The Sham of SHAM
From Doctors Phil and Laura, to 12-Step Programs and inspirational speakers heard at countless corporate trainings, self-help experts shape the way millions of Americans try to improve their lives. And yet, as investigative journalist Steve Salerno writes in his new book, "SHAM: How the Self-Help Movement Made America Helpless," very few of these so-called gurus have the credentials or expertise to back up their claims.
Host Mike Cuthbert engages Salerno in a spirited conversation about America's yearning to be "helped" by the billion dollar enterprises of the Self-Help and Actualization Movement (SHAM).
