great show

Description

Hosted by the OG Squiz team, Kate Watson and Claire Kimball, News Club is the place to go for conversations about the news. Our News Club podcast is out each Tuesday. It's dedicated to one news topic, sort of like a book club for news. We do the heavy lifting with our Club Picks on what to read/watch/listen to and get your thoughts on the topic. And on Saturday, The Weekly Wrap drops. It is like the weekend newspaper in audio form. We take you through the big news stories from the week that was, what's coming up, and the stuff we're recommending.
