NPR has recently launched a new podcast called Trump’s Trials. Scott Detrow hosts the show, is the weekend host of All Things Considered, and former NPR Politics Podcast host. It focuses on the criminal investigations faced by former President Donald Trump. The podcast aims to provide clear and comprehensive coverage of Trump’s legal issues.
The weekly episodes will feature insights from NPR’s political editor, Domenico Montanaro, and legal experts. They will break down complex legal matters into understandable terms. Produced by the All Things Considered team, the show will feature segments on the Saturday evening newsmagazine.
The first Trump’s Trials episode is available on all podcasting platforms. NPR Plus subscribers will benefit from accessing the show without sponsor interruptions. Executive Producer Beth Donovan expressed that the team is working hard to sort through all the details so listeners can get a quick catch-up or a deep dive with sharp takes on what’s at stake for American democracy.
Host Scott Detrow is looking forward to helping listeners make sense of each week’s developments and understand what matters and what doesn’t in the long run. All Things Considered, Executive Producer Sami Yenigun added that Trump’s Trials will give listeners an essential look at how government, politicians, and the legal system interface with each other clearly and engagingly. It’s central to NPR’s mission of keeping the public informed so that they can make good decisions about civic life and hold our leaders accountable.
