Zibby speaks to reporter, speaker, and bestselling culture writer David Sax about his approachable, witty, and provocative new book The Future is Analog: How to Create a More Human World. David talks about the pandemic and the lesson it taught us: digital technology has limits and cannot replace the value of physical spaces (like schools, libraries, coffee shops, and parks) and the authentic connections we create in them. He also talks about his fascinating career in journalism, his love of typewriters, and how he turns the questions that nag him into eye-opening articles and books.

Previous Episode
Zibby interviews CNN entertainment reporter Chloe Melas and her mother Elizabeth Murphy about their late grandfather and father Frank Murphy’s book, Luck of the Draw: My Story of the Air War in Europe, which tells the epic true story of a WWII hero who cheated death for months in a German POW camp after being shot out of a plane. Elizabeth shares how shocked her family was when her father finally decided to share his story after years of silence, and Chloe describes the tremendous, years-long process of re-publishing the book. She also tells the story of the 100th Bomb Group (the Bloody Hundreth), highlighting her grandfather’s pivotal role and tremendous courage. Finally, the two share how thrilled they are for Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg’s TV series Masters of the Air, which will feature Frank Murphy as a character!

Author Tanya Frank joins Zibby to discuss her gut-wrenching and compassionate new book Zig-Zag Boy: A Memoir of Madness and Motherhood, which chronicles her son Zach’s sudden and inexplicable psychotic break at age 19 and her journey to accepting the mysteries of his altered states. Tanya talks about the day of the psychotic break and what her son had been like before it (precocious, kind, and UCLA-bound), her fear that their move to the US impacted him negatively, and her desperate quest to find an answer. She also shares her thoughts on our flawed medical system and archaic mental health laws and gives an update on Zach.
