Founded in 1970, NPR is America's most powerful broadcast news network. Despite being overshadowed by the larger and more glamorous PBS, public radio has long been home to shows such as All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and This American Life that captivate millions of listeners in homes, cars, and workplaces across the nation. In On Air, a book fourteen years in the making, journalist Steve Oney tells the history of this institution, tracing the comings and goings of legendary on-air talents (Bob Edwards, Susan Stamberg, Ira Glass, Cokie Roberts, and many others) and the rise and fall and occasional rise again of brilliant and sometimes venal executives. Oney depicts how NPR created a medium for extraordinary journalism—in which reporters and producers use microphones as paintbrushes and the voices of people around the world as the soundtrack of stories both global and local. Featuring details on the controversial firing of Juan Williams, the sloppy dismissal of Bob Edwards, and a $235 million bequest by Joan B. Kroc, widow of the founder of McDonald's, On Air also chronicles NPR's shift into the digital world and its early embrace of podcasting formats, establishing the network as a formidable media empire. Steve Oney is a longtime journalist who worked for many years as a staff writer for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Magazine and Los Angeles magazine. He has also contributed articles to many national publications, including Esquire, The Wall Street Journal, New York magazine, GQ, and The New York Times Magazine. His history of the lynching of Leo Frank, And the Dead Shall Rise, won the American Bar Association's Silver Gavel Award and the National Jewish Book Award. Oney was educated at the University of Georgia and at Harvard, where he was a Nieman Fellow. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife, Madeline Stuart. Steve Scher is a writer, broadcaster, and interviewer. His children's book, The Moon Bear, came out in 2022. Over his 28 years on local public radio, he won awards for his incisive coverage of public affairs, breaking news and his beyond-the-headlines approach to issues. His in-depth interviews with award-winning authors, political leaders, scientists, artists and active citizens are noted for their intelligence and sensitivity. Most summers since 2009, he has taught a Communications Department class on interviewing at the University of Washington. Buy the Book On Air: The Triumph and Tumult of NPR Third Place Books
“It often takes people a lot of support and really deciding they are going to ask for help, which is a very difficult thing. Most of us don't want to do that. So when somebody does do that, and they come through our doors and we reach out to them here on the streets of San Marcos…we really want to find out where they are at and help them move forward in the most caring and compassionate and dignified way possible.” - Greg Anglea, CEO of Interfaith Community ServicesGreg's career has been devoted to helping others. After graduating with a B.A. in political science from University of California, San Diego in 2003, he worked at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace & Justice at the University of San Diego.

In 2011, he moved to California State University San Marcos as the Director of Major Gifts, building community support for a regional guaranteed-admission program that provides a path to college for low-income, under-served youth.Greg returned as Interfaith's Chief Executive Officer in May 2014, leading an inclusive Strategic Visioning process that returned ownership of Interfaith Community Services to its many stakeholders and produced a clear vision for the future of the organization. That vision supported the creation of the Hawthorne Veteran and Family Resource Center, a recuperative care program for homeless exiting hospitals; the launch of a new regional system of care for all persons experiencing homelessness, bringing together more than 30 community agencies in partnership; the opening of the Haven House Year-Round Emergency Shelter, North County's first year-round emergency homeless shelter for both men and women; and the launch of Recovery & Wellness programs to address addiction and mental health issues.Greg is the Immediate Past Board President of the Alliance for Regional Solutions, Board Member of the Regional Task Force on the Homeless, Co Chair of the North County Live Well Leadership Team, and Immediate Past President of the North County Philanthropy Council.He received his M.A. degree in Leadership and Non-Profit Management from University of San Diego in 2009.

Dr. Paula Cordeiro of the Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies joins Mungi on this week's episode of Everyday Ubuntu to discuss all things education. Her work goes beyond borders, sharing how crucial it is for everyone around the globe to have access to quality education. In this episode, you'll see how these issues are not confined to any specific nation. For instance, even with all of the developments in the U.S, there is still gross inequity and lack of access. Aside from academia, Dr. Cordeiro is also the VP of Education for Edify, an organization whose mission is to improve and expand sustainable Christian-centred education globally. Edify understands that schools need loans, education technology, and training to truly improve and expand. As a lifetimes learner, her greatest fear for humanity is that we will not learn from our history around conflicts, and repeat avoidable mistakes.

