Los Angeles est toujours la proie des flammes. Et les incendies ne sont pas prêts de s'arrêter. En cause, soupire le Los Angeles Times, les vents violents qui devraient souffler encore jusqu'à après-demain mercredi. « Au moins 24 personnes sont mortes et plus de 12 000 bâtiments ont été endommagés ou détruits, pointe le quotidien. Après quelques progrès hier dans la lutte contre les incendies d'Eaton et de Palisades, les pompiers s'attendent à ce que le vent entrave à nouveau leurs efforts pour contenir la tempête de feu ».Le Los Angeles Times qui s'interroge : comment ces incendies ont-ils démarré ? « Un feu de broussailles s'était déclaré le jour du Nouvel An près du site de l'incendie de Palisades. Des braises mal éteintes ont-elles pu être ravivées ? Pour ce qui est de l'incendie d'Eaton, le feu semble avoir pris au pied d'un pylône électrique. Y-a-t-il court-circuit ? Un pyromane présumé a été mis en cause dans l'incendie de Kenneth. Le feu a-t-il été mis volontairement ? Les autorités ont jusqu'à présent fait preuve de circonspection et de prudence. Elles n'ont pas encore de réponses concrètes, mais elles en auront, ont-elles dit, dès qu'elles auront terminé les enquêtes qui ne font que commencer ».La faute au changement climatique ?En attendant, c'est la désolation pour des milliers de personnes qui ont tout perdu dans l'incendie de leur maison…« Le rêve californien est parti en fumée », soupire l'écrivaine Patti Davis dans le New York Times. D'après elle, c'est le changement climatique qui est responsable du drame et l'homme en est la cause : « il fut un temps où je pensais que cette terre (californienne) que j'aimais tant serait éternelle, écrit-elle. Je ne pouvais pas imaginer une Terre qui gémirait, se déchaînerait et sombrerait dans le chaos en raison de l'insouciance et de la cupidité de l'homme et de la croyance futile selon laquelle nous pourrions continuer à déverser des poisons dans l'atmosphère sans aucune répercussion. (…) Nous avons déséquilibré une planète entière et nous en subissons aujourd'hui les conséquences, dénonce Patti Davis : des phénomènes météorologiques si violents que nous n'avons aucune idée de la manière de les combattre ».La faute aux démocrates ?Autre analyse à lire dans le Wall Street Journal, analyse politique cette fois : « comment la gauche a transformé la Californie en un paradis perdu », c'est le titre de l'un des éditoriaux du quotidien économique américain. « Après les élections de novembre, le gouverneur de la Californie, Gavin Newsom, avait annoncé son intention de protéger le Golden State de Trump. Mais qu'a-t-il fait pour la protection contre le feu ? ». Réponse du Wall Street Journal : rien, bien au contraire. Et le journal de dénoncer les « obsessions environnementales » de Gavin Newsom : protection de végétaux et d'animaux qui ont entravé le débroussaillage et perturbé la gestion de l'eau. Dénonciation également de la mauvaise gestion des crédits alloués aux pompiers. Dénonciation aussi du laxisme de l'État californien face à la criminalité et face au problème des sans-abris. Les sans-abris qui seraient à l'origine, pointe le Wall Street Journal, de plusieurs départs de feu ces dernières années, et peut-être aussi à l'origine des incendies actuels. Et le journal de s'interroger : « les incendies inciteront-ils Messieurs Newsom et consorts à repenser leurs illusions ? Oubliez cela, c'est La La Land ».Qui reconstruira ?Et puis cette question posée par le Washington Post : « qui reconstruira Los Angeles ? » Réponse là aussi très politique : « les immigrés, notamment mexicains, qui constituent près de la moitié des travailleurs du bâtiment. (…) Alors que Trump s'apprête à prendre les rênes du pouvoir, promettant de mettre en œuvre des politiques d'immigration punitives pour s'attaquer aux sans-papiers, il est crucial de reconnaître qui construit véritablement l'Amérique. (…) Comme lors de la pandémie de covid-19, les États-Unis vont demander à leur main-d'œuvre immigrée d'accomplir des tâches essentielles. Le moins que le pays puisse faire en retour, estime le Washington Post, est de leur accorder la paix et la sécurité au lieu de les soumettre à la persécution et à la discrimination ».Et les JO de 2028 ?Enfin, autre question posée par Le Monde à Paris : comment Los Angeles pourra-t-elle organiser les Jeux olympiques dans trois ans ?« Les défis en matière d'infrastructures auxquels la ville est désormais confrontée sont immenses, souligne un analyste interrogé par le journal. Ce sera une course pour se préparer à l'organisation des Jeux et un cauchemar financier pour tout ce qui doit être construit ou reconstruit ».Commentaire du Monde : « au moment de faire le bilan de la catastrophe, qui s'annonce déjà comme l'une des plus coûteuses de l'histoire de la Californie, certains se demanderont sans doute si l'organisation des Jeux de 2028 doit vraiment être la première des priorités ».
