  • Spot on!

    An excellent way to keep abreast of the politics, economics and geopolitics of Latin America, created by someone who knows the region through and through. This week’s podcast on Lula 3.0, with Natuza Nery, was spot on!

    Thank you!

Still, I would appreciate hearing from a wider range of perspectives... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Understanding Trump’s Military Buildup in Latin America
Q: Could this pressure campaign lead to a fracture in the Venezuelan armed forces?
It remains a low probability scenario, as dictators like Maduro are skilled at maintaining loyalty within the military despite discontent.
