Our Editor's Take
The President's Daily Brief Podcast shares international headlines, insights, and solutions. The goal of this podcast is to emulate the President's Daily Brief, also known as the PBD. For context, the president of the United States receives a daily briefing each morning. In it, he learns about the prevalent issues and opportunities awaiting the nation. It discusses threats, impacts, and solutions brought by spies and analysts. Now, audiences can hear their own version of this report.
The show's host, Bryan Dean Wright, is a former CIA operations officer. He uses his professional experience to curate the most crucial intelligence briefs. Record inflation, immigration, war—the headlines range widely. The scope includes both foreign and domestic affairs. He explains them and their impacts in 15 to 20 minutes. Why should listeners care about national security? What effect will threats in the Middle East have on audiences and their families? Wright always focuses on how his topics are relevant to his listeners.
Beyond providing context, Wright offers his own solutions. Because, as he says, that's what the president expects from PDBs. Audiences might hear discussions about former president Donald Trump and his administration. Wright might discuss insight into the CIA director's national intelligence plans. No matter the topic, audiences can expect powerful information in a compact format.
