    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    About 40 seconds after I sit down across from Ari Emanuel, his phone rings. “I think you’re going to owe me money,” Hollywood’s superagent tells his interlocutor. Emanuel—who represents Oprah Winfrey, Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Adele, Denzel Washington, and many more—doesn’t do hellos. His friend on the phone lost a bet and owes him two bucks. But Emanuel, a billionaire and compulsive dealmaker, tells him that he’ll settle for just one dollar, “framed and signed.” An assistant—the…

    I Froze My Eggs. Was It Worth It? (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    In the story of the emperor’s new clothes, the fashion-obsessed monarch is fooled by two con men into buying something he’s told is the latest trend. They weave the outfit out of nothing at all, promising it is only visible to those who are discerning enough to see it. None of the adults in the story are brave enough to say anything; in the end, it is a child who points out that the emperor is in fact going around stark naked.

    Bring Back the America of ‘You’ve Got Mail’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, which means that every time I take a stroll around the neighborhood, I’m walking right through the set of You’ve Got Mail. That storefront on 83rd Street? That’s the café where Meg Ryan’s Kathleen sat waiting for Tom Hanks’s Joe, not knowing that the man she met online is the owner of the big, bad bookstore about to run her much smaller bookshop out of business. You can see that bookshop, too, if you saunter on over to 69th Street—it’s an organic dry c…

    Is This the Most Serious Scandal of the Trump Era? (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Critical

    Read excerpt

    Jensen Huang may have resigned from the AI-chip behemoth he founded, but the investigation into what he knew and when he knew it—about his mistress Alice Huang, and about where her company was delivering Nvidia’s most advanced chips—that’s just beginning. Congressional investigators will soon be asking whether Jensen Huang helped Alice Huang, an alleged Chinese spy, to circumvent U.S. export controls to supply powerful chips to China’s AI companies. Did he have access to—and pass on—U.S. classif…
