America’s Song, Part 1

washingtonpost.com/podcasts/post-reports/americas-song-part-50/?tid=aud_rsslink&utm_source=podcasts&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=post-reports

With his performance of “God Bless America” during Game 3 of the 2001 World Series, NYPD officer Daniel Rodriguez comforted a nation still grieving in the wake of 9/11. It felt like a timeless moment. Instead, it proved fleeting. Twenty years later, the reasons for that tell a story of the political divisions and embellished patriotism that now polarize American sports. The weight of it all can be felt through the struggles of Rodriguez, who’s still trying to bless people with his voice as America attempts to rediscover its own.


Join Washington Post sports columnist Jerry Brewer, sports features writer Kent Babb and audio producer Bishop Sand as they explore how a man and a nation have attempted to heal and find meaning after trauma and tragedy.

Delta’s stress test on schools

washingtonpost.com/podcasts/post-reports/deltas-stress-test-on-schools/?tid=aud_rsslink&utm_source=podcasts&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=post-reports

The Biden administration has made in-person learning a priority for this school year. Now that most kids are back in school, the question on everyone’s mind is: Will it last? 

Read more:
