    The Monocle 24: The Globalist podcast is like hanging out with the really smart and cool people who typically have no time for someone like me. The hosts, Georgina Godwin and Emma Nelson, always sound like they're smiling and their dynamic is infectious. Each episode is packed with insightful analysis and in-depth conversations that cover a wide range of topics, from current world events to business and the arts.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is its diverse range of guests and subjects covered. The hosts bring on experts from various fields, providing different perspectives and adding depth to the discussions. Whether it's a political analyst discussing global politics or an artist talking about their latest work, there's always something interesting to learn from each episode.

    Another great aspect of The Globalist is its international perspective. Recorded in London and featuring contributors from around the world, the podcast offers a refreshing take on global affairs. It goes beyond just reporting on headlines, delving into the underlying issues and context that shape current events. This makes it a valuable source for understanding global trends and developments.

    While there are many positive aspects to this podcast, one potential drawback is its leaning towards a liberal, progressive view. This may not appeal to all listeners who prefer more balanced or conservative viewpoints. However, even if you don't share the same political ideology as the hosts, it's still worth listening for their well-informed analysis and well-rounded discussions.

    In conclusion, The Monocle 24: The Globalist podcast is a well-produced show that provides an international perspective on current world events, business, and the arts. It stands out from other news outlets by offering insightful analysis in an educated and thoughtful manner. Despite its liberal leaning, it remains informative and engaging for listeners who want to stay informed about important global issues. Overall, it's definitely worth investing your time in this podcast if you're looking for a general news show with a unique perspective.
