Jeff Ross's New One-Man Show; UMI's 'people stories' (Listening Party); Peter Mendelsund's Latest Books; Vegetarian Recipes From The Mediterranean
Comedian Jeff Ross discusses his new one-man show, "Take a Banana For the Ride." It is running now on Broadway at the Nederlander Theater through September 28.
Musician and vocalist UMI returns to the show, this time for a Listening Party of her new album, people stories, which features songs about people in her life, from friends, fans, and her own self-reflection. She recorded a majority of the album in her home studio, and UMI reflects on her creative process and her recent album release show in Brooklyn.
Peter Mendelsund is an author, graphic designer, artist, and the creative director of The Atlantic. And this year he has two new books out about human emotion. Exhibitionist: 1 Journal, 1 Depression, 100 Paintings is personal memoir, diary, and showcase of the art he created during a serious bout of depression in 2020. And his new novel Weepers is about a group of professional mourners living in a world gone numb. Mendelsund joins to discuss both books.
Cookbook author Yasmin Khan discusses her latest cookbook, Sabzi: Vibrant Vegetarian Recipes, which features vegetarian dishes from the Middle East, Mediterranean, and South Asia.
