Introducing...Friction Point by Simone Ledeen

What this episode covers

The world is getting more complex. And if you're paying attention, you can feel it. But the more you hear, the harder it gets to know what's actually true. Friction Point is a geopolitics podcast hosted by Simone Ledeen, former senior U.S. defense official and intelligence officer, bridging the gap between how the world is explained and how it actually works. This show is about the forces shaping global power. No theory. No talking points. Just honest, clear-eyed analysis of how decisions are really made and why. Each episode goes deep: expert guests, real context, and the kind of clarity that helps you think more carefully, ask better questions, and understand the systems quietly shaping your world. Real stories are happening beneath the surface. This is where you find them. Follow and subscribe on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you watch or listen. This show is produced by Rainbow Creative with Executive Producer Matthew “MoJo” Jones. For inquires including sponsorships, email [email protected]  Learn more about your ad choices.
