Left, Right & Center
KCRW's podcast Left, Right & Center is hosted by Josh Barro. In each weekly episode, Barro represents the Center viewpoints and "hosts a discussion of the week's news and issues with thought leaders on the Right and Left, and expert guests." The show has been on air since 1996 and aims to "bust[] the opinion bubbles and echo chambers with genuine discussion and real talk."
