NPR's Kelly McEvers has been named as one of two new co-hosts of All Things Considered, joining veterans Robert Siegel and Audie Cornish. During Sound Ideas, she talked with GLT's Charlie Schlenker about her time in Syria, the reporting she'll have the freedom to do as one of four rotating All Things Considered hosts, and the future of radio story telling.

WGLT Senior Reporter Charlie Schlenker has spent more than three award-winning decades in radio. He lives in Normal with his family.
