One of my favorite jobs of the many jobs I do is going on KCRW’s “Press Play” to talk movies on Friday mornings with the great Madeleine Brand. This time, I got to turn the tables and ask her the questions. Eventually we will have a conversation that doesn’t involve mics and headphones! Madeleine and I talk about growing up in Los Angeles, her many years as a reporter and anchor at NPR, how the Trump presidency has changed the way she approaches her show and her activities outside the studio, which include painting. Madeleine is one of the coolest, smartest women I know, so I was thrilled to spend some extra time with her. Hope you enjoy our conversation, too.
What’s the name of the song that’s played at the beginning of the podcast? As always, great interview Ms. Lemire! 🙂
Great chat. Thank you.
