David Remnick is a Pulitzer Prize winner and has helmed The New Yorker for 27 years. He joins the show not only to recount his own travels – from Moscow to Tel Aviv to campaign trails and tour buses – but also to reflect on what nearly three decades of dispatching the world's finest writers has revealed about history, cultural connectedness, and the vast breadth of stories to be found.

Self-taught designer, cook, and creative force Athena Calderone — dubbed "the modern girl's Martha Stewart” by T magazine — joins David to trace the restless curiosity that took her from Long Island to New York's nightlife scene, and on to Ibiza, Morocco, and Rome, always finding beauty and inspiration just beyond the obvious.

The designer who transformed J.Crew into a cultural institution and redefined American style? That is of course Jenna Lyons. In this episode, she joins David to trace the eye for color and texture she's spent a lifetime collecting on the road. From Milanese cafés and silk factories in China to karaoke nights in Tokyo and childhood summers in the French countryside that changed how she understood beauty.