This evening we share one last lesson from Chanukah - patience. We explore a contemporary and applicable answer to why Yosef never tried to contact his father, Yaakov, from Rabbi Yoel Bin Nun and Patti Davis.

Today on the show we have the remarkable Patti Davis, daughter of U.S. President Ronald Reagan and First Lady Nancy Reagan. Patti's new book, Dear Mom and Dad: A Letter About Family, Memory, and the America We Once Knew is a book, in Patti's own words, about acceptance, forgiveness, and moving on from the past, a book that—though Patti's parents were much more famous than most, even before her father entered politics—anyone can relate to. There's not a person among us who hasn't at one point or another struggled with their parents, as the parent-child relationship is so complicated; this is Patti's story, and it's a powerful one. When her father became president, Patti became Ribbon, her Secret Service code name. The complexities that go along with being the child of a president are daunting, and we talk about that in today's episode, as well as family secrets, living life as the world watched, and what she'd like to say to her father and mother after their deaths in 2004 and 2016, respectively.

This morning we discuss a recent article by Patti Davis, triggered by the passing of Matthew Perry (whose work I love, both comedy and drama), on the role of loneliness as the root of addiction and suicide. Rabbi Yoel Bin Nun sees loneliness at the root of why Yosef never reaches out to contact his father, Yaakov. We describe the processes that lead to this with a quote from Emile Zola, and what we can do to try to help, in just a few minutes a day. Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation.

Because Matthew Perry is still very much on my mind. Because I am still not sure why he died. Only know that they found him unresponsive in a Jacuzzi. Don't know what he did before he climbed into the tub. Don't know whether helped any alcohol or any other substance to climb into his capillaries. I don't know what I don't know. And maybe when I do I'll stop thinking about Matthew Perry. But for some reason I don't think I ever well. A long time ago, I lay awake for hours, terrified that they would be my last ones on earth. The sentiment of Patti Davis daughter of Nancy Davis better known as Nancy Reagan. The Reagans' daughter Patty says she committed to quitting cocaine, was devoted to “cleaning up and getting healthy." She writes, “But then a friend called who I had routinely done coke with and who always had a supply of the drug. Earlier on that black night, I'd careened backward into the familiar land of white lines on a mirror and a heart racing way too fast. It was pounding so hard, so fast, so loud, I was certain it and I couldn't survive. I saw the fact that I did survive as somewhat of a miracle. It would be a nice, clean story if I said I never did drugs again. But addiction is never nice and clean. I did go back to trying to clean up my life, and truthfully I backslid only a couple of times after that — and never as severely as on the night I thought might be my last. I don't think back on those days too often, but with Matthew Perry's death, the memories have coiled around me because of how honest he was about his own addiction. I want to tell you something about addiction: No matter who it is or what substance that person is hooked on, loneliness is at its root. For whatever reason — and I have no theory as to why — there are those of us who feel isolated in this world, as if everyone else had some secret formula for getting along, for fitting in, and no one ever let us in on it. That loneliness resides deep inside us, at our core, and no matter how many people try to help us, no matter how many friends reach out, support us, show up for us, it never entirely goes away. It's vast and shadowy and also part of who we are. Something happens when we discover a drug or alcohol: Suddenly we have a companion holding our hand, propping us up, making us feel we fit in, we can be part of the club. It's there for us in the empty hours when it seems no one else is." Patty Davis, the daughter of Nancy and Ronald Reagan, this week in the New York Times.

