A former FBI hostage negotiator offers a new, field-tested approach to negotiating – effective in any situation.

Never Split the Difference takes you inside his world of high-stakes negotiations, revealing the nine key principles that helped Voss and his colleagues succeed when it mattered the most – when people’s lives were at stake. 

Rooted in the real-life experiences of an intelligence professional at the top of his game, Never Split the Difference will give you the competitive edge in any discussion.

Never Split the Difference - by Chris Voss and Tahl Raz

Host Meg Wolitzer presents three works about women who defy the status quo and might therefore be perceived as “dangerous.”  In Margaret Atwood’s “Unpopular Gals,” fairy-tale archetypes reclaim their power. The reader is Ann Harada.  A boisterous and brilliant student threatens to upend the order of her high school in Shanteka Sigers’ “A Way with Bea,” performed by Pascale Armand.  And a Victorian-era wife fights for her sanity in Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s classic “The Yellow Wallpaper,” performed by Carrie Coon.  The show also includes commentary by the Egyptian-American journalist and activist Mona Eltahawy.

Can You Help Me Find My Mom?

There are more tigers in captivity in America than wild tigers in the entire world. The exact number of captive tigers in this country isn't known, because many of them live in people's backyards or unaccredited zoos, and the legality of their ownership varies widely by state and even by circumstance. We travelled to Louisiana to see a 550-pound Siberian-Bengal tiger who lives at a truck stop, and the man who's fought very hard to persuade Louisiana lawmakers he's not a criminal.

The Truth

Influencers (part I of II)

The final work from the Pulitzer Prize&ndash;winning writer, actor, and musician, drawn from his transformative last days &#160; In searing, beautiful prose, Sam Shepard&rsquo;s extraordinary narrative leaps off the page with its immediacy and power. It tells in a brilliant braid of voices the story of an unnamed narrator who traces, before our rapt eyes, his memories of work, adventure, and travel as he undergoes medical tests and treatments for a condition that is rendering him more and more dependent on the loved ones who are caring for him. The narrator&rsquo;s memories and preoccupations often echo those of our current moment&mdash;for here are stories of immigration and community, inclusion and exclusion, suspicion and trust. But at the book&rsquo;s core, and his, is family&mdash;his relationships with those he loved, and with the natural world around him. Vivid, haunting, and deeply moving, Spy of the First Person takes us from the sculpted gardens of a renowned clinic in Arizona to the blue waters surrounding Alcatraz, from a New Mexico border town to a condemned building on New York City&rsquo;s Avenue C. It is an unflinching expression of the vulnerabilities that make us human&mdash;and an unbound celebration of family and life.

Spy of the First Person by Sam Shepard, read by Michael Shannon
