Bonus Episode: A Turtle Ate My Tumor

The Weekly

About this episode

This year's commencement speaker is David Sedaris, who recently published Calypso, a new collection of stories. We'll ask him for his advice for graduates, how he went from drug addict and college dropout to critically acclaimed writer, and, most importantly, whether he really fed his tumor to a snapping turtle. Really?
