    Attention world affairs enthusiasts! The podcast is returning this March, and we'll explore the newsworthy world of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the judicial body of the United Nations.

  • Senegal - February 11, 2024
    Feb 11 2024

    Kaleigh did not tell Alex, but season 6 is here! In Episode 1, they discuss the developing situation in Senegal's election that was unfolding even as they recorded. Once regarded as a beacon of democratic stability in West Africa, Senegal faces uncertainty as the incumbent president cancelled the February election. Pushing back the election raises growing concerns about the transition of power and the stability of democracy in the region. Meanwhile, Kaleigh delves into UNRWA and its funding, while Alex shares recent space news highlighting the human role in snowpack loss.
