ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
This is where journalist John Dickerson experiments. Sometimes it contains stories, sometimes Stack the Week, a weekly review of the news — what mattered, what's coming, and why it all connects. With occasional acts of wonder. Or, it's where Stack the Week Daily lives. A daily version of the same.
