While Al Gore is now known for his passion for fighting climate change, Vice President Joe Biden just launched his own daily news podcast on Monday. Called Biden's Briefing, the audio content features news curated by the former Vice President of the United States of America. In his daily news podcast, the beloved ex-VP will be discussing conversation-starting national news stories based on the articles and opinions he is reading.
You can listen to it on Amazon Echo (by saying "Alexa, enable Biden's Briefing," as the website points out) and Google Home. Spotify is also a partner, as they recently branched out to start streaming podcasts. There is also an option to receive Biden's Briefing via email.
