Here’s What’s Happening

Here’s What’s Happening is a daily news podcast and a daily newsletter, with one goal: not to break the news, but to break it down.

To put it into a little context. Maybe even, when possible, add some humor and levity. To help you get the news you need, so you can go about your day.

Let’s be honest - living in historical times is… draining. The news is exhausting and overwhelming. Sometimes it feels like it would be easier to just check out. I get it! But, unfortunately, we can’t. Don’t worry though! I’ve got a couple of solutions for you:

Daily Podcast

Here’s What’s Happening (the podcast) is a Monday-Friday, five(ish) minute show that sums up the news for you. I hit the headlines, give you some context, and send you off along your day (but not before first reminding you that I am, of course, proud of you).

Daily Substack

The Here’s What’s Happening Substack takes one big story from the news and expounds on it. Whether it’s putting a Supreme Court case into context or further explaining the ramifications of whatever new crimes a certain president is committing, the Substack is a quick morning read to help explain it all. It hits your inbox Monday-Friday.

(Extremely) Online
