Hosts Giulia Donatello and Lee-Sean Huang welcome Jarrett Fuller, a designer, writer, educator, editor, and podcaster. He is an assistant professor and director of undergraduate programs in Graphic & Experience Design at North Carolina State University, director of the design studio twenty-six, and host of Scratching the Surface. He's edited or co-edited four books, and his writing has appeared in Fast Company, The Architect's Newspaper, Eye Magazine, and Design Observer. His work has won awards from Communication Arts and The Type Directors Club, and he was previously an editor at Eye on Design and a designer at Facebook, Warby Parker, and The Whitney Museum of American Art.Drawing from his new book, Graphic Designers After Graphic Design: Designer as Publisher, Researcher, Change Maker, Performer, Artist (Princeton Architectural Press), Jarrett explains why graphic design is far from dead. They explore how the field's lack of strict boundaries is its superpower, letting millennial and Gen Z designers expand into publishing, research, activism, performance, and fine art. In This Episode* Graphic designers persist. Jarrett contrasts a future where design persists without human designers with one where designers thrive by reclaiming their practice beyond commercial silos.* The "superpower" of a blurry discipline. Unlike architecture or industrial design, graphic design has always resisted definition. Jarrett argues that this is what allows the discipline to keep expanding and adapting to new cultural moments.* Designer as publisher. Jarrett discusses how designers move beyond shaping the container for someone else's text and become cultural producers when they control the content and make it public.* Social change and activism. Revisiting manifestos like First Things First, Jarrett shows how making complex political ideas visual and legible remains a fundamental form of social action.* Performance, unscripted risks, and rapid prototyping. Drawing on his interview with Silvio Lorusso, Jarrett and Lee-Sean compare design research and public presentations to stand-up and improv, favoring risk, live feedback, and mistakes over slick corporate TED Talks.* Resisting the "AI sameness trap." Reflecting on his recent Fast Company essay, Jarrett argues designers fear AI only because they've been designing for lowest-common-denominator sameness. He calls for radical experimentation and cultural difference.* Going back to the roots (graphe). Jarrett revisits the Greek root of "graphic," reminding us that graphic design is medium-agnostic and encompasses studying, writing, drawing, and giving shape to the world.* Flipping design education. Jarrett proposes redesigning design curricula to start with history, ethics, and critical theory, saving tools and software for last.

What if the most powerful skill in wealth management has nothing to do with finance — and AI can never learn it?In this episode of Insight Is Capital, host Pierre Daillie sits down with Edmund Chien, Behavioural Finance Expert and Coach at Flow Cap Advisory, whose unconventional path — from Ryerson's theatre school to a $70-million book of business — reveals why 93% of what happens in a client meeting is invisible to artificial intelligence. Edmund unpacks the 7-38-55 rule (7% words, 38% tone, 55% body language), shares unforgettable stories about reading the room under pressure, and makes a compelling case that improv comedy is the most underrated professional development tool in financial services today.Chapters0:00 — Introduction: The question advisors are getting wrong about AI 1:37 — Edmund Chien: From theatre school to a $70M book of business 4:02 — The 7-38-55 rule: Why only 7% of communication is words 7:49 — The crossed-arms client: Reading body language to save the meeting 13:22 — Always be opening: Replacing the old sales playbook 15:30 — Behavioural finance and the limbic system: Why pitching too soon backfires 19:47 — Pop culture as rapport: Speaking the language of your client's generation 27:01 — The German client story: How punctuality closed a million-dollar account 34:46 — Introverts vs. extroverts in client-facing finance 40:03 — Myers-Briggs and knowing your own strengths 43:23 — Family office and multigenerational wealth: The highest expression of behavioural finance 49:00 — Why improv training belongs in every advisor's development plan 53:35 — Final advice: Start at Second City, budget for failure, grow for life#BehaviouralFinance #WealthManagement #FinancialAdvisor #AIandFinance #ClientRelationships #EmotionalIntelligence #ImprovForBusiness #SoftSkills #BodyLanguage #HighNetWorth #FamilyOffice #FinancialServices #AdvisorLife #738Rule #InsightIsCapital #AdvisorAnalyst #SalesSkills #MindsetMatters #FinanceLeadership #HumanConnection

