Kate Winslet & Newt the Novelist
Kurt Andersen talks with Kate Winslet about her new movie Carnage, her mastery of playing complicated women, and the challenges of on-screen vomiting. Lalah Hathaway comes to terms with the complicated legacy of her father, the R&B singer and song-writer Donny Hathaway. Plus the illustrator Lou Beach tries his hand at writing super short stories — and we challenge listeners to write their own for our 420-character story contest.
