As tensions with Iran escalate, Democrats suddenly claim to care about rising gas prices—despite years of supporting policies designed to increase them. Tara breaks down the political messaging war happening alongside the military conflict and explains how Iran's strategy relies on weakening American public support for President Trump. Meanwhile, reports suggest Iran's leadership may be in chaos, missile attacks are dropping, and U.S. operations are hitting key Iranian infrastructure. Tara also reflects on the tragic loss of U.S. service members after a KC-135 crash in Iraq and what the latest military moves around Kharg Island could mean for the next phase of the conflict. SUMMARY This episode examines the political and military narratives surrounding the U.S. conflict with Iran. Tara argues that Iran cannot defeat the United States militarily and is instead focusing on shaping American public opinion through political pressure and media narratives. Democrats are now warning about rising gas prices caused by the war—despite years of advocating policies designed to raise fuel costs to accelerate the transition to electric vehicles. Tara contrasts today's fuel prices with the record highs during the Biden administration, when inflation peaked and gasoline exceeded five dollars per gallon. The episode also explores reports of chaos within Iran's leadership after the death of the Ayatollah and the possible incapacitation of his successor. With Iranian missile attacks reportedly declining and key energy infrastructure under pressure, analysts suggest the U.S. campaign has been strategically effective so far. However, risks remain. The U.S. may deploy several hundred Marines to secure Kharg Island, a critical Iranian oil export hub. Tara warns that any American casualties could quickly become political leverage for critics of the war at home. Finally, the show honors the American service members lost in the KC-135 crash in Iraq and reflects on the sacrifices made by the military during ongoing operations in the region. KEY TALKING POINTS Democrats warn about gas prices after years of supporting higher fuel costs Iran's strategy may rely on political pressure inside the U.S. Gas prices today compared to Biden-era inflation peaks Reports that Iran's leadership may be unstable or incapacitated Declining Iranian missile and drone attacks Strategic importance of Kharg Island operations Potential Marine deployment and risks on the ground Remembering the service members lost in the KC-135 crash SOCIAL MEDIA BLURB Democrats suddenly care about gas prices—but only after war with Iran begins. Tara exposes the political messaging battle happening at home while U.S. forces strike key Iranian targets abroad.

Tara exposes how Democrats are siding with Iran while attacking Trump, manipulating public perception, and ignoring skyrocketing gas prices. From military operations in the Middle East to skewed late-night comedy narratives, this episode reveals the hidden realities the media won't tell you. SUMMARY In this episode, Tara breaks down the weekend's political and military developments, showing how Democrats are prioritizing propaganda over national security. She explains how the party paints Americans and Trump as “terrorists” while ignoring Iran, the world's top state sponsor of terrorism. Tara highlights the impact of the Iran conflict on U.S. gas prices, noting that averages are back to Biden-era highs, and argues this aligns with Democrats' broader strategy to push Americans toward electric vehicles. She also debunks media coverage of Iran, including misinformation about Mostaba Khomeini's health and leadership status, showing how outlets continue to treat him as a credible threat despite reports he is in a coma and incapacitated. Additionally, Tara examines late-night comedy and media coverage, noting how Iran has become off-limits, while Americans are mocked instead, creating a “fake reality” for viewers. She frames this manipulation as part of a larger Democratic alignment with Iran, undermining U.S. interests both domestically and abroad. KEY TALKING POINTS Democrats prioritize messaging against Trump over calling Iran a terrorist state Gas prices spike back to Biden-era averages amid Iran conflict Media continues to misrepresent Mostaba Khomeini as a military threat despite being incapacitated Late-night comedy targets U.S. and allies while Iran is treated as untouchable Democrats' strategy aligns with long-term goals to influence public opinion and policy Military updates: Operation Epic Fury, nuclear and missile targets, friendly-fire incidents from allies The “fake reality” created by media and politicians skews public understanding of war and energy policy SOCIAL MEDIA BLURB Democrats siding with Iran? Gas prices back to Biden-era highs? Tara exposes media lies, political propaganda, and the real story behind the Iran conflict.

March, 14 2026, 7 AM; The U.S. Embassy in Baghdad was struck by a missile according to Iraqi security forces Saturday morning, after U.S. forces bombed targets on Iran's Kharg Island, home to the primary terminal that handles that country's oil exports.

