Hi, it's Layla Fulton.

And I'm A M. Martinez.

Now, before we get to the show, I mean, it has been a wild, exhausting election season.

And if you need a quick primer on what's going on every day, we get into the top three stories of the day, every day.

That's right.

That's NPR's morning news podcast up first.

It's recorded before dawn and out by 7 a.m. Eastern time each weekday.

Now, it's the morning podcast that really captures the news overnight, up first 7 a.m.

And today we have a bonus episode at 3 p.m. featuring all four up first hosts. That's you and me,

Leila, in addition to Stephen Michelle. I know, and we never get to all be together. But in the

closing days of the election, we all did sit down to talk about our biggest

takeaways from the voters we spoke with in the swing states of Pennsylvania, Michigan,

and Nevada.

And those states could decide the election.

And then later in the day, you can find a new episode of the NPR Politics Podcast

with content and analysis on the big stories whenever they happen.

So picture this. So you get an alert, big breaking news, don't know what to think.

Well, just look for the NPR Politics Podcast a few hours later.

And finally, we have Consider This, which is a podcast where NPR covers one big story, takes a deep dive every weekday evening.

They will be all over this election and its aftermath, too.

So here's how it goes.

Up first in the morning, consider this in the evening and the NPR Politics Podcast.
