I love Anne’s interview style. I’ll be a listener for sure.

So well presented and brilliantly produced! I’ll be tuning in every week for sure!

Wow, this is literally on of the most racist podcast I have ever listened to. Susan Glasser dies not hold Bennett to any standard for his racist policies and seems to in 100% agreement with his views n Mideast Policy-That Israel is not the epicenter of problems. Naftali Bennett said I’ve killed a lot of Arabs in my life and I have no problem with that”. Glasser is so overly complimentary to racist Bennet it’s actually embarassing. The US is not all Pro-Israel.

The perfect podcast for new learners in the sector as well as more experienced people as well in order to grasp the current conversations in the industry!

I would never subscribe to a magazine who tells lies and never tells the truth! Does China own you too? They now own most of my country thanks to the leadership of this country who sold us out! It is about to get real!

We miss her

Why does the rest of the entire world have to become like “US” as you repeatedly have your listener hear through your interviews, in order to the “globalized” world be “right” (meaning whatever is “right” through the USA’s lenses)? Is the USA system even the best system? Because it sounds like that’s how you see the world, and if so, this postcast is a waste of time. Both for the ones who agree with the idea that the USA’s international and national businesses as usual is the best solution and for the ones who don’t, as it gives no new inputs or perspectives to neither.

With the podcast that does it all back, I’m excited after this first episode. Tune in if you’re interested in learning about complex topics, global political issues, and more

Everything learned from Trump bios? Trump has no relationships. Just people wanting to play him

One of the best political podcasts around. Susan Glasser’s vast knowledge and experience shines through in her in-depth interviews.

Please don’t go!

Susan's program is top notch. Impressive line-up of guests, jouranlistic excellence in how she develops the discussion, and very timely with topics. I listen to this program regularly to better inform my work on international relations.

My first listen was to a January piece on Andrew Jackson and Jacksonian echoes in Trump's election and performance in office with a biographer. Strangely, no mention of race other than a dismissive phrase about Jackson's conventional critics. I didn't sense the guest would be reluctant or uncomfortable discussing this essential nexus of the two presidents, but Glasser avoided the obvious elephant in the podcast booth. Two stars for the author's foreign policy insights, zero for Glasser's journalism.

If you are studying International Realtions you will love tuning in to this every monday.

My favorite podcast for thoughtful commentary on geopolitical topics. High-calibur guests!

I am impressed by the interviewer, her guests, and the range of topics. It is refreshing to listen to thoughtful interviews where the questions are meaningful, and the guests are given time to formulate thoughtful answers. I am also impressed by Susan’s depth and breadth of knowledge.

Great interviews, timely topics, and top-flight guests make this amongst the best of the international affairs shows and the one of a handful of podcasts I make sure to keep up with, no matter how busy I get.

This is my favorite podcast - hands down - thank you Susan Glasser!

terrific episode. the interruptions were excessive and disappointing.

Thoughtful, smart, insightful, real facts presented in a logical and interesting format. This is my first podcast review, but feel this podcast series should not be missed.

I understand my world better because of this podcast. And it makes me think. For days.

I am blown away with her intelligence every episode. Great podcast

Susan Glasser is a wonderful interviewer and I have especially appreciated her knowledge and exchanges about Russia.

She needs to follow up on some of the comments made by people she’s interviewing. Otherwise good discussion.

Week after week I am excited when Susan Glasser’s podcast drops into my basket, and I’ve yet to be disappointed. Smart & interesting — what more could one want?

In depth conversations with people who matter.

This is a very important podcast. Recommend this to legislators and staff. Susan does a great job with knowledageble guests. She is well prepared, of course, but also flexible to allow the interview to move into unexpected terrain. She lets the subject speak for itself. "All sides" should pay attention to her work here.

Are you looking for objective conversations or analysis? Maybe you want balanced conversation about key issues. Or maybe you’d like the host & moderator to be less biased. I’m afraid you won’t find it here. Now do you like your interviews with a heavy dose of democrat talking points & international globalism that always finds fault with the US? You’ve come to the right place. This is boilerplate Politico leftist opinions at its finest. And although the guests come from both sides of the political isle, the interviews are always slanted to try & get the guest to decry anything that isn’t progressive leftist ideology. Susan Glasser’s obvious progressive liberal leanings always filter the conversations. She can’t help but to include them. So know before you listen what you’ll get. Production values are all over the place. One episode the audio is potted way too high with distortion or background noise. And another is filled with echoes or low quality sound. Needs considerable work on that front.

