In Modern Ruhles, NBC News correspondent and MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle brings her characteristic curiosity, empathy and insight to some of today's thorniest, most complex conversations.
Whether it's a discussion about privilege, political correctness, the limitations of feminism or the possibilities for a non-toxic masculinity, Stephanie Ruhle comes to the table with intelligence, unflinching honesty, and a genuine willingness to listen, probe and reflect. In Modern Ruhles, these topics aren't always comfortable, but they are always compelling.
In a culture increasingly prone to siloed, separated cultural realities-a distance that most of today's media only reinforces-Modern Ruhles shows it's not only possible to have a good faith conversation with people you may not agree with, but somewhere along the way, you might just change your mind.
In each episode, host Stephanie Ruhle invites a small handful of carefully chosen guests to join her in a candid, authentic conversation. She approaches each of them one on one, and it's the unguarded moments they share that make this show unique. Juxtaposing a female CEO who isn't always comfortable calling herself a feminist with a smart, self-aware male comedian who's questioning just what masculinity means in the post-#metoo moment makes for some fascinating listening. Add to that an emotional moment between Stephanie and her mother, and this series becomes something unexpected, thoughtful, and at times, even poignant.
