In this episode of Splitting the Atom, Jen Brien sits down with Jon Mellis for a rare, in-depth conversation about the path that led him to January 6—and what most people never hear about that day. Rather than headlines or labels, this discussion focuses on the human story: the beliefs, emotions, and decisions that shaped one of the most talked-about moments in modern American history.
Jon shares his personal background, what he witnessed from the inside, and how quickly events took on a life of their own. He reflects on the aftermath, the impact on his life and family, and what it means to move forward after becoming part of a national narrative bigger than any one person.
This episode isn’t about arguing sides—it’s about understanding how ordinary people find themselves at the center of extraordinary events. There’s more to this story than meets the eye, and Splitting the Atom takes the time to explore it. Thank you to Michelle Farrell management for arranging this!
