NPR just announced that my @npratc co-host @nprAudie will be leaving for other adventures at the end of this week. We’ve been friends for 20 years, since long before we were cohosts or even NPR reporters. That won’t change. But this one stings. She opened doors for me in so many ways and taught me so many things - not least how to be a host. It has been difficult this year to say goodbye to @nprgreene @lourdesgnavarro @NoelKing @RadioMirage and more. If NPR doesn’t see this as a crisis, I don’t know what it’ll take.

Good morning, Shapiro School students! We've just posted the current events discussion for week 8, about where our food comes from. Check back later for the video introducing the topic for week 9!
Tomorrow we'll post the "Introduction To Moral Philosophy" conversation with @krupaddesai. (Or as I like to think of it, "The Good Place" lesson.) If you haven't already, watch this intro video and join in the conversation with the hashtag #ShapiroSchool!

The coda to @NPRKelly's interview with @SecPompeo is shocking. As described on @npratc: He screamed, swore at her, and said she couldn't find Ukraine on a map. He ordered staffers to bring a blank map. She pointed to Ukraine and thanked him for his time.
npr.org/2020/01/24/798… For the record, this colleague of mine is the same @NPRKelly who started the week anchoring 14 hours of live impeachment coverage as a solo host. I’m full of awe and gratitude.

Photographer @ryanjamescliff traveled 350 miles w me and producers @Matt_Ozug & @christinacala, on the path of "Los Caminantes," Venezuelans leaving their country on foot. To accompany our #LeavingVenezuela reporting, here's a thread w some of his images.
npr.org/2019/04/04/709… Marta Alarcon's roadside stand has become a makeshift refuge for Venezuelans on the road. People write notes on bolivars, Venezuelan currency made worthless by hyperinflation. She hangs them from the ceiling of her shop like flags. #LeavingVenezuela
