Thanks to NPR and Host Kelly McEvers, October for the NPR podcast Embedded will be Trump-focused. A good opportunity to learn more about our current president & those president-adjacent:

NPR's Embedded takes a story from the news and goes deep. And in a new series of episodes, host Kelly McEvers tells the inside stories of what Donald Trump and members of his administration were doing before they got into politics - from a new kind of reality show, to the troubled development of a golf course, to the Hollywood background of a presidential adviser.

The first few episodes of the month have been uploaded and shed some light on some of the proudest portions of Trump's life:

Trump Stories: The Golf Course (43:25)

When Donald Trump came to Rancho Palos Verdes in Southern California in 2002, he was greeted as a "white knight." Trump was buying a golf club that had gone into bankruptcy when the 18th hole had literally fallen into the ocean. But what followed was a decade of public insults, lawsuits, and broken rules.