Ira Pastor, ideaXme life sciences ambassador interviews Shelley Lyford President and Chief Executive Officer of West Health, the Gary and Mary West Foundation, and the West Health Institute. Growth in Population of Weak and Vulnerable According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the world is on the brink of a demographic milestone. Since the beginning of recorded history, young children have outnumbered their elders. In about 5 years’ time, the number of people aged 65 or older will outnumber children under age 5. Driven by falling fertility rates and remarkable increases in life expectancy, population aging will continue, and even accelerate. The number of people aged 65 or older is projected to grow from an estimated 524 million in 2010 to nearly 1.5 billion in 2050, with most of the increase in developing countries. Impact of Aging Population As these trends occur, key questions arise: - Will population aging be accompanied by a longer period of good health, a sustained sense of well-being, and extended periods of social engagement and productivity, or will it be associated with more illness, disability, and dependency? - How will aging affect health care and social costs? - Are these futures inevitable, or can we act to establish a physical and social infrastructure that might foster better health and wellbeing in older age? - How will population aging play out differently for low-income countries that will age faster than their counterparts have, but before they become industrialized and wealthy? These are important questions which require answers, and sooner than later. Billionaire Philanthropists Gary and Mary West For Gary and Mary West, what started as an entrepreneurial journey in 1978, when they co-founded a small telemarketing company in the garage of their house in Omaha, Nebraska, turned into the multi-billion $$ American telecommunications company / success story, the West Corporation, employing close to 36,000 people As wonderful an entrepreneurial success story as that was, what happened next is an equally fascinating story, where this amazing couple has taken major parts of their fortune, spending hundreds of millions of dollars in supporting causes, including, but not limited to, senior citizen wellness and cutting the health care costs for the elderly. Shelly Lyford, West Health and Gary West Foundation Shelley Lyford is President and Chief Executive Officer of West Health, the Gary and Mary West Foundation, and the West Health Institute. Solely funded by the philanthropy of Gary and Mary West, West Health is a family of non-profit, nonpartisan organizations dedicated to lowering healthcare costs to enable seniors to successfully "age in place" with access to high-quality, affordable health and support services that preserve and protect their dignity, quality of life, and independence. With a master’s degree in international relations and political economics from the University of San Diego, Ms. Lyford has played a critical role in establishing the Gary and Mary West Foundation in 2006, and under her leadership, has to date rewarded grants totalling more than $223 million for applied medical research, policy initiatives and community support and social services for seniors and their caregivers. Ms. Lyford also leads the Gary and Mary West Health Institute as it conducts research on a wide range of healthcare issues affecting seniors and their families. Ms. Lyford has spearheaded the development of innovative healthcare delivery ecosystems that serve as national care models of excellence, including the Gary and Mary West Senior Emergency Care Unit at University of California, San Diego Health, California’s first nationally-accredited senior-specific emergency department, and the Gary and Mary West PACE organization in north San Diego, a set of gold standard programs, which help seniors age in place, rather than in a nursing home. Additionally, she oversaw the development of the first of its kind, non-profit Gary and Mary West Senior Dental Center to ensure low-income seniors have access to high-quality, affordable dental care integrated with health and wellness services. Ms Lyford has been involved in setting up many of the organization's research initiatives and collaborations including those with the American College of Emergency Physicians, the American Geriatrics Society, Brown University, Dartmouth-Hitchcock, Duke University, Meals on Wheels America, Mount Sinai Health System, UC San Diego Health and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In 2019, Ms. Lyford was appointed for a three-year term as a commissioner on the California Commission on Aging, advising the state’s governor and legislature, along with federal, state and local agencies, on issues, policies, and regulations that affect California’s seniors, and subsequently appointed to California’s Master Plan for Aging Stakeholder Advisory Committee. Ms. Lyford also serves as vice-chair of the board of directors for CivicaRx, a not-for-profit generic drug company helping patients by addressing shortages and lowering the high prices of lifesaving medications. Prior to her work with Gary and Mary West, Ms. Lyford was a director at the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice at the University of San Diego. She currently sits on the Executive Committee of Grantmakers in Aging. On this episode of ideaXme we will hear from Ms. Lyford about: - Her background and fascinating path from growing up on a dairy farm in Vermont to running the West Health network of organizations - The Gary and Mary West story and why they developed their charitable focus on seniors and aging - The biggest challenges today facing seniors including the themes of "aging-in-place", geriatric emergency care, and senior oral health - How the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted seniors and aging - How Tele-Health has emerged as an important option during the pandemic and thoughts about the importance of Tele-Health now and into the future for senior care and monitoring - The California Master Plan for Aging - The blossoming cost of prescription drugs and what can be done to bring prices down - Her overall recommendations for reforming the healthcare system and her outlook for aged-care Interview Credits: Ira Pastor ideaXme life sciences ambassador.
