Ari Melber, MSNBC's Chief Legal Correspondent, owns the mic on this nightly news and opinions program and podcast. The American attorney and journalist brings listeners the hottest political news.

Melber's Supreme Court coverage gained widespread recognition, winning him an Emmy. His show The Beat earned a nomination for Outstanding Live Interview.

This path took him to television and then to this role hosting his own show.
