    In our last episode, we spoke with a veteran of Olympics coverage, in Milan for his eighth Games. This week, we sit down with an Olympics rookie, also in Milan, who has brought to bear the reporting skills she honed covering hardball national politics.

In this episode, the host of this storied event joins her predecessor for a conversation about the Breakfast’s winning formula: Invite a newsmaker and a group of reporters to sit down for an hour and have a conversation, on the record. And to explore how its guiding principle – to generate “light, not heat” – stands today.
