The End

We're wrapping up the re-runs with this episode on International Agreements. Which treaties has the U.S. signed? Which haven't they? How are international agreements enforced? Listen and find out!

Hi all, I wanted to give an update on the status of the show. Thanks for all of your support!

We're re-running this episode because it's probably my most candid conversation on my tour in Israel- including all the things I *didn't* say during the normal season. Enjoy!

Okay, I realized after releasing this episode that it prbably should have been two... This was a particularrly dense explainer episode, but global political economy is important enough to warrant it. We cover exchange rates, monetary vs. fiscal policy, and much more! Iff you didn't listen the first time, it's worth trying again this go-around!

This is a lighter-hearted epsiode, all about the experience of traveling as a diplomat! One thing I really miss about being a diplomat was the freedom and ease of traveling with a diplomatic passport. I also share a few of my own travel tips and tricks. Enjoy!

I picked this episode to re-release because I think the complexity of our living arrangments in a war zone were a core part of the experience of working in Afghanistan. I think it's worth asking if we are safe, just because we're "secure". Enjoy!

This week's re-run is from the recaps of the Netflix series "the Diplomat". I go through what they right and wrong in the series, and give additional insight from my experience as a diplomat. If you haven't listened to the series, check it out. Enjoy!

Welsome to an epsiode from season two, all about my tour at the U.S. Embassy in Israel from 2016-2018. I wanted to revisit this episode becuase I think many people are suddenly thrust into management roles with no real warning or training. That was exactly my experience as the deputy spokesperson, responsible not only for my own work, but for that of my team. It was a high-octane job, with real-life impact. Hoepfully you enjoy the episode!

I included this episode in the list because it is my favorite in the line of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict explainers. The global nuclear order is often invisible in daily life, but in this conflict it is front and center, even if no one says so. Hopefully you also enjoy it!

I really enjoyed this interview with Chuck Park, former diplomat. He and I briefly worked together at the Consulate in Ciudad Juarez, and he famously left the Foreign Service in protest of the Trump Administration and it’s policies. With the current election season raging, this seemed like a good time to revisit the episode. Enjoy!
