Grant is back from the hospital with baby number two and opens with a Newport tourism brief, the Turkey Pull, and America 250 plate news before Jeff runs a two-man staff brief — Lieutenant Benelli's Red Sox update, a Toledo cousin in the S-2 confirming the Strait of Hormuz is closed, a hazy-IPA sidebar, eight of nine dumpsters deadlined, and the debut of Chief Petty Officer Seventeen from mental health (cookies available). Then the birth story in full: leaving an ethics class mid-break, the A1 pizza steak sandwich called "the Bomb," Patriots at seven and baby at halftime, a 9/11 conversation with a nurse who was three years old that day, and a hospital cafeteria meat plate. Grant answers a listener question on preventing injury on starting strength, the two war-college guys compare speakers and Q&A tactics, and Tres finally arrives (with feedback) for football: Auburn over Southern Miss, South Carolina in the rain, the Citadel losing in double OT again, Sark and Holly Rowe, and the week 3 picks. A "first two weeks with a newborn" segment, the movie Pressure, and a debate on whether officers should wear ribbons round it out.Podcast Hosts:Grant Broggi: Marine Veteran, Owner of The Strength Co. and Starting Strength Coach.Jeff Buege: Marine Veteran, Outdoorsman, Football Fan and LifterTres Gottlich: Marine Veteran, Texan, Fisherman, Crazy College Football Fan and LifterJoin the Slack and Use code OKAY:⁠https://buy.stripe.com/dR6dT4aDcfuBdyw5ks⁠Check out BW Tax: ⁠https://www.bwtaxllc.com⁠BUY A FOOTBALL HELMET:⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thestrength.co/mrhelmet/?utm_source=The+Okay+Podcast&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_campaign=Okay_Pod⁠Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro 06:54 - Staff Brief19:23 - Outlying Stations24:01 - Grant & Diana's New Baby Is Born34:10 - How To Prevent Injuries While Doing Starting Strength42:18 - War College Update52:18 - Tres Joins The Show!54:29 - College Football Update01:01:07 - Tres' Picks of The Week01:12:31 - First 2 Weeks With A Newborn01:18:14 - Movies01:23:48 - Saved Rounds

For a brewery with a well-loved flagship brand, changing the recipe is fraught with opportunities for failure. Mess up a beloved beer, and customers will let you know that you blew it, but make it better (or give it more longevity in the package), and you'll likely hear nothing at all. Flagstaff, Arizona's Mother Road Brewing rose to the occasion recently, redesigning their Tower Station IPA with modern hop products and no pellets on the hot side to reduce brewhouse waste (and placate the local waste-management authority) and to boost efficiency and yield while reducing shipping costs. In this episode, produced in partnership with Hopsteiner and recorded in their experimental field on the Golden Gate farm in Prosser, Washington, Mother Road COO Peter Kruger shares the story of Mother Road's embrace of modern hop products, alongside Hopsteiner West Coast sales rep (and former Bear Republic brewmaster) Roger Herpst and breeding research scientist Ryan Gregory. Through this conversation, they touch on: hot-side efficiency and brewing with no hot-side pellets using concentrated T-45 pellets for dry hopping replacing singular hops with specially formulated hop blends such as Trident™ maintaining foam stability with advanced hop products hop-derived fruit-like flavor through LLZ the Hopsteiner hop-breeding process new generations of hops with better genetics to provide familiar flavors at lower cost with lower environmental impact And more. This episode is produced in partnership with Hopsteiner, a vertically integrated global hops supplier dedicated to delivering the finest hops and hop products available. Founded in 1845, Hopsteiner is a sixth-generation grower that continues to advance the industry as one of the foremost international hop growing, breeding, trading, and processing firms in the world. Hopsteiner ships hops globally and partners with breweries of all sizes, offering unique hop varieties and innovative hop products designed to enhance flavor, aroma, consistency, and flexibility for brewing and beyond.

"Pacific Northwest Coast IPA" might not be a thing, but it's a jumping off point for this week's panel discussion on IPA featuring three noted and award-winning brewers—Whitney Burnside of Grand Fir (Portland, Oregon), Chris Baum of Varietal (Sunnyside, Washington), and Ben Edmunds of Breakside (Portland and Milwaukie, Oregon)—recorded live at our Brewer's Retreat in Yakima, Washington. Through the conversation, the three discuss: differentiating American and West Coast IPA building beers in dialogue with consumers driving signature notes with Centennial cryo, Comet, Cashmere, Audacia, and more lowering hop astringency without sacrificing bitterness using contrasting lots for different expression within the same hop variety the impact of lager yeast on bitterness expression avoiding dry-thin-bitter beer And more.

