All Things Considered
Mon-Fri from 4-7 p.m. and Sat-Sun from 5-6 p.m.
All Things Considered is the most listened-to, afternoon drive-time, news radio program in the country. Every weekday the two-hour show is hosted by Ailsa Chang, Audie Cornish, Mary Louise Kelly, and Ari Shapiro. ATC offers a potent mix of national and international news with regular state news updates and feature reports from the Wyoming Public Radio newsroom. In 1977, ATC expanded to seven days a week with a one-hour show on Saturdays and Sundays, which is hosted today by Michel Martin.
