Christiane Amanpour Presents: The Ex Files

by Global

World-renowned journalist Christiane Amanpour and ex-husband Jamie Rubin, a former US State Department official, unpack today’s defining global crises. Drawing on decades of insider experience in global affairs, reporting from conflict zones, and grilling world leaders, they explain how we ended up where we are – and where we might be going. Forget about a new world order – right now, there’s no world order. From Trump and Putin to the war in Ukraine, China’s global rise, and chaos in the Middle East, geopolitics has never been more dangerous or unpredictable. The Ex Files provides unparalleled insight into the issues keeping world leaders, and the rest of us, awake at night. With searing honesty, jaw-dropping stories, and candid humour, this is the foreign policy podcast for our fractured age. They’re no longer married, but when it comes to current affairs, Christiane and Jamie still finish each other’s sentences. Christiane Amanpour Presents: The Ex Files is a Global production, available every Tuesday and Thursday on Global Player, YouTube or wherever you get your shows.

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I have always appreciated Christiane. I didn’t know Jamie Rubin though until I started listening to this podcast. I am really enjoying their conversations. They are informative and fun. Another reviewer mentioned this, but Christiane’s laugh is great and I love hearing it. She shows a fun side that I never noticed on TV before. Thank you!

Christiane has done such exceptional reporting over the years, I had to tune in. I am not disappointed. Great to hear an in depth analysis

So refreshing to hear intelligent, in-depth, thoughtful exchanges between two exceptionally qualified persons…who also model how to engage in not only civil but cordial discourse (and if you can pull that off as a divorced couple, you’ve got the world by the tail). As a journalist, I can say that my mind and heart needed this podcast. Amid the shout-shows that pass for political commentary, this podcast reminds us of what real dialogue and analysis look and sound like. The bar has once again be raised by the one and only Amanpour; let’s strive to follow. Kudos!

Wow. The combination of the co-hosts is superb. Their knowledge, experience, and reasoning makes this podcast a must listen. Their Gaza episode gives background that is so insightful. I’m recommending this podcast to all of my intellectual friends!
