Wall Street Journal's The Journal Podcast by Kate Linebaugh

The Journal is a daily news podcast offered Monday through Friday by the Wall Street Journal. Structured similarly to the popular New York Times' The Daily Podcast, this podcast features a host interviewing a Wall Street Journal colleague about one of the major news stories of the day. The hosts are either Kate Linebaugh or Ryan Knuston, who both do a good job of digging into the story with their interview questions. Each 15-20 minute episode covers a particular news story well with added audio clips from broadcast news along with a little music and sound effects for additional listening flair. Like the New York Times' The Daily Podcast, each episode of The Journal is named specifically for what it will be covering that episode which helps you decide which ones you're most interested in. Because it's the Wall Street Journal, the episodes tend to focus on business and economic-related stories more than other daily news podcasts. While some of the episodes are related to business, many of them also cover social and political issues. If you enjoy the New York Times' The Daily Podcast, then Wall Street Journal's The Journal Podcast is also a very good daily news podcast to subscribe to.
