He was previously a reporter for The Washington Post. He has won a national magazine award and been honored by the American Psychological Society and the American Sociological Society. He has been a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1996. In the weekly podcast, Malcolm re-examines an overlooked or misunderstood aspect of past events. Malcolm is the host of a 10-part podcast, Revisionist History, now in its fourth season. With his latest book, David and Goliath, he examines our understanding of advantages of disadvantages, arguing that we have underestimated the value of adversity and over-estimated the value of privilege. He has explored how ideas spread in The Tipping Point, decision making in Blink, and the roots of success in Outliers. He explains why we act the way we do, and how we all might know a little more about those we don’t. Through a series of encounters and misunderstandings - from history, psychology and infamous legal cases - Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual adventure and challenges our assumptions on human nature and strategies we use to make sense of strangers, who are never simple. Gladwell’s new book, Talking to Strangers: What We Should Know About the People We Don’t Know, offers a powerful examination of our interactions with strangers and why they often go wrong. He has been named one of the 100 most influential people by TIME magazine and one of the Foreign Policy’s Top Global Thinkers. Malcolm Gladwell is the author of five New York Times bestsellers - The Tipping Point, Blink, Outliers, What the Dog Saw, and David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits and the Art of Battling Giants.
