Özet

Deep Cuts is a podcast about the deep, sudden cuts made by the U.S. Federal Government in 2025 told by the people most affected by them.

The first series will feature interviews with people who worked with or for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) sharing stories about their work, career paths, and what inspired them to undertake a career of public service and humanitarian aid.

Learn more about the programs that helped millions of people around the world on behalf of the American people for decades and the dedicated people who made them happen.

Special thanks to Open Gov Hub for providing studio recording space in downtown Washington, DC!
