About the show: All Things Considered

In 1977, All Things Considered expanded to seven days a week with a one-hour show on Saturdays and Sundays. NPR's Arun Rath hosts on the weekends. During each broadcast, stories and reports come to listeners from NPR reporters and correspondents based throughout the United States and the world. The hosts interview newsmakers and contribute their own reporting.
