#147 Meryl Streep Interview, The Post

Meryl Streep Interview, The Post The Not Old Better Show, 'Movies for Adults' Interview Series After watching the new movie, The Post, from 20th Century Fox, starring Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks, I had a chance to interview Ms Streep, which we'll get to in just a few minutes. First though, I want to share my review of the film, which I thought was excellent. For members of the Not Old Better audience, we will remember the subject of the Pentagon Papers, the top secret Department of Defense study on the US's involvement with Vietnam, and of course central to the film, and the publication of the papers in The Washington Post, is Katherine Graham, publisher, played by Meryl Streep. In the film, Katharine Graham, played by Meryl Streep, is about to take her company public when the New York Times begins publishing excerpts from the Pentagon Papers, which divulge, among other things, that the government knew for years that the Vietnam War was unwinnable but kept sending troops overseas anyway. Go see this movie, and take your families…you may have to explain to some of the timing, and other issues, but it will be worth it. And, I want to thank 20th Century Fox and EPK for making this interview available to listeners of The Not Old Better Show. Talk About Better™ The Not Old Better Show on Radio & Podcast!

#146 Presidency of Ulysses S. Grant

The Presidency of Ulysses S. Grant Smithsonian Associates, Interview Series As controversial in politics as he was in the military, Ulysses S. Grant (1822–1885) was an embattled president, enormously popular with the American people, yet the target of unrelenting censure by political enemies. For the first time in almost a century, this book by the distinguished historian Charles W. Calhoun examines Grant's administration in depth, offering a fresh look at the 18th president's policies and actions during his two terms in office (1869–1877). Most biographers focus on Grant's military career, giving less attention to the significant and complex questions that marked his presidential terms. These concerns, the issues of politics and governance, are at the core of this book. As a political historian with a vast knowledge of nineteenth-century America and an extensive array of original sources at his command, Calhoun approaches Grant's presidency not as an incongruous or inconsequential sequel to his military career but instead as the polestar of American public life during a crucial decade in the nation's political development. He explores Grant's leadership style and traces his contributions to the office of president, including creating a White House staff, employing modern technology to promote the mobility of the presidency, and developing strong ties with congressional leaders to enhance executive influence over legislation. The Presidency of Ulysses S. Grant provides a detailed discussion of the administration's endeavors in a variety of areas—Reconstruction and civil rights, economic policy, the Peace Policy for Native Americans, foreign policy, and civil service reform. It also offers a straightforward examination of the scandals associated with the period, highlighting the "embattled" nature of Grant's presidency and the deep antagonism that marked his relations with key critics such as Charles Sumner, Henry Adams, and Benjamin Bristow. In sum, this book is a long overdue re-evaluation of a pivotal presidency in America's political history.

#139 David Lawrence XVII, Pro VO Tip #2

Today's tip on VO work is about getting work. Let's face it... it can be hard getting your VO practice off the ground. There are tons of voice over training products out there, but many are aimed at experienced A-level talent (and many of them are flat out scams)... and that presents a bit of a problem for new talent to the industry. That wasn't me, and I didn't want that. I needed to know the basics first, learn it deeply, apply it via my podcast and other projects, and learn it from someone I know and have confidence in. Which is why I'm so excited about this latest FREE training I just watched from David H. Lawrence XVII: Check it out! notold-better.com/VO Talk About Better™ The Not Old Better Show on Radio & Podcast! Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