You pull a sample to do a forced diacetyl test, and you wait for it in silence. Something feels not quite right. You reach into the water bath and bring the flask to your nose … And it's a butter bomb. The logistics start running through your head. Do we hold the tank? We have accounts waiting. How many days until it clears? And then you wake up and remember that you use Berkeley Yeast's FRESH™ Chico. It's got ALDC inside every cell, so diacetyl can't even form in the first place. Through primary. Through dry hopping and hop creep. Diacetyl stays ultra-low. So you don't have to add ALDC or wait for diacetyl to clean up. And most importantly, you don't have to wake up in a cold sweat, worrying about scary stories like these. FRESH™ Chico is now available in dried bricks for as low as $88 at berkeleyyeast.com.

This week's episode is another panel discussion recorded live at our Brewers Retreat in the hop country of Yakima, Washington, and features three brewers with decided experience brewing fresh hop beers—Kevin Smith of Bale Breaker, Zach Turner of Single Hill, and Vinnie Cilurzo of Russian River. Through this ranging conversation, the three discuss celebrating the current harvest through the raw flavor of wet hops, how fresh hop brewing started and grew in the U.S., anchoring fresh hop recipes in ways that allow for late changes in varietals, planning for certain hops to arrive at specific times, designing recipes to highlight the flavor contributions of wet hops, managing pH swings, fresh hop addition methods, newer hop varieties like Thora, and much more.

You've heard here on the podcast just how many medal-winning brewers use FRESH™ Chico as their house strain because of how clean and versatile it is.

If you're Stone Brewing making a 30th anniversary IPA could be a daunting task. However in true OG Stone fashion the brewers threw all the hops at it!

What does a Utah craft beer have to do with the LDS Church's lawsuit against Mormon Stories? More than you might think. In this episode, we revisit a previous Mormonish Podcast story about Bewilder Brewing and its Deseret IPA. The brewery was challenged by the LDS church over its use of the name “Deseret,” with trademark concerns ultimately leading to the beer being discontinued. Now, with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints suing Mormon Stories Podcast and John Dehlin, we're taking another look at the Deseret IPA dispute through a new lens. The Church says its Mormon Stories lawsuit is about preventing consumer or brand confusion—arguing that elements of Mormon Stories' branding could lead people to believe the podcast is associated with or endorsed by the Church. Sound familiar? Revisiting what happened to Deseret IPA asks the bigger question: How plausible is “brand confusion” in either case? Could consumers really mistake a craft IPA for a Church product—or Mormon Stories for an official Church podcast? And what do these cases tell us about how aggressively the Church protects its intellectual property and brand? Join us as we revisit Deseret IPA and leave you to consider the striking parallels with the battle now unfolding over Mormon Stories.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

Alberta is one Canadian craft beer scene that we haven't tapped into enough, so we're fixing that right now - we were stoked to sit down with one of the most hyped breweries in Calgary. Production Manager and Head Brewer Donovan Fast leads the liquid for Eighty-Eight Brewing Co., and he joined Cee and Nate to chat about his international craft brewing career that took him from Manitoba to Germany to Alberta, what he learned from the classic German brewers, how he landed the Head Brewer job before Eighty-Eight opened (and has been the sole Head Brewer in their history), how the Calgary craft beer scene has grown over the years, how Eighty-Eight went from a Belgian-style brewery to a more modern, IPA-focused brewery and COVID's effect on that decision, the slew of awards they've won, their core-to-seasonal beer release strategy, his thoughts on Canada-wide distribution and Eighty-Eight's approach, their interprovincial collaborations, how their eighth anniversary went, and the future of the brewery. They got into six absolute bangers from Eighty-Eight: Midnight Downtown Rice Lager, Hammer Pants West Coast Pale Ale, Hi-Fi Hazy IPA, Pop Rocks Fruited Sour with pink guava + berries, Wave Pool Tropical IPA, and Party All The Time Double NEIPA.

Episode 500! It feels surreal to achieve this latest milestone, but in this episode, recorded live at our Brewer's Retreat at Bale Breaker in Yakima, Washington, we talk hazy IPA with three luminaries in the category: Henry Nguyen of Monkish, Sam Zermeño of Brujos, and Kelsey McNair of North Park. Along the way, we discuss everything you'd expect us to discuss: dry hopping at warm temperatures, maintaining haze richness and diversity, understanding oil content and what that means for hazy IPA, achieving the perfect color, haze-positive hops, and so much more.

