  • Episode 33-France's (Least) Favorite: Exploring Macron's Trust Issues
    To start what seems to be an incredibly newsworthy week, Christopher rendez-vous' with France's favorite political badboy, Emmanuel Macron. With endemic corruption, radical policies, and a seeming unconcern with the French populace, Macron is starting to resemble Marine Le Pen rather than Charles de Gaulle.

  • Episode 32-A Village Parable: Establishing Legislative Action on Gun Control
    To finish another heartbreaking week in the news, Christopher discusses the ever-agonizing debate on gun control.

  • Episode 31-Death at the Dotted Line: Emphasizing Legislative Failure over Tax Reform
    To start another week, Christopher discusses the purported "death at the dotted line" with tax reform. As Republicans sign away their political futures for base satisfaction, legislative conflicts within the party, within the constituency, and within the state and local governments should dissuade the party from pursuing such a weighty bill, especially at the ever important 2018 midterm.

  • Episode 30-For All the Marbles: Appraising China's One Belt, One Road Initiative
    To celebrate a belated International Podcast Day and recovery from a lost voice, Christopher analyzes the geopolitical game of Risk that China's pursuing in its One Belt, One Road Initiative. Through an ambitious hybridization of commercial, political, and military influence, China's certainly advancing its own power agenda, but at the risk of the rest of the international community.

  • Episode 29-Dictatorial Double Vision: Examining the Syrian Conflict
    With the seasons changing, Christopher examines one of the most unfortunately permanent phenomena of geopolitics: the Syrian Conflict. With little promise as the country nears collapse, the United States possesses a humanitarian, political, and social responsibility to finish what it started and save Syria from itself.

  • Episode 28-Win, Lose, or Draw: Appraising Catalonian Secession
    After another exhausting week, Christopher discusses the incredibly perplexing and aggravating potential secession of Catalonia. This region, which embodies petulant adolescence in a geographic landscape, has an incredibly myopic perspective on the secession's potential economic, social, and political implications.
