  • An absolute must if you’re looking for an objective view on the headlines

    Not sure how Mo News found me but I’m sure glad our paths crossed. If you’re tired of the bias of the news on the right and the news on the left, Mo News will refresh your ears. Mo News will give you an objective run down of the day’s headlines (when both sides accuse you of bias, it’s a sure bet you’re landing in the middle). Jill and Moshe are careful to present the issues from both sides and do so with the perfect balance of levity and gravity. It’s obvious these two seasoned journalists enjo... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Interview - The Postpartum Mental Health Gap: Lessons From The Clancy Trial
Q: What would good postpartum care look like for every woman?
Postpartum care should be more like prenatal care, with routine mental health screening, access to counselors or therapists, and a designated point person to coordinate care and support over the first year after birth.
Trump Mail-In Ballot Fight; Paris Knife Attack; Records Measles Cases; Savannah Guthrie’s New Plea; Millennials Making Minivans Cool Again
Q: Is abolishing prisons and eliminating borders part of the DSA's core long-term program?
Yes, it is framed as part of a long-term program, with the guest acknowledging the magnitude and constitutional hurdles of such reforms.
Trump Mail-In Ballot Fight; Paris Knife Attack; Records Measles Cases; Savannah Guthrie’s New Plea; Millennials Making Minivans Cool Again
Q: Do you think abolishing the Senate is a feasible long-term goal for the DSA platform?
The guest describes it as part of a broader, long-term program that would require constitutional amendments, and notes that while it represents an extreme reform, it reflects the scale of the movement's ambitions.
Interview - Why Congress Is So Divided—And One Idea to Fix It
Q: When did you first realize this was something worth building and who is the intended audience here?
Brad explains his observations from living abroad and recognizing a need for a tool that helps citizens understand and compare lawmakers on collaboration rather than partisanship, aiming to engage the ~100 million eligible yet non-voting Americans and provide a practical on-ramp to civic participation.
Interview - Building Resilience: The Key to Better Health | A Conversation With Dr. Tara Narula
Q: What are the core pillars of resilience you advocate in your book?
The eight pillars include acceptance, flexible thinking, hope, faith, love, purpose, social connection, and healthy lifestyle choices like exercise and sleep, all of which can be practiced to build resilience.