Yes, at high levels, it's tragically bad. But even at low levels, it masks the good flavors. So if you want hop notes to pop, you need diacetyl to be ultra-low. These brewers trust Berkeley Yeast for an ultra-clean fermentation because on the finals table, every little detail matters.

Who was the greatest man who ever lived? Yeah, okay, Jesus. But who was called "the greatest man" by his enemies? That would be our first president, George Washington, who was declared the greatest man who ever lived by none other than his rival, King George. Why? Pigweed and Crowhill dive into that topic, and explore the amazing life and legacy of George Washington. But first, they drink an IPA inspired by ... Iron Maiden? What do they have to do with beer?

We hope you appreciate our efforts to highlight important parts of American history as we celebrate 250 years of this strange experiment in the American Republic.

Nashua, New Hampshire's Spyglass may not have a unique origin story—engineer friends with a knack for homebrewing started the brewery to focus on the styles they were tired of driving and trading for—but after honing their processes and recipes for the past eight years, and growing into a 20 bbl brewhouse and large-capacity taproom, they've grown more comfortable tackling technical brewing problems on both ends of the spectrum. Whether it's thicker and more saturated hazy DIPA, or lean and light Mexican-style lager, their smart use of malt with some surprisingly large percentages of specialty malt helps them find balance whether the volume is cranked up or dialed down. Cofounder John Wagner and Director of Production Danny Sump join the podcast to discuss their approaches to each, highlighting the beer ¡A Huevo!, which recently scored a 98 in Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine®. In this episode, Wagner and Sump discuss: brewing Mexican-style lager with six row barley and corn using chit malt for better foam in light lager softening lager with extra calcium chloride then sharpening with other ingredients brewing lager without a diacetyl rest coolpooling Mexican-style lager with Saaz hops using 40%+ specialty malt in hazy IPA never bringing hops above 165°F in hazy IPA pushing higher pH underpitching while over-oxygenating for better haze stability And more.

You walk into the brewery, straight to the tank. You pull a sample to do a forced diacetyl test, and you wait for it in silence. Something feels not quite right. You reach into the water bath and bring the flask to your nose … And it's a butter bomb. The logistics start running through your head. Do we hold the tank? We have accounts waiting. How many days until it clears? And then you wake up and remember that you use Berkeley Yeast's FRESH™ Chico. It's got ALDC inside every cell, so diacetyl can't even form in the first place. Through primary. Through dry hopping and hop creep. Diacetyl stays ultra-low. So you don't have to add ALDC or wait for diacetyl to clean up. And most importantly, you don't have to wake up in a cold sweat, worrying about scary stories like these. FRESH™ Chico is now available in dried bricks for as low as $88 at berkeleyyeast.com.

