Six days a week, from Monday through Saturday, the hosts of NPR's All Things Considered help you make sense of a major news story and what it means for you, in 15 minutes. 

The crimes the Tate brothers are charged with are the foundation of a lucrative business believed to exploit women and young girls.  We talk to a reporter who's dug into a similar investigation.

The Tates were arrested in Miami over the weekend after Crown Prosecutors issued 38 new criminal charges. 

This brings the total number of charges against the pair to 59, and and they include multiple counts of rape and sex trafficking. 

The brothers deny the charges against them. Andrew Tate is known for polarizing and misogynistic views.

This episode was produced by Mia Venkat and Chris Harland-Dunaway, with audio engineering by Tiffany Vera Castro, and additional reporting from Robbie Griffiths.  It was edited by Justine Kenin.

Our director is Jonas Adams. 

Our interim executive producer is Courtney Dorning.

Nolan's 'The Odyssey': a tale of a hero and trickster retold for modern times

On Thursday, President Trump gave a primetime address in which he sowed doubts about the integrity of U.S. election.

He tried to convince Americans that the election system was vulnerable to fraud, but offered no new evidence that details any fraudulent votes.

Instead, he declassified intelligence documents that he says will demonstrate "shocking vulnerabilities in our election infrastructure."

What's in these documents - and what do they tell us about how elections are run in the US?

The World Cup final is set. What did we learn from this year's tournament?

Todd Blanche is President Trump's pick for Attorney General. He's currently in that role in an acting capacity and hopes to convince lawmakers to give him the job officially.

But Blanche's nomination is facing pushback over criticisms that the Department of Justice has become politicized and over his handling of the Epstein files.
