‘Life is such a pain in the ass’: what Talk Easy host Sam Fragoso has learned in a decade of grilling celebs
In honor of SINNERS doing so well at the Actor Awards, here's a Buddy Guy concert on NPR's Tiny Desk where he's joined by his co-star (and now-Actor Award winner) Miles Caton for the last two songs.
If anyone's in LA in September, Buddy Guy's playing the Hollywood Bowl at the age of 90.
SINNERS season approaching.
Good one with @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social!
I told @samfragoso.bsky.social how chasing Jon Hamm as a red carpet correspondent taught me how to try and track down Greg Bovino. Loved doing @talkeasypod.bsky.social and this conversation. youtu.be/IQ-InpRRPT4?...
as I told the great @samfragoso.bsky.social, it was an honor to sit down with him for his @talkeasypod.bsky.social. can’t wait for you to listen. talkeasypod.com/jacob-soboro...
Another @talkeasypod.bsky.social episode I highly recommend. @samfragoso.bsky.social and @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social on the importance of on-the-ground media coverage now and close with the hope that the Bad Bunny halftime show is a some type of inflection point.

Anderson .Paak!
In contrast, you have something like this @talkeasypod.bsky.social episode with Sam Fragoso talking with George Saunders. Sam is one of the best interviewers out there. He's smart, funny, prepared, engaging, interested, and gracious. He wants to be there and spend time with his guest.
Thank you, Steve. Appreciate you going to bat for us.
thank you!
George Saunders on the state of... everything? Good talk.
“I just do not recognize this country anymore” - Sam’s dad.
Amazing conversation here. George Saunders is a national treasure. Thank you, @samfragoso.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... #TalkEasy #democracy #climate #storytelling
I'm home with a cold this afternoon, so I'm lying low and relaxing. We just finished watching this podcast with @samfragoso.bsky.social and writer George Saunders. Excellent conversation and highly recommended. So much to think about here. @talkeasypod.bsky.social

“One of my favorite Jimi Hendrix lines is, ‘Hooray, I awake from yesterday.’ I actually feel that.”
Loved this conversation with Patti Smith.
Thank you, Chad.
As much as I’ve always loved him, Sam is just absolutely killing it with @talkeasypod.bsky.social the past several months. Pretty convinced this is the best podcast out there right now. (Also, of course, Robby Hoffman is hilarious & amazing in this episode)
just a few words about my grandmother, along with some photos my sister dug up from her albums, like this one from her childhood during the war www.justatad.xyz/p/eva-rachel...
Enjoyed every moment of this exchange. Happy New Year.
More of Robby Hoffman in 2026. One of my favorites in recent memory.
thank you!
A holiday special with Kate Winslet.
Thank you for listening, and sharing
"Images can move people, can educate people, can enlighten people, can flip misconceptions, can bridge people. I still believe in photojournalism," @lynseyaddario.bsky.social tells contributor @samfragoso.bsky.social.
Talked with Noah Baumbach about emerging from his “quiet crisis” post-White Noise, art imitating life, and, of course, his (movie) Pop, the late Peter Bogdanovich.