Dave is back from northern Michigan, and reality is terrible. The family cabin—built by a relative generations ago—delivered everything Tulsa could not: low-80s afternoons, cool nights, fires, golf, and a lake smooth enough for water skiing.Dave's three oldest girls all learned to ski, which meant it was time for their seasoned-skier father to show them how it's done. The only problem was the pontoon boat. It had enough power to pull the kids, but not quite enough to launch a grown man from a shallow-water slalom start. After several attempts and several falls in front of his daughters, Dave accepted the indignity of starting on two skis and kicking one off. His father's old rule—“In this family, we don't fall”—was not enforced.The pour is Celestial Hazy IPA from Chainsaw Brewing, an overtly Catholic brewery in Richland, Washington. Adam has the Dominions can; Dave has the Thrones. Same beer, different celestial artwork, 6.5% ABV, and Revelation-level labels covered in angels, eyes, and hops. If you want a good IPA from a Catholic brewer, support Chainsaw Brewing and help them #BeerEvangelize.Sponsor: Select International ToursWhen Adam and Dave decided to lead their first pilgrimage, the same recommendation kept coming back: Select International Tours. Having traveled with them, the guys can attest that they're excellent. Whether you want to lead a pilgrimage or join one, visit selectinternationaltours.com and see where they can take you.Sponsor: The Amen appSunday morning is not exactly easy like Sunday morning when you're trying to load a Catholic family into the van and beat Father down the aisle. The free Amen app helps the guys prepare their children for Mass by listening to the Sunday Gospel on the drive. It also includes Catholic classics like Divine Mercy in My Soul and True Devotion to Mary. No paywall, subscription, or upfront cost. Download the Amen app and help get it from 950,000 downloads to one million.The prayer request is Mary. She recently had surgery to place a G-tube, which should make feeding more comfortable and eliminate the constant gagging caused by the tube in her mouth. The immediate goals are to stabilize her, wean her from oxygen, and help her continue gaining weight so heart surgery can be considered in the coming months. A recent video caught her wide awake, smiling, and full of joy in the middle of a life that has involved more struggle than most. Keep Mary, Lady Haylee, and the whole family in your prayers.The Catholic Man Show Campout is also approaching. Registration should open near the end of August, with the campout taking place during the final weekend of September at Clear Creek Abbey. Brandon Sheard will return for a hands-on animal-butchering class, with foraging and woodworking also planned. Those experiences are valuable, but the heart of the weekend is the opportunity to pray with the Benedictine monks and step into the ordered rhythm of monastic life.Then the guys turn to the theological virtue of hope—the virtue a man in heaven no longer needs and a man in hell can no longer possess. Hope belongs to the man in the middle, the wayfarer who has not yet arrived. That means every one of us.Drawing from St. Thomas Aquinas, they explain the four marks of hope's object: it must be good, future, arduous, and possible. Theological hope is not the same as hoping for good weather or a Cowboys Super Bowl. Natural hope rests on circumstances, probabilities, and human ability. Supernatural hope rests on God's goodness, providence, and promises. Its ultimate object is not a better job, a healed body, or a trouble-free life. Its object is God Himself.That is why hope is “cashed in” when a soul reaches heaven. The good is no longer future; it is possessed. Souls in purgatory still have hope because the happiness they await remains future, arduous, and possible—even though their final destination is certain.Josef Pieper helps identify the two ways a man can abandon the road before reaching its end: despair and presumption. Despair decides the promise will not be fulfilled. Presumption decides the reward is already guaranteed without repentance, conversion, or cooperation with grace. Both seize the verdict before the journey is finished.Presumption is not too much trust in God. It is too little. It imagines a God too small to care about justice, transformation, and whether we become the men He created us to be. Despair makes a similar mistake by deciding that God's mercy may exist in general but cannot reach this sin, this failure, or this man.The deeper question is whether we actually trust God. Will He make us happy, or will surrendering to Him leave us regretting what we gave up? We repeatedly hang the weight of our hope on hooks that cannot bear it: a spouse, career, reputation, new client, new car, food, drink, or entertainment. Those things may be good, but none can carry the full weight of the human heart. Only Christ can do that.St. Francis de Sales brings the discussion into moments of panic, temptation, self-loathing, and spiritual dryness. Devotion is not a feeling of sweetness or consolation. It is a firm and active will to do what pleases God. When anxiety hits, do not make major decisions from agitation. A trapped bird only tightens the net by thrashing. Let the water settle, then move.Self-contempt is not humility either. Anger at yourself can be another form of pride because it still assumes you should have been able to save yourself. The better response to sin is quiet displeasure followed by courageous amendment: “Poor heart, rise up again bravely.” Hope allows a man to admit that he is nothing on his own while remembering the immense dignity God gave him through baptism.Spiritual dryness can also teach. If prayer tastes like nothing, examine what you have been eating. Screens, alcohol, entertainment, comfort, and constant stimulation can train the appetite to find spiritual goods tasteless. Keep praying without demanding an immediate emotional reward. Sometimes hope looks like doing the next faithful thing while feeling nothing at all.Dave shares a moment from adoration when he admitted that he was afraid God would ask him to leave a successful career and live in poverty through full-time ministry. His yes was reluctant, but it was still a yes. The answer he sensed was simple: “I just wanted your yes.” Years later, professional success has brought the same temptation back in a different form—the temptation to believe he can provide for himself and no longer needs to depend on God. Surrender is not something a man completes once. God keeps saying: do it again.The practical path is equally simple. Offer the trial already in front of you. Pray for an increase in hope. Pray the Rosary even when you do not feel like it. Make an act of gratitude when despair begins closing in. And stop demanding that this life provide what only the next life can give.We are on the Lord's team—the winning side. Raise your glass.

