The writer Pico Iyer tells Kurt Andersen about his unique friendship with the Dalai Lama. Iyer's new book, The Open Road, looks at the challenges the Dalai Lama faces as both the head of the Tibetan government in exile and Tibet's spiritual leader. Plus, satirist Jack Handey comes back to haunt us with a chilling tale, "The Legend of Me," from his new book What I’d Say to the Martians and Other Veiled Threats.
