Longtime New York Times columnist Frank Bruni joins Preet to discuss a few of his favorite topics: food, politics, language, and culture. Bruni also talks about several of the recent changes in his life, including an unusual medical ailment that inspired him to write a book, and his recent appointment as a professor of journalism and public policy at Duke University.
Plus, a hearing to unseal the Fulton County’s Trump investigation grand jury report, classified documents at Mike Pence’s house, and Preet’s mysterious voice shift.
Don’t miss the Insider bonus, where Bruni discusses how he was able to remain trim while working as a restaurant critic and why he sometimes chose not to publish negative reviews of some restaurants. To listen, try the membership for just $1 for one month: cafe.com/insider.