There has been an alarming amount of physical assault and middle fingers flying in the pro peloton lately. Last weekend, UCI race officials disqualified NSN Devo rider Kiaan Watts after he reached out and struck a competitor in the head mid-race. Just days later, British time trial champion Ethan Hayter earned himself a $645 fine and a docking of 25 UCI points for flashing his middle finger to a TV moto at 54 kilometers an hour during the Tirreno-Adriatico. Which begs the question: when was the last time you completely lost your cool mid-ride? In this week's episode, Mike, Lisa, and I share our own stories of frustration, adrenaline, and bad behavior. These are not stories any of us—well, maybe Mike—are particularly proud of, but it happens. Lisa details her dark fantasy involving spark plugs, and I pretend like I might actually have the courage to remove a mirror or two. Mike confesses to standing in an intersection in full Lycra and kinda, maybe, definitely threatening a driver. We want to hear about your frustrated moments with cars, so jump into the comments and let us know. This wasn't only a complaining episode, though. This past week was a massive week for road tech, and we had two incredibly different bikes to dissect. First up is the fourth-generation Giant Propel. Giant is making a massive aero claim of 18 watts saved. Is that even possible? I break down the fine print after cross-referencing three different press releases, and I talk about why I think it's actually quite likely—but also why you might not even need a new bike to take advantage of those 18 watts. The big news this week, though, is not about aero gains. I'm super excited to talk about the new Cannondale CAAD14 and why Cannondale is leading this launch with an apology. The latest model in this lineup is heavier than the last one, but that's not what the apology is about. There's also a showstopper brushed aluminum version, and we talk about why you can't buy it. Finally, we tackle a question from Velo editor Jim Cotton: When you are completely bonked, shivering, and staring blankly into a gas station aisle, what is your desperation snack of choice? Lisa has a jersey pocket recipe of marinated chicken nuggets that's either genius or offensive, while I rain on the parade with a more clinical eye for my choices. No surprise if you listen regularly, Mike chooses Monster. I also share a story about a near-mythical vending machine I encountered outside Vienna, Austria, around 1 a.m. near the end of a 200-ish mile ride. There's also some time spent on listener questions and comments where Lisa shares an absolutely outrageous opinion about downtube storage before Mike says he wants a leather-bound novel with his bike… or maybe just a paper manual. I also spend some time talking about the merits of the user experience as it relates to package design and high-end sunglasses, and we all confess to hoarding tires. As you wrap it up, we definitely want to know your take on Lisa's recipe, what you would have chosen from the vending machine, and how you feel about downtube storage.

Tara breaks down the latest headlines on Iran, global oil markets, and U.S. gas prices. From media hype over a purported new Iranian leader to predictions of oil gluts and market volatility, this episode separates fact from fiction and shows how fake news and politics are impacting energy and the economy. Episode Summary: In today's episode, Tara dissects the chaotic coverage surrounding Iran and its alleged new leadership, the Strait of Hormuz, and the global oil market. Reports have claimed the Iranian leader is threatening to shut down the strategic waterway, but multiple sources, including the UK Daily Mail, suggest he may be in a coma and unaware of ongoing conflicts. Tara explores how mainstream media coverage has amplified fear and confusion, influencing both gas prices and market perceptions. She contrasts current gas prices with historical trends under previous administrations, highlighting how political actions and monetary policy have affected affordability for Americans. Senior market analyst Phil Flynn shares insights on oil markets, explaining that short-term instability has caused temporary price spikes, but a glut of oil is expected once conflicts ease, potentially driving prices down significantly. Tara explains how media sensationalism often distorts market reactions, drawing parallels to previous economic scare tactics. The episode emphasizes the importance of critical thinking when navigating news coverage and economic reporting, and previews upcoming discussions on oil supply, global conflict, and energy policy. Key Topics Covered: Alleged threats from Iran and Strait of Hormuz concerns Media sensationalism vs. verified facts on Iran's leadership U.S. gas prices compared to historical trends Phil Flynn on oil market predictions and gluts Media influence on public perception and markets Energy policy and global conflict implications Is the Iranian leadership crisis real—or just media hype? Gas prices, oil markets, and fake news collide in today's analysis.

