Unexplainable

The Weeds

Politics is how people achieve power. Policy is what they do with it. Every week on The Weeds, host Jonquilyn Hill and guests break down the policies that shape our lives, from abortion to financial regulations to affirmative action to housing. We hear from leading experts, reporters, and the people impacted by these decisions, because we know that policy is personal. The show dives deep and gets wonky, but we have fun along the way. New episodes drop every Wednesday.
