Inside Europe

"Expertly produced, Inside Europe is an excellent, hourlong weekly review that manages to strike a balance between accessibility and depth, thanks to a team of seasoned correspondents spread across Europe. It offers journalistic excellence accompanied by groovy music." (Mace Magazine)

You can listen and subscribe to Inside Europe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Inside Europe is also broadcast on radio stations around the world. 

Over three decades broadcasting from the heart of Europe

A veteran of the European broadcasting landscape, Inside Europe has been covering European affairs for over three decades. Our correspondents were there when the Berlin Wall fell, when the Balkans wars broke out and when Britain voted to leave the European Union.

Now the continent is changing again, and Inside Europe is rising to the challenge. Every Thursday, we bring you a combination of expert analysis and on-the-ground reporting, investigating the issues shaping the headlines and throwing new light on lesser known aspects of life in the various countries of Europe.

Editor's picks

To get a feel for how we respond to major events as they happen, we recommend listening to our broadcasts from February 24, 2022, the day Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, or from February 9, 2023, as our correspondents reacted to the devastating earthquakes in Turkey.

Some of our favorite interviews included the British human rights lawyer Philippe Sands, the Ukrainian literary scholar Tetyana Ogarkova and the German video artist Mario Pfeiffer.

And for something entirely different, we recommend our themed specials: Europe on the Move and Women of Europe.
