NPR's flagship evening newsmagazine delivers in-depth reporting and transforms the way listeners understand current events and view the world.
Every weekday, hosts Robert Siegel, Audie Cornish, Ari Shapiro and Kelly McEvers present two hours of breaking news mixed with compelling analysis, insightful commentaries, interviews, and special -- sometimes quirky -- features.
A one-hour edition of the program runs on Saturday and Sunday, hosted by Michel Martin. The show keeps listeners informed of breaking news and business updates all weekend long, by intelligently combining hard news and cultural commentary from across America and around the world.
