The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson's new book, “Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” which is critical of the Biden Administration for covering up the president's physical and cognitive decline, was released earlier this week. While Tapper is now reporting on internal stories about Biden's health decline, why did he—and the rest of the mainstream media—largely ignore the story prior to Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 presidential election? While speaking with journalist Tara Palmeri, DC insider Sally Quinn accused former First Lady Jill Biden of “elderly abuse” for allowing her husband to initially run for re-election in 2024. 3:30pm- While appearing on Fox News, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) discussed his recent request for the Department of Justice to investigate Joe Biden's cognitive and physical decline while serving as president. 3:40pm- While on NewsNation, Axios reporter and Original Sin co-author Alex Thompson said that Biden Administration officials were shocked that the mainstream media was unwilling to investigate Joe Biden's cognitive and physical decline—instead, constantly taking the White House's word without any critical examination. 3:50pm- To absolutely no one's surprise, Matt has never seen the classic film Spaceballs. Plus, the debate over brioche buns rages on!

Plus, the debate over brioche buns rages on! 4:05pm- On Thursday, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released its Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) commission report investigating chronic illness—determining that the health of children nationwide has been negatively impacted by ultra-processed foods, chemical exposures, the over prescription of pharmaceutical drugs, and a lack of emphasis on exercise. From the White House, Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and President Donald Trump announced the results of the report and spoke to the press. Kennedy explained: “never in American history has the federal government taken a position on public health like this”—noting that it had been an ambition of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, before he was killed. 4:45pm- During Thursday's White House briefing, reporter Peter Doocy asked Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt if unelected Biden Administration staffers concealed the former president's decline so that they could use the levers of power for their own personal gain. 5:05pm- Jennifer Galardi—Senior Policy Analyst for Restoring American Wellness in The Heritage Foundation's DeVos Center—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to assess the Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) newly released Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Commission report investigating chronic illness. The report determines that the health of children nationwide has been negatively impacted by ultra-processed foods, chemical exposures, the over prescription of pharmaceutical drugs, and a lack of emphasis on exercise. 5:35pm- On Wednesday night two Israeli Embassy staffers were tragically shot and killed outside of the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington D.C. In a post to X, FBI Director Kash Patel revealed that the shooting will be investigated as an “act of terror.” 5:45pm- Steve Hilton—GOP Candidate for Governor of California, former Senior Advisor to the U.K. Prime Minister, and a former Fox News Host—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his campaign and his potential gubernatorial opponent Kamala Harris's role in covering up Joe Biden's physical and mental decline. Hilton argues that as Vice President, Harris was as responsible as anyone for lying to the American people—demonstrating her failure as a leader and disqualifying her from any future office.

For months, Kara has been assembling a group of investors to buy The Washington Post. Although it's not actually for sale, the ongoing exodus of journalistic talent, combined with Bezos's decision to kill an endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris days before the 2024 presidential election, made it both plausible that Bezos might entertain a bid and crucial that someone step forward. Now, after watching Bezos remake the opinion section in ways that seem designed to curry favor with President Trump, the chances of persuading him to sell seem increasingly remote. Nonetheless, Kara's quixotic quest continues, and in this episode, she talks to some of the people she's turned to for advice, including: Cameron Barr, a former senior managing editor at the Post who resigned in the wake of the new changes; Tina Brown, a pioneering journalist and media executive who has led multiple publications, including Vanity Fair, The New Yorker, Newsweek, and The Daily Beast; Oliver Darcy, a former CNN senior media reporter and currently the founder and lead author of Status.news; Sally Quinn, the first woman to anchor a CBS News morning show, and a best-selling author, and longtime Post columnist who was married to the late Ben Bradlee, a legendary executive editor at the Post; and Amanda Katz, a writer, editor and translator who worked as a senior assignment editor for the opinion section of the Post until she resigned last year (and wife to Kara Swisher). And make sure to watch "Becoming Katharine Graham," a new documentary about the former Post publisher's extraordinary life and journalistic courage (now streaming, ironically enough, on Amazon Prime).

In 1971, the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, celebrated 2,500 years of the Persian Empire by throwing a huge three-day party. Trees were planted, birds imported, and a runway built in the middle of the desert with royalty from across the world attending. But the event united opposition parties against the Shah and lost him public credibility. Author and journalist Sally Quinn was “party reporter” for the Washington Post and covered the event. She speaks to Megan Jones. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past.