Advisors on This Week's Show Kyle Tetting Dave Sandstrom John Sandstrom (with Max Hoelzl, Joel Dresang, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (March 9-13, 2026) Significant Economic Indicators & Reports Monday No major announcements Tuesday The National Association of Realtors said the pace of existing home sales rose 1.7% in February, though it was still behind the year-ago rate and around the lowest in more than 30 years. The trade group called demand “muted” as lower mortgage rates and rising wages combined to make housing more affordable than it has been since March 2022. The median sales price rose to $398,000, up 0.3% from February 2025, the 32nd consecutive increase. Wednesday The broadest measure of inflation stayed steady in February. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the Consumer Price Index rose 2.4% from February 2025, unadjusted for seasonality. That was the same rate as January and still above the Federal Reserve's long-term target of 2%. Shelter costs led the monthly uptick. Gas prices rose for the first time in three months — prior to subsequent spikes spurred by the Iran war. The core CPI, excluding volatile food and energy costs, was up 2.5% from the year before, also the same rate as January. Thursday The U.S. trade deficit narrowed by 25% in January to $54.5 billion. The Bureau of Economic Analysis said exports rose 5.5% from December, led by non-monetary gold and other precious metals, as well as computers and civilian aircraft. Imports shrank 0.7%, led by pharmaceuticals and automobiles. Since January 2025, the trade gap contracted by almost 58% as exports expanded 10% and imports fell 11%. The four-week moving average for initial unemployment claims fell for the third time in four weeks, suggesting employers continue to be reluctant to let workers leave. According to data from the Labor Department, the four-week number was 41% below the 59-year average. More than 2.2 million individuals were receiving jobless benefits in the latest week, up 3.5% from the week before and down less than 1% from the year before. The Commerce Department said housing starts and building permits in January continued to track below their pre-COVID levels. Although the annual pace of housing starts rose 7% from December and 9.5% from January 2025, it has been below the pre-pandemic level for nearly two years. Building permits fell both from the month before and the year before. Meanwhile, the pace of houses under construction fell again, sinking 26% below their record pace in late 2022. Friday The U.S. economy grew slower than previously estimated at the end of 2025. The gross domestic product rose at an annual rate of 1.7% in the fourth quarter, down from a preliminary report of 2.4% and below the 4.4% pace in the third quarter. The Bureau of Economic Analysis blamed the downward revision on weaker consumer spending and private investments and greater declines in government spending and exports. Adjusted for Inflation, GDP grew 2.1% in 2025, the weakest since a 2.1% decline in 2020. In a possible sign of consumer restraint, personal spending fell slightly behind the pace of personal income in January, raising the personal savings rate to its highest level in six months. The Bureau of Economic Analysis reported a savings rate of 4.5% of disposable income, which has been below the pre-pandemic level of 7.5% for more than four years. The same report showed the Federal Reserve’s preferred measure of inflation staying above its long-range target of 2%. The personal consumption expenditure index was up 2.8% from the year before, vs. 2.9% in December. The last time it was below 2% was February 2021. Durable goods orders were unchanged in January as a plunge in demand for commercial aircraft offset scattered gains elsewhere. The Commerce Department reported that orders overall ran 9% higher than the year before. Excluding volatile transportation orders, demand rose 0.4% from the month before and was up 4.4% from January 2025. Core capital goods orders, a proxy for business investments, were unchanged for the month and up 2.9% from the year before. U.S. employers posted 6.9 million job openings in January, up marginally from December but below the pre-COVID level for the third month in a row. Postings were down 43% from their peak nearly five years ago, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported. Based on openings and unemployed job seekers, the supply of available labor has outpaced demand since July. That’s after more than four years of the balance favoring workers. The number and rate of workers voluntarily quitting – an indication of worker confidence – stayed below pre-pandemic levels for the 25th month in a row. The University of Michigan said consumer sentiment reversed course following the onset of war in Iran. Polling done before Feb. 28 showed improvements in consumer outlooks, the university said, but opinions plunged thereafter regardless of respondents’ incomes, ages or political affiliations. Overall, consumers had lower expectations for their personal finances and higher forecasts for inflation. Market Closings for the Week Nasdaq – 22105, down 282 points or 1.3% S&P 500 – 6632, down 108 points or 1.6% Dow Jones Industrial Average – 46560, down 942 points or 2.0% 10-year U.S. Treasury Note – 4.29%, up 0.15 point

Der Iran-Krieg erschüttert die Weltwirtschaft. Die Preise für Erdöl und Gas schießen in die Höhe, das trifft die Verbraucher in Australien, Deutschland und eigentlich überall hart. Auch der Aktienmarkt lässt Federn und vor allem wird die Hoffnung auf Wirtschaftswachstum zerstört. Die hohen Preise treiben auch die Inflation nach oben. Finanzexperte Dr. Klaus Wiegel hat wenig Hoffnung auf baldige Besserung.

