    Madeleine Albright

    Madeleine Albright was a pioneer in American politics. In 1997, she became the nation’s first female secretary of state and, at the time, the highest ranking female official in U.S. history. On this edition of Radio Times Rewind, we go back to Marty Moss Coane’s 2003 interview with Albright, as she reflected on her memoir, “Madame Secretary.” Listening back is like jumping in a time machine — offering a fascinating portrait of how foreign policy evolved pre and post 9/11, and before President Trump.

    George Carlin

    George Carlin has been ranked among the greatest stand-up comedians of all time. He started with a clean-cut, suit-and-tie act in the 1960s, but then morphed into a symbol of the counter-culture known for scathing commentary on language and politics. On this edition of Radio Times Rewind, we go back to Marty Moss Coane’s 1997 interview with Carlin, where he discusses his evolution as a comic, his blunt desire for fame, and his take on the famed “seven dirty words.”

    Wilt Chamberlain

    For the debut episode of Radio Times Rewind, we’re digging back into Marty Moss Coane’s 1991 interview with the basketball legend and 76ers champion. Chamberlain had a book out at the time called “A View From Above,” and he joined Marty in studio for an hour of live conversation that ranged from his high school days in Overbrook, to his rivalry with Celtics great Bill Russell, to his view on how money has impacted sports, and, yes, his account of his many sexual adventures.