Hadley and Alyssa uncover the fascinating history of Grey Gardens, the grand East Hampton estate of Big Edie and Little Edie Beale—eccentric aunt and cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radziwill—that was made famous in a 1975 documentary by Albert and David Maysles. After spotlighting the iconic women and their home, the co-hosts unpack its gradual downfall: Over time, the property fell into disrepair and was overrun by cats and raccoons (and perhaps something else not of this realm?). Little Edie held onto the property until two years after her mother died in 1977. Big Edie's spirit is said to watch over the house. Among the believers is author and Washington Post journalist Sally Quinn, who purchased the home from Little Edie in 1979 and swears it's haunted.

*** This episode was divided into two episodes, the second will post tomorrow morningIn our second episode of RICHARD NIXON and WATERGATE: 1973 Enemies at the Gate , rather than dive right into our storyline we decided to take an in-depth two-part look at those enemies at the gate, or at least the important ally the Democratic Party could count on in their campaign to undermine President Nixon, THE PRESS, or more specifically The Washington Post. In this episode, we will look closely at the cozy relationship between Katherine Graham and former President Lyndon Johnson, Sally Quin and Ben Bradlee and the relationship they had to the Kennedy family. The ties between Kennedy and Johnson aid Joe Califano and his client The Washington Post, and on and on. It will definitely leave you with a sickening feeling about the motivations the paper had to go after the man in the White House who had just won a 49 state landslide and gotten our troops and POW's home from a long protracted war in Southeast Asia. But , just in case you think we here at "Bridging the Political Gap" are to swayed by our obvious editorially positive opinion of President Nixon, we will be taking a trip back in time to one of the most sickening displays of liberal journalistic arrogance ever recorded and saved for posterity, (and saved by the very rag-sheet whose journalistic integrity is being called into question, The Washington Post, no less.) They actually hosted a 40th anniversary celebratory event with Elizabeth Drew, Bob Woodward, Carl Bernstein, Ken Hughes, and Ruth Marcus and when they are done you will be filled with absolute disgust. It is all here for you to listen too, the mocking of the President, the totally inaccurate claims, the the obvious disdain, and from Ruth Marcus one of the most outrageously laughable claims ever made about comparing the tapes of Richard Nixon to the apparently saintly Lyndon B. Johnson. It will make you sick.BUT we do invite you to our second part of this analysis of the press, when we look at more of the journalists of the Watergate era, some awful, but not all. The press is after all not a monolithic entity and there are good folks in the media and in the next episode we will introduce you to some of them as well, in part two of "The Press is the Enemy"

Book Vs Movie Urban Cowboy The 1978 Esquire article from Aaron Latham Vs the 1980 John Travolta Film The Margos are ready to rock out in cowboy boots after reading the Aaron Latham Esquire magazine article “The Ballad of the Urban Cowboy: America’s Search for True Grit” from 1978. He also wrote the “Perfect” article from Rolling Stone which became another John Travolta film. (Travolta is our movie lead here.) In 1977 Lathan married CBS News anchor Lesley Stahl and they have one daughter together, Taylor. Check out this article from People magazine which features quite a bit of shade being thrown at Latham’s former friend and Washington Post co-worker Sally Quinn!) Back to the article---it follows the story of Dew & Betty who are married, in their late teens and spend most of their free time at Gilley’s bar in Houston. They fight quite a bit and the women at Gilley’s use the mechanical bull to establish their dominance over sensitive/abusive men who are not sure where they fit in the world. The movie stars John Travolta and Debra Winger (known as Bud and Sissy here) and features amazing music and some pretty ridiculous dialog. (God bless the 80s!) Seriously, this film started a whole wave of country/pop music fans as well as the rise of mechanical bulls in bars around the country. It’s a paper-thin plot somehow stretched to over two hours. Between the article and film--which did the Margos like better? In this ep the Margos discuss: The story behind the Esquire article Aaron Latham’s notes from writing the screenplay Behind the scenes gossip The cast which includes: John Travolta (Bud,) Debra Winger (Sissy,) Scott Glenn (Wes,) Madolyn Smith Osbourne (Pam,) Barry Corbin (Uncle Bob,) Brooke Alderson (Aunt Corene,) Cooper Huckabee (Marshall,) James Gammon (Steve Strange,) and Mickey Gilley.

We all know that Dr. Fauci is the hottest doctor in the nation right now. Today we learned that Dr. Fauci has been a bit of a romantic icon for decades. We talked about how author Sally Quinn used Fauci as inspiration in a romance novel that she penned in 1991. Also on the show, we learned what the Angry Chicken was, we talked about proud moments our parents had, and Connie's cat, Kevin helped with the show. All of that and much more on today's show!

