Senior editor Mike Mulcahy has been at MPR News on and off — mostly on — since 1985. He’s covered everything from a strike at the Hormel factory to the crash of Paul Wellstone’s plane to the Twins winning the World Series. He has thoughts on radio journalism before and after the digital age and what it means to cover state politics in a post 9/11 world.

Mike joined MPR News host Angela Davis for a look back at his storied career (don’t worry, he’s not going anywhere) and a look ahead to the coming election and baseball seasons.

Guest:

  • Mike Mulcahy is a senior editor at MPR News and the host of Politics Friday, which will return to MPR News at noon beginning March 4.
