Asshole Culture: The Discussion Sep 27, 2018

Show notes

There are assholes everywhere you look these days, especially in positions of power. The result is high assholery in our policies and our political debates which, frankly, is not only not good for us but it’s kind of hard to take. When do we finally call an asshole an asshole and make sure the arc of history bends away from them. Far away. On this episode of Deep State Radio Ed Luce of the Financial Times, Rosa Brooks of Georgetown University and David Rothkopf of an undisclosed location join in and look for answers…or just a tiny hint of sanity. Tune in!

Enough About My Solipsism, What Do You Think of My Solipsism? Sep 25, 2018

Show notes

We have the most solipsistic president in American history offering up the most solipsistic foreign policy ever at a time when the me-me-me generation are busy taking selfies and other pols the planet over are trying to play that self-centeredness to their advantage. Have we reached Peak Solipsism? And what does that mean for the international system. We discuss in honor of and in the context of this week’s meeting of the UN General Assembly in New York City with David Rothkopf in New York, Ambassador Nicholas Burns in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Rosa Brooks in Washington, DC and Kori Schake in London, England.

The Thing Most Foreign to US Foreign Policy is Anything Resembling a Policy Sep 20, 2018

Show notes

With a couple of recent good articles in The Atlantic, leading thinkers like Peter Beinart and Thomas Wright have begun to ask the critical question: "What's next for US foreign policy?" Our experts Ed Luce of the Financial Times, David Sanger of the New York Times and Rosa Brooks of Georgetown University go a step further and start with why we haven't really be able to zero in on a consensus on such policy since the end of the Cold War and then seek to frame some of the big questions we need to be asking in light of the big changes taking place all around us. It's an important discussion. Join us. Also: Update on North Korea. Why can't you get a good bagel in Washington? And...the launch of the Deep State Radio Network website!!!!

What Cocktail Goes Best with Armageddon? Sep 18, 2018

Show notes

It's that time of day. The sun is setting. You're a little parched. Maybe more than a little due to the fireball on the horizon. What's just the right cocktail for the moment? On this episode of Deep State Radio we speak with nuclear weapons specialist and amateur bartender Jeffrey Lewis about his new book "The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks on the United States." We discuss the current state of affairs with North Korea (good for Kim, bad for Trump...oh, and all the rest of us too) and where it may lead. And of course, just what is the right thing to drink when you're offering up your very last toast of the day. Of any day. Tune in!

Know-Nothings, Do-Nothings, Mugwumps and Nerds, Oh My! Sep 13, 2018

Show notes

The release of Bob Woodward's book "Fear" and the recent anonymous oped in the New York Times claiming to be by a senior official who is mounting the resistance to Trump from within the administration raise important questions about what is the best way to stop the threat posed by an unfit president. Our panel, Rosa Brooks of Georgetown, Mieke Eoyang of Third Way and Kori Schake of IISS offer an examination of what's right, what works and whether the two are in any way related. Join us!

Is That Thing Under John Bolton's Nose a Bugbear? Sep 11, 2018

Show notes

Brick by brick the Trump team is not building a wall, it's dismantling the international order. The latest move--an attack on the International Criminal Court by National Security Advisor John Bolton. Should you care? Isn't this just an inside baseball attack on some other acronym that probably doesn't work that well to begin with? Or is it a signal of something more, something bigger, maybe even a watershed in international history? To answer the question we hear from IISS's Kori Schake, Georgetown University's Rosa Brooks and Third Way's Mieke Eoyang. Tune in for all that...and much more about Israel, Afghanistan, America, and bugbears.

"Forget it, Jake...it's Crazytown" (Super Hair-on-Fire Emergency Episode) Sep 06, 2018

Show notes

Every report out of the Trump White House tells the same story. Whether it's the anonymous op-ed from a "senior Trump Administration official" in the New York Times or Bob Woodward's book "Fear" or the Omarosa book or the Wolff book or countless news reports--the president's unhinged, the people around him don't trust him, and some of them have decided to just by-pass the president and govern on their own, elections be damned. Trump blames the Deep State. But we know better! On this emergency episode Rosa "Anonymous" Brooks, David "Anonymous" Sanger and Ed "Anonymous" Luce join us for the kind of fresh, terrifying analysis you can't get anywhere else and shouldn't try at home. Tune in!

Crazytown Diaries, Part II: The Chaos at Home Begets Chaos Abroad Sep 06, 2018

Show notes

The White House is a shambles. The president is an object of ridicule among his closest aides. The Congress is looking the other way seeming to want to rush a Supreme Court nominee into office before the President is himself hustled before a judge. But that's not the worst of it. Dysfunction in Washington leads to big problems worldwide. This week, our panel including commentator and analyst Rula Jebreal, Georgetown Law School's Rosa Brooks and the Financial Times' Ed Luce consider the latest in DC and one of the places where Trump policies are making a bad situation much much worse--the Middle East. Tune in!

Crazytown: From a Nation of Laws to One of Pathologies Sep 04, 2018

Show notes

In a brilliant bit of turnabout, John McCain's last act was to use his own funeral to bury Donald Trump. By excluding him from the ceremonies and featuring leaders of both parties extolling values and virtues alien to Trump, McCain made an eloquent point. But will it have any lasting impact? Within just a couple of days the President was back Tweeting, his Supreme Court nominee was being rammed into office and a new book by Bob Woodward was dominating the headlines with new revelations of the president's unfitness to serve. Join our panelists David Frum of the Atlantic, author of Trumpocracy, Rosa Brooks of Georgetown University School of Law and Ed Luce of the Financial Times as they discuss a tumultuous few days in the nation's capital. Tune in!
