A popular NPR podcast host has quietly left the public radio network after human resources reportedly launched a probe into his workplace conduct following complaints from a female employee.
Ramtin Arablouei, co-host of NPR’s “Throughline” podcast, has departed the network after a female employee of the show complained about his workplace conduct, leading to an internal investigation, according to two people with knowledge of the matter, the New York Times reported.
However, it is not immediately clear if Arablouei’s departure is directly related to the investigation or not.
Arablouei has not co-hosted an episode of “Throughline” for several weeks — and neither NPR nor Arablouei has publicly commented on his absence.
