C-SPAN's The Weekly

Jeff Schogol: His Best Questions From Pentagon Press Briefings


Listen Later

BRIGADIER GENERAL PAT RYDER: "All right, let me do one more from the phone here. Jeff Schogol, Task & Purpose.

JEFF SCHOGOL: "Thank you. Does the DOD know for a fact that Prigozhin is still alive or are we in a Weekend at Bernie's scenario right now?"

The premise of that question? The June mutiny against Russian president Vladimir Putin.

Who got the question?

Defense Department Spokesperson Brigadier General Pat Ryder.

But the latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly" isn't about President Putin.

And it's not about General Ryder.

It's about the person who asked the question.

Jeff Schogol. 

He's the Pentagon reporter for Task & Purpose ... and he poses some of the sharpest, most difficult, and sometimes most entertaining questions you can get at a Defense Department press briefing.

Want to hear the best examples of his work?

Listen to the latest episode of "The Weekly."

It's the best of Jeff Schogol ... covering the Pentagon.
