Homewreckers: How a Gang of Wall Street Kingpins, Hedge Fund Magnates, Crooked Banks, and Vulture Capitalists Suckered Millions Out of Their Homes and Demolished the American Dream!
From the publisher: In Homewreckers, Glantz recounts the transformation of straightforward lending into a morass of slivered and combined mortgage “products” that could be bought and sold, accompanied by a shift in priorities and a loosening of regulations and laws that made it good business to lend money to those who wouldn’t be able to repay. Among the men who laughed their way to the bank: Trump cabinet members Steve Mnuchin and Wilbur Ross, Trump pal and confidant Tom Barrack, and billionaire Republican cash cow Steve Schwarzman. Homewreckers also brilliantly weaves together the stories of those most ravaged by the housing crisis. The result is an eye-opening expose of the greed that decimated millions and enriched a gluttonous few.

Embracing Risk To Change The World
Thom reads from Pat Mitchell's Becoming a Dangerous Woman: Embracing Risk to Change the World.
An intimate and inspiring memoir and call to action from Pat Mitchell -- groundbreaking media icon, global advocate for women's rights, and co-founder and curator of TEDWomen.
Pat Mitchell is a serial ceiling smasher. The first woman to own and host a nationally syndicated daily talk show, and the first female president of CNN productions and PBS, Mitchell has been lauded as a powerful changemaker and a relentless advocate for women and girls.
In Becoming a Dangerous Woman, Mitchell shares her own path to power, from a childhood spent on a cotton farm in the South to her unprecedented rise in media and global affairs. Full of intimate, fascinating stories, such as an encounter with Fidel Castro while wearing a swimsuit, and traveling to war zones with Eve Ensler and Glenn, Becoming a Dangerous Woman is an inspiring call to arms for women who are ready to dismantle the barriers they see in their own lives.

How Corporate Media Led To Authoritarianism [[w/ David Brock)
American media is working as a propaganda arm of the oligarchs, threatening our very democracy!
Billionaire owned media is firing anyone who disagrees with their conservative views, leaving only voices favoring oligarchy, billionaires and Donald Trump.
The broken conservative owned media simply don’t allow progressive programming on their stations. How can these stations claim to represent the media with such biased broadcasting?
For instance, Craig Silverman was taken off-air in the middle of his program, when he didn’t toe the company line on the Trump impeachment inquiry.
David Brock from Media Matters for America joined Thom to discuss why our media is broken, completely broken.
