Deep dives
The Birth of The Daily Podcast
The inception of The Daily podcast marked a significant shift in news presentation, emphasizing a format that delivers in-depth stories rather than multiple headlines. This innovative idea was to create a daily news show that would provide a narrative exploration of current events, diverging from the traditional short news segments. By focusing on one or two major stories each day, the team aimed to start discussions at their roots, addressing listeners' potential knowledge gaps about ongoing issues. This approach allowed The Daily to become not just a news source but a reimagined storytelling platform that resonates deeply with audiences.
