The Global Story

BBC World Service

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 U.S., 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. Launching in September, this new daily podcast from the BBC tackles the news at this exact intersection: where the world and America meet. With one host in DC, one host 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. The Global Story. Where the world and America meet.
