Critical journalism on games — of all kinds — is important. Today, we spoke with @lincodega about everything going on with Dungeons and Dragons lately (there’s a lot!!). Give a listen and be sure to follow their work —

Before the modern day influencer, there was @ParisHilton . For years, she was at the center of it all. In her new memoir, she delves into her pre-fame life and how she created a character to protect herself. Today on @NPR : @lilkat_bigworld @hey_hashbrown

NPR is a place full of wonderful, talented people. Brandon is one of the best — innovative, empathetic, driven, always kind, always an ally. I’m so glad we got to work together over the last few years and that I get to call him a friend. WaPo is getting a good one.

Change is good and necessary. And I’m making one. It's been the honor of a lifetime to host Morning Edition for the past 6 years. A lot of stuff went down in this country during that time and it’s been a privilege to do my part to help you make sense of all of it.

I am so shocked and so sad to hear about the tragic death of Blake Hounshell ( @NYTBlake @blakehounshell .) I met him in Cairo when I was 22, on the day I got my very first newspaper job. I was excited when he joined The Times and wish I’d spent more time hanging out with him here.
