In today\u2019s podcast, we\u2019ll focus on a wonderful interview conducted by Tom Brokaw just 3 days before the President left office. This is not a gotcha interview or a hard-hitting challenge to the president \u2013 rather, Brokaw decided to focus on personal issues. You\u2019ll hear the President reflect on his mother\u2019s religious beliefs, his father\u2019s alcoholism, careers in radio, acting, and politics, and reflections on his eight years as president.\xa0As for Brokaw, he was a longtime news anchor and senior correspondent who spent his entire career with NBC news. Beginning the Los Angeles Bureau where he covered Ronald Reagan\u2019s first run for public office, he moved to the nation\u2019s capital in 1973. Ultimately after 55 years with NBC news he retired at the age of 80.