Patti Davis is an actress, author, activist, advocate, and daughter of a United States president. She has written extensively about her father, Ronald Reagan, and his Alzheimer's disease in both The Long Goodbye and now Floating in the Deep End. In 2011, she created a support group program for caregivers of people with dementia, called Beyond Alzheimer's. Floating in the Deep End is an extension of that support group — a handbook for those on the perilous and sorrowful journey of losing a loved one to this mysterious disease. It is also part memoir, as many of the memories of her own dementia journey have taken on a different resonance with time and reflection. She hopes that caregivers and readers find guidance and comfort in this book. In this episode we discuss both the challenges and comforts of living your Alzheimer's journey in full view of the world, her approach to building caregiver support groups, and the lessons and gifts that can be found in dementia care.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Patti Davis, Author of “Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's”About Harvey's guest:Today's special guest came to international attention first as an engaging movie and TV star, and then as the refreshingly outspoken daughter of President Ronald Reagan and Nancy Reagan. Then, starting in 1986, she emerged as one of the most thoughtful, versatile and prolific authors in America. Her novels, like “Home Front”, “A House of Secrets”, “Bondage”, “Till Human Voices Wake Us” and “The Earth Breaks in Colors”, envelop us in a fusion of her own life experiences, world view, and insights into the human spirit. But she's probably best known for her frank, candid and deeply personal books, “The Way I See It”, “Angels Don't Die: My Father's Gift of Faith”, and “The Long Goodbye: Memories of My Father”, that allowed us to get to know and understand her and her family. She also produced what is widely considered to be the definitive book about the mother-daughter relationship, entitled, “The Lives Our Mothers Leave Us: Prominent Women Discuss the Complex, Humorous, and Ultimately Loving Relationships They Have with Their Mothers”. Her latest book, entitled “Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's”, is a piercingly honest and deeply moving account of the challenges involved in caring for someone stricken with Alzheimer's, inspired by her own experiences in taking care of her father, President Reagan, in the final years of his life. She's outspoken, passionate, compassionate, and always compelling.For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/https://twitter.com/patti_davishttps://www.facebook.com/BooksByPattiDavis #PattiDavis #Alzheimers #harveybrownstoneinterviews
Join us for a first-time screening of an informational video for our Lynn's Legacy: Caring for the Caregiver program. Also, we read from Patti Davis' caregiving memoir, "Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's". In this excerpt, Patti writes about a meaningful time near the end of her father's life when they recalled their shared faith.
In today's episode, we focus on the devastating experiences of spouses or partners in committed relationships who have lost a loved one. The intense grief following such a loss causes great distress and impacts physical health and well-being. Many people don't know how to handle and express their grief and need support, even when they don't reach out for help. We also return to Patti Davis' book, "Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's". While most of her memoir is on target with help for understanding and caring for someone with Alzheimer's, we disagree with her position (shared by others in the dementia community) that views affairs as appropriate self-care when one partner can no longer meet the other's physical needs. We share our conviction that such behavior is less than respectful and honoring to a beloved one.
We return to "Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's", Patti Davis' memoir of caring for her father during the last stages of his life. Davis clearly and powerfully describes the emotional challenges she faced as a caregiver to recognize and deal with her old family-related pain and disappointment. To be compassionately present for her father as an adult daughter, she found it necessary to face her childhood fear of her mother and her anger over having felt shut out of her father's life. All caregivers face similar emotional challenges as part of their work. Denying old, negative emotions - or indulging in them - or covering them up by only "performing" the role - can lead to caregiver depression, burnout and illness, and poor quality of care for their loved one. Refusing to come to grips with ourselves and our emotional history is also a lost opportunity for healing and growth to emotional maturity
Not all caregivers are able to open up, or fully describe, the "extraordinary reality" of caring for a loved one. Patti Davis, in her memoir "Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's", expresses clearly and eloquently her experience of caring for her father, Ronald Reagan. She is able to communicate the full range of emotions and challenges the experience put her through - anger, pain, loss, fear, hope and love. Patti found an opportunity to grow up, put aside old pain and resentments, and create a better relationship with her father in the present. She found creative ways to communicate and engage with her father, and help calm and comfort him in times of anxiety and distress.
