Nader Itayim of Argus Media joins the Oil Ground Up podcast to analyze the unprecedented escalation of the direct conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States and its devastating impact on global energy markets. The discussion explores how Iran has transitioned from decades of "proxy warfare" to what leadership now describes as an "existential war," abandoning its traditional "strategic patience" in favor of lashing out to create maximum economic chaos. Itayim details the severe physical disruptions to the market, revealing that nearly 8 million barrels per day have been shut in across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, and Iraq. A major focus is placed on the strategic maneuvers of Saudi Aramco, which is "sweating its assets" by utilizing the East-West pipeline to bypass the Strait of Hormuz and export crude through the port of Yanbu. Host Rory Johnston and Nader critique the Trump administration's lack of a clear endgame, highlighting the tension between military goals like "sinking the Navy" and the urgent need to prevent a full-scale global economic depression. The conversation delves provides insight into the fragmented leadership within Tehran, where various power centers like the IRGC may be operating independently to target regional refineries and critical infrastructure. But what does an end game to this conflict look like? Rory and Nader question whether the Gulf can ever return to being a "safe neighborhood" after such a profound display of regional instability.

Barry E. “Butch” Wilmore was raised in Tennessee, where an early fascination with aviation, engineering, and disciplined teamwork set the course for his career. He earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in electrical engineering from Tennessee Technological University, along with a master's degree in aviation systems from the University of Tennessee. Before NASA, Wilmore served as a U.S. Navy aviator, test pilot, and squadron officer, accumulating more than 8,000 flight hours and 663 carrier landings in tactical jet aircraft. Wilmore flew A-7E and F/A-18 aircraft during four operational deployments aboard the USS Forrestal, Kennedy, Enterprise, and Eisenhower. He completed 21 combat missions during Operation Desert Storm and also flew in support of Desert Shield, Southern Watch, and NATO operations over Bosnia. A graduate of the U.S. Naval Test Pilot School, he contributed to the early development and carrier certification of the T-45 jet trainer, experience that proved critical to his later astronaut duties. Selected as a NASA astronaut in 2000, Wilmore flew three space missions totaling 464 days in space. He piloted STS-129 aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis in 2009, delivering critical hardware to the ISS. In 2014–2015, he launched aboard a Russian Soyuz as part of Expedition 41, later assuming command of Expedition 42, spending 167 days in orbit and conducting four spacewalks. Most recently, he commanded Boeing Starliner's first crewed flight in 2024; following an uncrewed return decision, he completed a long-duration ISS mission and returned to Earth in March 2025 aboard SpaceX Crew-9. Wilmore retired from NASA in July 2025 after 25 years with the agency, one of the few astronauts to fly aboard the Space Shuttle, Soyuz, Starliner, and Crew Dragon. He is married to Deanna, with whom he has two daughters, and is known for steady leadership, deep technical skill, faith, and continued commitment to mentorship and STEM outreach.

1897 ENTRY OF THE KING OF PERSIAThe following individuals joined the discussion to analyze the current geopolitical and economic landscape: (1)*   Gordon Chang, Columnist and co-host *   Peter Huessy, President of Geostrategic Analysis and Fellow at the National Institute for Deterrent Studies *   Alan Tonelson, Manufacturing and trade expert who blogs at *Reality Check* *   Rebecca Grant, Vice President of the Lexington Institute (2)### Summary of Geopolitical Instability and Global Consequences (3)Global Economic "Tsunami" and Resource Shortages The potential closure or instability of the Strait of Hormuz poses a threat far beyond the price of oil, described by participants as a looming economic "tsunami". Critical shortages are building for products like fertilizer (urea), sulfur, and petroleum products used in high-end manufacturing. Sulfur is particularly vital as it is required to process the copper used in semiconductors and high-end electronics. While the U.S. may be self-sufficient in fertilizer, the heavy technology-dependent economies of East Asia, including Taiwan, face significant risks to their semiconductor production if these supply chains are severed. Recent reports indicate this threat is immediate, with three cargo ships, including a bulk carrier from Bangkok, recently hit by projectiles in the Strait. (4)China as a Hostile Trade Partner and Provocateur China is characterized as a "hostile trade partner" and an "enemy combatant" that wages proxy wars through Russia in Ukraine and Iran in the Middle East. Experts note that Iran's military capabilities are heavily supported by China, which provides supersonic missiles and the semiconductors found in Iranian drones. Furthermore, Iran's nuclear program is described as a subset of the North Korean program, which was historically promoted by China to keep the U.S. pinned down. Domestically, China continues to ignore promises to stop the flow of fentanyl precursors, with participants noting that leader Xi Jinping has now "dishonored" four such promises to U.S. presidents. (5)U.S. Navy Operational Limits The U.S. Navy is currently facing significant strain, described as being "tightly squeezed" regarding its aircraft carrier fleet. The USS Gerald R. Ford has seen its deployment extended to 11 months, performing continuous combat operations in the Mediterranean and Caribbean. Similarly, the USS Nimitz, which was scheduled for decommissioning, has had its service extended to participate in Southern Command exercises. Although these carriers possess "layered defense" systems capable of neutralizing Chinese supersonic missiles and drones, the Navy lacks a sufficient number of ships to maintain these global commitments indefinitely; while law requires 11 carriers, experts argue the current global challenge requires 15. (6)The "Brothers of Mayhem" Alliance The participants argue that China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea act as a coordinated group of "brothers of mayhem". This alliance is not merely fighting over territory or reputation but is engaged in a fundamental contest over "what kind of world we're going to live in". While the West seeks to maintain the status quo and open trade routes, this opposing bloc utilizes economic warfare, proxy conflicts, and the threat of nuclear escalation—such as China's hinted "first-strike" nuclear posture—to challenge Western hegemony.

