    Leaving the Syrian Civil War

    We’re going to get out of the Syrian war the same way we got in: without a strategy to do so. I’ve said before that the president’s refusal to engage in a policy process is troublesome in the extreme. Structured policy processes serve to add discipline to a decision-making process, to surface unintended consequences, and to ensure that whatever decisions are made for the nation are thoroughly vetted and thought-through. … Read More

Jackson is a novelist, playwright, visual artist, and songwriter. His second novel Destroy All Monsters: The … Read More

    Why We Dream with Alice Robb

    Air Dates: February 26 – March 3, 2019 Poets, rock stars, authors—and even we mere mortals—all share a nightly sojourn—a temporary stay–in the land of dreams.

    The First Campaign Narrative of 2020

    The 2020 campaign is fully under-way. Democrats and even a few Republicans have announced campaigns and exploratory committees, and campaign narratives are beginning to emerge. Campaign narratives are central to how candidates engage with the public. They provide a framework for understanding developments because the public, once having internalized a narrative, can sort facts and new developments on their own. The narratives that emerge around campaigns are driven by the … Read More

    The life of Rocky Marciano with Mike Stanton

    Air Dates: February 19-24, 2019 There are not a lot of examples of perfection in life—except in the world of sports.

Mike Stanton recounts the life of Rocky Marciano, who finished his heavyweight championship career with a perfect 49 … Read More

    Health in the LGBTQ Community with Jason Rafferty

    Air Dates: February 12-17, 2019 Recently, the Trump administration proposed defining gender as an individual’s assigned sex at birth. But the medical community—including Dr. Jason Rafferty—tells us gender is not so simply expressed. Rafferty graduated from Harvard Medical School and obtained post-graduate training through the Triple Board Residency at Brown University. He has additional Masters’ degrees from Harvard University in public health concentrating on Maternal and Child Health, and education … Read More

    Untold Stories of Christianity with Karen King

    Air Dates: February 5-10, 2019 Even for the devout, questions about the earliest history of Christianity can seem lost behind a shroud of history and official church teachings.
