Cooking the Books: Bennett Madison Interviews Emily Gould


In this week's insanely special episode of Cooking the Books, the cooking tables are turned, and our usual book-cooking host, Emily Gould, has become the interview subject. Guest host (and one-time subject!) Bennett Madison takes the interrogation reins-a perfect choice, as he appears in Emily's new essay/book/memoir And the Heart Says Whatever, which is out shortly. (You can read more about it in today's New York mag!) Cooking the Books is directed by the terrific Valerie Temple and shot and edited by the wonderful Andrew Gauthier.

It sure does!

"I am a professional, not in the sense of getting paid for it."

On certain days Em, I feel like you understand Ashley Dupre too well.

I'm kind of disappointed/confused by the look of the book. What's the cover art about?

Bettytron (#575)

I know the flowers are one of her tattoos, but I'm with you- it feels like an early draft, somehow.

HiredGoons (#603)

That quote is pretty funny.

And this book cover says whatever.

GoGoGojira (#2,871)

and the book cover says "aw fuck it"

Although that does sound both terrific and wonderful, I tend to like a bit more fabulous in my cooking shows.

Best interview of the series (ha ha get it?).

The hi-def is great and you both look great in it!

Next time Foster does the analytics who gets credit for this one? Emily? Bennett? Free Press?

Adorbs all around. I will likely read it! (But not in hardcover because I am poor folk right now. Apologies, Emily.)

Brian (#115)

Lucky for you it's paperback original!

SpyMagician (#2,024)

It's in paperback as shown in the video. Thus you have not seen the video. J'accuse!!!

Seriously, nice gams.

she of the socks (#2,248)

Oh. I take BACK my apology, Emily.

paco (#2,190)

Query: Why does anyone care to read Emily Gould's memoir? Has she written a memoir about her struggles to write her memoir? Sorry to be a downer, but WTF?

Cuz she's a good writer and it will be well written.

Yes! I must hear more about this person's life!

garge (#736)

Well done, paco, you are rounding out your commenter oeuvre of churlishness quite nicely.

GoGoGojira (#2,871)

It has a beginning, middle, and end? Well, okay then.

She must have been quite surprised that someone would ask about her little old life!

bennimaddi (#314)

rather than argue about whether we like the book cover and whether emily should be allowed to write a book at all can we change the topic of discussion to how good my hair looks???? my feelings are getting kind of hurt!

Emily (#20)

Seriously, we are getting really distracted from how we all want to have sex with Bennett. Remember HIS Cooking the Books? It was downright perverted in the comments. Bring it back!

I have to say i agree with you. The nonchalant hotness of Bennett Madison is rather something to behold.

Priorities people!

p is for pee (#900)

I drink vodka tonics, only because it helps with my malaria problem.

And about the cover being kind of ugs, well, I see it as a sign of underrated treasure status. Think whitechocolatespaceegg album art. As long as she doesn't follow up with a self-titled, she's good.

I'm looking forward to reading your book, Emily.
