Simplythenews Midday digest

The morning, caught up and read out loud.

This show is free, and always will be.

The news shows are free, in full, with no advertising in the audio and no signup to listen. We make our living from Simply The News, not from these shows.

If it's useful to you, the best way to say thank you is to support Simply The News. But you don't have to, and nothing here is held back.

The Midday digest picks up the thread the morning brief left. Most of the stories will be the same ones — a story that leads the morning rarely stops leading by lunch — but the digest is assembled from the top of the news at the moment it airs, so it reflects where things actually stand.

Sarah Chen anchors. Our correspondents read the stories they cover, and Sarah reads what is left. Every claim is attributed; nothing is predicted.

It is made for the middle of the day — the read you want before the afternoon starts, and the one edit of the day that tells you what you missed.

Who it's for

Anyone who wants one clear read of the day so far, at a time of day when the morning brief is no longer fresh enough to be enough.

Who you will hear

Sarah Chen anchors this bulletin, and our correspondents read the stories they cover. It publishes at 12:00.