One of Aaron Van Lieu's first memories is playing on a real fighter jet in San Francisco's Carl Larsen Park. Located on 19th Avenue at Vicente Street, the jet was a delight to neighborhood children for decades. But towards the end of its residency in the park, the plane began to deteriorate. Aaron wants to know what happened to it.

PREVIEW FOR LATER. Rebecca Grant emphasizes the urgent need to accelerate U.S. Navy carrier construction. Despite legal requirements for eleven carriers, current projections suggest a decline, leaving the fleet overstretched against global threats from China. (3)1942 LEXINGTON

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they watch lefty businesses and business owners flee blue states for red states, oil tanker traffic grinding to a trickle in the Persian Gulf, and CPAC still welcoming the likes of Steve Bannon.First, they react to the news that Starbucks is moving part of its corporate headquarters to Tennessee, a state with no income tax, and hinting that more of its corporate structure could follow. The coffee giant is currently based in Washington state, which just approved a major tax hike on higher-income households. The blue state economic fantasy runs into reality yet again.Next, they're frustrated by Iran's ongoing ability to stop most oil tankers from exiting the Persian Gulf. Jim explains how Iran is able to harass so many vessels despite its navy being so badly depleted and what the U.S. Navy can do to counteract Iran.Finally, they groan over the news that CPAC has invited Steve Bannon to speak at its conference later this month. The controversy follows revelations that Bannon conducted a multi-part interview with Jeffrey Epstein and appeared to be trying to rehabilitate Epstein's public image,Please visit our great sponsors:Unlock your healthiest skin by targeting visible aging signs at https://Oneskin.co/3ML with code 3ML for 15% off.Make this the season where no opportunity or customer slips away with Quo.

In the months following World War II, Antarctica drew the attention of one of the most ambitious polar expeditions in history: Operation Highjump, led by Admiral Richard E. Byrd in 1946–47. Officially, the mission was straightforward…a massive naval operation to train personnel, test new equipment in extreme polar conditions, and establish research outposts. The U.S. Navy deployed thousands of personnel, dozens of ships, and a fleet of aircraft to navigate the treacherous ice.  But as often happens in isolated, secretive places, reality and rumour quickly intertwined. Almost immediately after the expedition, extraordinary stories began to circulate. Some claimed that Byrd's reconnaissance flights revealed not endless ice, but vast stretches of greenery, lakes, and even herds of prehistoric creatures…creatures reminiscent of mammoths, wandering in isolated valleys hidden from human eyes.  Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

A 20 year Navy veteran explains how “doing hard things” builds resilience, leadership, and purpose after military service.Episode DescriptionWhat happens after the mission ends?After twenty years in the U.S. Navy, Shaun Bemis faced the same challenge many veterans do. Rebuilding purpose, translating military skills into the civilian world, and finding the next mountain worth climbing.In this conversation, Kevin McNulty and Shaun explore what it really takes to navigate the transition from military life to business leadership, why deliberately seeking hard challenges builds resilience, and how small daily progress can move anyone forward.Shaun shares lessons from combat deployments, Navy SEAL screening, endurance racing, and executive leadership. From intelligence analysis to global business strategy, he explains how the same mindset that works in high stakes environments can also drive success in life and work.This episode is about resilience, leadership, and the discipline of putting one foot in front of the other when the path ahead is uncertain.In this conversation• Why Shaun believes in deliberately doing hard things• Translating military skills into civilian success• The mindset that helped scale a company from 15 to 60 countries• How endurance racing builds mental toughness• The leadership power of asking better questions• What Navy SEAL training teaches about mastery and fundamentals• The “Left Foot, Right Foot” philosophy for overcoming obstaclesConnect with Shaun BemisLinkedIn: @shaunbemisInstagram: @shaunbrunningConnect with Kevin McNultyX @kevinspeaks2uLinkedIn @kevinmcnultyspeaksFacebook @kevinrichardmcnultyInstagram @kevinmcnultyspeaksLinkTree https://linktr.ee/kevinmcnultyHashtags#GrowYourself #VeteranTransition #MilitaryToCivilian #PersonalGrowth #Leadership #Resilience #PurposeAfterService #NavyVeteran #FractionalCOO #TeamRWB #LifeTransition #DoHardThings #KevinMcNulty #ShaunBemis

