Fast information for slow subjects
This podcast in an excellent way to stay current on numerous subjects related to foreign policy. Mark interviews relevant and articulate people working in the guts of the given topic, producing a mid range discussion that is approachable and moderately challenging in its detail level. The information has a long shelf life. If shows like Democracy Now! or a more mainstream news is like a sugary drink, Global Dispatches is a low-glycemic nutritious conversation chalk full of fiber. It nurtures the intellect without playing to basic emotions as “infotainment”. In a world of deafening screams and nonsensical polemicists and op ed journalism, it is among my most trusted foreign policy / news podcasts.