We have a funeral to attend: the funeral for Henry Crawford's dignity and honor. Fanny gets word of a scandal, first from Mary, and then from the newspaper. The Bertrams fall into ruin, but it works out in Fanny's favor. Plus, Julia runs off with Yates.Patron Study Questions come from Avi, Linnea, and Mari. Topics discussed include Fanny's new position in Mansfield Park, why Julia ran off with Yates, and Henry's passionate comments about Fanny post-Maria. Becca's Study Questions: Topics discussed include what the fuck Maria?, what Jane Austen is doing with Maria, why Henry disappoints us the way he does, and what genre Mansfield Park falls into. Funniest Quote: “As to Mr. Crawford, she hoped it might give him a knowledge of his own disposition, convince him that he was not capable of being steadily attached to any one woman in the world, and shame him from persisting any longer in addressing herself.”Questions moving forward: Are we ever going to hear from Henry and Maria about this? Is Tom gonna die??? What will happen with Edmund and Fanny?Who wins the chapters?

Digital Health Talks - Changemakers Focused on Fixing Healthcare
When Edmund Siy became chief information and technology officer at Bon Secours Mercy Health in May 2025, he told Becker's his opening move was cybersecurity and infrastructure, with AI to follow. Plenty of systems were pointing at pilots that year. He pointed at the plumbing.Fifteen months later the foundation is largely built and AI has stopped being a differentiator. Ambient documentation, governance committees, an AI officer on the org chart. Table stakes. Which means the hard call is no longer whether to adopt. It is where a forty seven hospital system spends its own engineering hours, where it co-develops with somebody else, and where it should admit a capability has gone commodity and just buy the thing. This is Edmund's actual test for making that call.Audit your build list. Anything three vendors already do well is payroll, not strategy.Fix the foundation before you scale AI.

1800 YEMENExamining Houthi Resilience And Arabian HistoryEdmund Fitton-Brown analyzes the escalating offensive by Houthi forces as they push to control the Yemen highlands. President Trump reportedly halted planned American airstrikes while Houthis targeted Riyadh and threatened key Saudi Arabian infrastructure. Fitton-Brown emphasizes that the Houthis represent a Zaydi revivalist movement with revolutionary ambitions extending from Mecca to Hormuz. Their expansion presents an existential threat to Saudi Arabia, which remains vulnerable due to deep internal divisions among anti-Houthi coalition partners and the withdrawal of Emirati forces. Furthermore, historical precedents highlight North Yemen's longstanding resistance to external domination, while security concerns continue to grow across the entire region. (1)
1916 YEMENHumanitarian Crisis And Houthi Regional ExpansionBridget Toomey and Edmund Fitton-Brown assess the expanding Houthi offensive in Yemen and its severe humanitarian ramifications. Toomey outlines how Houthi movements toward Taiz and Marib aim to isolate Aden and force Saudi Arabia into political concessions. Over one hundred thousand civilians have been displaced along Yemen's west coast due to ongoing fighting, worsening an already desperate economic crisis. Toomey cautions that American diplomatic strategy regarding the Houthis remains shortsighted, warning that temporary reassurances mask long-term hostile ambitions. She also criticizes Oman's role, arguing it acts as a Houthi enabler rather than a neutral negotiator in regional peace talks. (7)

Norris and I sit down with Edmund Gray, CEO of Kissmet Music Group, for a conversation that I found completely fascinating in the context of today's fast-changing world. Edmund is the creator behind Zhaion, an AI-hybrid R&B project grounded right here in Detroit, complete with a promotion online, free-to-play 8-bit game based on driving The Lodge. Rather than hiding the tech behind a curtain, Edmund is being entirely upfront about using generative tools to bring his music and world-building to life. We get into the ethics of the music business, the reality of creative tools, and why transparency matters as AI becomes, whether we like it or not, a part of our lives. This is exactly the kind of smart, nuanced local discussion I love having on the show, and I think you're going to get a lot out of it.

Near the turn of the 20th century, the United States' economy is an international powerhouse, but its military is, at best, a third-rate force. One man aims to leverage that small force to build an empire: Theodore Roosevelt. First as Assistant Secretary of the Navy and then as President, Roosevelt will reform the navy and conquer the remnants of the old Spanish Empire. Beyond that, Roosevelt will transform the nation itself by battling government corruption, supporting the nascent labor movement, and building the Panama Canal. At the end of his presidency, the world's great powers will be forced to recognize the United States as a peer – one that will play an outsized role in the World War era.

