Reporters Andy Lyman and Laura Paskus covered the first Trump administration—and they know how easy it is for people to lose track of New Mexico news when everyone is overwhelmed by the national scene. They also know it’s easy for people to tune out when everything in the news is crazy or upsetting or scary.

On the Lesser Known New Mexico Podcast1, you’ll hear interviews with people from around New Mexico. Plus, they’ll have news and media analysis, and will regularly check in with their favorite journalists and hear what they’re working on, too.

Really, they’re just two friends who like learning about people’s stories and they think you should subscribe and follow along, too.

Yes! You’re right! The name of the podcast is inspired by the lesser prairie-chicken. And we appreciate the cool photo our friend Laurel Ladwig is letting us use for our logo. Behold!