Last week on Fox overpaid television personalities tried to fake their way through a war they didn't understand. As the president changed the reasons he started the military conflict with Iran the folks at Fox struggled to forge a coherent message about it.The propaganda machine sputtered and stumbled. The network kept repeating Trump's mixed messages:* The war was already over/The war will be over soon/This isn't a war* High gas prices are a small price to pay for freedom/Gas prices will drop immediately/Americans don't care about high gas prices* There will be no ground invasion of U.S. troops/There might be a short ground invasion of U.S. troops* We've killed their leadership/The new leadership is worse than the old leadership* Trump is the peace president/Trump has started military conflicts with seven different countries* This war will bring long-term peace/Every problem in the world is caused by Iran* Russia is helping Iran/Russia is not a concern/This war is about China* The U.S. is NOT fighting Iran for Israel/Sean Hannity featured a 21 minute interview with Israeli Prime Minister Bibi NetanyahuWhen Fox News hosts weren't talking out of both sides of their mouths, they were promoting Trump's lies.* Americans overwhelmingly approve of Trump's decision to attack Iran - several polls say otherwise* Iran was capable of a nuclear attack on the U.S. or Israel - despite no evidence supporting this* The people of Iran will rise up and take over their government - so far no such movement has formed. It could be because people don't want to stage a revolution while being attacked by the U.S. and Israel* Trump's promises of ‘no new wars' did not mean he's an isolationistIn the four years I've covered Fox News the past week is the weakest I've ever seen the network. Instead of a streamlined well thought out strategy to promote the war the network's messaging is a sloppy mess full of contradictions. This is a public episode.

Gas prices are rising again — and the political blame game is already underway. In today's episode, Tara and Lee break down the debate over energy prices, U.S. tensions with Iran, and how both parties are shaping the narrative around national security and the economy. As threats ranging from cyberattacks to potential drone strikes dominate headlines, the conversation turns to how messaging from Washington could shape public sentiment. With energy markets reacting to geopolitical conflict and political leaders battling for control of the narrative, the stakes extend far beyond the pump. Summary Tara and Lee analyze the political debate surrounding rising gas prices as tensions between the United States and Iran escalate. They compare current fuel prices with those seen during previous periods of high inflation and examine how political leaders often assign blame for energy costs during times of international conflict. The episode also explores broader national security concerns, including warnings about cyberattacks, potential drone threats, and the vulnerability of critical infrastructure during geopolitical crises. Tara argues that these issues require coordinated messaging and policy responses from government leaders. A key theme of the discussion centers on political communication. Tara critiques how both parties frame major events and argues that consistent messaging plays a critical role in shaping public perception during crises. Ultimately, the episode examines how economic pressure, foreign policy tensions, and political messaging collide in shaping America's response to global threats. Key Topics Rising gas prices and the political debate surrounding them Comparisons between current fuel costs and previous inflation spikes U.S.–Iran tensions and potential economic consequences Cybersecurity threats and infrastructure risks during conflict Political messaging strategies in Washington How geopolitical events influence domestic economic narratives Social Media Post ⛽ Gas prices are climbing — but the real battle may be over the narrative. Tara breaks down the politics behind rising fuel costs, tensions with Iran, and how Washington messaging shapes public perception during global crises.

Hawk and Mr. Global discuss the Iran War and the global impact on Oil and Gas. A few more weeks of this could plunge the world into a global recession, and there is no end in sight at this point. Rumors of Iran placing mines in the Straight of Hormuz are running rampant, all governments are lying and making up false narratives to further their own political agendas and nobody can be trusted as a legitimate source of truth. A truly dystopian time we are living through right now both in the United States and also in the world. Like Iran and Israel, the United States is no longer trustworthy for information. The Trump administration has demonstrated how willing they are to lie to further Donald Trump's political agenda of remaining in power, avoiding accountability as it relates to the Esptein Files and in all likelihood staying out of prison in the long term.

The war with Iran is escalating, and the consequences may be hitting America in more ways than one. Gas prices are already rising as global oil markets react to the conflict, and economists warn that a prolonged war could drive inflation higher and put even more pressure on American households. Meanwhile, the political fallout is growing at home. Poll after poll shows that more Americans oppose the conflict than support it, with many feeling the administration has failed to clearly explain its goals. So what happens if the war drags on? Is the U.S. already losing the economic battle at home? And if the strategy isn't clear… could America actually lose this war? This episode is sponsored by FFRF.

