1A
Weekdays at 10:00am
Every day, host Jenn White convenes a conversation about the most important issues of our time.
With a name inspired by the First Amendment, 1A explores important issues such as policy, politics, technology, and what connects us across the fissures that divide the country. The program also delves into pop culture, sports, and humor. 1A's goal is to act as a national mirror -- taking time to help America look at itself and to ask what it wants to be.
The conversation isn't just on air. 1A invites you to join in.The show regularly posts questions and requests for feedback on this page: http://the1a.org/ask-1a. And you can also engage on Twitter, Facebook, or by texting 1A to 63735.