Rone joins the show for the first time bringing the nasty news from Philadelphia! -In the magical mystical land of Indonesia a small trained monkey on a miniature motorcycle attempts to kidnap a toddler in the hopes of trading the child for freedom. -After decades of knowing just how terrible mosquitos The EPA has finally decided to do something to teach the annoying insects a lesson. In what can only be described as the ultimate cucking, the environmental protection agency has granted a private company an experimental permit to release genetically engineered mosquitoes that are unable to produce fertile offspring. Talk about embarrassing. -A five year old Utah boy who was fed up with his Mom NOT buying him a Lamborghini, decided to take matters into his own hands, so he grabbed his three dollar life savings, the keys to the family SUV, and a booster seat and started driving west toward the land of Lambo's, California. In a bizarre incidence of foreshadowing the boy was pulled over by police under suspicion of DUI and was ultimately returned to his probably lazy mother. -We all know Dr. Fauci has the brains, but who knew that he also has the dong? Apparently the doc made such an impression on romance novel writer Sally Quinn in the 90's that she based the lead character of her masturbation novel "Happy Endings" on Fauci. If you're interest, you can currently get a paper back copy for just $989.90 on Amazon. -A confusing California man made sure to honor his civic duty of wearing a mask when he went grocery shopping at a Von's in Santee this past Sunday.

The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Sally Quinn of HBO's THE LIFE OF BEN BRADLEE. The film is an intimate journey through the remarkable life of Washington Post executive editor Ben Bradlee, one of the country's most “dangerous editors,” and the man largely credited with taking down President Richard Nixon in 1974 after the Post broke the Watergate story, the largest political scandal in American history. During a time when the first amendment and the press are under almost constant attack, Bradlee's story, his fortitude and courage in the face of withering criticism, has never been more essential. The cocky, tough-talking, chain-smoking Bradlee came to epitomize the modern newspaper editor ushering in a new era of investigative journalism, unafraid to take on the political establishment and champion the first amendment. Bradlee's career spanned the most critical moments of the second half of the 20th century. As a foreign correspondent for Newsweek in the 50's Bradlee cut his teeth reporting from the frontlines of wars in the Middle East. In Washington, he befriended a young Senator from Massachusetts, John F. Kennedy and gained unprecedented access to the White House. And, by the 70's, he had transformed the Washington Post from a third-rate local paper into a national powerhouse, publishing the Pentagon Papers, breaking Watergate and challenging the New York Times for supremacy. Below/attached, please find all details on the film for your review.

The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Sally Quinn, Author of FINDING MAGIC. FINDING MAGIC is an illuminating memoir by Sally Quinn, widow of former Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee. A journalist, television commentator, and longtime Washington insider, Quinn writes candidly about her life in the nation's capital and reflects on the spiritual journey that ultimately brought deeper meaning to her life. Along Sally's path, you will meet up with folks like Lyndon Johnson and Bill Clinton, Timothy Leary and the Dalai Lama, Bob Woodward and Seymour Hersh, Desmond Tutu and Richard Gere. Quinn, daughter of a 3-star General, had an unusual childhood. Her Scots Presbyterian family dabbled in the occult and the domestic staff practiced voodoo as the family moved around the world. They lived in various places around the world and young Sally attended 22 schools. We learn about her adventures as a journalist, including being shot at during the Vietnam war and covering the Shah of Iran during the last days of his reign. She takes us through her career at the Washington Post, her short tenure as the first female anchor on the CBS Morning News, and falling in love with the Post's executive editor, Ben Bradlee. Quinn reflects on her long marriage, caring for her learning disabled son, and keeping vigil during her beloved husband's illness and death. Through it all, she reports on the lifelong fascination with religion that led her to creating the popular website On Faith, an online community for faith and spirituality.

When author and journalist Sally Quinn needs a moment of peace or clarity, she said, "I walk the labyrinth." A labyrinth walk has long represented a journey or pilgrimage and Quinn uses it for walking meditation -- her late husband, legendary Washington Post executive editor Ben Bradlee, even built one for her at their Maryland estate. Quinn, who launched the Post's 'On Faith' website as a self-proclaimed atheist, talks about her new memoir, "Finding Magic," her notorious D.C. dinner parties and discovering meaning in her life through the years she spent caring for Bradlee as he suffered with dementia, their son, who had heart defect and severe learning disabilities, and her ailing parents.
Sally Quinn, the author of "Finding Magic: A Spiritual Memoir," talks with Recode's Kara Swisher about her new book and her career in journalism. Quinn got her start covering the Washington, D.C., party circuit for the Washington Post under its then-Editor Ben Bradlee, whom she later married. Quinn became an atheist early in her chilhood, but her views of religion evolved over time, leading her to become the Post's religion columnist and one of its first bloggers. She says the inspiration for her book came from how — in Bradlee's final years, when he developed dementia — she realized that taking care of him gave her life meaning. Plus: The real story behind the now-infamous "hexes" Quinn used to cast on people and why Donald Trump's real religion is the "prosperity gospel." Learn more about your ad choices.

