We are in uncharted territory.

Staff writer Evan Osnos on The New Yorker Radio Hour.

I think all of us right now are trying to make sense of an avalanche of news every day.

And there aren't very many places where you can go and understand how something looks in the grand scope of history and context.

That's what I come to The New Yorker for.

It's okay.

Mm-hmm.

Right now, news and politics are moving awfully fast.

It can feel overwhelming, to say the least.

I'm Evan Osnos, a staff writer for The New Yorker.

On the Political Scene podcast, we slow things down to understand how power really operates in Washington, D.C., and what it means for you.

My co-hosts, Jane Mayer and Susan Glasser, and I have decades of reporting experience.

And every Friday, we have conversations with insiders and experts to understand the forces remaking America.

Join us Fridays for the Washington Roundtable from the political scene.

On Mondays and Wednesdays, you can also hear insightful episodes from our New Yorker colleagues, David Remnick and Tyler Foggett.
