    Trade is Leaving the Planet Aug 29, 2024
    Show notes

    David Thomas, Executive Director of ASU's Milo Space Science Institute, describes the global stability benefits of providing countries of the world access to space through education (what's it like to mine ice water on the shadow region of the moon?) and ridesharing (yes, ridesharing) to space. Prada is making space suits and Hilton is designing crew quarters. Milo fosters global opportunity to join the space economy and in so doing, fosters the creation of values-based laws and policies. Prepare to be inspired.

    Attempted Takeover of Voice of America Aug 23, 2024
    Show notes

    Steve Herman, author of Behind the White House Curtain, is back to tell the tale of the time the Trump administration tried to seize editorial control of the Voice of America and turn it into a propaganda agency. Why is it in our interests as Americans for VOA to remain an independent, credible source worldwide, even covering negative events in the US? What are the risks to those, like Steve, who resisted the takeover? See also a review of his book in June's Foreign Service Journal.

    This Steal Was For Real: Venezuela Aug 15, 2024
    Show notes

    The Maduro regime told breathtaking lies about voting tallies, but the opposition has proof. What are diplomats doing to promote a democratic outcome? Keith Mines, Vice President of the Latin America Program at the US Institute for Peace, explores the options and shares first-hand tales of similar instances in the region. Over seven million Venezuelans have fled poverty and mass misery already. What will happen if no one can help?

    Behind the White House Curtain Aug 08, 2024
    Show notes

    Journalist and FSO (you read that correctly!) Steve Herman's new book Behind the White House Curtain delves into the balance between, as Pete says, being the pitcher and the umpire at the same time. Especially during the Trump White House, what was it like to be "the enemy of the people"? Trump's priority was to feed his base red meat, was he really out of control? Join us to hear Steve talk about his experience in this extraordinary dual role.

    Rivalry on Earth, Rivalry in Space Aug 01, 2024
    Show notes

    General Brook Leonard is back to focus on China as our competitor in space. What is rivalry in space – economic, military, both? And what can we learn from China's holistic approach to space? The technological environment is rapidly changing and the stakes are very high. We are not the leader. How does diplomacy address this?

    Space Diplomacy Jul 25, 2024
    Show notes

    Major General Brook Leonard joins us to parse "coopetition" in the 3rd space age. With vital interests ranging from movement of money to food security, space technology is moving faster than rules and norms. What are the red lines? There is no geographic separation in space as on earth, and no way to be sure what a communications satellite in space is actually doing. Will global powers follow the law of the jungle or establish rules of the road?

    NATO Summit: Too Hot, Too Cold or Just Right? Jul 18, 2024
    Show notes

    NATO celebrated its 75th year anniversary last week. It doubled down on Ukraine support and the Alliance now sees Itself as the bulwark against growing anti-democratic regimes. Ambassador Kurt Volker, a Trump appointee, provides insight into what his former boss might do if re-elected.

    Cognitive Warfare Jul 11, 2024
    Show notes

    Tricks, tricks, tricks. General Robert Schmidle, expert in cognitive warfare, helps us understand that although this has gone on for centuries, what's different today is the scope and scale. How do you fight it? Bonus question: What famous statesman said, "a lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on"?

    More Travels With Pete – Huarani Part 2 Jul 04, 2024
    Show notes

    Recently the indigenous of the Amazon have been gifted with Starlink, but to what effect? Years ago, Pete visited a similar community, botched up a boar hunt, drank the mystery drink chicha, and received upon his departure a marriage proposal, ambiguously addressed either to himself one of the other (finer?) young gringos. Which is worse, Pete or the Internet? Give us your thoughts on whether Starlink is a gift or curse for the Marubo via our socials or via voicemail on our website.

    Starlink in the Amazon? Uh-oh. Jun 27, 2024
    Show notes

    Years ago, Pete visited the Amazon and made friends with some very remotely located people. His visit raised questions: Did he do the right thing? Now others, far more remote, have been visited by Elon Musk's Starlink – by their own request! With an updated perspective, we repost this gem from our early days recording American Diplomat. First of two in a series. Give us your thoughts on whether Starlink is a gift or curse for the Marubo people via our socials or via voicemail on our website. Enjoy!