Susan is a phenomenal interviewer. All of her guests are high-profile politicians and each conversation is highly relevant. Great podcast for anyone interested in foreign policy.

I read Politico so I enjoy the work of Glasser in print. However, in podcast form the interviews seem forced. It sounds like Glasser has an agenda for the interview before it starts instead of letting the interview lead itself.

This is a crappy podcast, they mention trumps name and laugh, comment on middle America suggesting most did not go to college and laugh. Talk about how to get dems back in power but never talk about what the voters want just what they want. Were are listening and we're are not all white. We have the internet and do our own research. No one cares what actors say.

I think so! This is easily the best political podcast I've been able to find (and it beats the "Sunday shows" as well). Rather than featuring an endless stream of professional opinion makers (mere observers) carping about the end of our democracy, Glasser engages in nuanced conversations with the real players who have, or have had, positions of real power. Ok, some other shows occasionally do the same, but her incisive questions are such as to elicit from her guests insights that are alternately surprising, enlightening, frustrating, fascinating, boring...

I absolutely love this podcasts. Glasser is incredibly smart and probing. She is an excellent host

Susan Glasser has this amazing cleared eyed presence that lends this podcast an air of dignity that is much needed these days. Her guests are experts in their fields and bring a sense of security and understanding to volatile and complicated topics.

Susan Glaser is like a nicer Kara Swisher but about Politics not Tech. She was the first person to humanize Condie Rice for me. It's a nice, adult balance to more incendiary or lighter fare. Thank you Susan for being so smart!

So insightful and thorough. I look forward to every episode.

Great podcast, yet JT Rogers is far from the only playwright setting their work against the grand scale of world events. He frames his work differently but there are many - Lynn Nottage, Rajiv Joseph, Lee Blessing, Winter Miller, Mona Mansour, Stefanie Zadravec, Mia Chung

Awesome podcast, easy to understand for those who aren't international relations experts. Having two (so far) interviews with prime ministers of foreign nations as well as guests of different political viewpoints and backgrounds makes for less of a biased podcast than can sometimes be seen from Politico.

I had high hopes for this podcast but there are absolutley no perspectives from the left. The Chris Murphy episode was especially cringeworthy and a perfect example of what's wrong with this podcast. Murphy claims Obama just didn't have the tools to do good things and that forced him to..you know..drone weddings.

I listen to this podcast religiously. This long-term view was missing in modern political reportage. Susan is absolutely brilliant.

I learn something interesting every time I listen.

While i am crazy addicted to listening to the news these days to make sure we are still intact, I slow down and go deeper easily with Susan and her guests who are always thoughtful, highly experienced in whatever their area and also easy ot understand. I am ridiculously uninformed about world affairs but Susan and her guests give just enough background so i can keep up. Thank goodness for people like Susan doing these fabulous podcasts and keeping us sane and informed. Fabulous episode today on "Oslo" for a change of pace.

Great guests, insightful, and relevant. Overall one of the best political podcasts.

Excellent companion to The Economist Radio podcast (which I thought was incomparable) - Susan's perfectly poised and well mannered style together with such A-list guests makes this podcast a delight (and helps to fill in the gaps since Diane Rehms Friday International Hour went off air)

I'm impressed with the quality of this podcast. Susan Glasser is a thoughtful, well informed interviewer who manages to uncover details about today's news that would otherwise go unnoticed.

However, Condalezza Rice episode is amazing. I have a new respect for Condi. I feel like Susan Glasser was a bit out of her league on that interview, but she was respectful to a difference of opinion. These days, that is commendable.

Excellent host and discussion!

Ms. Glasser, apart from being a skilled and quick thinking journalist, has all the reputation and background of an experience that has and allows her to get in touch with the stories and opinions of some of the most influential people in the world. At times of such a political uncertainty, her insights are more valuable than ever.

Great episode with Chris Murphy.

I'm so impressed with the quality of Susan's interview. It felt more like a conversation. A well-informed and nuanced and grown-up conversation. Sort of like a Terry Gross of politics. I'm looking forward to checking out the previous interviews as well. This kind of human dialog is so important to the healing our country is in such need of.
