Frank Bailey: Author of Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin

This week on TALK! with AUDREY: Joining Audrey Adams on the show this week is trusted “Insider” FRANK BAILEY, the author of BLIND ALLEGIANCE TO SARAH PALIN. He was close to Palin during her gubernatorial campaign, throughout her term as governor of Alaska, and during her vice presidential run with John McCain. Bailey shared Palin’s stated political and religious views, believing she would be the best thing that ever happened to the State of Alaska and potentially the White House. In his role, he had unfettered access to Palin and shares surprising information about how she dealt with staff, with perceived “enemies,” and the discrepancy between what she said and what she did.

BLIND ALLEGIANCE is a up-close view of Sarah Palin from an inner-circle confidant. Unmasking the truth about one of the most notorious political figures of our time, it is the story of one man’s slow drift from his most cherished beliefs to his ultimate redemption.

Dave Isay, Founder of StoryCorps and Author of MOM: A Celebration of Mothers From StoryCorps.

This week on TALK! with AUDREY: Dave Isay—StoryCorps’ founder, joins me to talk about his new book, MOM: A CELEBRATION OF MOTHERS FROM STORYCORPS. It is a celebration of American mothers featuring StoryCorps’ most revelatory stories on the subject, Mom looks across a diversity of experience to present an entirely original portrait of motherhood.

Mom includes an array of voices: Young and old, black and white, native speakers and immigrants, everyday people whose memories showcase the diversity of experience that make up motherhood. Through conversations between parents and children, husbands and wives, siblings and friends, the life of the American mother unfolds. In stories that take us from the woods of New Hampshire to downtown Detroit and beyond, we meet mothers and children from all walks of life: An immigrant mother instilling in her children the importance of education; adult children caring for an elderly parent; a woman remembering the sound of her mother’s laugh; and mothers and children of all ages learning to grow into new roles over time. Visiting families in moments of profound joy and sadness, courage and despair, struggle and triumph, we learn new truths about that most primal and sacred of bonds—the relationship between mother and child.
