Show notes

We will be marking one year since the beginning of the chaotic & tragic U.S. exit from Afghanistan next month. The rushed withdrawal brought America’s 20-year war to an abrupt end, allowing the Taliban to rapidly retake control of Afghanistan.

Mo News starts our anniversary coverage with a conversation with a US war veteran about their remarkable experience in battle and tough recovery here at home.

Mosh spoke to former Army Staff Sgt. Benjamin Sledge, who served tours in Iraq and Afghanistan and was awarded the Bronze Star and Purple Heart. He has a new book out, called "Where Cowards Go to Die," - a brutally honest portrait of war, bravery, and sacrifice. Sledge speaks candidly about the trauma of war and the mental health toll it has taken on tens of thousands of veterans.

EP 9: Inside ‘The Dropout’: How Elizabeth Holmes Pulled Off The Fraud Jul 09, 2022

Show notes

How did the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire lose it all so quickly? This conversation takes you inside the rise and fall of Elizabeth Holmes, Sunny Balwani and Theranos.

Mosheh speaks with Rebecca Jarvis, ABC News' Chief Business, Technology & Economics Correspondent and creator of ‘'The Dropout' podcast. Jarvis also executive produced the Hulu series that premiered this series.

Jarvis talks about what inspired her to create the podcast, Holmes' legacy for women in Silicon Valley, how she was kicked off Theranos' campus while reporting on the company and how much the Hulu series mirrors real life events (90-95% accurate, including the green juice and maybe even the dancing!).

EP 8: Crypto Is Dead. Or Is It? Jul 07, 2022

Show notes

Summer is heating up but we're deep in a "crypto winter." Cryptocurrencies are having their worst year in a decade. The leading currency, Bitcoin, is down more than 70% from it's all-time high last November and the overall crypto market has lost nearly $2 trillion in value. At the same time, some crypto banks and so-called "stable coins" have gone bankrupt and several companies are laying off workers.

Crypto skeptics are reveling and saying "I told you so," while the hardcore HODL'ers say it will come back even stronger! So what is going to happen?

Mosheh interviews crypto-journalist and the author of the "Crypto Uncomplicated" newsletter, Zack Guzman. They talk about crypto’s past, what popped the bubble, how bad it might get, how to keep your investment safe and what the future looks like in this space. Guzman previously reported for Yahoo Finance and CNBC. His bottom line: We are finding out who is "swimming naked” and only the best crypto projects will survive this bloodletting.

EP 6: How The World Can Save Itself with Ian Bremmer Jun 29, 2022

Show notes

After several weeks focused on the US, we are going global in our conversation this week as the US and major western powers hold meetings at the G7 and NATO.

Eurasia Group founder and political scientist Ian Bremmer has a new book out, where he lays out the challenges and solutions to what he says are the three biggest crises facing the world: climate change, pandemics and disruptive technology.

A leading thinker on global affairs, Bremmer talks to Mosheh about why he is an optimist and how the world can prevent catastrophe.

In his new NY Times best-seller, "The Power of Crisis," Bremmer draws lessons from global challenges of the past 100 years—including the most recent pandemic—to show how the global community might respond. He also talks about the latest in Ukraine, what is next for China, Iran and the state of the Middle East in the conversation.

EP 5: Jan Crawford on the Abortion Decision Jun 27, 2022

Show notes

As we continue to determine the fallout of Friday's Supreme Court decision, Mosheh speaks to CBS Chief Legal Correspondent Jan Crawford for insight into the rulings and what they mean for the future of abortion in America as well as issues like same-sex marriage, IVF and contraception.

Crawford has nearly three decades of experience covering the court. She has a law degree from the University of Chicago and has reported on the Supreme Court for the Chicago Tribune, PBS, ABC and CBS News. When Mosheh last spoke to her in January, she predicted that the court would overturn Roe v Wade and so there was no one better to get perspective on how the decision went down.

Crawford brings clarity to the various opinions, why Roberts is effectively on an island, why Justice Thomas brought up things like same sex marriage and contraception in his solo opinion and whether it even matters. She then goes into what the various states might do next and brings a fascinating perspective to the history of the original Roe decision and how it may have actually hurt abortion rights long-term.

They also spoke about whether cameras may come to the Supreme Court, concerns about the safety of the justices, the fate of the leak investigation and what to make of the accusations the justices lied in their confirmation hearings. It's a must-listen.

EP 4: Supreme Court Strikes Down Roe v. Wade with Sharon McMahon Jun 25, 2022

Show notes

The Supreme Court on Friday overruled Roe v Wade, eliminating the constitutional right to abortion. It is a landmark ruling that will send the issue back to the states and create a patchwork of laws, as well as reshape the nation's politics.

Mosheh spoke with Sharon McMahon (@sharonsaysso) hours after the decision to break down the ruling, its implications on abortion law across the country and the future of the Supreme Court. They also go into new polling showing three out of four Americans no longer trust the court and how this decision could impact future elections. McMahon is a former government and law teacher turned Instagram star, who has built a community of nearly 1 million on the platform. She breaks down complex topics in history, law and politics in an easy-to-understand way. The conversation also took place on the @mosheh Instagram page and is available to watch there.

Show notes

As we mark Pride Month and the anniversary of the Supreme Court's ruling that legalized gay marriage, Mo News looks at the incredible history and journey of the issue.

In less than 25 years, public opinion and laws shifted on same-sex marriage at record speed. Mosheh speaks with journalist Sasha Issenberg, the author of "The Engagement," which documents how the issue got to the nation's highest court.

They spoke about the twists and turns in the struggle--including the debate within the LGBTQ community whether to even pursue marriage equality. Sasha discusses the role of politics, corporations, Hollywood, religious groups and money in the lead up to the landmark 2015 court decision.
