Summary

Trevor and Eugene sit down with author and journalist Katie Couric, who has spent decades at the center of American news, for a wide-ranging conversation about how journalism has evolved. From her early days in traditional broadcast media to her role in today’s digital landscape, Couric has seen the shift from a handful of trusted voices delivering the news to a fragmented, fast-moving media environment where competing narratives often shape how stories are understood. From the evolution of political identity to the influence of social media, the three explore how the way we consume news has changed, and what it might take to rebuild a shared sense of truth in a world that increasingly resists one.
