Former NBC News Correspondent and son of late Meet the Press Moderator Tim Russert, Luke Russert joins Mosheh to reflect on his time abroad following his fathers death and his new book “Look For Me There” inspired by his journey.

Russert immediately joined NBC at age 22 following his father’s 2008 death, only to realize a few years later that he had not fully mourned his dad and wasn’t sure what he actually wanted to do with his life.

In this conversation, we discuss his journey around Washington and then around the world as he navigated international politics and his own emotions and feelings of inadequacy.

Mosheh and Russert discuss the state of the media, politics and how travel can help give you perspective.

Getting to the facts–and cutting out bias–is something we are big fans of at Mo News. 

In our latest episode, Mosheh is joined by Dr. Jess Steier from the Unbiased Science Podcast to unpack the complexities of interpreting scientific and health studies.

Together, we explore the common pitfalls of media reporting on health, including what we know about the latest studies on organic produce, aspartame, and GMOs, among other hot topics. This conversation helps listeners better understand the nuances behind the headlines in scientific reporting, and how you can better read between the lines.

We also talk about eastern vs. western medicine as well as growing public distrust in institutions like the FDA and CDC, and how some of the agencies’ mistakes during COVID led to the current situation.

EP 86: Unbiased Science! Cutting through misinformation when it comes to health and medical headlines

As we celebrate Mother’s Day, this episode dives into the state of moms in America with an interview with Neha Ruch, founder of Mother Untitled (MU). She is also the author of forthcoming book, "The Power Pause,” looking at redefining stay at home motherhood. 
Neha talks to Mosheh about how the perception of stay at home moms has transformed from a traditional archetype to a dynamic role that blends family life with personal and professional fulfillment. 
We delve into new data MU has collected from thousands of moms across the country, with a focus on how they balance professional, family and mental health goals. The conversation focuses on how women are taking intentional breaks in their careers to focus on family without losing sight of their own ambitions. It is no longer a black or white (full-time work or full-time SAHM) phenomenon, but there are many shades of gray when it comes to modern work and family.

EP 85: Redefining “Stay At Home Moms” - Talking Career, Family, Relationships with Mother Untitled’s Neha Ruch

Record-breaking heat, storms, rising sea levels, and melting glaciers are among the impacts of climate change. 
But today’s conversation focuses on the actions that can serve as an antidote to anxiety.
In his new book, Life As We Know It (Can Be), CNN Chief Climate Correspondent Bill Weir says we can counter fear with knowledge and hope.
His book explores stories from the front lines of environmental change, providing both sobering insights and hopeful perspectives on innovative solutions, including where progress is being made. 
The conversation with Mosheh highlights Weir’s journeys around the world, sheds light on practical climate solutions and also critically examines where the climate change movement has failed. We break down the good, the bad, and the surprising, in this just-the-facts conversation.

EP 84: Finding Hope In Climate Change: A Conversation About The Future

As part of our series of behind the scenes podcasts about Alex and Mosheh’s pregnancy journey in 2023, we spoke with one of the midwives who cared for her. 
This episode features an interview with Christina McPherson, a certified nurse-midwife, about the midwifery care model, and the state of maternal health in the US. We discuss everything from the increasing C-section rates in the US, the history of why the use of midwives is much higher in the rest of the world vs. the US and the overall holistic care model. It turns out that we conducted this conversation just days before Alex delivered Baby Olivia. 
Alex shares a lot of resources and tips during the conversation, which she started putting together here. (Resources Page). She also has saved fertility & pregnancy story highlights on her Instagram page @alsall. You can learn more about midwives at www.midwife.org.

EP 83: Call the Midwife: A Conversation About Maternal Healthcare

Americans have never had access to so many drugs, and yet we continue to see rising issues when it comes to mental and physical health in this country. We dive into what’s going wrong in this conversation with Dr. Drew Pinsky.  

Dr. Drew, who is a board-certified physician in internal and addiction medicine, became a household name while hosting the iconic radio show “Loveline.” He now has multiple platforms, shows and podcasts. 

Mosheh and Dr. Drew talk about the state of mental health, the state of the American medical system and why so many people are falling through the cracks. We also explore the state of modern drugs, including some new research related to the dangers of psychedelics and modern cannabis.

Dr. Drew also shares valuable lessons from the pandemic, when he almost got canceled for asking some basic questions.
