The Daily by the New York Times is an awesome podcast, it's basically an audio newspaper: https://www.nytimes.com/podcasts/the-daily
I would prefer something as fresh as a newspaper. Something like what they had on radio when I was a child. News in spoken form every hour. I guess that still exists :) But listening to radio is a bit clumsy. Guess I should look for a radio station that publishes their news as mp3?
