Hi there. Today is Wednesday, April 9th. Would you like to hear a news update? If so, keep listening. If not, I'll offer again next week.
And with that, let's hear some news.
TOPICS:
Resistance in the US
US Executive News: ICE, IRS, Education
Transnational News: Tariffs
International news: South Korea, Impeachment
Nature News: Antibiotics
I am hearing from lots of people who are looking for a way to sustainably stay connected with the news without being overwhelmed. I bet you know some too. Would you leave a review for the offering here on your app? It’ll help other people find it and listen. I'll have a video explaining Grover Reads the News, available on Substack and Instagram socials, later this week if that's an easy way for you to signal boost.
