Mo News - The Interview @mosheh / tentwentytwo

As part of our series of behind the scenes podcasts about Alex and Mosheh’s pregnancy journey in 2023, we spoke with one of the midwives who cared for her. 
This episode features an interview with Christina McPherson, a certified nurse-midwife, about the midwifery care model, and the state of maternal health in the US. We discuss everything from the increasing C-section rates in the US, the history of why the use of midwives is much higher in the rest of the world vs. the US and the overall holistic care model. It turns out that we conducted this conversation just days before Alex delivered Baby Olivia. 
Alex shares a lot of resources and tips during the conversation, which she started putting together here. (Resources Page). She also has saved fertility & pregnancy story highlights on her Instagram page @alsall. You can learn more about midwives at www.midwife.org.

Americans have never had access to so many drugs, and yet we continue to see rising issues when it comes to mental and physical health in this country. We dive into what’s going wrong in this conversation with Dr. Drew Pinsky.  

Dr. Drew, who is a board-certified physician in internal and addiction medicine, became a household name while hosting the iconic radio show “Loveline.” He now has multiple platforms, shows and podcasts. 

Mosheh and Dr. Drew talk about the state of mental health, the state of the American medical system and why so many people are falling through the cracks. We also explore the state of modern drugs, including some new research related to the dangers of psychedelics and modern cannabis.

Dr. Drew also shares valuable lessons from the pandemic, when he almost got canceled for asking some basic questions.

So much news coverage is devoted to the president, but it turns out that first ladies have had an incredibly influential and undercovered role in many White Houses. At the same time, it is an often thankless job that receives a lot of scrutiny. 

Mosheh sits down with New York Times White House correspondent and author, Katie Rogers, exploring her new book, ‘American Woman: The Transformation of the Modern First Lady.’ 

In our conversation, we dive straight into Jill Biden's role in the White House, especially when it comes to managing crises, from international wars to the struggles of Hunter Biden–including what it means that she is the family “grudge holder.” 

This edition also delves into how several other recent first ladies—Melania Trump, Michelle Obama, Laura Bush, and Hillary Clinton–how each viewed their roles over the last 30 years, and some surprising revelations about their time in the White House.

What is the ideal temp to wash your clothes? Do you actually need to separate whites from colors? What is the best way to pre-treat clothes? Should you use any setting besides ‘normal?’ How do you get out toddler stains?!

We addressed dozens of your questions in this ‘news you can use’ conversation with Procter & Gamble Senior Scientist Sammy Wang. She helps lead teams creating products like Downy and Tide. Mo News recently visited P&G HQ for a tour of their fabric division to get a behind the scenes glimpse. (See details on Instagram) 

In this sponsored conversation that first took place as an Instagram Live on @mosheh, we take your questions about the laundry process. The conversation took place just after #nationallaundryday #downypartner

This episode is a deep-dive into the most streamed documentary in America: ‘Quiet on Set.’ The series focuses on Nickelodeon, and startling claims of a toxic work environment for child stars and abuse at the network. 
Mosheh is joined by Kate Taylor, senior correspondent at Business Insider, to explore the unsettling realities unveiled in the documentary. Her reporting and investigation in 2022 first revealed a number of issues, and inspired the making of ‘Quiet on Set.’ 
Taylor takes us behind the scenes into how she was first tipped off to the story, what she learned in her reporting, the making of the documentary and who would speak with her and who would not. We discuss what policies and laws need to change to ensure child actors are working in a safe environment and pedophiles cannot work around kids.

One of the most common questions we get at Mo News is related to media bias and finding trustworthy, non-partisan sources. 

Mosheh sits down with Vanessa Otero, the founder of AdFontes and the creator behind the influential Media Bias Chart–which breaks down thousands of news sources based both on political bias and reliability.

We delve into the complexities of bias, media bias and the reasons as to why it has gotten worse in recent years. Otero shares her expert insights on the landscape of news media, highlighting their process behind ranking news organizations, including a discussion on Mo News' placement in AdFontes' latest charts. This conversation gets into why “middle” is not always best and offers a unique perspective on discerning news quality and bias.
