For today’s holiday edition, co-hosts Richelle Wilson and Nate Carlin look back on some of the notable moments in arts and culture in 2019—the books, movies, and TV that generated important conversations about what we value in society.
With the input of listeners, they take up the effect of mega box-office hits on cinema and creativity, the #MeToo and political scandals surrounding this year’s Nobel Prize in Literature, the rise of women-centered film and novels over the past decade, the concept of “binge-watching,” the effects of streaming on TV viewing, the role of awards in shaping culture, and more.
