The Intelligence
The Economist's daily briefing: three global stories in under twenty-five minutes, every weekday.
Daily
The Intelligence is the daily one, and usually the first thing I listen to. Three or four stories, reported quickly, with correspondents calling in from wherever the news is.

Tracking
A tracking idea.
The question I’d want to answer is which stories keep coming back, and which ones harden into a lasting theme. But it runs every weekday, so before tracking anything I’d have to decide whether coding it segment by segment is worth the effort. For now I’ve only catalogued it.
