On this week's show, we hear a talk given by Mickey Huff and Nolan Higdon.

They spoke about their new book, "United States of Distraction," a look at 

the five decades of corrosive political and media changes which made it possible

for a candidate like Donald Trump to capture the presidency. They spoke at

the Hillside Club in Berkeley, California on October 22, in a benefit for KPFA-FM.
