Download I Should Be Dead: My Life Surviving Politics, TV, and Addiction AudioBook Free
From popular Television personality Bob Beckel, a deeply moving, redemptive memoir about his life as a political operative and diplomat, his long struggle with alcohol and drugs, and his improbable journey to finding trust. Growing up poor in an abusive home, Bob Beckel discovered to be a survivor: to avoid conflict, mask his emotions, and rest - all skills that offered him well in Washington, where he would become the youngest-ever deputy helper secretary of Point out and manage Walter Mondale's 1984 presidential campaign. But Beckel was living a dual life. On January 20, 2001 - George W. Bush's first Inauguration Day - he struck rock bottom, waking up in the psych ward. Written with fascinating integrity, Beckel chronicles how his addictions nearly killed him until he found help in an urgent ally, conservative Cal Thomas, who helped him find trust, get sober, and get his life back again on track.
