All Things Considered
Weekdays from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. and 6:30 to 7 p.m. / Weekends at 4 p.m.
In the more than five decades since All Things Considered debuted, almost everything about the program has changed, from the hosts, producers, editors and reporters to the length of the program, the equipment used and even the audience.
However there is one thing that remains the same: each show consists of the biggest stories of the day, thoughtful commentaries, insightful features on the quirky and the mainstream in arts and life, music and entertainment, all brought alive through sound.
All Things Considered is the most listened-to, afternoon drive-time, news radio program in the country.
Scott Detrow hosts the weekend edition of All Things Considered.
