This episode from our Apple News In Conversation archives is our most-listened-to interview of the year. It was originally published in June 2025. In his 22-year career in the FBI, undercover agent Scott Payne infiltrated some of the most dangerous criminal and extremist groups in America, from a motorcycle gang called the Outlaws to a white-supremacist group known as the Base. Payne shares his firsthand case accounts of gathering intelligence and stopping illegal activity in his memoir, Code Name: Pale Horse; How I Went Undercover to Expose America’s Nazis. His story is also featured on the latest season of the Slate podcast White Hot Hate. Payne sat down with Apple News In Conversation host Shumita Basu to talk about some of his most harrowing moments on the job and the growing threat of extremism in the U.S.

All this week, What Next and What Next: TBD are re-airing some of our favorite conversations from throughout the year and checking back with the people in those conversations to see how things have – or haven't – changed. This episode is from October. In an executive order, Donald Trump declared “Antifa” a terrorist organization. As it isn't an organization, there aren't leaders to target, so zealous conservatives took aim at Mark Bray, a Rutgers professor who wrote a book about fighting fascism eight years ago. The clumsy attempts to get him fired didn't bother him—but the doxxing and death threats were enough to convince him he needed to leave America. Guest: Mark Bray, assistant teaching professor at Rutgers, author of Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook.

When screenwriter Russell Hainline first moved to L.A., his goal was to write high-budget monster movies and thrillers. Then one day, he was prompted to write a Hallmark holiday rom-com, and something clicked. In this special holiday episode, Russell talks about his breakout Netflix hit Hot Frosty and how he found his groove writing movies for the Hallmark Channel. He also gets to the heart of why people connect to these movies and explains how he's able to convey steamy sexual tension between chaste TV movie characters.  This episode was produced by Cameron Drews.

P.J. Glasser and Jake Hasan recap and react to last night's Monday Night Football which saw the 49ers offense cover the Over by themselves with 48 points scored and ask if we should actually take them seriously as contenders in the NFC. Plus, what's next for the Colts, as their playoff hopes continue to sink. Then, we break down their bets for Thursday's NFL Christmas Day Slate, asking what to do when it comes to the Broncos laying nearly two touchdowns at the Chiefs, the Lions attempting to get back into the win column against the Vikings, and Cowboys-Commanders. The hour wraps with a deep dive into Saturday's NFL Slate, explaining why they're hopping on the Houston Texans bandwagon as slight road underdogs against the Chargers, and Quarterback uncertainty in Ravens-Packers.
