In this week’s episode of Clark Talks, Columbian reporters Dameon Pesanti and Katie Gillespie sit down with retiring Columbian editor-in-chief Lou Brancaccio.

Brancaccio announced his retirement last week, and will now take on a role as editor emeritus, contributing a monthly Press Talk column and sitting on the Columbian’s editorial board.
