Is the word "featuring" appropriate in the context? Or should I just use "with" instead?

Both are usable, however
Since you're describing a regular activity, I prefer "with." I'd use "featuring" if you had someone special coming in and you wanted to highlight his/her participation.

featuring one moderator and one speaker;
It is held regularly; or example, every two months.
This is how I would rewrite these sentences.
By combining the moderator and the speaker with the conjunction "and," you now are featuring both.
Mike :)

I just had to offer something which I think is a bit more compact! Apologies (of sorts!) to those who have already answered well.
Example sentence:
"It is an off-air program, held once every two months, featuring a moderator and a speaker, discussing the issue of AML."
Something went wrong...
