Deputy Executive Producer, Today, Explained
Jolie Myers is the deputy executive producer of Today, Explained. Her work often focuses on business, economics, pop culture, international news, or the intersection of all those topics. She’s hung out with a Russian troll in St. Petersburg, caught up with underground feminists in Beijing, interviewed TV writers in Berlin and sat down with fans of authoritarianism in Budapest. She was part of a Pulitzer finalist team in 2021 that covered the assassination of Iran’s top general by American forces.
Before joining Vox, Myers spent 13 years working in public radio as a producer and editor. She attended Michigan State University and still considers herself deeply Midwestern despite having not lived in the region for nearly two decades.
