Summary

This Black Friday we're bringing you a greatest hits of NPR podcasts. Many other shows have been looking at specific policy options on the table for Joe Biden. Planet Money has looked at economic policy, and Short Wave has been looking at climate policy. So we invited them onto our show to share their reporting and take a look at what Biden might do starting on day one.

And as a bonus, we sat down with Pop Culture Happy Hour to talk about the tv shows we're missing when we're spending all our time watching the news.

This episode: congressional correspondent Susan Davis, political correspondent Asma Khalid, White House reporter Ayesha Rascoe, Planet Money's Jacob Goldstein, climate reporter Rebecca Hersher, and Pop Culture Happy Hour's Aisha Harris.
