Join Preston and Ben as they break down the world's most pressing issues with a mix of sharp analysis, candid humor, and an occasional dose of chaos. Whether it's decoding international power plays or dissecting the latest global headlines, they cut through the noise to deliver smart, relatable conversations you actually want to listen to. Forget the monotony—this is global affairs for the rest of us.