Energy Sector Heroes ~ Careers in Oil & Gas, Sustainability & Renewable Energy
For anyone working in energy or considering where their career might take them next technical knowledge is only part of the picture. The sector increasingly sits at the intersection of technology, economics, infrastructure, geopolitics and digitalisation. Understanding how those pieces connect can be just as valuable as knowing one technology in depth.In this episode of Energy Sector Heroes, I speak with Edmund Hain, an engineer and business development professional with more than 25 years of experience across technology, IT, IoT and industrial markets.We discuss why Edmund believes energy professionals need to think beyond individual technologies and understand the wider systems they operate within. Using smart grids as an example, we explore how solar generation, battery storage, smart meters, electric vehicles and software can work together and why decisions about energy infrastructure are as much economic and geopolitical as they are technical.We also talk about what this means for people building careers in energy.Edmund challenges the idea that everyone needs to become a narrow specialist. Instead, he makes the case for developing enough breadth to understand how different disciplines connect, while knowing when to bring in deeper technical expertise.

Chaque soir, la metteuse en scène Andrea Jiménez invite un nouvel acteur à monter sur scène pour endosser le rôle du Roi Lear… mais sans aucune répétition préalable et sans avoir appris le texte : un véritable saut dans le vide ! Le comédien est uniquement guidé par la metteuse en scène en direct… à l'aide d'un acteur souffleur. Mathieu Amalric, Nicolas Bouchaud, Pascal Gregory, Arthur Nauziciel, Laurent Pointrenaux, Pascal Reneric et Dorcy Rugmaba, Marcel Bozonnet : un casting de luxe avec des acteurs majeurs du théâtre et très célèbres qui acceptent de se jeter dans le vide pour jouer le Roi Lear ! le spectateur ne sait pas à l'avance quel comédien jouera le vieux roi shakespearien « c'est pour créer cet effet de surprise de l'irrépétible, de l'unique », explique Andrea Jimenez. « Les comédiens eux-mêmes acceptent pour ce désir d'être toujours surpris, de faire face à quelque chose de nouveau. » « C'est même plus qu'une expérience, c'est un voyage. », précise Marcel Bozonnet. Sur scène, Andrea Jimenez joue le rôle de Cordélia, la fille de Lear, et il y a un acteur qui souffle le texte à l'acteur qui joue Lear avec une oreillette... Cet acteur ne sait rien du texte... La metteuse en scène a appliqué ce dispositif 135 fois avec 135 acteurs différents et notamment au festival d'Avignon. Le Roi Lear, tragédie de Shakespeare, a été écrite entre 1603 et 1606. La pièce raconte l'histoire d'un vieux roi qui décide de partager son royaume entre ses trois filles en échange de déclarations d'amour. Trompé par les flatteries de Goneril et Regan, il déshérite Cordélia, la seule sincère. Les deux aînées, une fois au pouvoir, l'humilient et le chassent, tandis qu'un complot parallèle oppose le duc de Gloucester à son fils légitime Edgar, trahi par l'ambitieux Edmund. Lear sombre alors progressivement dans la folie en découvrant la trahison de ses deux filles et la fragilité du pouvoir. Cordélia revient avec une armée pour le sauver, mais la défaite, les exécutions et les meurtres se succèdent, aboutissant à la mort de Cordélia et de Lear, et à une fin profondément tragique qui interroge la justice humaine et divine... Avec cette pièce, la metteuse en scène Andrea Jimenez entend faire le lien entre son histoire personnelle et celle contée par William Shakespeare : ainsi que le Roi Lear a répudié Cordélia, la metteuse en scène a elle-même été répudiée par son père...

"In analytic training, and actually through my own analysis, is really where it happened. I think I just got more of a sense that whatever was going on with my students and the parents of my students was maybe not about me. It might not be all up to me, and something about that really freed me up to do better work. Another way I'll describe what you're talking about is that I had an adult violin student several years ago, and she wanted me to explain everything. And I said, "Well, I can. Do you want to learn how the violin is played, or do you want to learn how to actually play the violin?" Those are two very different things to me. I feel like what happened in the course of my analytic training, in the course of my own analysis, is I learned how to play the violin. The pre-stuff to that was about how analysis is done, but I actually learned how to do it and how to be it by going through it. Episode Description: We begin Ed's musical journey with his describing the importance of his musical family and community on his interest in learning to play an instrument. When watching his older sister play piano, he discovered the feeling of I want to do that. He pursued violin playing and studied with Shin'ichi Suzuki in Japan. He then returned to the States and in an effort to better appreciate his young students' experiences, he immersed himself in the world of developmental psychology and earned an MSW. Later he would pursue analytic training at the St. Louis Psychoanalytic Institute. This training enabled him to actually become an analytic clinician rather than learning about analysis. We discuss how his clinical work influenced his work as a music instructor, helping him consider "who I become to the student in the lesson." He shares with us the many mentors who have inspired and educated him in his two careers. It was when observing senior colleagues' nuanced analytic ways of thinking that he discovered anew his experience of I want to do that.

