'''''Worldview''''' was [[WBEZ]]'s weekdaily global issues talk radio show, hosted by Jerome McDonnell. The show featured long-form interviews about how race, ethnicity, gender, identity, the environment, religion, politics, and economics drive and shape the news. It also brought in experts to discuss international news from a local perspective, and draws local connections. The show heavily featured arts, activism, and social movements in Chicago.

The show had several regular series, including the Thursday "Global Activism" segment in which [[Midwestern United States|Midwesterners]] involved in international advocacy are interviewed. On Fridays, the show usually featured suggestions for global-themed events in Chicago, and film reviews from Milos Stehlik, director and founder of [[Facets Multi-Media]].

Notable guests included President [[Jimmy Carter]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/president-jimmy-carter-reflections-at-ninety/c1684e80-2722-459b-91e3-2efc9012a435|title=President Jimmy Carter: "Reflections at Ninety"|date=27 July 2015 |access-date=2020-01-15|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201040241/https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/president-jimmy-carter-reflections-at-ninety/c1684e80-2722-459b-91e3-2efc9012a435|archive-date=2017-12-01|url-status=live}}</ref> the [[14th Dalai Lama]], [[Secretary-General of the United Nations|UN Secretary-General]] [[Kofi Annan]], [[United States Secretary of State]] [[Condoleezza Rice]], Nobel Prize Winner [[Muhammad Yunus]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/nobel-laureate-muhammad-yunus-advocates-for-new-altruistic-capitalism/70f1cf1e-099e-40d9-b5b9-7a27615d2410|title=Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus Advocates for New Altruistic Capitalism|date=28 September 2017 |access-date=2020-01-15|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201080832/https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/nobel-laureate-muhammad-yunus-advocates-for-new-altruistic-capitalism/70f1cf1e-099e-40d9-b5b9-7a27615d2410|archive-date=2017-12-01|url-status=live}}</ref> [[Minister of Foreign Affairs (Canada)|Canadian Foreign Minister]] and journalist [[Chrystia Freeland]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/struggle-for-the-soul-of-the-ukrainian-orthodox-church/3f89a636-b6a6-4d99-8d87-fca1164fd629|title=Struggle for the Soul of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church|date=6 August 2008 |access-date=2020-01-15|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201034519/https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/struggle-for-the-soul-of-the-ukrainian-orthodox-church/3f89a636-b6a6-4d99-8d87-fca1164fd629|archive-date=2017-12-01|url-status=live}}</ref> Activists [[Oscar López Rivera]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/what-oscar-lopez-riveras-commutation-means-to-chicagos-puerto-rican-community/72045344-e675-4e52-825c-9b0450a059d0|title=What Oscar Lopez Rivera's Commutation Means to Chicago's Puerto Rican Community|date=19 January 2017 |access-date=2020-01-15|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201031517/https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/what-oscar-lopez-riveras-commutation-means-to-chicagos-puerto-rican-community/72045344-e675-4e52-825c-9b0450a059d0|archive-date=2017-12-01|url-status=live}}</ref> [[Dallas Goldtooth]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/days-before-keystone-oil-spill-indigenous-protesters-ejected-from-un-climate-summit-in-bonn-germany/3a451cde-8e69-40be-b06b-95f53000ba33|title=Days Before Keystone Oil Spill, Indigenous Protesters Ejected from UN Climate Summit in Bonn, Germany|date=17 November 2017 |access-date=2020-01-15|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201033628/https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/days-before-keystone-oil-spill-indigenous-protesters-ejected-from-un-climate-summit-in-bonn-germany/3a451cde-8e69-40be-b06b-95f53000ba33|archive-date=2017-12-01|url-status=live}}</ref> United States Secretary of Commerce [[Penny Pritzker]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/pritzker-us-out-in-the-cold-if-congress-rejects-transpacific-partnership/fbff75f0-7bd6-480d-8f48-3e1000f97ee7|title=Pritzker: U.S. 'Out in the Cold' if Congress Rejects Trans-Pacific Partnership|access-date=2020-01-15|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201031919/https://www.wbez.org/shows/worldview/pritzker-us-out-in-the-cold-if-congress-rejects-transpacific-partnership/fbff75f0-7bd6-480d-8f48-3e1000f97ee7|archive-date=2017-12-01|url-status=live}}</ref> Academics [[M.