Longevity science is shifting fast. New discoveries are revealing that aging may be influenced not just by genetics or lifestyle, but by specific nutrients that regulate cellular health. In this episode of Habits & Hustle, I sit down with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson to explore the discovery of C15, a fatty acid that emerged from decades of research studying Navy dolphins. Her work suggests that declining C15 levels may weaken cell membranes, accelerate aging, and increase vulnerability to metabolic disease. We break down how this molecule works, why not all saturated fats are the same, and how modern dietary shifts away from full-fat dairy may be contributing to widespread nutrient deficiencies. We also discuss how C15 interacts with longevity pathways like AMPK and mTOR, the same pathways targeted by drugs like metformin and rapamycin, and why researchers believe C15 may function as a geroprotector — a compound capable of slowing biological aging. Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson is a veterinary epidemiologist, CEO of Seraphina Therapeutics, and author of The Longevity Nutrient. Her work bridges marine biology, epidemiology, and human longevity science to uncover how nutrition influences cellular aging.

In October 1943, something allegedly happened in the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard that the U.S. government has spent decades denying… and conspiracy theorists have spent decades obsessing over. According to the legend, the U.S. Navy attempted to make the USS Eldridge invisible using powerful electromagnetic fields. Sounds cool, right? Until witnesses claimed the ship didn't just disappear from radar — it vanished completely. Some say it teleported hundreds of miles away to Norfolk, Virginia… and then snapped back. But the real nightmare stories came from the crew. Sailors allegedly fused into the metal hull of the ship. Others caught on fire. Some went insane. A few reportedly phased in and out of reality for the rest of their lives. Was this a secret wartime cloaking experiment? Early research into unified field theory inspired by Einstein? Or is the entire story the result of one extremely creative guy sending bizarre letters about invisible ships and dimensional portals? This week we dive deep into one of the strangest military conspiracies ever told. From electromagnetic madness and time travel theories to Project Rainbow, Montauk connections, and the weird rabbit hole that links it all together. If even half of this story is true… the government may have accidentally ripped a hole in reality. And if it's not true… then someone told one of the greatest conspiracy stories ever invented. Either way, it's a wild ride. Ad Support This episode is brought to you by Lucy, the nicotine pouch that actually does things differently.

In this episode, Mary Sullivan, co-founder of Sweet but Fearless, talks with Chanda Coston, Personal PMP and Success Strategist, about how women over 40 can build businesses by leveraging the experiences they've gathered over time. With a background that spans the U.S. Navy and corporate America, Chanda explains how every role, challenge, and lesson becomes part of what she calls a "shoebox of experiences" that can be used to create new opportunities. In this conversation, Chanda challenges the pressure of hustle culture and encourages women to be smarter about how they spend their time. Instead of trying to do everything at once, she suggests breaking life into seasons and designing your schedule around the goals that matter most in the season you're in. Chanda also emphasizes the importance of making the outcome non-negotiable. By building a practical action plan and approaching goals with intention and strategy, women can move their businesses forward in a way that is proactive, focused, and sustainable. This episode is a reminder that experience is powerful, time is valuable, and the next chapter of business can be built with purpose.   ABOUT CHANDA COSTON: LinkedIn – Chanda Coston Website – Chanda Co.