Aired Wednesday, 6 September 2017, 8:00 PM ET Sally Quinn - Finding Magic The word Israel, for most, reflects the name of a nation or a people. It derives from the Biblical Patriarch Jacob, who, after “wrestling with an angel” is given the name Israel, meaning “He who struggles with God.” Every sentient human being, whether a believer, agnostic or atheist, can share the name Israel because we all struggle with God. How can we make sense and find meaning and connection with the divine in a world that so often seems devoid of the foundational message of all faiths, love. Or are we actually experiencing and witnessing it every day and perhaps not recognizing it, even when it is right in front of us. My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, famed journalist, commentator and author Sally Quinn, has lived and lives this journey of discovery. Sally is a longtime Washington Post journalist, columnist, television commentator, renowned Washington DC social hostess and founder of the Washington Post website, “On Faith.” She’s the author of several books and joins me this week to discuss her captivating new book, Finding Magic: A Personal Memoir.

When The Washington Post proud profaned Sally Quinn died each morning on the ABC television news, it was seen in Washington . . .that God and divine retribution did indeed exist. Ironically, she liked it so I had had lunch with her and, all of a sudden, I get a call from The Post." Chuck Conconi, Legendary Our Town Journalist and Theatre Critic A Ockershausen: This is Andy Ockershausen and this is Our Town and we're talking with and going to talk with a very, very good friend of many years and a legend in journalism in Washington, D.C., Mr. Chuck Conconi. Thank you for being with us, Chuck. Chuck Conconi: Andy, thank you. I hate for you to say many, many years. I always worry about being known as a legend because legends are great stories but not often true. A Ockershausen: So many people know the name Conconi and know you but they don't know and I did not know until we started talking here today where you were born and where you went to school and this was a surprise to me. I always thought you were a native. Chuck Conconi's Italian Immigrant Parents and Ohio Coal Mines Chuck Conconi: No, I'm not a native. I grew up in a town called New Philadelphia, Ohio. My parents were ... Mother and father only had eighth grade educations. They were an immigrant Italian kind of family and I ... They all worked in the coal mines. Every male in my family, my father, my uncles, they all worked in the coal mines because when they first brought the first immigrants over from Italy, they advertised there's jobs in America when they got here. It was the coal mines and so they spent their time in the mines. I was the first, I think, male in my family to escape the mines. A Ockershausen: The coal mines in Ohio or Pennsylvania? Chuck Conconi: Oh yes, no, no, coal mines in Ohio. Around this area around New Philadelphia, Ohio. It was sort of in Northeastern Ohio but it's big coal country. Sometimes the ceilings are low, I mean some of them, what I'm saying is the roof is only like four foot so you're working bent over all the time and they worked in the ... In the old days when they carried these carbide lamps with flames in them and you always think about, God, how awful that was because you have methane that goes in the mines and boom! My father once told me, he said, "You don't know what darkness is like until something happens and it all goes. You lose all sense of up or down or sideways." A Ockershausen: Oh my God. From Business to Journalism at Kent State University Chuck Conconi: So luckily I was the first in my family to go to college. I went to Kent State University in Ohio because ... A Ockershausen: A wonderful school. Chuck Conconi: Yeah it's a wonderful school and I had no ... A Ockershausen: Is that a state school? Chuck Conconi: It's a state school. I almost flunked out. I was just an abysmal student. I didn't know what I was doing and finally ... You're going to find this hard to believe. I thought the only thing you could be is an engineer or a businessman, believe it or not, and I knew I couldn't be an engineer because my math skills were abysmal. So I thought I'll try to be a businessman. I kept flunking economics and all those courses and finally, I mean desperation, I have been in my third quarter on academic probation, my last and out the door, and I pick up the school catalog and I'm paging through it and I stumble onto something, School of Journalism. I thought I didn't know you could major in something called journalism. Believe it or not, I didn't. So I went over and the guy took a chance on me and everything clicked, changed everything in my life and I became a Dean's List student and then I went out to Northwestern Graduate School and my first working experience was in Chicago.
