The Global Story: Where the world meets America
The world order is shifting by the day — old alliances are fraying, autocrats are on the rise, and global trade is in turmoil. A lot of this turbulence can be traced back to decisions made in the US, but America isn’t just a cause of upheaval abroad—it’s also a symptom of the same forces disrupting things across the world.
That’s where The Global Story comes in. From September 2025, this daily podcast from the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ tackles the news at this exact intersection: where the world and America meet.
With one host (Asma Khalid, former NPR White House correspondent) in DC, one host (Tristan Redman, former Al Jazeera international correspondent) in London, and the backing of the best international newsroom in the world, this podcast tells the intertwined story of America and the world – how each shapes the other, daily.
