About the episode

The Trump administration is sending contradictory messages about US involvement in Iran, with the president alternating between suggesting a possible end to Middle East conflict and threatening severe consequences if Iran blocks oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has appointed the deceased Ayatollah's son as the next supreme leader, maintaining the regime's hardline stance. The situation's outcome may be influenced by oil market pressures and rising petrol prices affecting American consumers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
