Alec Baldwin, Linney, Karr
Guest host Alec Baldwin talks with the actor Laura Linney and the writer Mary Karr. From movie roles to Broadway, Linney confesses she’s constantly up against an odd problem: she’s too likeable. The modern memoir owes a lot to Mary Karr, but she’s reluctant to admit her impact on the genre. And a custom greeting card writer explains how he whips up the perfect card for any situation.
