Join me as I welcome my dear friend Brad Meltzer back for his annual On-Mic appearance. This time the NY Times best-selling author unveils his latest project, co- written with Josh Mensch entitled, “The Nazi Conspiracy: The Secret Plot to Kill Roosevelt, Stalin and Churchill.” Brad uncovers history and tells its story as well as anyone. As fellow historian Douglas Brinkley says about this new project, “Every page is mesmerizing and eye-opening. A must-read!”
Mental illness is a serious worldwide problem with millions affected. Sadly, so many suffer in silence, fearing vulnerability and stigma. On today's episode I team up once again with my good friend Larry Ruttman (a past guest here and host of his own podcast “A Life Lived Backwards”). We produced two pods on his platform about our respective encounters with depression. I thought it was worth producing a single ON MIC podcast to again share our individual stories of struggle , and more importantly, our paths to healing. If this motivates you or someone in need to seek help, then we will have accomplished something worthwhile. We are NOT dispensing medical advice, for that you should consult a qualified physician. What we are doing is as old as civilization itself; telling deeply personal stories that remind us we are all very much part of the human family.
On Mic takes to the road! We enjoyed a delightful two-week holiday in France recently and couldn't help recording interviews with some fascinating people along the way.

Milton has done a masterful job of keeping it simple as you'll hear as he steps up to join us On Mic!
He's back with another thriller and that's all we need to know to welcome Brad Meltzer back to On Mic!

Dean Baquet is the executive editor of the New York Times and a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist. In February 2019, he sat down with Edward Wasserman, dean of UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism, to discuss the 2016 elections and the future of fact-based journalism."I don't want to be a leader of the opposition to Donald Trump," he told Wasserman. "This is perhaps the hardest thing about navigating this era. A big percentage of my readers, and I hear from them a lot, want me to lead the opposition of Donald Trump. They don't quite say it that way, but what they say is, 'Why quote his tweets? Why go to his press conferences? Why not? Why not just call him a liar every day? Why not essentially just take him out and beat him up? What are you waiting for?' I think that would be the road to ruin, for a bunch of reasons. But, to me, the most powerful one is if you become the leader of the opposition, eventually the people who you're aligned with come to power, right?"This conversation is featured on On Mic, a podcast by the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism. It was produced by Luis Hernandez. For more conversations with writers, journalists and documentarians, check out other On Mic episodes.

(http://science.time.com/2011/04/14/how-the-ice-in-your-drink-is-imperiling-the-planet/) One reason that happiness can be so hard to find is because our brains aren’t wired for happiness – they are wired for survival.
