As the anchor of MSNBC’s nightly The 11th Hour, Brian Williams is no stranger to live coverage of major breaking news, and now he’s narrating a new podcast about broadcast news, We Interrupt This Broadcast, which tells each story through the voices of the broadcast journalists, producers, photographers and others who covered the story on that day.

Based on the book of the same name by writer Joe Garner, We Interrupt This Broadcast tells each story as it unfolded through the eyes of reporters, news anchors and the photographers, producers and technical crews that drop everything to cover major news. “You know, I was there for some of these,” Williams told me. “And I’ve delved into all the audio, and I’ve sat in the studio and narrated them, and they still make my pulse race. They still make me emotional.”

In episode 13 of the podcast, I spoke with Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace on the 25th anniversary of the Fox News Sunday public affairs show.

“When I came on [in 2003], I wanted to put Fox News Sunday at the forefront of the conversation, that it would be taken as seriously and make as much if not more news than any of the other Sunday shows,” Wallace told me. “And I think we’ve succeeded at that.”
