Fresh Air Weekend highlights some of the best interviews and reviews from past weeks, and new program elements specially paced for weekends. Our weekend show emphasizes interviews with writers, filmmakers, actors and musicians, and often includes excerpts from live in-studio concerts. This week:
As 'Better Call Saul' wraps, Bob Odenkirk reflects on his life-changing heart attack: Odenkirk's near-fatal heart attack halted the production of the series' final season. Showrunner Peter Gould says Odenkirk's return to set was was "one of the most hopeful things imaginable."
How one author is aspiring to make sex education more relatable for today's kids: Cory Silverberg's new book, You Know, Sex, touches only briefly on reproduction. Instead, it focuses on young people, and the questions they might have about pleasure, power and identity.
