Can America Survive Another Season of the Trump Show? Variety's Ramin Setoodeh Tells Us

Would Trump have become President of the United States without The Apprentice? It’s a question he has often considered. Ramin Setoodeh is the journalist that has spoken to Trump the most in recent years, and his new book, Apprentice in Wonderland: How Donald Trump and Mark Burnett Took America Through the Looking Glass is the untold story of the former president’s time as a reality TV star. 
Together they discuss everything from Trump’s “severe memory issues” and deepest insecurities to the possibility of a second term, and his real legacy.

You may think you know Anthony Scaramucci: a Harvard Law School graduate who cut his teeth at Goldman Sachs, went on to build two successful businesses and had an 11-day stint in the White House. What people don’t know is he’s an avid reader, endlessly curious, history buff with a restless mind.

In his new podcast, Open Book, listeners will hear and get to know the real Anthony: the proud son of immigrant parents, a long-suffering New York Mets fan and a father of five. Each week, he’ll invite you into an intimate and open conversation with some of the brightest minds out there, from business, politics, entertainment, and more. Together, they’ll go deep into a piece of work - whether it's a highly anticipated book, an in-depth feature story, or an opinion piece – to dig into why it matters to you, what we can learn from the past, and how their work is shaping our future.

Along the way, you’ll learn more about The Mooch – beyond the headlines – where he came from and how he got here. He’ll turn the pages on his own life lessons from his blue-collar upbringing and career on Wall Street to getting his teeth kicked in the White House and then, coming back stronger. He’ll offer his perspective as a self-made entrepreneur and “open book” with a lot of experience, both good and bad.

Tune in every week to hear fascinating conversations you won’t get anywhere else.