This week on StoryWeb: Albert and David Maysles’s film Grey Gardens Watching the 1975 documentary film Grey Gardens is like slowing down to watch an accident in the next lane over. You know you shouldn’t, but you simply can’t help yourself. And if you’re really a rubbernecker like me (and apparently like tens of thousands of other Americans), you line up to watch the 2009 HBO Jessica Lange/Drew Barrymore biopic, which provides the backstory to the original film. Clearly, the 1975 documentary filmmakers Albert and David Maysles were on to something. What is it about Big Edie and Little Edie, the mother-daughter duo who languished in squalor as their formerly grand Hamptons estate, Grey Gardens, fell into disrepair? Why do we want to watch mentally ill, codependent hoarders living out the exact opposite of The Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous? The Kardashians, they’re not. The Maysles brothers’ idea for a documentary was spurred initially by their interest in the Bouvier family and then by national reports of the deplorable conditions in which the two women lived. In the summer of 1972, Big Edie’s niece Jacqueline Onassis intervened in an effort to make the house more habitable. When the Maysles brothers approached the two women – Edith Ewing Bouvier Beale and her daughter, Edith Bouvier Beale – about making the film, both Big Edie and Little Edie readily agreed. Ever ones for performing in the spotlight, the two women immediately fell in line, presumably because they thought this could finally be Little Edie’s big break into show business. It’s true that Grey Gardens was once a truly lavish estate, a fourteen-room mansion that could hold its own among the other Long Island estates in the Hamptons. And yes, it’s true that Big Edie was aunt to Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis and had fond childhood memories of her niece. And it’s even true that Jackie came to Grey Gardens to visit Big Edie and Little Edie after their surroundings had begun to rot around them and that she stepped in with financial assistance to help rectify the situation. The Edies’ pretensions were grounded – at least in part – in some reality. But they also fancied themselves performers, with their shared sights set on Little Edie making it as a showgirl. When Little Edie decides at the last minute not to pursue her audition with Max Gordon, a successful Broadway producer, Big Edie blames her severely for blowing her big chance – or perhaps Little Edie accuses Big Edie of pressuring her to move back to Grey Gardens. It’s something they never quite resolve between themselves, but both ultimately believe that Little Edie lost her chance at the big time. Both women obviously have a flair for the dramatic, and Little Edie enjoys getting up outlandish costumes from scraps of clothing and fabric she finds around Grey Gardens. It is very much as if she is a four-year-old playing dress-up with the grown-up clothes and shoes. And even though she is in her thirties when she does this, she is – in her peculiar Little Edie way – provocative, charming, compelling. We can’t help but watch. If watching the original documentary and the HBO film isn’t enough for you, you might want to visit Grey Gardens Online, a website devoted to Big Edie and Little Edie. You should also check out Sara and Rebekah Maysles’s book Grey Gardens, which includes illustrations, photographs, film stills, production notes, and the like along with transcripts of the two women’s stories. The book comes with a 60-minute CD, which contains conversations with the Beales and their friends, songs and poetry recited by the two Edies, and audio of the Beales during and after watching the film for the first time. The New York Times provides an interesting account of the property itself, noting that Little Edie sold the mansion in 1979 to Sally Quinn and Benjamin C. Bradlee, former editor of The Washington Post. Quinn and Bradlee loved to entertain, and their summers at Grey Gardens found them hosting the likes of Lauren Bacall and Norman Lear. And if you visit the “5 Things You Didn’t Know About the Classic Documentary Grey Gardens,” you’ll even learn that, for a cool $250,000, you can rent out the restored mansion for the summer. HBO’s official Grey Gardens page has links to short video clips and stills from the film, including a featurette on the making of the 2009 film. Visit thestoryweb.com/Maysles for links to all these resources and to watch clips from the original 1975 documentary. Then watch some of the backstory from the 2009 HBO film, when the two Edies and Grey Gardens were in their prime.

When Theodore Roosevelt became president in 1901, his eldest child, 17-year-old Alice, rose quickly to celebrity status. The public loved hearing about the exploits of the poker-playing, gum-chewing “Princess Alice,” who kept a small green snake in her purse. By the time she died at age 96, Alice, whose Dupont Circle home included an embroidered pillow with the phrase “If you can't say something good about someone, sit right here by me,” was such an institution in DC politics that she was known as The Other Washington Monument.Joining me in this episode is Dr. Michael Patrick Cullinane, Professor of U.S. History and the Lowman Walton Chair of Theodore Roosevelt Studies at Dickinson State University in North Dakota, author of several books on Theodore Roosevelt, and host of the The Gilded Age and Progressive Era Podcast.Our theme song is Frogs Legs Rag, composed by James Scott and performed by Kevin MacLeod, licensed under Creative Commons.