I've reached a point where the marketplace of ideas feels broken. The conversation around the Iran war, especially the discussion about oil prices and the Strait of Hormuz, has been less about understanding events and more about reacting to every twitch in the market.This realization hit me last weekend when I watched otherwise smart commentators react breathlessly to oil futures spiking. Writers like Nate Silver and Derek Thompson framed the surge in prices as a potentially catastrophic moment for the Trump administration, a Rubicon that could permanently damage the president's economic credibility.That logic makes sense in theory. Gas prices are one of the most politically sensitive indicators in American life. If they rise sharply and stay elevated, the economic narrative can turn quickly against any administration. But what bothered me wasn't the conclusion. It was how little anyone seemed to know about the mechanics behind the story.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The Strait of Hormuz, through which a massive share of the world's oil flows, became the center of speculation. Could Iran shut it down? Had it ever been fully closed before? What would the United States do if shipping lanes were mined?These are complex questions. Yet much of the discussion reduced them to the most basic possible analysis: oil prices go up, oil prices go down.The Problem With Market Narratives and the Age of Info SlopOver the course of a single night, I found myself obsessively researching the issue. I dug into the Iran–Iraq tanker wars of the 1980s, when both countries targeted shipping in the Persian Gulf. I looked at how mines were deployed in the Strait of Hormuz and how the United States eventually intervened to escort tankers and protect trade routes.The historical lesson was clear. Even during the worst periods of that conflict, the strait never truly closed. Oil shipments slowed and risks increased, but global energy markets adapted.By Monday morning, the markets themselves seemed to confirm the lesson. Oil prices surged, then dropped back below their previous levels. The panic narrative collapsed almost as quickly as it appeared.What replaced it was not clarity but confusion. Rumors circulated that Iran was mining the strait. Other reports suggested ships were still passing through after turning off their transponders. At one point, a claim that the U.S. Navy had escorted a tanker through the strait briefly moved markets before the White House denied it.This constant churn of speculation reveals a deeper problem: very few people actually know what is happening.In theory, the modern information environment should make us better informed. Instead, it often produces the opposite result. Analysts extrapolate sweeping conclusions from tiny fragments of data, while social media amplifies every rumor until it looks like evidence.The result is what I can only describe as “info slop.” Bits of partially verified information get passed along, combined, and reinterpreted until the original facts are almost impossible to distinguish from the speculation built around them.In a normal news cycle, that dynamic is frustrating. But in a war, it is dangerous.The Iran conflict carries enormous stakes. A prolonged fight could reshape the Middle East, disrupt global energy markets, or even trigger a wider geopolitical confrontation. Yet the public conversation about the war often resembles message-board debates rather than serious analysis.We are arguing over rumors about oil shipments and naval escorts while the broader strategic picture remains murky.Part of the problem is structural. During wartime, the actors with the most reliable information have strong incentives not to share it. Governments conceal details to protect military operations. Adversaries spread misinformation to manipulate perceptions.Even seemingly straightforward facts become difficult to confirm. Was a school struck by a missile because of a U.S. attack, an Iranian malfunction, or something else entirely? Did Iran mine shipping lanes, or were markets reacting to a rumor?In many cases, the honest answer is simply that we do not know.And yet the conversation continues as if every piece of incomplete information carries definitive meaning.Stepping Back From the NoiseFor me, the lesson is simple. If the discourse is making you feel more confident about events you barely understand, it may not actually be informing you. It may simply be feeding the human instinct to fill gaps in knowledge with speculation.The war with Iran could become one of the defining geopolitical events of this era. It could destabilize a region, reshape energy markets, or even trigger regime change inside Iran itself.But right now, much of what passes for analysis is just noise layered on top of uncertainty. The healthiest response might be the hardest one: consume less of it. Read less news that pretends to provide clarity where none exists.We don't know what's happening yet. And pretending otherwise doesn't make us smarter.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:18 - Thomas Massie00:06:24 - Iran Discourse00:16:59 - Kirk Bado on Iran00:32:36 - Update00:33:36 - Oil00:34:51 - SAVE America Act00:40:41 - AI Hiring00:42:49 - Kirk Bado on Iran, con't00:54:38 - Kirk Bado on Texas01:13:09 - Steelers Talk01:22:16 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.
