- Another massive failure
The idea that a guest would claim that the Trump Adminstration would think that defeating Iran would be easy, is beyond stupid. The moderator as usual did not push back on such stupidity. If you want a podcast that seriously discusses foreign policy, this program is not for you. It is this is one of the dumbest, most juvenile podcasts available. Do not waste your time.

This is the worst podcast on foreign affairs available. Most junior high school students know more than the featured “experts”. The moderator is the absolute worst.
Apple Podcasts1Jim from Silicon ValleyUnited States5 months ago - World opinion of the US has become more antithetical than your interview indicates
I was born in UK, live in Australia (as a citizen) and was reconciled to living within America’s subtle sphere of influence.

If Australian opinion is becoming more favourable to a greater distance from the US, then other countries are likely to ... more

Colby is one of the smartest guests who have been on the program over the years. With respect to NATO, Agarwal is wrong as usual. 1) the Europeans have absolutely failed to convince the American public that NATO is worth saving or that a single U.S. soldier should die for Slovenia, Greece, Spain etc. 2) the bigger question on an invocation of Article 5 is whether European countries would come to the defense of other European countries if war broke out and if so, with what? Strongly worded lette... more
Apple Podcasts1Jim from Silicon ValleyUnited States7 months ago - Typical FPM Stupidity
I have listened to this podcast for a number of years and it never ceases to disappoint me. It is hard to stomach the stupidity of this podcast. In this episode, Ian Brenner who has always been a lightweight and has an abysmal track record just spouted nonsense. I do not mind people like Bremmer spouting his nonsense but I cannot stomach no pushback or hard questioning by the moderator. There are many issues which lend themselves to serious nuanced discussion. However, a high school civics class... more
