The first World Affairs Council broadcast aired in October 1947. Back then, it was called “World Affairs are Your Affairs”. Guests on the show included Gen. Dwight Eisenhower (July ’49) and Vice President Alben Barkeley (October ’49). The show ran continuously for 23 years. Today’s World Affairs Council broadcast, called “It’s Your World,” brings some of the brightest minds to the air. It’s Your World captures leading voices in politics, business, academia, media and art in candid discussions on issues concerning the world today.
