• The Intertwined Legacies of Gloria Steinem and Dolly Parton
    Sep 4 2026

    Gloria Steinem, the feminist icon and co-founder of Ms. magazine, died on Wednesday at her home in Manhattan. Her death came as many were still grieving the loss of another iconic woman: Dolly Parton.

    On paper, the connections between the two women seem superficial, but for the Times Magazine writer Susan Dominus, the relationship between their lives and impact is inescapable.

    Guest:

    • Susan Dominus, a staff writer at The New York Times Magazine.
    • Letty Cottin Pogrebin, a writer and pioneer of the feminist movement who was part of the team that founded Ms. magazine with Gloria Steinem.

    Background reading:

    • In “9 to 5,” Dolly Parton put a friendly face on feminism.
    • Gloria Steinem, the personification of the women’s movement, died at 92.

  • How Flock Cameras Took Over America
    Aug 31 2026

    This summer, Fernando Alfonso, the Texas editor for The New York Times, got in a car with a man named Philip. They drove around the suburban streets of Dallas searching for traffic cameras — not for a red-light camera, or a speed-trap camera, but something new, an automatic license-plate reader made by a company called Flock.

    Law enforcement officials say these cameras are essential to fighting crime, but Phillip and people like him, who have located 100,000 flock cameras all over the country, see them as something else: the beginnings of a surveillance state.

    Today, Kashmir Hill, a technology and privacy writer at The New York Times, discusses the company behind the cameras and the mounting backlash.

    Guest: Kashmir Hill, a technology and privacy writer at The New York Times.

    Background reading: One thing Texan liberals and conservatives agree on: They don’t want cameras trained on their cars.
