The Journal's series "Camp Swamp Road" is a Pulitzer finalist!!!
This is the first time @wsj has been a finalist in the audio category, which is very cool. I'm so happy that the reporting of @vbauerlein and the work of our team has been recognized.

I first heard about Kyla Simpson’s story close to a year ago: A surrogate who gave birth to triplets for a father in China, then was left to raise the children after he never retrieved them from the US.
The full story is stranger, and sadder, than I could have imagined.

The Scottish invasion of Boston -- and how they drank the city dry -- is my favorite news story.

The road-rage killing looked like an open-and-shut case of self-defense. But the victim’s sister was full of questions: “Something’s not right.”

Stein-Erik Soelberg became increasingly paranoid this spring and he shared suspicions with ChatGPT about a surveillance campaign being carried out against him. At almost every turn, his chatbot agreed with him.

“The letter bearing Trump’s name, which was reviewed by the Journal, is bawdy—like others in the album. It contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a squiggly “Donald” below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.”

We're not like a regular news podcast. We're a cool news podcast.
Can we talk about the @WSJ podcast, The Journal, and the A++ puns that @Ryan_Knutson and @kate_linebaugh bring?? Actual news, with a wink. I love it!
