Shannon spoke with revered environmental activist Erin Brockovich about our nation's water crisis. We assume our water supply is safe because it is tested and treated by municipalities, but that isn't always the case. Discovering impurities in a municipal water supply, and ultimately ensuring the situation is rectified, requires persistence, research, and commitment from community members. With the goal of educating and empowering communities in the fight for clean water, Erin Brockovich has written Superman's Not Coming: Our National Water Crisis and What We the People Can Do About It, which is essentially a step-by-step handbook for local citizens to stand up for themselves and their health. The book is packed with helpful information about water quality and community activism in accessible, easy-to-understand terms.

Shannon Fisher welcomes acclaimed author Clancy Martin to discuss his new book, HOW NOT TO KILL YOURSELF: A PORTRAIT OF THE SUICIDAL MIND. This memoir powerfully depicts a mindset that is incomprehensible to many: the earnest contemplation of suicide. Offering an intimate glimpse of Clancy's personal reality for those trying to understand this concept, and comfort and commiseration for readers who are all too familiar with it, HOW NOT TO KILL YOURSELF helps readers come to grips with suicidal ideation. The book contains plentiful resources for people struggling with thoughts of suicide and those who have lost a loved one (or fear losing a loved one) to suicide. The best way to address this topic is to confront it head-on, which is what Shannon and Clancy do in this conversation.
