Milt was joined in studio by Steve Bernas, president of the Better Business Bureau for Chicago and Northern Illinois and David OToole of the Federal Trade Commission. The discussion was all about the many scams, ripoffs, confidence games, and more tools the underworld employs to separate you from your money. As the saying goes, if it sounds too good to be true...

Milt took this occasion--the 150th anniversary of Lincolns assassination--to look back at the life, death, and legacy of our 16th president. Joined in studio by Loyola Universitys professor of history Theodore Karamanski and Daniel Weinberg, owner of the Abraham Lincoln Book Shop. Also joining, James Swanson and Louis P. Masur of Rutgers University. You will find the musical accompaniment of Civil War songs from both Union and Confederacy an added bonus.

Some of the finest minds in academia are right here in Chicago. Dr. James Garbarino is one such mind. His latest book, Listening to Killers, is a touching, heartbreaking, groundbreaking, and intense look at what goes on inside the mind of those who kill. Primarily working with children or young adults who have killed, Dr. Garbarino explores the social factors that often compel those who perpetrate such crimes to a life of violence. Who is at fault? The killer alone? Or is there much, much more to consider?

As many of you know, Milt is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Chicago. Having spent so many decades in the field, hes often hesitant to discuss it. But this fascinating new book by the highly regarded Dr. Jeffrey Lieberman proved too much to ignore. Listen to these two amazing minds discuss the mind itself along with the history of psychology and psychiatry. Youll here a brand new take on the legacy of Sigmund Freud that could change the way that we view the field. Also discussed: Are psychiatrists in the 21st century too quick to prescribe psychotropic drugs?

Milt is joined by Dr. Charles Lipson of the University of Chicago, Scott Stantis, the renowned cartoonist at the Chicago Tribune and our esteemed friend Joseph Morris. Topics: Presidential Election 2016, the continuing standoff between Iran and Israel and the reelection of Rahm Emanuel.
