15 分钟In the U.S., national security news can feel far away from daily life.
Distant wars, murky conflicts, diplomacy behind closed doors.
On our new show, Sources and Methods,
NPR reporters on the ground bring you stories of real people helping you understand why distant events matter here at home.
Listen to Sources and Methods on the NPR app or wherever you get your podcasts.
