It is a felony under United States federal law for any news magazine over two years old not to have an accompanying podcast. Thus, once Current Affairs hit its two-year anniversary in 2018, we were obliged to introduce The Current Affairs Podcast, your ear’s greatest hour of politics and culture.

Our editorial team brings you a mixture of discussion, analysis, and assorted auditory delights. From the Current Affairs headquarters, our podcast is a refreshing alternative to the stale and tedious audio products to which you have grudgingly become accustomed. We’re cutting through the nonsense, bursting open ideological piñatas, and presenting a friendly, relaxed, and upbeat guide to everything that matters in the world (and some things that don’t, but are still fun to hear about).

Previous guests include Nina Turner, Michael Moore, Ben Cohen, Cory Doctorow, Adam McKay, Amy Goodman, Jasper Nathaniel, Abby Martin, Medea Benjamin, Ralph Nader, Nika Soon-Shiong, and Alanah Odoms.
