Award-winning public media journalist Tonya Mosley has been named co-host of Fresh Air with Terry Gross, the radio program and podcast devoted to contemporary arts and issues, produced by WHYY in Philadelphia and distributed by NPR. Terry Gross will continue as co-executive producer and host.
Mosley is a correspondent and former host of Here & Now, the midday radio show from NPR and WBUR Boston, and the creator and host of the podcast Truth Be Told. She has been a regular contributing interviewer for Fresh Air since 2021.
“Fresh Air listeners will be pleased to learn that Terry Gross’ role remains unchanged,” notes WHYY CEO and President Bill Marrazzo. “At the same time, we are adding another top-notch interviewer and host who brings her own distinctive voice and expertise to the program.”
“Tonya’s wide range of knowledge and experience, her warm inviting presence, and her ability to make a deep connection with guests, make her a perfect fit for our show,” said Gross. “I’m thrilled that she is our new cohost, and I know our listeners will be, too.”
Adds Mosley, “It is a tremendous honor to join Terry in this mission-driven work to inform, inspire, and delight listeners through long-form conversation. Terry’s ‘driveway moments’ have been like a beacon throughout my career. She has inspired me to use my deep curiosity to help us make sense of ourselves and each other. Fresh Air is unmatched in its ability to remind us of our humanity, and this opportunity to continue the work alongside Terry and the Fresh Air team is a dream come true.”
Mosley’s past interviews for Fresh Air include actors Brooke Shields, Halle Berry, Michelle Yeoh, comedian Robin Thede, and several fiction and non-fiction authors.
Mosley has also served as a television anchor, producer, and correspondent in several markets, including Boston, Detroit, Louisville, Kentucky, and Seattle. She has won several awards for her groundbreaking journalism, including a 2016 Emmy Award for her PBS series Beyond Ferguson, NABJ and RTDNA awards for the public radio series Black in Seattle, and a Washington State Association for Justice award for her reporting on conflicting reports from Seattle police about a murder investigation. In 2015, she was awarded the John S. Knight Fellowship at Stanford University, where she co-created a curriculum for journalists on the implications of implicit bias. She also co-wrote a Belgian/American experimental study on the effects of protest coverage.
This is a great tasting bread made with “wild” yeast. There is no commercial yeast added. It is not difficult to keep the sourdough starter alive, and you only need to store a small amount of starter in between baking sessions. You can keep the starter in your fridge for up to two weeks. Longer than that and you'll want to feed it (step one in the recipe). Kayte learned this method from Alex Chambers, host and producer of WFIU’s Inner States, though over the years she has modified it to her own tastes and abilities.
Sourdough Bread
(makes 2 loaves)
Step 1: Make the starter
• 2 T. flour (Kayte uses half all-purpose, half whole wheat for all of the steps)
• 1 T. water
• 1 T. of sourdough starter*
Mix these three together and let it sit out for 3-6 hours.
* If you don’t have a starter already, learn how to make one at bit.ly/ee-starter.
Step 2: Make the leaven
• 1 c. flour
• ½ c. water
• The starter that you mixed in Step 1 and let sit for 3-6 hours
Mix these together and let it sit for another 3-4 hours.
Step 3: Save starter for next time
Take out 1 T. of this mixture and put it in a jar with a lid in the fridge (as a starter for next time).
Step 4: Make the dough
• 6 c. flour
• 2½ tsp. salt
• 2-3 c. water
• The leaven that you mixed in Step 2 and let sit out for 3-4 hours.
Mix the dry flour and salt. Add some of the water to the leaven and mix it, adding more of the water until it becomes soupy. Mix the soupy leaven and the rest of the water into the dry ingredients. Add enough water to mix it all into a “shaggy mass”—a pretty wet dough.
Let it sit for 2-4 hours, until it has visibly grown and become airy and tender to the touch.
Every 30 or 45 minutes, return to the dough and “fold it.” Folding involves grabbing an edge of the dough, pulling it up, and pushing it down into the center of the dough. Do this again to the opposite edge. Repeat, making four folds, total. Do this several times while the dough is rising.
Step 5: Shaping and proofing
Using just enough flour to keep dough from sticking to work surface or to your fingers, gently and quickly shape dough into a ball. Try to create a tight surface over the top of the dough ball.
Place the shaped dough on a floured piece of parchment, seams side down. Cover with a floured piece of plastic wrap and let it sit for about an hour.
Preheat your oven to 500 F and place a Dutch oven (two if you have them) inside the oven, with the lid on.
Step 6: Bake using one of these two methods
1. Dutch oven method (cast iron pot with a lid—with or without an enamel coating—gives the bread great oven spring and a wonderfully crunchy crust)
Preheat the pot in the oven while the shaped loaf is proofing. You'll need at least 45 minutes to pre-heat.
When dough is ready, carefully remove pot from oven. Grabbing two corners of the parchment, lower the bread dough into the pot. Quickly, decisively, and carefully slash across the top of the loaf with a sharp knife, razor blade, or lame. Cover with lid place in the oven and reduce heat to 450. Bake 35-40 minutes, removing the lid about halfway through. Bake until loaf is beautifully browned. Remove pot from oven, dump the loaf on the counter, and thump the bottom. If it has a hollow sound, it should be done. Cool on a rack for an hour before cutting into it.
2. Steamy oven method (if you don’t have a pot to use, or want to bake more than one loaf at a time)
Put your shaped loaves on a baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 525 (or as hot as your oven goes) and pour 1 cup hot water onto a tray underneath the baking sheet right after putting the loaves in the oven. After about 3 minutes, turn the temperature down to 450 and bake about 30-40 minutes, until the loaves are golden-brown and give a good hollow thump when you tap the bottom.
