'The Foreign Desk' is an award-winning show covering big global news stories in a bright and breezy style.
According to its host, the Australian journalist Andrew Mueller, what sets The Foreign Desk apart is a guiding principle of actually speaking to at least one person from the country they're talking about. As Andrew says, "It shouldn't be unusual, but it is".
We play some of a recent primer on the Trump-Kim summit in Singapore called 'Do We Still Need International Summits?': it's a good example of the show's signature style, and also told me all I needed to know about what happened at the summit itself, and the past and the future of these carefully choreographed pieces of political stagecraft.
