News Beat from OU Daily, a weekly podcast featuring the week's headlines from the news and culture desks about the city and campus, released its newest episode Friday.

This week, news reporter Megan Pratt reviewed this week's headlines, including the proposed entertainment district for Norman. 

While the weekly episode will air on Fridays ranging from 8-15 minutes, News Beat will release longer, special editions before OU Daily’s print publications launch.
