1A
Monday - Friday at 11am
1A is a show about a changing America. 1A convenes a daily conversation about the most important issues of our time.
1A explores important issues such as policy, politics, technology, and what connects us across the fissures that divide the country. The program also delves into pop culture, sports, and humor. 1A’s goal is to act as a national mirror—taking time to help America look at itself and to ask what it wants to be. With a name inspired by the First Amendment, the show celebrates free speech and the power of the spoken word.
1A is pre-recorded, but you can share your opinions and questions anytime at (855) 236-1212 and see upcoming show topics at the 1A website.
