  • Good & Entertaining Show

    Enjoy the show, it’s insightful and stuff you won’t hear almost anywhere else. Host is great and keeps conversations on point and humorous. The only problem is the ads; they will come on in the middle of someone’s sentence. Other than that five stars!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Rex Jones #1407
Q: What is your assessment of where things stand now compared to the earlier era under Trump?
The current landscape shows a shift toward a more fractured political environment with an entrenched uniparty, but there is potential for new, independent voices to emerge that push back against war spending and elite consensus.
Michael Every #1408
Q: How do you see the US moving its military footprint in the Middle East, if at all?
The guest suggests a smaller footprint with more burden sharing in Europe, and a continued, albeit reshaped, US presence in the Middle East to prevent Iran from consolidating regional power, while exploring strategic realignments.
Michael Every #1408
Q: What has changed in the last 12 days in your view regarding the Middle East dynamics?
The guest stresses that 'ceasefire' is not a precise term, highlighting ongoing provocative actions and negotiations; he notes the evolving pattern of violence and political maneuvering that makes the situation dynamic and not merely a pause in hostilities.
Trita Parsi #1406
Q: Six months from now, where is this at in your view if there is no deal?
Without a deal, the situation could escalate toward kinetic confrontation or a cold semi-cold war, with heightened risks around oil infrastructure and increased regional instability, potentially pushing both sides toward more aggressive postures.
Trita Parsi #1406
Q: What do you think the future of Israel is if it continues to expand the occupation and acts with impunity?
If Israel continues expansion and militarization, the future looks less sustainable, with increasing regional pushback and a possible realignment of regional power dynamics that could limit its strategic advantages over time.
