National Public Radio (NPR) is an American public broadcasting organisation based in the country’s capital. Funded by subscriptions, low-key sponsorship and government grants, it operates in a less-commercial manner than most American news organisations.
NPR is celebrated for its down-to-earth, comprehensive coverage of issues. The podcasts continue in this vein, calling on a variety of sources in each episode.
Issues range from the US electoral system and the progress of the war in Iran.
Fans of the podcast, and there should be many, need to make time every day, as the NPR Politics Podcast produces its episodes daily. Episodes range from 20 to 30 minutes each.
With the people of Australia affected so strongly by American politics, this is a valuable podcast to listen to.
