CNN’s Chloe Melas on Generational Storytelling, WWII, and her Grandfather’s Legacy - a podcast by Off The Gram

We’ve had CNN’s beautiful and talented Entertainment Reporter, Chloe Melas, on the show before… but when we found out that she had an incredible new - super unexpected! - project launching, we had to invite her back! 

Chloe was inspired to republish her late grandfather's memoir, “Luck of the Draw: My Story of the Air War in Europe”, in order to honor his legacy and ensure that his story of heroism and courage is never forgotten. 

And even if WWII doesn’t immediately pique your interest, you may be surprised…  never underestimate the lessons we can learn today from the hardships of our ancestors. If you struggle with finding gratitude, courage, or acceptance… this one may be for you.

Not to mention… the upcoming Apple TV+ series "Masters of the Air” - produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, and starring Austin Butler - features her grandfather's story! So, grab your headphones and get ready for a fascinating journey through history and inspiration with Chloe!
