    Oct 1 2024

    LEGENDARY Journalist Connie Chung Shattered the Chains of her Cultural Traditions and Navigated the News Waters in a Sea of Men.

    Now she's opening up about being sexually abused by her doctor as a teenager, her deep desire to be "one of the guys", and why she thinks current news media is in the toilet.

    She reveals how she conquered the male-dominated realms of journalism and politics, the clever ways she combated sexism and racism in the newsroom, how she managed to keep her emotions in check while delivering impartial news that shaped our world, and her struggles with tying her self worth to her career.

    Hear about Connie's wild stakeouts during the Watergate scandal, the reason she was forced to cover controversial figures like Tonya Harding & OJ Simpson, and her longtime marriage to daytime talk show host Maury Povich!

    Connie Chung also breaks down:

    - Her parents’ arranged marriage at a very early age & the loss of her older siblings

    - How she broke out of the mindset of the traditional Chinese caste system

    - Dangers of being seen as a feminist when she began & what feminism mean to her now

    - Her first big news break

    - Importance of neutrality & credible fact-checking in the news media

    - Challenges women in media face today

    Dive into the incredible journey of a unique & talented artist who balanced the high expectations of her family and culture with her passion for art....AND hear the jaw-dropping story of how she quit acting JUST BEFORE landing her iconic breakout role in ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK.

    Uzo discusses her fascinating approach to portraying Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren (many people's favorite character on OITNB!) who struggled with mental health challenges, what it was like to break barriers in the early days of Netflix, and why she believes we should never reduce people to their past mistakes.

Uzo also details what it was like to grow up in the only Nigerian family in her New England town, navigating the struggles of everyday microaggressions and the heavy burden of being the “model minority.”

A great listen no matter who you are

Mayim covers a variety of topics, typically mental health related, but always from a scientific perspective. She is open and honest about her own experiences which translates to the listener feeling like she is your new best friend. She's funny, intelligent and though provoking.

Fantastic episode. Thank you Mayim and Leslie!

This episode had me weeping. Thank you Mayim and Leslie for sharing his life story, struggle with addiction, depression, coming out as gay and living his life on his terms in a homophobic society. He lived it all with such grace and love for others that Leslie is truly an inspiration. I only wish he had more time on this planet. <3

Such an amazing concept

I love that these episodes are well articulated and intelligent. I have a “wow moment” in nearly every episode and it has opened up many new subjects that I can relate to and research. The episodes contain so much information from many voices and points of view but are easily communicated with humor and empathy. Love it

Love the episode with Kunal.

I HAD to take notes. I can not tell you how many times I have listened to it. Honestly I take notes on alot of your episodes. However, with that one I pulled over to take notes.