CAPTION: 1926 YEMENEdmund Fitton-Brown chronicles the history, structure, and ideological motivations of the Houthi movement in Yemen. Emerging in the mid-1990s as a Zaydi revivalist cult modeled after Lebanese Hezbollah, the group adopted a highly hostile five-part slogan ("the scream") emphasizing anti-American, anti-Semitic, and anti-Israel vitriol. Over decades of conflict, they waged multiple rebellions against former dictator Ali Abdullah Saleh before forming a tactical alliance with him to seize power. Known as relentless fighters who are always up for a battle, the Houthis harbor expansive territorial ambitions in southern Saudi Arabia, aiming to control the holy sites of Mecca and Medina. (5)

The speakers examine the global energy crisis, specifically focusing on the critical shortages in refined oil caused by military conflicts and infrastructure limits. A significant portion of the conversation details the suffering of the Iranian people under a repressive regime, using anecdotes from a firsthand account of life in Tehran. The dialogue also addresses the ongoing war in Gaza, the complexities of urban warfare, and the challenges of achieving peace through international organizations like the United Nations. Finally, the participants reflect on the political polarization surrounding Middle Eastern reporting and the difficulties of maintaining objectivity during conflict.
CAPTION: ARTAXERSES OF PERSIAEdmund Fitton-Brown details the bleak economic reality for citizens in Tehran living under severe economic sanctions and a low-intensity conflict. Ordinary residents are reduced to driving for ride-sharing apps like Snapp and begging for food due to skyrocketing prices of staple goods like yogurt. While the regime's elite remain insulated, sanctions have severely strained the general population without driving systemic behavior changes. Furthermore, the discussion examines the declining global credibility of the United Nations. The organization has abandoned its neutrality by focusing excessively on targeting Israel and prioritizing humanitarian relief, which frequently ends up diverted to empower oppressive regimes. (1)

Edmund Fitton-Brown critiques the term "economic D-Day," explaining that Pakistan's mediation in Iran is self-interested, driven by fears of secondary US sanctions. These sanctions have suffocated Iran's economy, reducing oil exports and sparking hyperinflation. Iraq also struggles with contradictory policies, balancing its US alliance with pro-Iranian gestures, such as securing tanker passage through the Strait of Hormuz. In the Red Sea, the Houthis demand tribute from Saudi Arabia to halt attacks on tankers and pipelines. Fitton-Brown warns that paying the Houthis only delays their long-term expansionist goals against Saudi territory and Israel. (7)
David Daoud and Edmund Fitton-Brown examine UNIFIL's mandate, which restricts it to acting as an auxiliary to the Lebanese Armed Forces, preventing independent disarmament of Hezbollah. Consequently, Hezbollah operates freely near UN watchtowers and tunnel networks. Daoud argues that while new US Treasury sanctions expanding target parameters to include Iranian violations are positive, they fail to address Hezbollah's deep integration into Lebanon's socio-political fabric. To be effective, the West must treat Hezbollah as a Lebanese entity with sovereign responsibilities, rather than purely an Iranian proxy. True security requires targeting all of Hezbollah's activities, including its social and political wings. (5)
Janatyn Sayeh and Edmund Fitton-Brown examine Iranian official Ghalibaf's public appearance in Iraq, signaling defiance to the US and Israel before secondary sanctions are revealed. Sayeh explains that Iran views Iraq as its backyard, using it to evade sanctions by blending Iranian oil with Iraqi exports. Under President Trump, US economic scrutiny on Iraq has increased to block this smuggling. While maximum pressure has devalued Iran's currency and caused hyperinflation, Iran aims to overwhelm Washington by utilizing its regional proxy networks across Yemen, Lebanon, and Iraq. The US must view these proxies as Iranian arms rather than local actors. (2)
Conrad Black and co-host Edmund Fitton-Brown discuss the collapse of trade negotiations and subsequent US tariff threats that have sparked a major political crisis in Canada, leading to opposition calls to immediately reconvene Parliament. Black describes a stark contrast in national attitudes, noting that President Trump's rhetoric effectively denies Canada's sovereignty. This perceived affront has deeply united Canadians across party lines, who view the tariffs as an assault on national identity rather than a mere commercial dispute. Black highlights potential Republican electoral fallout in key US Senate races like Maine and Michigan, and suggests a bilateral phone call could resolve the dispute. (1)

