Host Marcia Franklin talks with author and New Yorker magazine writer Philip Gourevitch about the stories he's covered, including the 1994 genocide in Rwanda and the abuses at Abu Ghraib prison. The two discuss what lessons Gourevitch thinks can be learned from these events, and why he is often drawn to subjects that make others look away. In The Ballad of Abu Ghraib, Gourevitch pieced together transcripts of interviews filmmaker Errol Morris conducted with soldiers who were accused of torturing inmates at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq. Those interviews were also part of a documentary, "Standard Operating Procedure." Gourevitch talks with Franklin about why he thinks some of the soldiers engaged in abusive acts. Gourevitch also authored We Wish to Inform You That Today We Will Be Killed With Our Families, an account of the 1994 mass killing of at least 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus by other Hutus.

Host Marcia Franklin talks with Dr. Abraham Verghese, a professor at the Stanford School of Medicine and an author of both fiction and non-fiction works. They discuss not only the themes of his work, but also his thoughts on healthcare reform and ways for doctors to establish better working relationships with their patients. Verghese's first book, My Own Country, was a poignant chronicle of how his life was changed by working with AIDS patients in rural Tennessee. It was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. He went on to pen another non-fiction work called The Tennis Partner, about a doctor's struggle with mental illness and drug addiction. He is also a frequent contributor to magazines and journals, writing articles about medical ethics. In his first novel, Verghese turned his focus to a work of fiction, Cutting for Stone. It is set in Ethopia, where he grew up. The expansive book follows the saga of two Indian brothers as they learn more about their past. With medicine as its backdrop, it also allows Verghese to explore some of what he views as the best and worst aspects of his profession.

This week's episode of "Hunkered In The Bunker" deals with shoe money, plungers and matzo flicking not to mention the debut of the long considered lost, one and only(the we know of) collaboration between Mr. Bernsteinn and none other than John Winston Ono Lennon himself. We are currently waiting to hear back from the Apple thugs on just how it will be credited..."Lennon/Bernsteinn" or Larry's suggestion of alphabetical "Bernsteinn/Lennon". There is also a third option submitted by Sean Lennon which is the current frontrunner... "Lennonosteinn". Well, that is all in the hands of the legal eagles but I thought I'd mention it here first. Membership in the Bunker has it's perks and privileges indeed. Moving back to the music, this show has some fun stuff. The first ever Social Distancing/ I Need You /Social Distancing sandwich, a rare double dip(Lennon's "God" played twice...possibly an announcement about co-authorship of that one is coming and Dan is thinking in terms of residuals...2X's the plays equal 2X's bread.

Regarding that, announcements on a possible new fan fancy dress code for upcoming shows MIGHT be forthcoming so dust off your best watch fob and vest).

This week's episode of "Hunkered In The Bunker" was the Easter/ Passover show(later dubbed "extravaganza" mid show by Bernsteinn himself). This show was chock-a-block full of holiday magic and wonder including but not limited to songs about Ol' Peter Cottontail, Soft Boiled Eggs, Matzo Ball Soup, Jerusalem(with Mountains of Olives...shout out to the Bunker Buds), Passover as well as some amazing tales of the history of Moses...from parting the Red Sea to his later work in Vegas as a Croupier. There is also the moment where Bernsteinn risks life and limb during the peanut flick challange by attempting to use matzo pieces instead of the usual regulation nuts and legumes*. Thus is his mania and it shows just how far he's willing to go to deliver an exciting show. At the same time we are treated to readings from Johnathan Swift and Martain Luther King Jr as well as songs from the likes of Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Warren Zevon, John Prine and Joe Glazer. It's one heck of a show so remember next time you're in Vegas, listen to Moses(you don't ALWAYS have to split Kings...but it does help) and as always...Stay Hunkered *You are hereby notified that the stunts and tricks displayed in this Facebook Live video and it's affiliated podcast are performed by professionals in controlled environments, such as closed-circuit road tracks or bunker studio.
