Today, we welcome retired colonel Ray Powell and retired Foreign Service Officer Jim Carouso to discuss their new show, "Why Should We Care about the Indo-Pacific?" The show is on YouTube and multiple podcast platforms.

I bring them on to discuss their experiences in the Indo-Pacific and their new role in speaking and hosting on foreign policy. So, let's get started. 

To check out the show, here is the YouTube Link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6TMufYaMcN5pmi1Xkf_g1g

One CA is a product of the civil affairs association

and brings in people who are current or former military, diplomats, development officers, and field agents to discuss their experiences on the ground with a partner nation's people and leadership.

We aim to inspire anyone interested in working in the "last three feet" of U.S. foreign relations.
