Muthoni Kariuki

Ten years behind the desk, and I still read the story twice before I say it

I’m Muthoni. I read my first bulletin on a student radio station in 2014 and my first live television hour in 2018. Since then I have anchored a morning show, a late bulletin and a long list of conferences where the speaker was late and the audience was polite.

The Briefing began in 2024 as a Sunday message to the producers I work with. It is still free, still written on Saturday night, and still the week in order, with the numbers checked twice.

If you enjoy what I make, there are a few ways to help me keep making it.
