There's so much news happening around the world that we're somehow supposed to stay on top of.

That's why we launched The Big Take.

I'm Wes Kosova.

Each weekday I dig into one important story and talk about why it matters.

Listen to The Big Take on The I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen.

Attention Seattle in the greater Pacific Northwest area.

All new material we're super excited. You always turn out for us.

The tickets go on sale tomorrow for the January 16th show. You can find out ticket info at

Welcome to Stuff You Should Know, a production of I Heart Radio's House Stuff Works.

Can you make an attempt?

My brain is so broken right now. I can't even try.