Meanwhile, in Venezuela, Delcyand Jorge Rodríguez are simulating cooperation with the US while delaying presidential elections to buy time. Peña Esclusa notes that Venezuelan opposition members are negotiating Supreme Court appointments rather than election dates or political prisoners. Both guests will attend Slovenia's Bled Strategic Forum to discuss Latin America's right-wing political shift and potential energy partnerships with Europe. (3)Malcolm Hoenlein and Edmund Fitton-Brown discuss rising security concerns in Israel after incendiary balloons from Gaza were discovered, potentially testing Israel's border preparedness. Concurrently, Turkey is expanding its regional footprint, occupying 5% of Syria and attempting to establish military bases, which Israel countered with airstrikes. In Gaza, Jared Kushner met with Hamas in Cairo, a move that critics argue bolsters the group's status despite declining local support. Meanwhile, the US Treasury has previewed secondary sanctions on Iranian trading partners, including China. Iran's economy is in collapse, with inflation skyrocketing and the currency reaching an all-time low.

(5)Ivana Stradner and Edmund Fitton-Brown analyze Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's visit to Belgrade, which does not signal a split between Serbia and Russia. President Vučić's weapons sales to Ukraine are merely lucrative business deals. Serbia remains highly dependent on Russia, sharing deep intelligence ties and cooperating with the FSB to test crowd-control equipment. Vučić balances these relationships to survive domestic protests sparked by environmental concerns and a severe heatwave. Stradner, recently returning from Israel, reports that Israeli morale remains exceptionally high despite facing a multi-front threat from Iran's proxy network, which Russia continues to exploit through regional propaganda and strategic manipulation.

(7)Samuel Ben-Ur and Edmund Fitton-Brown discuss how, following a temporary lull, Hamas has intensified attacks in Gaza, emboldened by disarmament frameworks proposed by Egyptian, Qatari, and Turkish mediators. Ben-Ur notes Hamas only accepted the deal under the pretense of disarming while intending to survive intact. However, following Jared Kushner's visit, the US aligned with Israel's stance, demanding total disarmament before military withdrawal. Fitton-Brown and Ben-Ur discuss the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (ENCAG), a secular government planned to replace Hamas. Lacking military power, ENCAG's deployment depends on an international stabilization force, though troop commitments remain severely short. (8)Michael Sobolik and Edmund Fitton-Brown examine how Chinese AI company Moonshot bypassed US export controls by "distilling" technology from Anthropic's Claude Opus model to train its own system, Kimi K3. This intellectual property theft threatens American market dominance and national security. Sobolik recommends three policy actions: imposing crushing financial sanctions on violating Chinese firms, closing export control loopholes related to remote cloud access, and banning open CCP models in the United States. He warns that American tech companies prioritizing short-term profits over security risk losing the AI race, mirroring historical patterns of Chinese piracy. (9)John Hardie and Edmund Fitton-Brown outline Russia's military assistance to Iran via the Caspian Sea, a highly secure transit route. This collaboration benefits Moscow by raising energy prices and draining US munition stockpiles like Patriot interceptors, giving Russia a freer hand in Ukraine. Russia provides Iran with tactical intelligence, drone components to resist satellite jamming, and has agreed to deliver shoulder-launched air defense missiles. While Ukraine and Israel have attempted long-range strikes against trade vessels and ports to disrupt this flow, interdiction is difficult because the Caspian Sea operates as a protected, non-transparent Russian-Iranian military lake.

