The FED Weekly is the go-to podcast for current and retired U.S. federal employees who need to stay informed on the issues that matter most. In a rapidly changing political landscape, we deliver concise, weekly updates on the legislative, executive, and agency-level actions that have a direct impact on your professional life and financial future. It is created using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to search through many sources and compile pertinent information for the week. The sources are listed in parentheses in the script. That data is then fed into a text-to-speech application where the audio for the podcast is created. The audio is then uploaded to the various Podcast sites to make it available for download and subscription.
