Tripp Whetsell "Norman Lear – His Life and Times"

from Chatter on Books

Chatter rolls with Claude, David, Torie, and Jamie.  They break down the Washington Capitals and answer listener email about favorite books beyond Chatter (who has time?).  Nobody wins the pop quiz on banned books but all agree none should be (banned, that is). According to PEN America, this year over 10,000 books were banned in public schools, nearly triple the number from 2023.   Author, historian, journalist, ghostwriter Tripp Whetsell zooms in to share "Norman Lear – His Life and Times."  It's an intense look at the depth and breadth of one of television's most important figures.
