Have We All Forgotten How To Apologize?

September 17th, 2026

First, it’s the latest edition The Glitch Report, with misinformation researcher Joan Donovan. This week, she & Edgar talk with Astra Taylor, who co-authored the new book End Times Fascism: And the Fight for the Living World with activist and bestseller Naomi Klein.

Then: Yom Kippur begins this Sunday. Edgar welcomes Rabbi Charlie Schwartz from Lehrhaus and Hebrew College president Rabbi Sharon Cohen Anisfeld for a conversation about the notion of atonement, both within & beyond the Jewish faith.   

After, our Wednesday ends with Edgar meeting organizers Richard Binder & David Watts Jr. ahead of the Commonwealth Pen Show. They’ll talk about some of the history of pens and penmanship, and whether it’s ever okay to do a crossword in pen.
