MSNBC on Wednesday launched a weekly podcast hosted by Chuck Rosenberg, a former U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia and the Southern District of Texas, and a former acting head of the Drug Enforcement Administration. Called “The Oath with Chuck Rosenberg,” the podcast will feature Rosenberg having “unfiltered conversations” with former high-ranking U.S. government officials, according to an MSNBC news release.

Radzinschi/ALMSome of the early guests on Rosenberg's podcast include Preet Bharara, a former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York; James Comey Jr., the former FBI director; Andrew McCabe, a former deputy director at the FBI; Lisa Monaco, a former U.S. Homeland Security adviser; and James Baker III, the former White House chief of staff for two presidents, a former U.S. secretary of state and a former U.S. secretary of the Treasury, according to MSNBC.
The network said that Rosenberg's discussions with ex-officials will “explore what drew these leaders to public service, how they approached their challenging jobs, the dilemmas they encountered, their successes and failures, and what keeps them up at night.”
It added that the first podcast episodes are now available via MSNBC's website, and that “The Oath” is its newest podcast.
Rosenberg is currently an MSNBC legal analyst and is a senior counsel in Crowell & Moring's Washington, D.C. office. According to Wikipedia, he formerly held numerous Department of Justice positions, including as trial attorney for the Tax Division's Criminal Enforcement Section (1990-94), assistant U.S. attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia (1994-2000), counsel to the director of the FBI (2002-03), counselor to the attorney general (2003-04), and chief of staff to the deputy attorney general (2004-05).
He also worked previously in private practice as counsel at Hunton & Williams (2000-02), and as a partner at Hogan Lovells (2008-13), Wikipedia noted.
He resigned from the Trump administration in August 2017, stepping down as acting DEA head.
