The Takeout from CBS News Radio

Weekdays at 9pm

The Takeout with Major Garrett serves up politics, policy, pop culture and more every weeknight at 5 p.m. ET on CBS News 24/7. Built on the foundation of a widely listened-to podcast that ran for eight successful seasons, this never-take-yourself-too-seriously show harnesses the best and latest reporting from CBS News with a clear motto: relentlessly curious, steadfastly non-ideological. Driven by national politics but living comfortably in deep discussions of economics, pop culture, sports and technology, The Takeout cuts through the noise to simplify and explain the complexities and acronyms of official Washington for the modern streaming audience. It’s serious discussion presented through the lens of the politics of culture and the culture of politics—but the show doesn’t take itself too seriously.

Host Major Garrett is CBS News chief Washington correspondent and a veteran journalist with decades of experience covering the White House and national politics for major networks including Fox News and CNN. A graduate of the University of Missouri with degrees in journalism and political science, Garrett serves as a fill-in and substitute anchor for CBS Evening News and Face the Nation. Through unique guest interviews with lawmakers, actors, authors, and newsmakers, plus investigative journalism and original segments, Garrett presents the day’s biggest events with the depth and insight that comes from years on the front lines of American politics. Available as both a streaming show on CBS News 24/7 and a podcast across all platforms, The Takeout delivers smart political conversation that’s accessible, engaging, and always food for thought.
