We soak in the design of a popular household luxury — the bathtub. Kurt Andersen and record label executive Danny Goldberg explore the intricate machinery of star-making, and we meet the creative workers that help the stars shine. Pianists talk about the joys and frustrations of accompanying, and we visit a factory where the assembly line workers make art. Plus, we hurtle toward the earth with a Hollywood stunt double.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
