margaret Atwood about her new essay collection, Burning Questions, the lasting impact of The Handmaid’s Tale, her role in the debate around ‘the writer as political agent’, and the power of poetry.