Your next patient may already be looking for an optometrist—and choosing someone else before you ever know they existed. On this episode of 20/20 Money: The Business of Optometry, I'm joined by Jeremy Bono, Director of Optometry Marketing Services at IDOC, for a wide-ranging conversation about what effective marketing actually looks like inside an optometry practice. We start with a bigger question: does the public really understand what an optometrist does—and, more importantly, why they should regularly see one? From there, Jeremy and I explore why simply saying that you provide "exceptional eye care" isn't enough to differentiate a practice, how storytelling can make your marketing more memorable, and why practice owners need clarity around their ideal patient before deciding where to spend marketing dollars. We then get much more tactical. Jeremy explains why Google Ads can be one of the fastest ways to generate new patient demand, how practice owners should think about marketing as an investment rather than simply another expense, and why measuring leads without tracking how many actually become patients can create a misleading picture of ROI. We also discuss some of the seemingly small things that can quietly sabotage otherwise good marketing: making patients call instead of allowing online scheduling, forcing them to interact with your practice the way you prefer rather than the way they prefer, ignoring existing patients while constantly chasing new ones, and failing to maintain the digital presence that Google increasingly uses to determine which practices deserve visibility. The larger lesson is that marketing isn't one campaign, one social post, or one advertising budget. It's the entire journey from someone discovering your practice to deciding you're the right place for them—and then making it incredibly easy for them to become a patient and stay one. NBS: Set aside an hour this week and define your ideal patient avatar—your "IPA." Write down who they are, what they value, what problems they're trying to solve, how they search for care, and how they prefer to interact with a business. Then look at your current marketing through their eyes and identify one point of friction you can eliminate.   Have a podcast-related question?

One beer “gave us a vocabulary that includes the word pilsner for a style of beer, the word pilsner for a type of malt, and the word pilsner for a type of glassware,” observes the Prague-based writer Evan Rail. “No other brewery has had that type of impact,” he concludes. He isn't exaggerating. It's hard to argue that any other brewery or beer has had a greater impact on the world than Pilsner Urquell, the subject of this episode of One Iconic Beer. Among the first golden lagers ever made, it would soon spark a wave of imitators that would spread around the world, a legacy we can see in every pub and store that servers beer. How did a brand-new brewery located in a small Bohemian town with no history of making lagers pull off this trick? And what was so special about the original pilsner that has allowed it to flourish for nearly two centuries? We'll hear from Rail, who has written more extensively about Czech beer than any English-language writer, about the breweries origins and its development over decades filled with revolution, war, and turmoil. We also hear from Kamil Ruzek, a brewer who has spent the past 24 years at the brewery. He takes us into the brewery and shows us how things work.Join us for the remarkable story of the world's most influential beer on this episode of One Iconic Beer. Visit AllAboutBeer.com for more podcasts, to read original articles, and to get info on upcoming events.Click here to support independent journalism covering the beer industry.This episode is sponsored by:RahrBSGThis episode of the One Iconic Beer podcast is supported by RahrBSG – trusted supplier to brewers, distillers, and beverage makers across North America.  From the barley field to your brewhouse, we're proud to support the people behind great beer with the ingredients, expertise, and service they depend on.  Whether you're brewing the next great American Double IPA or crafting an award-winning continental lager, RahrbSG provides the industry's finest quality, selection, and support.

TL;DR NOVAH (No Violence At Home) was incubated by Charity Entrepreneurship (now Ambitious Impact) in 2024 to test a promising idea: preventing intimate partner violence through edutainment, in our case a serialised radio drama. Over the past two years we have produced and aired two seasons in Rwanda. We are currently evaluating our second season through a randomized controlled trial with 2,400 couples in Rwanda in partnership with Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA). Preliminary results are expected in October 2026. The end-line analysis is run by IPA and our academic partners, not by NOVAH. Edutainment to prevent intimate partner violence is promising, but it is still young as a field. We do not want to spend donor money scaling it unless the evidence shows it works at least as well as the strongest existing approaches. The RCT is what will tell us that. Therefore, before seeing those results, we want to make our decision rule public: We will scale our programming only if the RCT finds a statistically significant relative reduction of at least 5% in physical or sexual intimate partner violence prevalence. How quickly we proceed will depend on the size and certainty of the effect.

Send us Fan MailA double hazy IPA with an 80s-pink can shouldn't be this smooth, but Grimm Artisanal Ales' Lambo Door (Brooklyn, New York) has us drinking fast and talking even faster. We get into real craft beer tasting notes, why an 8% ABV can still feel dangerously easy, and the truth about paying close to $18 for a four-pack. Then we take a detour through the everyday stuff that somehow always turns into a bigger rant, including gas prices that jump overnight and the feeling that none of it makes sense. Food shows up like it always does, because beer pairing is a lifestyle. We break down a killer gumbo dinner and talk about what changes when you cook it camping-style in a Dutch oven over an open fire. After that, we share a Blackstone griddle idea that's basically built for parties: candied peaches caramelized with butter, brown sugar, and hot honey, layered onto a bruschetta-style bite with pesto, fresh mozzarella, cured ham, jalapeño, and basil from the garden. Sweet, salty, spicy, and ready for your next backyard hang. After the break, we crack Toppling Goliath Brewing Company Caramel Apple Fandango, a fruited sour that drinks like a caramel apple dessert. We debate the finish, rate it honestly, and talk fall beer season strategy, including when to start the pumpkin beers and whether Oktoberfest brews deserve more love. Somewhere in the middle we also play would you rather, attempt “beer math,” and close out with golf plans and NFL preseason hype.

