  • Theo Baker in Conversation with Vinson Cunningham: “How to Rule the World”
    2026/10/06
    As a freshman reporter for the Stanford student newspaper, Theo Baker received a tip. Most students would have let it go. But he didn't. What he discovered was a research misconduct scandal so significant that – by the time Theo had finished reporting and writing about it -- it forced the resignation of Stanford's president Marc Tessier-Lavigne, a celebrated neuroscientist and biotech executive worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Theo was nineteen at the time – he’s only 21 now – and the quality and impact of his reporting led to him being awarded a Polk Award that year, making him the youngest person ever to receive one of journalism’s most prestigious awards. Theo’s memoir, How to Rule the World: An Education in Power at Stanford University, is both a wild, often darkly funny takedown of Stanford’s culture of tech primacy and a case study in what real investigative journalism requires: patience, skepticism, and the willingness to challenge people and institutions far more powerful than yourself. Joining him in conversation for this episode of Beyond the Page -- recorded live at the 2026 Writers Conference -- is Vinson Cunningham, staff writer and critic at The New Yorker as well as a gifted novelist, whose own sharp eye for institutions and the people who run them makes him the ideal person to draw out this story.

  • Ruth Reichl – The Paris Novel
    2026/05/29
    RUTH REICHL, one of our best-known and most well-loved food writers, is the author of five memoirs, including Tender at the Bone and Save Me the Plums. But she is also a captivating novelist, and, as you might imagine, her fiction is full of sensory pleasures. In Reichl’s “The Paris Novel”, the protagonist Stella is left with an unusual inheritance from her mother: a one-way plane ticket and a note reading simply, "Go to Paris." But Stella is hardly cut out for adventure; a traumatic childhood has confined her to the strict routines of her comfort zone. In a conversation with fellow food writer ALEKSANDRA CRAPANZANO, recorded live at the 2025 Writers Conference, Reichl speaks about her novel that celebrates the city they both adore, and the many reasons for living deliciously, taking chances, and finding your true home.
