Oprah's secret to measuring the worthiness of a life

Oprah could never just ignore her weight. Everyone else was always talking about it – from tabloids to late-night shows. She talks to Rachel about her weight journey and her new embrace of GLP-1s, the topic of her new book, “Enough,” co-written by Dr. Ania Jastreboff. Oprah also opens up to Rachel about her childhood in Mississippi and the lessons she learned from Maya Angelou and Sidney Poitier.

WHAT IS “WILD CARD?”
Life’s too short for small talk. NPR's Rachel Martin gets right to the questions that matter most. Once a week, famous guests pull questions from a deck of cards and open up about the kind of stuff we all think about but rarely say out loud.

Actors, authors and thinkers are prompted to talk about everything from their insecurities and dreams to grief and God. Named one of The New York Times’ 10 best podcasts of 2024, Wild Card stands out among celebrity interview podcasts. When modern life feels chaotic or overwhelming, listen to Wild Card for a joyful, grounding reminder of our shared humanity. You can reach out to us at wildcard@npr.org. We love it when you do.
