  • When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it.

  • This is 60 minutes.

  • It's a kind of a magazine for television.

  • Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives.

  • You rolling?

  • But that's all about to change.

  • Like, none of this stuff gets looked at.

  • That's what's incredible.

  • I'm Seth Doane of CB's news.

  • Listen to 60 minutes a second.

  • Look wherever.

  • Get your podcasts.

  • This is the moth radio hour from PRX, I'm Katherine Burns.

  • And this time, we're hearing stories about tough truths, admitting hard things, and then finding the courage to say them out loud, especially when it feels a little dangerous.

  • That was the case with our first storyteller, David Litt.

  • He shared his story at the College street music hall in New Haven, Connecticut, where he partnered with premier concerts.

  • Here's David Litt live at the Moth.

  • Back when I was a speech writer for President Obama.

  • Thank you.

  • That's my story.
