Humorist/writer Shalom Auslander's new memoir is a satirical look at all the ways a sense of "feh," which is Yiddish for "yuck," has made its way into his psyche and every aspect of his life. Auslander has written extensively over the years about growing up in a dysfunctional ultra-Orthodox Jewish family. His new memoir, aptly titled
Feh, is about a journey to write a different story for himself.
We'll also hear from Julianne Nicholson. Proud to call herself a character actor, she's appeared in dozens of films and TV series, from
Ally McBeal and
Boardwalk Empire to
August: Osage County and
Mare of Easttown, where she earned an Emmy. Nicholson is starring in the new film
Janet Planet.
And, Ken Tucker takes us back 50 years to Stevie Wonder's album
Fulfillingness' First Finale, which he says is an underrated treasure.
