About this episode
This episode rips the lid off a dangerously volatile moment in global politics and you’ll walk away understanding how close we may be to either a historic realignment or a massive war.
From President Trump’s risky strategy against Iran to the fragile ceasefires in Lebanon and beyond, the conversation dives deep into power plays, alliances and the brutal realities inside regimes like the IRGC. You’ll learn how geopolitical narratives are shaped, why “negotiations” may be more illusion than solution, and how ordinary people, from Iran to New York, are caught in forces far bigger than themselves.
