In this episode, Preston Stewart and Ben Wheeler discuss Russia and Ukraine, North Koreans, Pakistan and the US, the US government shutdown, HTS and Syria, the Chinese military, and various geopolitical issues. They delve into Assad's recent statements, the nature of dictators, and the resurgence of the Islamic State. The conversation also touches on Turkey's ambitions in Syria, the U.S. troop presence, reflections on the Afghanistan surge, and recent developments in Ukraine, including the assassination of a Russian general and its public perception. In this conversation, the hosts discuss various geopolitical issues, starting with a light-hearted mention of a sports event before diving into Vladimir Putin's recent speech and its implications for the ongoing war in Ukraine. They explore the presence of North Korean troops in Ukraine and the cultural shock these soldiers might experience. The discussion shifts to Pakistan's missile program and its relationship with the United States, highlighting the complexities of international alliances and threats. Finally, they touch on the potential government shutdown and its implications. In this conversation, Ben and Preston discuss the impending government shutdown, the influence of Trump and Elon Musk on political dynamics, and the implications of China's military expansion and Iran's nuclear ambitions. They also reflect on personal Christmas traditions and the cultural significance of the holiday season.
Unfiltered, unpolished, and undeniably engaging, Unclassified with Preston Stewart & Ben Wheeler brings global politics, geopolitics, and international relations to life. 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.
