The Fresh Air Weekend show is a must-listen for those who love interviews and reviews. This weekend, the show features some of the best from the past week, as well as new program elements designed for weekend listening. The focus of the show is on interviews with writers, filmmakers, actors, and musicians, and often includes excerpts from live in-studio concerts.
One of the highlights of this week’s show is an interview with Andrew Scott about his role in the Netflix adaptation of The Talented Mr. Ripley. Scott talks about how he humanizes the character of Tom Ripley, emphasizing the importance of advocating for characters rather than judging them.
Another fascinating topic explored on the show is Lionel Shriver’s new novel “Mania.” The book satirizes anti-intellectualism in an alternative America where discrimination against those perceived as less intelligent is being challenged. And Nancy Nichols’ book “Women Behind the Wheel” examines the gendered nature of cars and how they symbolize different things for men and women.
