I’ve been delaying compiling audio for The New Yorker, because they’ve been steadily reducing the amount of content provided officially, and I hoped I could use more third party sources (which come out after publication) to get more of the magazine.

Since its founding, in 1925, The New Yorker has evolved from a Manhattan-centric “fifteen-cent comic paper” — as its first editor, Harold Ross, put it — to a multi-platform publication known worldwide for its in-depth reporting, political and cultural commentary, fiction, poetry, and humor. The New Yorker continues to stand apart for its rigor, fairness, and excellence, and for its singular mix of stories that surprise, delight, and inform.
