 Memoir Nation: Weekly Inspiration for Writers is an extension of the Memoir Nation community hosted by Brooke Warner and Grant Faulkner, two friends and colleagues who bring a community-minded sensibility to the writing journey. Originally launched as Write-minded in 2018, this is a weekly writing podcast that focuses on memoir and personal writing, as well as industry trends and tips and resources for writers and authors. Memoir Nation features a segment called Book Alley at the end of each episode to talk about recent memoirs that authors have sent Brooke and Grant, or memoirs they've discovered that are thought provoking or have sparked inspiration. Brooke and Grant bring to this weekly podcast their deeply held belief that everyone is a writer, and everyone’s story matters.

  • John B. King on The Career Memoir

    John B. King on The Career Memoir
    2025/07/28
    This week, our final episode of our seventh season, features John B. King Jr., who served in President Barack Obama's cabinet as the tenth U.S. Secretary of Education. This is a book about mentors who helped King along the way and how he rose in the ranks of public education to eventually be appointed as Secretary. Brooke and Grant discuss what it means to do what you love, and talk about the difference between working to live and living to work. This episode is particularly poignant in light of the current assault against the Department of Education. Book Alley this week features Garrett Glaser's Fairyboy, which explores the hidden world of gay New York before the Stonewall Riots and you can watch a TV spot here. John B. King Jr. served in President Barack Obama's cabinet as the tenth U.S. Secretary of Education. He has been a high school social studies teacher, a middle school principal, the first African American and Puerto Rican to serve as New York State Education Commissioner, a college professor, and the president and CEO of the Education Trust, a national education civil rights organization. King is currently the chancellor of the State University of New York (SUNY), the nation's largest comprehensive system of public higher education. Both of King's parents were career New York City public school educators. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    W. Kamau Bell on Creating Conversations in a Complicated, Comedic World
    2025/07/21
    Join us for a conversation about all the ways our creativity is fueled by our stories—the stories of who we are and what we have to tell. Guest W. Kamau Bell tells stories through so many mediums, and this episode explores his approach to creativity, conversation, and advocacy. We have a couple links we mention in the show that we’re dropping here: 1) a link to Kamau’s Substack, specifically a post from earlier this year about Gavin Newsom; and 2) a link to She Writes Press’s STEP contest that we hope you’ll share widely. W. Kamau Bell is a stand-up comedian, Emmy-winning TV host, filmmaker, author, and podcast creator known for tackling race and social justice with humor and heart. He’s the director of We Need to Talk About Cosby, creator and host of CNN’s United Shades of America, and co-author of Do the Work. Kamau is also the author of the memoir, The Awkward Thoughts of W. Kamau Bell. He blends activism and storytelling across platforms, making space for honest conversations that challenge, connect, and inspire. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Jeff Hiller on The Celebrity Memoir

    Jeff Hiller on The Celebrity Memoir
    2025/07/14
    This week Memoir Nation ventures into waters rarely touched except when speaking “about” the topic. Yep, it’s celebrity memoir. Jeff Hiller, author of the new memoir, Actress of a Certain Age, is a celebrity, but only so newly so that we feel he’s an appropriate ambassador of the genre—someone who straddles that otherworldly space and the real world. Grant and Brooke laughed a lot on this show, and we’re happy to report that we have a new bestie in Jeff Hiller. Listen this week so you’ll know how it all got started. And, if you need a laugh—and who doesn’t?—this is just a fun and funny interview on celebrity memoir and so much more. Jeff Hiller is a Peabody‑winning actor (“Somebody Somewhere”), solo storytelling favorite (“Grief Bacon, Middle Aged Ingenue”), and memoirist whose essays reveal the surprising twists behind his “overnight success”—a path shaped by small‑town Texas, UCB improv, social work, and a late‑blooming acting career. He’s also an improv teacher, a proud pet parent, and married to artist Neil Goldberg. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
