KOSU recently hosted Mary Louise Kelly in Oklahoma City. She co-anchors NPR’s afternoon news show, All Things Considered, and has written several books. Mary Louise is also well-known for her work creating NPR’s national security beat, which launched in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
This conversation was held at Oklahoma City Community College on November 4, 2025, in front of an audience full of KOSU members. We also wanted to share Mary Louise’s insights with those who couldn’t make it to the event. A special thanks to our partners at ArtDesk and Home Creations for making this event possible.
Please enjoy this conversation between NPR host Mary Louise Kelly and KOSU Executive Director Rachel Hubbard.
