Each month "America Abroad" takes you on an hour-long audio journey deep inside an international news story. Field reports from around the globe give voice to those living in the middle of the critical issues of the day, and historical segments featuring archival audio and discussions with key policy makers provide crucial context. Co-anchors Ray Suarez and Katherine Lanpher deliver this unique mix of past and present to give listeners the whole story of what’s happening in the world and what it all means. The show is produced by America Abroad Media.
