KUAR's New Week-In-Review Podcast

KUAR Week-In-Review Podcast.
Michael Hibblen

After a busy news week in Arkansas, KUAR is proud to debut a new podcast featuring the station's news staff discussing key stories covered this week.

The special session of the Arkansas Legislature was the top item, but we also discuss a federal appeals court rejecting the state's 12 week abortion ban, Central Arkansas Water objecting to a government settlement with ExxonMobil, the state Board of Education discussing the future of schools in Pulaski County, the Quapaw Tribe pushing back against objections to efforts to get a special designation for a piece of land and we speak with NPR’s Steve Inskeep about his new book on Native Americans being forced to move west in the 1830s.

Michael Hibblen was a journalist for KUAR News from May 2009 — December 2022. During his final 10 years with the station, he served as News Director. In January 2023, he was hired by Arkansas PBS to become its Senior Producer/ Director of Public Affairs.
Jacob Kauffman is a former news anchor and reporter for KUAR.
Sarah Whites-Koditschek is a former News Anchor/ Reporter for KUAR News and Arkansas Public Media.
