Club Book Episode 113 John Moe

John Moe is one of Minnesota’s best-known radio and podcast personalities. The reporter and talk show host first cut his teeth in the Seattle radio market, before bringing his unique wit to the North Star State. He is best known for his work as a senior reporter and host of American Public Media enterprises including Weekend America, Marketplace Tech Report, and the uproarious radio variety show Wits. His podcasting projects include The Hilarious World of Depression, a show in which Moe set out to dispel societal stigma around and entrenched stereotypes about clinical depression. Celebrity guests have included chef Andrew Zimmern, authors John Green and Jenny Lawson, and actors Wil Wheaton and Jameela Jamil. In 2020, Moe published a book under the same title. In The Hilarious World of Depression, Moe shares all he knows about the illness – from personal experience, extensive research, and years of interviews. In a glowing review, Booklist asserts that “Moe is exactly the right person to give an attentive, irreverent voice to those suffering with depression.”
