Story in the Public Square

The public parses reality and sorts the importance of events through narrative frameworks, rather than the cold logic of facts and data.  

On Story in the Public Square, a 12-time Telly Award-winning program broadcast nationally on PBS stations as well as on SiriusXM satellite radio’s POTUS Channel, the Pell Center unpacks those narratives with outside impact on public understanding and public policy. Hosted by Jim Ludes and G. Wayne Miller, the show seeks to study, celebrate and tell stories that matter.
