b'Amy Wallace is an editor-at-large for Los Angeles and a correspondent for GQ .\\n\\n"I\'ve written about the anti-vaccine movement. I love true crime. I\'ve written a lot of murder stories. The thing that unites all of them\\u2014whether it\'s a celebrity profile or a biologist who murdered a bunch of people or Justin Timberlake\\u2014it\'s almost trite to say, but there\'s a humanity to each of these people. And figuring out what\'s making them tick in the moment, or in general, is interesting to me. In a way, that\'s my sweet spot."\\n\\nThanks to TinyLetter and Warby Parker for sponsoring this week\'s episode.\\n\\nShow notes:\\n@msamywallace\\namy-wallace.com\\nWallace on Longform\\n[7:00] "Justin Timberlake: #Hashtag of the Year" (GQ \\u2022 Dec 2013)\\n[12:15] "The Comedian\'s Comedian\'s Comedian" (GQ \\u2022 Aug 2010)\\n[20:30] "A Very Dangerous Boy" (GQ \\u2022 Nov 2013)\\n[35:15] "Mrs. Hughes Takes Her Leave" (Ron Suskind \\u2022 Esquire \\u2022 Jul 2002)\\n[37:00] "Valley Girl Interrupted" (Los Angeles \\u2022 Oct 2001)\\n[44:30] "What Made This University Researcher Snap?"
