The Atlantic has long been known as an ideas-driven magazine. Now we're bringing that same ethos to audio. Like the magazine, the show will 'road test' the big ideas that both drive the news and shape our culture. Through conversations—and sometimes sharp debates—with the most insightful thinkers and writers on topics of the day, Radio Atlantic will complicate overly simplistic views. It will cut through the noise with clarifying, personal narratives. It will, hopefully, help listeners make up their own mind about certain ideas...MORE Host Hanna Rosin

Some call it Hurricane Katrina. Some call it the Federal Flood. Others call it the day the levees broke. On August 29, 2005, the city of New Orleans was submerged. That story of hubris, incompetence, and nature's wrath is now etched into the national consciousness. But the people who lived through the flood and its aftermath have a different story to tell. A story of rumors, betrayal, and one of the most misunderstood events in American history. Hosted by Vann R. Newkirk II.MORE Host Vann R. Newkirk II

Play
Website Apple Spotify YouTube
The story of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination on April 4, 1968, is often recounted as a conclusion to a powerful era of civil rights in America, but how did this hero's murder come to be the stitching used to tie together a narrative of victory? The week that followed his killing was one of the most fiery, disruptive, and revolutionary, and is nearly forgotten. Over the course of eight episodes, Holy Week brings forward the stories of the activists who turned heartbreak into action, families scorched by chaos, and politicians who worked to contain the grief...MORE Host Vann R.