Why do some cultural fads disappear while others hang around long after everyone seems to have moved on?Pigweed and Crowhill drink and review a hazy IPA and ask, “Are we still doing this?” From pronouns in bios, COVID-era leftovers and land acknowledgments to climate alarmism, corporate virtue signaling, Pride Month, recycling and other remnants of the great cultural craziness of the past several years, they run through the ideas and practices they thought would have faded away by now.Every society gets swept up in bad ideas, moral panics and strange enthusiasms. The question is whether we can eventually admit it, laugh at ourselves, and move on. The good news? Pigweed and Crowhill think most of these things are finally trending in the right direction.

On this episode, you'll hear the remarkable story of Bass Pale Ale. This story begins at the dawn of the industrial age, and charts Bass's rise as one of the first global brewing brands. Over the course of two centuries, its pale ales evolved to meet the times, and today we know Bass as one of Britain's classic cask ales—a beer enjoying a current renaissance among the country's pubs. In many ways, in telling the story of Bass, we're recounting the history of brewing in Britain over the past two centuries: its technological and industrial rise, the collapse that befell the giants over the past generation, and, perhaps, an encouraging revival. You'll hear from Harry White, who started at Bass in the research and development department in 1977. He would become Director of Quality Assurance in 1989, and stayed with the company until 2007. Today he is the chairman of the National Brewery Heritage Trust in Burton Upon Trent. You'll also hear from Pete Brown, one of the most celebrated beer writers in the world and the author of over a dozen books, including his most recent, Tasting Notes – The Art and Science of Pairing Beer and Music.It's an amazing brewery and an amazing story, all befitting one of the world's most iconic beers.Visit AllAboutBeer.com for more podcasts, to read original articles, and to get info on upcoming events.Click here to support independent journalism covering the beer industry.This episode is sponsored by:RahrBSGThis episode of the One Iconic Beer podcast is supported by RahrBSG – trusted supplier to brewers, distillers, and beverage makers across North America.  From the barley field to your brewhouse, we're proud to support the people behind great beer with the ingredients, expertise, and service they depend on.  Whether you're brewing the next great American Double IPA or crafting an award-winning continental lager, RahrbSG provides the industry's finest quality, selection, and support.

"How do we continue doing this work when the socio-political realities are unimaginable? I've been living in Paris the last few years, and I continue to have a full caseload in Tehran and other cities. There was a time that the internet was cut off for our Iranian patients, so there is reality, and then there is a reality that actually affects the frame -  they couldn't contact their analyst. But in the middle of all of these things, something very interesting came up, which is, some patients, as soon as there was the possibility of contacting me, they would find a way. There were other things that came up in the supervisions I was doing, particularly if the analysts were outside of Iran and the patients were in Iran. For example, one thing that came up in the supervision was that the analyst would write to the patient all the time, saying, "Are you safe? Are you okay?"  That's not something I chose to do. When we discussed this and reflected upon this in the supervisions I felt like the analysts were feeling quite guilty for feeling that they are in a safe place and the patients weren't, or they were at times terrified of the aggression that could be awaiting them in the session. It was in a sense like a little bit of an acting out on the part of the analyst."  Episode Description: We begin by acknowledging the ongoing war and Gohar's safety in Paris while many of her patients remain in Iran. We explore what this gradient  in danger between analyst and analysand means and evokes for both parties. Gohar notes that many supervisees contact their patients to ask, "Are you OK?" and she invites them to reconsider this response. She also describes working with Russian colleagues, many of whom were abandoned by their Western supervisors after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. This leads to a discussion of analytic work with patients whose political views sharply differ from those of their analysts. Gohar reflects on Jonathan Lear's concept of "radical hope" and shares her perspective on the Woman, Life, Freedom movement. She closes by reminding us that, even with those we regard as 'other,' "our emancipation is inherently intertwined, whether we like it or not."