Kitty talks with Patti Davis, author of Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's. Patti began taking care of her father, former president Ronald Reagan, when he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's after leaving office; she later ran support groups for family caregivers. She tells Kitty about the difficult lessons she learned while caring for a person with Alzheimer's and the spiritual groundings that carried her through it.
When her father, President Ronald Reagan, announced he had Alzheimer's, Patti Davis and her family began a very public journey to cope with the disease. Davis joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the support group she founded and the struggle with prolonged grief that comes with the illness. Her book is “Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers can See Beyond Alzheimer's.” This episode originally aired Dec. 2, 2021.
In today's podcast, we profile Patti Davis, author of "Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's". Davis, the formerly rebellious daughter of Ronald Reagan, provides a powerful example of a person who turned her painful challenges into an opportunity for growth, resilience and purpose in life. On learning of her father's diagnosis of Alzheimer's, Patti resolved to actively care for her father for the remainder of his life. Davis is a gifted writer, blending her expertise on dementia with her own life experiences. She shares her difficult journey of overcoming old family pain and resentments to a personal deepening of forgiveness, compassion and love. After her father's death, Patti carried on a legacy of her experience by creating Beyond Alzheimer's, a network of support groups for caregivers and families of Alzheimer's sufferers.
One of our main areas of interest and outreach has been Alzheimer's prevention. Now with 6.2 million Americans carrying this diagnosis, and no meaningful treatment in sight, exploring how lifestyle choices influence risk is more important than ever. There is another part of the Alzheimer's story that is also in need of attention. And this is the impact that this diagnosis has on the families, loved ones, and caregivers involved with Alzheimer's patients. No one is prepared for what lies ahead when a family member is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. And I can tell you that not just from the perspective of a neurologist, but from the perspective of my day-to-day interactions with my father who succumbed to the disease. When Alzheimer's is diagnosed in a parent or spouse, or in any loved one for that matter, we come face to face with a challenge that forces us to explore our value systems, our thoughts on self-worth, and definitely our family dynamics. Our guest today, Patti Davis, recounts the panorama of challenges she experienced as her father, President Ronald Reagan, was first diagnosed and then declined with Alzheimer's disease. Her new book, Floating in the Deep End, is powerfully emotional and at the same time deeply instructional, lovingly gifting important tools to help with the challenges of dealing with an Alzheimer's patient. This is a circumstance that will affect so many people, and these are incredibly important lessons. ==== Patti Davis is the author of many books, including The Long Goodbye. Her support group, Beyond Alzheimer's, is now licensed at Geisinger Medical Center in Pennsylvania and Cleveland Clinic in Las Vegas. She lives in Santa Monica, California and is available for virtual interviews and events.

My guest is Patty Davis, the daughter of former U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Nancy Reagan.When Patty's father announced his Alzheimer's diagnosis in an address to the American public in 1994, the world had not yet begun speaking about this cruel, mysterious disease. Empowered by all she learned from caring for her father―about the nature of the illness, but also about the loss of a parent―Davis founded a support group for the family members and friends of Alzheimer's patients. Along with a medically trained co-facilitator, she met with hundreds of exhausted and devastated attendees to talk through their pain and confusion.Her book, Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers can See Beyond Alzheimer's, discusses her experiences to provide her unique experience of battling Alzheimer's.https://www.amazon.com/Floating-Deep-End-Caregivers-Alzheimers/dp/1631497987/Email me, Lisa Stockdale, anytime at aginginfullbloom@gmail.comAging In Full Bloom is sponsored by Capital Health Care Network, an Ohio based, family owned and operated company, providing solutions that help seniors age on their own terms.

