Chronically Informed
Welcome to Chronically Informed.
Each week, we break down national headlines, explore local and state politics from across the country, and examine how news stories are framed, reported, and understood.
The modern news cycle moves fast. Most coverage focuses on what happened. We're interested in why it happened, how it was reported, what perspectives may be missing, and what it means in the bigger picture.
We believe most issues are more nuanced than the news and social media make them seem. Our goal isn't to tell you what to think. It's to help you understand the story beneath the headline, consider multiple perspectives, and engage with complex issues in an informed way.
Whether you're politically engaged every day or just trying to stay informed without getting overwhelmed, Chronically Informed is for people who want context, nuance, and understanding.
New episodes on Sundays.

We're Brittany and Aaron, and every week we'll break down the biggest national and local political stories, explain what's actually happening, compare how different outlets frame the same news, and have the conversations we wish more people were having.
This week, we break down the allegations that finally pushed Platner out of the Senate race, the detention of a U.S. congressman by IDF forces at the border with Palestine, and the latest developments in the ongoing tensions with Iran.
