Why can Gideon Rachman not do more with his connections?
Rachman ought to be to geopolitics journalism what his colleague Martin Wolf is to economics comment and analysis. Yet somehow he doesn’t quite pull it all together. I have wondered why, both for his written pieces and for his podcast (which is now more than a couple of years old). He has amazing connections in the world of boffins and pointy-headed grand strategists as well as hardboiled politicians. Yet what he produces week after week both in print as well as audio are narrow and siloed views. The great non-reporter journalists are those who can give us a cross-cutting view of politics and economics, across space and across time. In other words, Gideon, using your fantastic connections to make connections so that we get a panoramic view of world affairs

This is my favourite podcast out there! Each conversation is so succinct and the guests are very articulate. It’s the complete opposite of our current Twitter news culture, without straying into being boring or full of waffle. I always learn a lot! Definitely recommend a listen.
