BRADLEY NATHANSON is the author of AMERICAN DEPARTURES: THE CURIOUS PLIGHT OF A UNIQUELY PRIVILEGED QUIETLY DESPERATE BABY BOOMER. He recalls his days as a young man, when reality seemed far stranger than what he imagined, and what he did imagine never quite matched reality.

Brad talks to retired TV news producer Frank Silverstein about crawling into an igloo in the Arctic Circle, performing an amazing feat of strength while under hypnotic suggestion, and nightlife in Hollywood back in the 1980s.
