  • Required listening

    I listen everyday. Monocle is lifeblood. Georgina Godwin is easily the most underrated and greatest host of all time.

    Andrew Mueller is also extremely good!

    Listen. Learn. Get smarter.

  • Good but also buys the pitch

    While this podcast’s team does bring some excellent guests to cover a wide spectrum of topics, they repeat some of the political rhetoric and terminology spewed by certain segments of the political right. If the producers could fix that, The Globalist would make for a more balanced listen.

  • Subpar

    Unfortunately there is no escape from biased news reporting. I listen to get a full spectrum view of global news, but it can be challenging at times to get through. Some of the segments have blatant bias in commentary, where reporters put zero to nil effort in substantiating the premises, and just assume the audience will accept their position without question. The host does a better job of masking her leaning on events, which I appreciate