Edmund Fitton-Brown argues that the U.S. is "running out of ideas" regarding economic pressure on Iran, labeling a land blockade as far-fetched due to uncooperative neighbors. He suggests that secondary sanctions on Chinese "teapot" refineries are a more practical tool. Regarding Yemen, Fitton-Brown observes that the Houthis have become emboldened by U.S. irresolution and are pushing south to capture the Bab el-Mandeb. He expresses cautious optimism regarding Jared Kushner's diplomatic delegation, noting that experienced figures like Tony Blair are unlikely to be "dupes" for Hamas during negotiations. (5)

"This is the final Rock School show. We felt 1000 shows was a good number to end on since Tammy and I are retiring at the end of this year. Thank you to all who ran the show. You gave us an audience. For this final hour, we are looking at the top 10 moments from the almost 20 years of shows. Thanks again and goodbye. We sure did enjoy your company."
Edmund Fitton-Brown describes the Houthis' methodical campaign, likely coordinated with Iran, to intimidate Saudi Arabia and prevent its entry into the Abraham Accords. Recent strikes on Mocha and Jazan highlight a resurgence of the 12-year-old Yemeni civil war, which remains a primary source of regional instability. While a new Sunni alliance between Pakistan and Turkey offers symbolic support to the Saudis, it lacks the practical military "teeth" to intervene on the ground. Meanwhile, the UAE is asserting itself as an agile regional powerhouse, investing in high-tech infrastructure and maintaining an uncompromising stance against the Muslim Brotherhood. (7)

Edmund Fitton-Brown: The Houthis have launched a blockade against Saudi shipping in the Red Sea, targeting energy routes critical to global markets. In response, Saudi Arabia has formed a fourteen-nation defense coalition to protect the Bab el-Mandeb, notably excluding the UAE and Oman. While the Houthis maintain some autonomy, they are heavily dependent on Iranian technical assistance and resupply. Iran has used regional pauses to restock its arsenal and now threatens Saudi infrastructure, including desalination plants and pipelines. Experts believe the US remains the elephant in the room, but a lack of consistent policy from Washington emboldens the Houthis to continue their aggressive psychological warfare. (7)1962 YEMEN

FILE 11. Headline: The Houthi-Iran Alliance and the Fragile Conflict with Saudi Arabia Guest: Edmund Fitton Brown Summary: Edmund Fitton Brown discusses the Houthis' motivation as a revolutionary Islamic force aligned with Iran's campaign against the West. While independent-minded, they share deep ideological ties with Hezbollah. The U.S. prematurely ceased military operations against them last year due to budgetary issues and Omani pressure, failing to stop Red Sea attacks. Recently, tensions escalated as Saudi Arabia challenged Houthi attempts to establish direct flights to Iran.
Headline: Iran's Drone Test: Challenging the US Strategic Pause Guest: Edmund Fitton-Brown and Bill Roggio Summary: Following a US suspension of airstrikes, Iran launched drone attacks against Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Iraq to test the Trump administration's resolve. Edmund Fitton-Brown explains that Iran aims to prove it decides when pauses occur, not the US. The segment warns that without consistent US pressure, Iran could establish a "regional protection racket," leaving Arab states to seek separate accommodations with the bully on the block.
Edmund Fitton-Brown. The long-standing truce between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia has unraveled as the group attempts to break a decade-long blockade. Edmund Fitton-Brown explains the Houthis now control major Yemeni state organs and possess the capability to strike deep into Saudi territory. While air campaigns have hurt the group, they remain difficult to deter because they view the suffering of the Yemeni people as a badge of martyrdom. (11)1962
Edmund Fitton-Brown. The U.S. continues a naval blockade intended to reduce Iran to bankruptcy, as Tehranmaintains "impossible demands" regarding the Strait of Hormuz. Edmund Fitton-Brown suggests while Russia and China provide intelligence and resupply, they are unlikely to take serious risks to save the regime. Ultimately, the conflict may depend on national patience, with the U.S. capable of sustaining pressure until the Iranian leadership is forced to compromise. (12)1990 YEMEN
Edmund Fitton-Brown — The U.S. is reimposing a naval blockade on Iran after the collapse of the poorly drafted memorandum of understanding; Iran's economy is "choking to death" under these measures, and guests argue the U.S.must prioritize controlling the Strait of Hormuz through international cooperation and naval power. (11)
Edmund Fitton-Brown — The truce between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis may be over following strikes on Sanaaairport, with retaliatory attacks potentially targeting major Saudi international airports and oil facilities; despite Iranianinfluence, the new Iraqi prime minister appears to be drifting toward the United States for security and stability. (12)
