"I didn’t like the sound of people gasping at the mere mention of my name. It horrified me." - Joni Mitchell in 1986, as told to Joe Smith This interview is from the Joe Smith Collection at the Library of Congress and has never been heard before. Hear the full, unedited interview with Joni @ http://blankonblank.org/joni Roberta Joan Anderson sat down for a personal, reflective interview in November 1986. The interviewer, Joe Smith, was a longtime record executive who interviewed hundreds of music legends as part of his book, Off The Record. In this extended conversation with Joni we hear an artist come to grips with both her rise to fame and the price that she felt she paid for experimenting in her career and not seeking hits and fame alone. More Joni "I was young for my age. Not as naïve as they expected. I don’t know why I seem to bring that out in people." "If you see yourself as a kingly type, then you need your serfs and your army and someone around you." "I thought, ‘All things considered, I’d rather be dancing.’" "I didn’t like the sound of people gasping at the mere mention of my name. It horrified me."

"Everything in my mind works like a search engine set for the image function." - Temple Grandin in 2008, from an oral history at Colorado State University Hear more interview outtakes and learn more about Temple Grandin @ http://blankonblank.org/temple-grandin You’ve probably heard the story that Einstein - whose name is synonymous with genius - didn’t seem destined for much when he was a small child. He was years behind other children when it came to learning to talk, he did horribly in school. It seems that Einstein’s brain just worked differently than most other people’s. And many people these days are saying that Einstein was probably autistic - one of them is Temple Grandin. Temple Grandin is a professor of animal sciences who’s worked in the meat industry to invent kinder ways to lead cattle to slaughter. She’s also autistic - the high-functioning version known as Asperger’s Syndrome. Autism, in case you don’t know, is a brain disorder that tends to affect people’s social skills, like the ability to read facial expressions and body language, but it can also mean extraordinary talent in math, music and the visual arts. Temple Grandin has become something of a celebrity of autism. She’s written books, given TED talks, and she’s been around the world to speak on the subject. Claire Danes has even played her in a movie about her life. As part of our special series, The Experimenters--where we uncover interviews with the icons of science, technology, and innovation…-- we found this interview in the holdings of Colorado State University, where Temple teaches. In this conversation, Temple’s at her best, explaining for the rest of us what it’s really like to have an autistic brain and how Einstein’s not the only genius who could have been dismissed for being different.

"I'm sorry, I‘m a coward. I didn’t want to die." - Patty Hearst in 1982 in the first interview she gave after getting out of prison As told to Lawrence Grobel (http://lawrencegrobel.com) Hear more from this rare interview: http://blankonblank.org/patty-hearst Grobel explained how he became the lucky journalist to get the Patty Hearst interview for Playboy after she had served two years in prison before President Jimmy Carter commuted her sentence: “Patty Hearst is coming with her husband for breakfast to the mansion,” Christie Hefner told me over the phone. “Why don’t you join us?” “You mean to see if she’d agree to do the Interview?” I asked. I had done several Playboyinterviews by then, including marathon sessions with two highly elusive stars, Barbra Streisand and Marlon Brando “You never know,” Christie said. *** From hours of exclusive interview tapes, we honed in on the idea of "reasonable doubt" and Hearst's unsuccessful claim that she was brainwashed by her captors, the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA), and forced to join their wild ride of bank robbery and crime. Hearst says the SLA told her she would be killed if she didn't pledge allegiance to their radical cause. What would you have done in her shoes? Get more on the Patty Hearst case and back story to the interview with one of the most infamous women of the 20th century. http://blankonblank.org/patty-hearst Subscribe for new episodes every other Tuesday (it's free): http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c...
