- Dave Eggers (A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius) on love and surfing
- Mark Bowden (Black Hawk Down) on modern torture and the "landscape of persuasion"
- Seymour M. Hersh (Chain of Command) on the "selective intelligence" used by the White House to justify the war in Iraq
- Calvin Trillin (The Tummy Trilogy) on his favorite force of nature, the newsman R. W. Apple, Jr.
- Tucker Carlson (CNN's Crossfire), the "whitest man in America," on a peace mission with Rev. Al Sharpton
- And many more!
