Bob Garfield

Bob Garfield is a veteran of both NPR’s “All Things Considered” and ABC-News, and cofounder and for twenty years the cohost of WNYC’s award-winning “On the Media” weekly radio broadcast. He has authored a half dozen books, ranging from his first Waking up Screaming from the American Dream (1997) through his most recent American Manifesto: Saving Democracy from Villains, Vandals and Ourselves (2020). Soon after leaving WNYC earlier this year, he launched a Booksmart substack subscription site, “The Bully Pulpit,” across which this conversation will broadcast as a coproduction.
