PODCAST: America’s Search for Security with Sean Kay

Obama-Beer

Yesterday, Ryan Evans sat down with Sean Kay over a couple beers at the Jefferson Hotel’s wonderful Quill Bar to discuss America’s foreign policy trajectory and Sean’s new book, America’s Search for Security: The Triumph of Idealism and the Return of Realism.  This wide-ranging conversation covered every topic a foreign policy wonk could dream of: Eisenhower, Nixon, Reagan, the Cold War, NATO, Russia, President Obama, Ukraine, the Asia Pivot, the Middle East, and more. Sean has insightful points to offer on all of these topics and more based on his perspective as a scholar of foreign relations and still recovering government adviser.
