gwynne. >> good morning and thank you. i am interested in three things, one, your s.c. gwynne process -- your writing process and what do think about agents? s.c. gwynne: writing process and agents? >> i wrote them down in case you need them later. s.c. gwynne: my writing process, people say do i write every day? i do not i am in the world of nonfiction so i cannot do we fiction up and write until noon every day or something. what i do requires either extensive reporting in current times or extensive research. most of what i do really is research. the majority of the time that i spent is not writing which is weird. sometimes it strikes me that i have been researching a book for two years and have not written a word. that is the way it is. once i've done the research, i tend to write, i tend to do a lot of background research and then i will research individual chapters just before i write them. i do not understand writers who do not do this by there is a lot of them who do not, the outline, t

gwynne. >> caller: good morning and thank you mr. gwynne. i very much have enjoyed your discussion. my question goes back to the hindenburg before its 1937 crash lakehurst. could you tell us about the last u.s. flight, i believe it was 1935 or 1936, where it was a full-scale effort on the part of the germans to obtain helium from the united states. i believe the flight was dubbed the millionaires flight from lakehurst to boston and back, and it had people on the flight manifest like any rickenbacker and a young nelson rockefeller. >> guest: yes, i think i mentioned this in the book but this was, this is part of the enormous german pr push to get the helium. theum millionaires flight was vy famous. when youy think about what happened to the hindenburg not that long after that, what it would've been if all those people had gone down. it was just, the germans mounted an enormous push to try and sell this idea that hey, the hindenburg is demonstrating that, the hindenburg is going to demonstrate the feasibility of air travel, just as our 101 was going to demonstrate the feasibility of a

but instead of pairing gwynne a. wilcox, president biden's choice for a democrat seat on the national labor relations board, with a republican counterpart, our colleagues would like to create an artificial liberal super majority. mr. president, washington democrats' runaway inflation continues to send headwinds through the american economy. credit card debt is an all-time high. in historic numbers, workers concluded that democrats' big-labor allies are not in their corner. fewer and fewer employees want to hand their hard-earned money over to union bosses. last year, just 6%, 6% of the private sector workforce belonged to a union. just this year, one major union had to fire its president for misusing workers' dues, and officials from at least two other organizations are facing lengthy prison terms for embezzlement. all the while, committed partisans like ms. wilcox and liberals at the nrlb made it their mission to run roughshod over american floirs, stack the -- employers, stack the deck for democrats' big-labor alli

gwynne has been our guest for the past two hours on and now on booktv, we want to introduce you to jennifer. say her book is called levi's on button the woke mob took my job but gave me my voice. jennifer, what was your career path at levi's? slow and steady, but almost the way to the top. i started in 1999 as a marketing assistant entry level, the lowest of the low, but worked my way up to chief marketing officer by 2013. held that post for eight years, which is a really long time to be a cmo. most people average tenure is about 1820 months. they get fired. but i did a good job. help the company go public became the brand president. but then i was very outspoken about the need to open public schools during covid after a two year conflict internally, i was told there was no place for me at the company anymore. so a cmo, what's the job of a chief marketing officer? oh, let's see. how can i put it into words? i mean, you're responsible for the brand's image. you're responsible for generating demand, revenue, profitable revenue. ideally. but really, you know, all of the communication that goes

you've got a southern board they're he has totally gwynn up on, and you've got an 80-year-old that isn'tery well, to put it mildly. all of that put together feels like if america had a chance to hit the reset button, democrats and republicans, they would do it in a heartbeat. but for whatever reason, we're both stuck in stall speed. and we have our 50 or sixth or 50th or 60th best candidates running in this election in maybe the most crucial time in our country's history. >> amanda, you said upholding democracy can't be a partisan issue. isn't the reality it is a partisan issue? if the former president has a huge support among voters and on capitol hill, that says something, no? >> it's -- i think it will be a choice in the coming presidential election. but i also remember there were many republicans after january 6th, after 2020 that came forward and provided their testimony about the damage that these things can do. we need republicans to be a part of that equation. so i can agree with jeff that there are serious policy issues that we should debate. but when you have -- say we're going

events aimed at reaching new talent from diverse communities because gone are the days of griffey, gwynnh baseball does boast incredible international diversity. for sam richardson it was baseball from the beginning. >> my dad put the bat in my hand and i fell in love with it. >> reporter: for others the sport is more accessible and less costly. the players don't have to foot the bill to attend these camps, part of efforts to expand the game. what would success look like to you? >> consistency. we're not there yet but we're getting there. i can see it, i can taste it. >> reporter: the efforts are starting to bear fruit. four of the top picks in the draft were african american players. all of them participated in mlb-hosted camps. for baseball's future stars, it's a start. and also an early stage with richardson, sir jameson jones all selected to play in the show-case game in atlanta. >> knowing that he played in that city and represented that city was big. that's our history of the game. when i saw that posted after, i called my mom and dad, i made it. i made it. >> to wear hank aaron ac

and i got to watch her -- congratulations, when gwynn -- there are thousands and thousands of peoplehere who make those victories. >> right, this was a remarkable thing that happened after 2016. that this raft of infrastructure that the democratic party had really lacked had sort of summit itself into being, without very much help from the party at. all i do think there is a problem that they have not gotten all the support that they need. >> yes. >> they are definitely still out there doing the work. also, as the demographics of the democratic party change a little bit, and there is bad things about having an increasingly college educated and highly conscientious party, but one of the upside's is that those are ultimately people who show up for a few elections. >> yes, there's an interesting thing happening in terms of where the party's two bases are. the one thing i think about of this as well, robert it, and the one asterisk i would give to this whole thing is that, for whatever reason trump is different from all this, and, it's like, he lost the popular vote twice, so it's not li

yesterday i'm proud to say we confirmed gwynne wilcox to a second term on the nlrb, the national labor relations board. i'm happy she passed just as she did two years ago when she became the first black woman ever to be confirmed to the nlrb. confirming highly qualified nominees like ms. wilcox to the nlrb is a top priority for democrats and for all working americans, because it's one of the most important pro worker agencies in the country. under the biden administration, the nlrb has been hard at work overturning trump-era rulings that harmed workers and unions. they've been at work expanding protections in the workplace and safeguarding the right to organize, all important to maintaining the middle class and growing the middle class. because after all, it was the union movement that really created the broad american middle class in the first place. and when unions were attacked, the middle class declined. during her first term on the nlrb, ms. wilcox was a fervent champion of the labor movement. so i'm pleased that she'll be back on the board again. now later this morning, we'll con

kind of contempt, even though a lot of judges think it should be sort of higher sentencing guidelines gwynnce of the crime to the process that congress was engaged in. >> betsy, this case seems to epitomize the point you're making earlier about the indiscernible nature of trump's legal strategy and political strategy. that seems like it was exhibit 1. this seems like exhibit 2. >> yeah, no question. and what's really singular about navarro's case, which without a doubt is extraordinarily helpful to the prosecutors handling it is navarro didn't just say trump invoked executive privilege and that that prohibited him from talking about privileged material. he went way further than the vast majority of trump administration alums who also raised the issue of executive privilege. he didn't talk to the committee. he didn't give them a privilege log. he didn't say "i searched for documents that might be responsive to the subpoena. i found a bunch of them. i'm not giving them to you, but i'm going to tell you what the documents are." that would have been the standard move. that would have been what
