Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart lets it rip in his new memoir Yet Here I Am: Lessons From A Black Man's Search For Home.
Capehart, a long-time fan of WBGO, writes about his stellar media career, his days at St. Benedict's Prep in Newark and going to Carleton College in Minnesota.
Capehart spoke to his friend and WBGO's Drive Time host Brian Delp about why he wrote the book and its significance. While in Rome six years ago, he began writing the memoir while listening to Brian on the radio.
"I would go on these long walks in the morning and I would have Jazz Overnight on. The music really hit me while I was those walks. I would note the songs and created a playlist Rome 2019, which I still play. For me, this station is home no matter when I turn it on."
