The World with Richard Engel and Yalda Hakim

The World with Richard Engel and Yalda Hakim - Podcasts with two or three presenters sharing their insights are all the rage at the moment, and this new podcast on global affairs is a welcome addition. It brings together Yalda Hakim, lead World News presenter for Sky News in the UK, alongside Richard Engel, who is Chief Foreign Correspondent for NBC News in the US. 

Both NBC and Sky News now have the same owners, so a collaboration between them makes sense. This series unpacks and analyses a world event such as the ongoing conflict in the Middle East or the upcoming US Election, whilst also highlighting the implications elsewhere.
