Podcasts about global alliances

In this high-impact broadcast, the hosts dissect Donald Trump's bold international moves as he attempts to reassert America's dominance on the global stage. From a trillion-dollar investment deal with Saudi Arabia to confronting the fallout from Biden's foreign policy, the conversation lays bare the stakes of U.S. diplomacy and economic survival. The show explores the dramatic shift in global alliances, the looming threat of BRICS nations undermining the U.S. dollar, and Trump's controversial negotiations with questionable Middle Eastern actors to protect American interests. Meanwhile, at home, the dialogue turns sharply toward domestic politics, highlighting rising public confidence in Trump, Democratic Party infighting, and a cultural shift toward praising American values. With sharp critiques of both parties and an unflinching look at geopolitical realignment, this episode offers an eye-opening narrative of economic necessity, strategic compromise, and the fight to keep America leading—not lagging—in a rapidly changing world.

In this explosive breakdown, the speaker unpacks Donald Trump's high-stakes visit to Saudi Arabia, highlighting its strategic aim to counter China's influence in AI, secure vital energy alliances, and stabilize the U.S. dollar. The segment dives into the untold history of U.S.-Saudi relations, Biden's controversial foreign policy moves, and the deeper motives behind Trump's support for South African refugees. It also exposes a long-standing immigration “grand bargain” between political elites and how Trump's new approach could disrupt it. A must-watch for those tracking geopolitics, AI dominance, and the future of America's immigration policy.

- Trump's historic trip to Saudi Arabia. - Jake Tapper participating in the Biden coverup to just turn around and write a book about it. - Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson's removal from MLB's ineligible list. - Don Lemon claims aiding the South African refugees is racist.

Donald Trump's return to the White House has strained his country's alliances with Canada and the EU, while drawing Russia closer. As G7 foreign ministers meet in Quebec, guest host Mark Kelley talks to Vice-President of the European Commission Kaja Kallas about navigating this shifting world order.

Dear friends, As of March 1, 2025, "Narativ with Zev Shalev" video and audio podcasts now premiere exclusively at Narativ.org or at Patreon.com/narativ, and most are free with no ads. Ad-supported podcasts are posted here a week or two after their premiere. Sign up to our mailing list to receive free updates, exclusive articles, and every show as it happens, ad-free.

Z Narativ's Canada edition explores how everything from politics to sports is shifting in response to Trump - and discovers a 75% increase in Americans moving to Canada.The biggest story in North American relations isn't happening at diplomatic summits or trade negotiations. It's playing out in immigration offices, polling stations, and yes – even on the ice. As Trump steers America away from its traditional NATO allies and toward Russia and China, Canada faces an unprecedented realignment. Our investigation reveals three key shifts: First, the numbers. Since Trump's November victory, Canadian immigration sites saw an eight-fold surge in U.S. traffic. But unlike the empty threats that followed his 2016 win, immigration lawyers report serious inquiries from tech workers, healthcare professionals, and LGBTQ+ families. The data backs this up: there's been a 75% increase in permanent residency invitations to U.S. residents. The Narativ with Zev Shalev is a viewer supported publication. To receive new posts and support our work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber By joining our list below. Second, Canadian politics is transforming. Former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney has emerged as a frontrunner for Liberal leadership, polling just three points behind the Conservatives. He's positioning himself as Canada's shield against Trump's America, and it's working – pulling 42% of previous NDP voters. Finally, there's the symbolism. Tomorrow's US-Canada hockey championship isn't just another game. With ticket prices rivaling the Super Bowl and three fights in the first nine seconds of their last match, it's become a proxy for deeper tensions. The implications are serious. As America shifts toward Russia and China, Canada faces critical choices about trade, security, and its role in the Western alliance. Trump's pivot isn't just redrawing diplomatic maps – it's reshaping North American society from the ground up. Our full investigation airs tonight on Narativ. Learn more about your ad choices.

There are signs of growing distrust in the alliance between Russia and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The two countries signed a “no limits” agreement around the war in Ukraine, and are moving to create a new security alliance similar to NATO. Yet the CCP seems to be concerned. Russia is playing the subordinate in the relationship, and as the two move forward, old tensions over who's in charge seem to be emerging. We'll discuss in this episode of Crossroads.

During his tenure as dean, Schizer recruited 43 new faculty members, doubled the school's annual fundraising, led a $353 million capital campaign, helped the Law School navigate the financial crisis, oversaw the construction of Jerome Greene Hall's ninth floor, significantly reduced the school's student-faculty ratio, and forged a close relationship with Columbia Business School by introducing an accelerated J.D./MBA program and establishing the Richman Center.

We also connect all these topics to today's situation in Iran, and the Iranian diaspora.Manijeh Moradian is assistant professor of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Barnard College, Columbia University.

The United States will be sending 100 to 200 troops to Taiwan, which would increase U.S. troop presence on the island nation by close to four times. While the initial increase is relatively small compared to the 20,000 U.S. troops now being stationed in Europe, the increase marks a new step in potential commitment to defend against the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Meanwhile, global alliances are now forming around the conflict in Ukraine. In this, the United States is beginning to lose global support, while the conflict and sanctions are pushing Russia and other nations closer to the CCP. In this live Q&A with Crossroads host Joshua Philipp, we'll discuss these stories and others, and answer questions from the audience. ⭕️ Stay up-to-date with Josh with the Crossroads NEWSLETTER

Why does “networking” get such a bad rap? This week's guest, Matt McRoberts, SVP of Global Alliances at Braze — one of our favorite partners at one of our favorite platforms — explores why too many of us are “fair-weather networkers,” leveraging our contacts only when we need something.

All of the above is ultimately about relationships — with customers and your professional network — and Matt is here to demonstrate how great relationships are forged and nurtured over time.Topics Discussed:How Braze is changing in the coming monthsWhat it means to be a CRMMatt's favorite Braze client success storiesProviding value to networks in good times and badKey messaging and engagement that customers and fans expect from brands
