I'm Doug Johnson. This week, we play music from Adele’s new album, which is number one on Billboard’s top two hundred ...
And we answer a question from Thailand about former basketball star Michael Jordan ...
But first, a report on the state of women and girls in the United States.

Women in America
DOUG JOHNSON: March is National Women’s History Month in the United States. It is a time to recognize, honor and celebrate the important part that women play in shaping America’s history. It is also a time to call attention to the social, political and economic problems facing women and girls. Faith Lapidus has our story.
FAITH LAPIDUS: Earlier this month, the White House Council on Women and Girls released a historic report on the condition of women in America. It is the first time since nineteen sixty-three that the government has released such a detailed report on the subject.
The report is called “Women in America: Indicators of Social and Economic Well-Being.”
