  • And we're the hosts of the interview from The New York Times.

  • David and I have spent our careers interviewing some of the most interesting and influential people in the world.

  • Which means we know when to ask tough questions and when to just sit back and listen.

  • And now we've teamed up to have these conversations every week.

  • We'll try to reveal something about the people shaping our world.

  • And we'll get some great stories from them too.

  • It's the interview from The New York Times.

  • Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

  • From the New York Times, I'm Rachel Abrams, and this is The Daily.

  • Sea sections are the most common surgery in the United States.

  • But it turns out, in a shocking number of them, the anesthesia is failing.

  • And that's leaving women to feel a major surgery as it is being performed.

  • Writer Susan Burton made a series about this phenomenon for our colleagues at Serial Productions.

  • And today,

  • she tells us about some of the women she spoke to and the new research on how common their experiences are.

  • It's Friday, February 6th.