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin are back to fight Trump chaos with their chaos. Like a lot of people right now floating outside Tehran and Basra, Singer-songwriter Country Joe McDonald was an enlisted Navy sailor. Like a lot of people right now, he gave an F-U-C-K about what we were doing, and now, sadly, whoopee, we are gonna do it again. The guy who cares the least about what we are fighting for is Donald K. Trump, as both problems and solutions make him equally angry. At least no new pronunciation guides will be needed for Iran's leadership, nor will anyone need to adjust their governance or diplomacy theories. Not that the US is expected to take into consideration… anything. We'll just commit our war crimes and be shocked when Iran commits theirs. Thousands are stranded in the area unless they're mogging with sufficient rizz... Polling indicates that Trump could neither mog nor rizz himself out of a paper bag. James Talarico can, however, and at almost Mamdaniesque levels… plus, James has JESUS. Take that MAGA! Trump should consider a nice track suit to match his hat the next time he attends the transfer of killed US service members. Ok, the DHS kidnaps, tortures, and kills a few people, but they'd never get in the way of spring break.  The President feels their pain but refuses to sign any bill until Congress passes his anti-voting anti-trans act and gives him three scoops of ice cream. A woman born in the US has her immigration status put under review. She-Wolf of the DOJ, Pam Bondi announces that state bar associations can't investigate misconduct by lawyers but hasn't figured out a way to keep Congress from investigating her misconduct. Meanwhile, this administration still holds a grudge for Cassidy Hutchinson and if they can't lock anyone else up, she might have to do.

Damon, Damo, and Aaron are joined by CDR Charles Ferguson. CDR Ferguson is an active duty Navy Chaplain and the author of the book Presidential Seclusion. The episode begins with the hosts sharing their thoughts about recording the podcast during Operation Epic Fury. They discuss how the conflict could affect their respective jobs even though they are not currently stationed on ships, and reflect on where they were when they first heard the news. The team also takes time to honor the lost and missing servicemembers, recognizing them as this episode's Heroes of the Week. Damon stresses the importance of having real conversations with Sailors. Damo raises questions about public trust and whether social media is truly a real place for meaningful dialogue. Aaron highlights the responsibility that comes with sharing opinions in public spaces. The conversation then turns to the Navy's growing appreciation for the Chaplain Corps. The group explores whether connection to a community can serve as a deterrent to suicide-related behaviors, and how COVID impacted interpersonal relationships across the force. They also discuss the CREDO program and whether enough Sailors are taking advantage of the opportunity. CDR Ferguson shares what led him to become a Navy Chaplain and discusses the importance of mental health within today's force. He also talks about his book, Presidential Seclusion: The Power of Camp David, explaining how his time serving as the Chaplain at Camp David inspired him to write it. During the discussion, he reflects on the writing and release process and shares the experience of delivering a sermon to a sitting President. The conversation continues with reflections on whether the military is becoming “too soft” or simply more professional. CDR Ferguson discusses why he joined the Navy, why Singapore was his favorite tour, and what it means to be endorsed by a faith group. The group also explores the unique relationship between Chaplains and Religious Program Specialists. The episode closes with the hosts sharing their #DoBetter inputs before Charles discusses his retirement plans and the legacy he hopes to leave behind. He also reminisces on the toughest moment of his career. These topics and more are covered in this episode.   Do you have a “Do Better” that you want us to review on a future episode?

This episode of Transition Drill Podcast explores the long road from uncertainty to elite service for veterans and first responders navigating identity, leadership, and life after high-stakes careers.Retired Navy SEAL Chief David Swarts shares the realities of becoming a SEAL, the cost of leadership during wartime deployments, and what it takes to rebuild purpose after the job changes you.David Swarts grew up outside Cleveland, Ohio, in a working class household shaped by divorce, independence, and a lot of self-direction. College wasn't on his radar. Cars, restaurant work, and construction jobs were. But the environment around him began pulling people toward drugs and trouble, and he knew he needed a way out.That decision led him into the Navy in 1999, where he initially served as an aircraft mechanic attached to a carrier air wing. While working in naval aviation and deploying at sea, the desire to become a SEAL never left him. After completing his initial service commitment, he earned the opportunity to attend BUD/S and entered training during the height of the post-9/11 operational tempo.Swarts describes the intensity of that pipeline, including surviving Hell Week, setbacks in second phase, and the long road through advanced training. After graduating and completing the Special Forces (18 Delta) medic course, he reported to SEAL Team 10 during the most active years of the war in Iraq. He also served with Teams 2 and 5.From combat deployments in places like Fallujah and Afghanistan, to leadership roles within platoons, and an assignment to TRADET, Swarts experienced the relentless cycle of training, deployment, and responsibility that defines life in the teams. He reflects on mentorship, the culture of young SEAL platoons, and how leadership evolves from being one of the guys to becoming responsible for the team.The conversation also explores moments that reshaped his perspective. Becoming a father while deploying. Navigating the pressure of leadership as an LPO. And dealing with accusations of war crimes, twice, and investigations that followed combat operations overseas.Through it all, Swarts offers a candid look at growth inside the SEAL teams, the mistakes that shape him, as well as leaders, and the realities that come with dedicating your life to service.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comSPONSORS:GRND CollectiveGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://thegrndcollective.com/Promo Code: TRANSITION15Blue Line RoastingGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://bluelineroasting.comPromocode: Transition10Frontline OpticsGet 10% off your purchaseLink: https://frontlineoptics.comPromocode: Transition10

