The Future is the Past - Molly O'Toole '09

Pulitzer Prize winner? Check. Reporter for the LA Times? Check. Cornellian? Check! Tune in as we chat with Molly O’Toole ’09 about her award-winning work on the “Out Crowd” podcast--investigating the Trump administration’s policy on asylum officers and asylum seekers. Joined by host BJ Siasoco ’07, we dig into her career, her thoughts on media in society, and of course, her love for Cornell.

“I feel like I tricked someone somewhere where I get this job that’s sort of just endlessly fun and I’m never bored.”

*If you're sensitive to strong language, please note that there is swearing in this episode.
