She wrote Eat, Pray, Love. But Elizabeth Gilbert had more healing to do
07/1/2026 | 34min
When Elizabeth Gilbert published her memoir Eat, Pray, Love 20 years ago, she set off a tourism boom of solo travellers inspired by her search for self-worth and fulfillment. But if the book Eat, Pray, Love is an inspirational tale, then her latest memoir, All the Way to the River, is a cautionary one, detailing what happens when we look for validation in the arms of other people. In this candid interview with Tom Power, Elizabeth shares what she’s learned about love and why it’s a memoirist’s responsibility to tell the whole, messy truth.
How Phil Hanley’s severe dyslexia fuels his comedy

Canadian stand-up comedian Phil Hanley has lived with severe dyslexia for so long he can’t see life any other way.

That’s something he writes about in his new memoir, Spellbound: My Life as a Dyslexic Wordsmith. Phil sits down with guest host Talia Schlanger to talk about his fascinating life (including a brief modelling career in the ’90s) and how comedy gave him the confidence to overcome his shame.

Last year, around the release of the final album in the trilogy, Chapter III: We Return To Light, the acclaimed sitar player sat down with Tom Power to talk about how she wants to change perceptions of her instrument, and how she navigates her career in the shadow cast by her famous father, Ravi Shankar.
