The public record
Find substantial conversations by subject, then check confirmed appearances against the organiser’s live listing before making plans.
Indexed by subject
These entries point to the original publisher or production source. The guide summarises the subject without copying interviews or presenting promotional copy as independent fact.
In a Penguin Podcast conversation with Nihal Arthanayake, Osman discusses visiting a retirement community, resisting assumptions about older people and completing his debut before seeking a verdict on it.
Netflix’s adaptation feature records Osman’s choice to remain relatively hands-off while answering the production team’s questions, alongside Chris Columbus’s account of condensing the novel.
Netflix’s behind-the-scenes film includes Osman, director Chris Columbus, producers and cast discussing warmth, character and the adaptation process; a transcript is supplied on the official page.

Inclusion standard
A substantial first-person conversation, video or transcript from a publisher, broadcaster, production company or named publication. Short quotations repeated across publicity pages are not treated as separate interviews.
An appearance must be listed by the author’s publisher, organiser or venue. Social posts can help locate a listing but do not replace it. Past events move into an archive rather than disappearing.
Private appearances, inferred travel, paparazzi material, unsourced dates and copied interview transcripts. The index links outward and supplies original summaries.
Historical interview sources and original event listing checked 8 September 2026; past-event labels and Miami venue updated 9 October 2026. The appearance list is deliberately dated because it is the most volatile section on this page.
