They were beloved by Iranian Muslims. But at the height of their fame, they left the country.It has always been a mystery to our host Danielle Dardashti and her sister Galeet – Why did their family leave Iran? Now, in a documentary podcast series, the sisters reveal painful secrets unspoken for generations. The Nightingale of Iran is a story that will resonate with outsiders everywhere.About TPP:Trailer Park: The Podcast Trailer Podcast is hosted by Tim Villegas and Arielle Nissenblatt.

To understand any country's foreign policy you need to understand domestic political dynamics. So what is driving Iranian decision making right now? Negar Mortazavi is a journalist, host of the Iran Podcast and senior fellow at the Center for International Policy. I reached out to her for this interview because it seems that lost in much commentary about the widening crisis in the middle east is a nuanced understanding of what is influencing Iranian policy and decision making. Our conversation focuses on Iranian domestic politics and how that is shaping the regime's response to the Gaza crisis and US strikes against Iran backed groups in the region.

When three American soldiers were killed in a drone attack on a US base in Jordan there was a flurry of talk of World War Three.It may have been over the top, but the stakes in the conflict in the Middle East have risen dramatically, with the US blaming Iran and its proxies for the strike. It's since retaliated by bombing dozens of targets in Iraq and Syria. Today, host of The Iran Podcast, Negar Mortazavi explores what could come next.

Iran is in the midst of the most significant protest movement in years -- and it is being lead by women and girls. The spark that ignited this movement was the murder of 22 year old Mahsa Amini, who had been arrested by Iran's morality police for improperly wearing her headscarf. She was beaten to death in police custody. Protests erupted throughout the country, with women and school aged girls audaciously flaunting laws around dress codes. It is a feminist lead uprising against the ultra-conservative government lead by Ebrahim Raisi and, as some argue, against the Islamic revolutionary system that has governed Iran since 1979. In this episode, we are joined by Negar Mortazavi, an Iranian-American journalist and commentator and host of the Iran Podcast. We discuss how these protests started and then spread to become an intersectional movement. We then have a in-depth conversation about the Iranian government's response and what may come next.
Iran's street is convulsing yet again. The protests and crackdowns -- fueled initially by the death in custody of a young woman -- have since exposed new fault lines both across and within class, commerce...even religious observance. Negar Mortazavi, host of the Iran Podcast, on where this takes the restive nation of 88 million.
Negar Mortazavi and Yousef Munayyer discuss the latest protests in Iran after the killing of Mahsa Amini by the Iranian morality police. Mortazavi is an Iranian-American journalist and the host of the Iran Podcast.

Over the past few weeks, protests in Iran against the compulsory hijab law and the morality police have spread across the country and worldwide, sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini in police custody. But it's not the first time protests against the Islamic Republic's repression of women's rights have erupted. We look at what's different this time and how the current uprising is uniting Iranians from all walks of life. Featuring: Negar Mortazavi, Iranian-American journalist and political analyst, host of the Iran Podcast.

Iran faces growing problems at home and abroad. At home, a building collapse added fuel to the fire of protests that had started over rising food prices. Abroad, the International Atomic Energy Agency's Board of Governors has just condemned the regime's lack of compliance with nuclear safeguards measures. Nuclear negotiations are frozen. Sanctions remain on. Russia's invasion of Ukraine has complicated the Ebrahim Raisi administration's efforts to reorient foreign policy away from the West.