Becoming a caregiver for aging parents or someone you love can be a reversal of roles for you and the person you care for. Plus, if the person you care for has any form of dementia, including Alzheimer's, you will need to look at things differently. There will, most likely, be challenges and opportunities in relationships that may have never been addressed before. To gain a better understanding of the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual demands managing dementia can present, Positive Psychology Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with two authors about their in-depth knowledge and personal experiences. Professor of Neurology, Andrew Budson discusses his latest book, Six Steps to Managing Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia: A Guide for Families. His straightforward research and clinical information serves to keep those in the caregiver role healthy. He also shares basic strategies to help stave off memory loss and dementia for all of us. Patti Davis is the author of Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers Can See Beyond Alzheimer's. She shares a warm, personal account of caring for her formerly estranged father who lived with dementia long-term.
This podcast episode explores the hardships and rewards of being a caregiver through the lens of two recent articles of note. "Long Hours, Low Pay, Loneliness and a Booming Industry", published by the New York Times, profiles the difficult life and Covid-related death of two New York caregivers, and throws some light on the questionable practices of the caregiving industry in that state. In the Wall Street Journal, Patti Davis shares her transition from "getting so many things wrong" in her life to discovering her own "strength and capacity for compassion" in "Patti Davis Has Wisdom to Share With Alzheimer's Caregivers". We add our thoughts, insight and encouragement to caregivers (and potential caregivers) everywhere.
Former president Ronald Reagan disclosed his Alzheimer's disease diagnosis in 1994. He died a decade later. His daughter, Patti Davis, chronicles her family's experiences with the diseases in her latest book, “Floating in the Deep End: How Caregivers can See Beyond Alzheimer's.” Critics also review the latest movie releases, including “Dear Evan Hansen” and “The Guilty.”

Caissie Levy will always be Elsa to us. Caissie's son Izaiah still watches the Frozen films and points to Elsa and says, "That's you Mommy!!"... BE STILL MY HEART!! Just to be clear, we don't sleep with the Elsa doll like Caissie son (well Dan probably does). We are so excited that Caissie is here with us today. Joe can barely contain his excitement to trap Caissie and force her to listen to his ramblings of fandom. She is one of the iconic voices of our generation and her "Let It Go" is THE "Let It Go"... you're welcome to fight us on that. We talk with her about vulnerability and how messiness is the key to greatness, how losing your voice can be the key to finding it, and the way to lead a Broadway show is to always learn from the people around you. Caissie has had an incredible career and she's just getting started. We are desperate for the revival of Caroline or Change coming back to Broadway this fall. Before she was Queen of Arendelle, Caissie recreated the iconic role of Fantine in the 2014 revival of Les Misérables on Broadway, and is known to New York and London audiences for originating the roles of Molly in Ghost, and Sheila in the Tony Award winning revival of Hair. Her other Broadway credits include Elphaba in the Broadway and Los Angeles production of Wicked, Penny in the Broadway, 1st National Tour and Toronto companies of Hairspray and Maureen in the national tour of Rent.

Patti Davis is back on the show to discuss life skills that can be learned from seeing a licensed mental health counselor. She uses adventure therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical family systems, Gestalt and play therapy with people of all ages to help them overcome issues such as grief, low self-esteem, stress, anxiety, depression and more. Patti is an expert in emotional health and the mind-body connection. In Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Patti is able to help her clients learn valuable life skills like learning how to ask for what you want, mindfulness and bearing pain skillfully. Mindfulness, in particular, is a valuable life skill because it helps us focus in the moment on the task at hand. Anxiety comes from living in the future and depression comes from living in the past, Patti shares. Mindfulness helps us live in the present moment, thus avoiding those negative emotions. Overall Patti has observed that the life skills her clients learn have led to them thriving emotionally, mentally and physically. Patti believes that everyone can benefit from having a good counselor on their side. You can use counseling to learn and implement new life skills, become better professionally, improve relationships, communication and have a neutral, unbiased, sounding board for when you need someone to objectively listen to your problems. Here’s What You’ll Discover: How to learn how to bear pain skillfully You don’t need to be “sick” to see a therapist. You can go to a counselor for life skills and preventive emotional health care. How to pick a counselor. Why Gold Standard Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is the best counseling for those seeking optimal health. How to eliminate anxiety and depression. Health AH-HA Moment: Watch your language. Come from “I”. Instead of “She did this to me” or “You made me feel…” Say “I felt upset when you…” Instead of “but” say “and”. But means you negate one thought for the other. And means you can be both things. “A parent can be gentle and firm.” Your Challenge: Every morning and night think of 10 things for which you are grateful. You cannot be stuck in negative emotions when you are in gratitude.

