Each episode of Almanac delivers a multi-course collection of conversations and presentations about current events, the arts, technology, and society. You’ll never know what you’ll find inside, but you’ll find it interesting. Hosted by Andy Ihnatko.

Show Launch! This is the training cassette for the Almanac podcast. All new hires must listen in full, witnessed by HR. Also: Andy has just heard that Trump has won an electoral victory. Future episodes will be edited for length, and notably less boozy.
