As we experience the hottest summer in recorded history, we have a conversation with White House National Climate Adviser, Ali Zaidi, about what the administration is doing to combat climate change. Despite all the recent negative headlines, Zaidi explains to Mosheh why he remains an optimist and the progress that has been made globally in recent years. 
He also discusses the White House strategy regarding clean energy, why electric cars are cleaner than gas-powered vehicles, whether climate change has a “branding problem,” and the latest tax breaks and incentives for Americans adopting clean energy alternatives. 
This conversation comes as the White House gets set to mark the one year anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes billions of dollars in climate initiatives as the administration tries to hit ambitious CO2 reduction targets.

As much as we all want to move on from COVID, there are so many important lessons we need to learn from the many failures of the US response and fixing things for the future. 
Two award-winning journalists are out with a new book, The Big Fail, that examines how the U.S. so badly bungled the pandemic and the lessons learned. 
Co-author Bethany McLean joins Mosheh and breaks down what their reporting found. The book is critical of the left and the right, including Fauci, Trump, Newsom, DeSantis, the CDC, the teachers’ union—pretty much everyone. The book runs the numbers and the final assessment on masks, the vaccine, school closures, the lockdowns that challenge conservative and liberal thinking four years later.

EP 89: A Big Fail: How America Got The Pandemic Response So Wrong

Between the growing substance abuse and addiction epidemic, the explosion of fentanyl on the streets, and the move by half the country to legalize marijuana, there are a number of drug headlines in the news.  
In this episode we speak with the US Drug Czar, Dr. Rahul Gupta, who runs the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. In our conversation, we discussed the administration proposal to reschedule marijuana as a Schedule III drug and what that means. Dr. Gupta provides insight into how new data and the shifting legal landscape led to the decision. 
The interview also tackles the pressing issue of the overdose crisis, with a focus on the rise of fentanyl. Dr. Gupta compares Narcan to a fire extinguisher, and says every American should have a dose in their home. 
He also shares his perspective on the federal government's strategy to combat this epidemic, including harm reduction efforts, law enforcement initiatives, and public health campaigns. This episode offers an in-depth look at the multifaceted approach needed to address one of the nation's most urgent public health challenges.

EP 88: A New Approach on Marijuana, the Fight Against Fentanyl, and the State of the Overdose Crisis – A Conversation With the US Drug Czar

We plunge into the fascinating world of freediving with world-renowned diver Will Trubridge and explore the extreme sport that takes athletes to unimaginable depths with a single breath. Will shares his incredible journey, shedding light on the mental and physical challenges of holding his breath for more than 4 minutes underwater (He says he can hold it for more than 8 minutes if he stays stationary.)
He discussed the techniques he uses to "turn off his brain" and achieve a state of focus during his dives. We also delve into his experience being featured in the recent Netflix documentary "The Deepest Breath," which highlights the intense and often perilous world of competitive freediving.
Will also reveals some of his methods and training secrets, offering insights into how even Mosheh could potentially hold his breath for several minutes underwater. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in pushing the boundaries of human potential and understanding the depths of the human mind.

EP 87: Deep Dive Into Freediving: Lessons From Holding Your Breath For Several Minutes Under Water

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.
