All Encompassing, the McLarty Associates podcast

We sit down with former US Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz to discuss his current research agenda, the role of innovation in tackling climate change, his plans for a “Green Real Deal,” the fate of the JCPOA, and what first got him interested in physics way back when.

We sit down with Washington Post deputy editorial page editor Ruth Marcus to discuss her new book, Supreme Ambition: Brett Kavanaugh and the Conservative Takeover. We delve into the nitty gritty of how Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to the US Supreme Court, and more broadly, what has changed (for better or worse) in Washington since Ruth first joined the Post in 1986.

We sit down with author Paul Richter to discuss his new book, The Ambassadors, which profiles four “expeditionary” ambassadors – Ryan Crocker, Robert Ford, Chris Stevens, and Anne Patterson – as they serve in some of the most difficult posts in the greater-Middle East. Later, they’re joined by Ambassador Anne Patterson herself to delve deeper into her experiences outlined in the book and the current state of our diplomatic corps.

We sit down with Admiral James Stavridis to talk about his new book, Sailing True North, and the distinction between leadership and character. He also discusses major global hot spots, staying optimistic in "the breathlessness of this 24-hour news cycle," and the Century of Women.

Kellie Meiman Hock and Tami Overby sit down to talk all things trade. From tariffs to domestic political winds to trade deals happening all around the world – these trade extraordinaires dive into the weeds and break down the state of global trade, as well as the personal stories and backgrounds they bring to the negotiating table.

We sit down with former White House Chief of Staff and McLarty Associates Chairman Mack McLarty to discuss his lessons learned from government, business, and a place called Hope, Arkansas.
