Hey y'all, Sam Sanders here.

Want to tell you about the only NPR show where you can hear about the latest White House

drama and the return of TRL to MTV.

Show was called It's Been a Minute.

Every Friday we catch up on the week of news and culture, everything.

And every Tuesday I sit down for some long interviews with authors, filmmakers, directors,

and more.

You can find It's Been a Minute on the NPR One app or wherever you get your podcast.

Hello everyone.

This is Brenda, calling from Rome, Italy.

This podcast was recorded at 3 o'clock Eastern on Thursday, September 7th.

Things may have changed by the time you hear it.

Keep up with all of NPR's political coverage at mpr.org on the NPR One app or on your local

public radio station.

All right, here's the show.

Ciao.

It's the NPR Politics podcast here with a round up of the week's political news.

President Trump cut a surprise deal with Democrats on the debt ceiling and that changes the

dynamic for what had been setting up to be a jam pack September for Congress.

I'm Scott Detro, I cover Congress for NPR.

I'm Jeff Bennett, I cover the White House.

I'm Mara Liason, National Political Correspondent.
