Things you might have missed

The World

Hosts Carolyn Beeler and Marco Werman give us a lightning round of news updates that might have flown under listeners’ radar: blobs on the beach in Canada, a food festival in Mexico and a soccer boycott in Nigeria.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
