    Excellent
    I’ve enjoyed these ever since they’d began, and CSIS has only made them better. CSIS has met the TL;DR crowd halfway and now provides valuable readings from white papers, which I truly appreciate. I have to acknowledge that I find the 2 minute and 47 seconds ones to be unfortunately useless, but they’ve really started to give you a lot more. Eleven Labs seems to be the enabler who we have to thank; and this is truly wonderful. Bonus thought: This podcast convinces me that I would love an International Security Program / Defense podcast from CSIS, a lot.
