  • Re-Run: Season 2 Lookback
    Oct 9 2024

    We're re-running this episode because it's probably my most candid conversation on my tour in Israel- including all the things I *didn't* say during the normal season. Enjoy!

  • Re-Run: Getting to the Money (Global Political Economy)
    Oct 2 2024

    Okay, I realized after releasing this episode that it prbably should have been two... This was a particularrly dense explainer episode, but global political economy is important enough to warrant it. We cover exchange rates, monetary vs. fiscal policy, and much more! Iff you didn't listen the first time, it's worth trying again this go-around!

  • Re-Run: Diplomatic Travel
    Sep 25 2024

    This is a lighter-hearted epsiode, all about the experience of traveling as a diplomat! One thing I really miss about being a diplomat was the freedom and ease of traveling with a diplomatic passport. I also share a few of my own travel tips and tricks. Enjoy!

  • Re-Run: Safe or Secure
    Sep 18 2024

    I picked this episode to re-release because I think the complexity of our living arrangments in a war zone were a core part of the experience of working in Afghanistan. I think it's worth asking if we are safe, just because we're "secure". Enjoy!

  • Re-Run: Somehow I Managed
    Aug 28 2024

    Welsome to an epsiode from season two, all about my tour at the U.S. Embassy in Israel from 2016-2018. I wanted to revisit this episode becuase I think many people are suddenly thrust into management roles with no real warning or training. That was exactly my experience as the deputy spokesperson, responsible not only for my own work, but for that of my team. It was a high-octane job, with real-life impact. Hoepfully you enjoy the episode!