Ashley’s guest today is Patti Davis, a licensed mental health counselor. She uses adventure therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical family systems, Gestalt and play therapy with people of all ages to help them overcome issues such as grief, low self-esteem, stress, anxiety, depression and more. Patti is an expert in emotional health and the mind-body connection. Her path to her current calling took years but she is grateful for the experiences she had before going to graduate school in counseling, because in her maturity and insight she is able to witness what people are going through with compassion. Among older people therapy is still seen as shameful and a last resort, but to the younger generation, seeing a counselor is becoming more and more acceptable. Patti likes to see therapy as preventive, a mental and emotional exercise to keep the mind and emotions healthy, just as physical exercise keeps the body healthy. Everyone goes to the dentist, everyone goes to the optometrist, and everyone could benefit from going to a mental health counselor. When depression is lifted we become more active and social. Ashley and Patti Davis discuss therapy for families and children, including DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, recognized as the gold standard psychological treatment for certain populations. Here’s What You’ll Discover: The awareness of a problem is a huge first step Medications are like a cast—you put a cast on the broken arm, but eventually, with healing, the cast comes off. The best way to find a therapist is to get recommendations from your friends. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, is designed to help people change patterns of behavior. Health AH-HA Moment: Your body will speak when your mind cannot. Your Challenge: Picture yourself on your balcony. You’re watching your life in front of you. Take the personalization out of it and see what you notice. Are you in alignment with your values? Why is that feeling showing up? Ask yourself these questions: What is the threat? What am I scared of? What is missing? What am I not seeing or saying? Resource: patti.davis@comcast.net 206-321-5003 Look Patti Davis up under Psychology Today
NOTE: This interview was recorded before the death and funeral of Nancy Reagan. So please give Patti Davis the privacy and respect she deserves during this difficult time. | The first child of Ronald and Nancy Reagan, Patti Davis, has lived anything but the conventional life of the child of a conservative political family. Throughout the 1970s, Patti rejected her parents' conservatism, living with a member of the rock band the Eagles and participating in the nuclear freeze movement. After years working as an actress, Patti tried her hand at writing. In 1986, she published A House of Secrets, an undeniably autobiographical novel about a liberal young writer whose conservative father is the governor of California and then the president of the United States, and whose mother is an exacting woman obsessed with appearances and propriety. A long estrangement between Patti and her parents followed. In recent years, Patti has voiced regret at some of her actions during this time period. But we wonder how many of us would have handled the burden of that legacy any differently? She and her parents reconciled in 1993, shortly before Reagan's diagnosis with Alzheimer's, while she was writing Angels Don't Die: My Father's Gift of Faith. Patti is an amazing author, journalist and screenwriter who, after 8 conventionally published books, chose to self-publish through Amazon's CreateSpace and KDP. Her first self-published novel is Till Human Voices Wake Us, a story of unexpected love between two sisters-in-law. It was reviewed well in People magazine, in InieReader, and by Amazon readers. Her second novel is The Blue Hour, a YAF ghost story that also will appeal to adults. Returning to conventional publishing, her latest book, The Earth Breaks in Colors, is a powerful and emotionally compelling story of race, redemption and transformation. The story centers around a racially fueled incident which exposes the fissures that sit beneath the surface of friendships and families. It is also a story about family secrets and how they can burn holes through us the size of an entire life. And how, if we stay true to ourselves, we can overcome these secrets and transform legacies of shame and indifference into those of love and profound connection. We were honored to have her on the show. This week's music was curated (unofficially) by Ani DiFranco. The songs speak directly to how we see the life and work of Patti Davis through the OTB lens. Special thanks to Celeste Gurevich for the music suggestions.

On the last edition of the show in 2010, we started a look back at the year on Tell Somebody. Starting with a January guest host we heard excerpts from shows airing in first part of the year, ending with the June 22, 2010 show with Dr. Helen Caldicott telling us a fascinating story about how Patti Davis asked Caldicott to talk about nuclear weapons to her father, Ronald Reagan.
