Welcome to OPB Podcasts, brought to you by Oregon Public Broadcasting. Find daily drops of “Think Out Loud,” weekly uploads of “The Evergreen” and “Politics Now,” limited-run podcasts like "Timber Wars," and bonus content from our podcasting teams.
We had the whole Politics team on the show to talk about the results of the midterm election, from the Oregon governor's race to Washington's 3rd Congressional District to the national "blue wave."
There’s nothing like getting to know a city by wandering around it on foot. We take a walk with Portland-based architecture and arts journalist Brian Libby and talk about Portland's history, its architecture and his own memories of the city.
It’s virtually certain that Democrats will maintain their majority in the Oregon Legislature this year. The question is by how much. A handful of close races should dictate the balance of power in the house and Senate. We’ll discuss what's at stake with less than a week to go before election day.
The cowboy is one of the most recognizable symbols of American Western mythology. But real history tells a different story than Hollywood or history books. We revisit our episode uncovering little-known histories of Chinese cowboys in Eastern Oregon. 🤠
Ballots will soon be on their way to mailboxes across Oregon and Washington and there are some big races to weigh in on. In this episode, four OPB reporters will help us learn more about some of the most important races and issues this election season.
Data centers. Taxes. Law enforcement and accountability. Those are some of the top issues this election cycle for voters east of the Cascade mountains. On this week’s episode of OPB politics now, we explore what’s defining this political moment in eastern and Central Oregon.
We took the show on the road for a live taping in Beaverton! OPB reporters talked about Washington County politics, the race for Washington state’s 3rd Congressional District and the Oregon governor’s race.
Many of us have places that feel like home away from home, where we can be ourselves and be with our community. For some Latinos in the Northwest, mercados provide a sense of home, community care and cultural connection. We explore a mercado in Hillsboro and learn what it means to the people who go there.
We have just over a month left before the November general election. Portland is barreling toward its second election using ranked choice voting. Reporters Bryce Dole and Alex Zielinski talk about the upcoming Portland election and what voters should expect with half of Portland city council seats up for grabs.
We're revisiting our short history of Portland hip-hop, why it wasn't bigger, and what keeps it going. Our guide is J Jackson, who produced the 2025 documentary "Beyond the Beats" in collaboration with OPB's Oregon Experience, KMHD Jazz Radio and Albina Music Trust.
