Code Switch and Life Kit debuted as a broadcast program the weekend of August 13, 2021, bringing Member station audiences an hour of important ideas and practical advice.
Every week, listeners will hear stories about race and identity that expand their minds, and learn practical ways to make their lives better. It's lifelong learning that ranges from the big picture to tiny details and everything in between.
The hour starts with Code Switch, featuring journalists of color tackling the subject of race head-on. Code Switch explores how race impacts every part of society -- from politics and pop culture to history, sports and more.
In the second part of the show, Life Kit offers tips and guidance on a wide range of topics. From workplace microaggressions to saving money and more, Life Kit talks with the experts to get the best advice out there. The topics will often revolve around race and identity, but will always be designed to help listeners get through life together.