In this episode of Vee the People, Vee sits down with her dad, Blaze Bocian, for a conversation that dives into his remarkable life experiences — from military service to family life and the lessons learned along the way. Blaze shares stories from his time in the U.S. Navy, including what it was really like living and working aboard a submarine and going through the demanding nuclear power program. He reflects on the discipline, responsibility, and teamwork required in such a high-stakes environment, and how those experiences shaped the way he approaches life today. Growing up as the seventh of nine children, Blaze also talks about the unique dynamics of a big family — the values, resilience, and perspective that come from being part of something bigger than yourself. And after more than 30 years of marriage, he opens up about the wisdom he's gained about commitment, partnership, and what truly matters over the long haul. It's a thoughtful and personal episode about service, family, perseverance, and the life lessons that come from decades of experience — only on Vee the People.

A deadly crash has shutdown lanes of the I-805 northbound lanes in University City this morning for an unknown amount of time. Plus, the new U.S. Navy ship just christened here in San Diego. And, a warning for new Jeep owners on why they are being targeted for theft. NBC 7's Dana Williams has these stories and more, including meteorologist Brooke Martell's forecast for Sunday, March 8, 2026.

The interview features Ron Olmsted, a retired Navy veteran and veteran outreach coordinator with AltaPointe, discussing a new veteran-led support program aimed at helping veterans in the community. The program focuses on building trust by connecting veterans with other veterans who understand their experiences, helping them access mental health care, benefits, housing assistance, and other resources. Olmsted explains that many veterans struggle to ask for help and often face challenges navigating civilian systems or VA paperwork. The initiative also aims to address issues such as suicide, substance abuse, and lack of support networks by creating a welcoming community and providing weekly online support groups.

In this episode, Dale and Christophe break down the U.S. Navy's role in Operation Epic Fury — the massive American military campaign launched against Iran on February 28, 2026. From the decades of tension that set the stage, to the opening Tomahawk salvo, the systematic destruction of the Iranian Navy, and the debut of revolutionary new drone technology, this episode covers the full naval picture of one of the most significant military operations in a generation.Note: Everything discussed in this episode reflects what has been publicly reported as of early March 2026. Details may be updated or corrected as more information becomes available. Some cost figures are modeled estimates from think tanks, not confirmed Pentagon data. Operational details — including submarine deployments, munitions counts, and targeting specifics — reflect only what officials have chosen to disclose publicly.The episode opens with the 45-year history of U.S.-Iran tensions that made Operation Epic Fury inevitable — from the 1979 hostage crisis, to the IRGC's systematic harassment of commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, to the 2019 tanker attacks, to Operation Midnight Hammer in June 2025, when the U.S. struck Iran's nuclear facilities using B-2 stealth bombers and submarine-launched Tomahawks.From there, Dale and Christophe walk through the full naval order of battle assembled for Epic Fury — the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike groups, fourteen Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, three littoral combat ships, and an undisclosed number of submarines operating across the Arabian Sea, the Persian Gulf, and the eastern Mediterranean — and explain why the geographic positioning of each asset was as strategic as the assets themselves.The episode then dives into the opening Tomahawk campaign, the systematic destruction of the Iranian Navy — including the first sinking of an enemy vessel by U.S. torpedo since World War II — and Iran's massive retaliatory barrage of 500+ ballistic missiles and 2,000+ drones in the first four days of the war. Dale and Christoph examine how the Navy's Aegis missile defense systems held the line, and why the sustainability of interceptor stockpiles is one of the most pressing strategic questions hanging over the operation.The second half of the episode covers the combat debut of LUCAS — the $35,000 drone reverse-engineered from Iran's own Shahed-136 — and the critical but largely invisible role of the EA-18G Growler in clearing the electronic path over Iranian airspace. The episode closes with a hard look at the economics of the operation, the shift to Phase 2 targeting Iran's missile production industrial base, and what Operation Epic Fury reveals about the future of American sea power — including the vulnerabilities it has exposed along the way.Email us at usnavyhistorypodcast@gmail.com, find us on X at @USNHistoryPod, and join the conversation on our Discord server — https://discord.gg/bJ9Q5vXE.

Peace Through Strength, America's Navy with LCDR Steve Rogers USN (Ret) – When President Trump assumed office, he commissioned a review of the United States' policy towards Iran because Iran continued to finance terrorist organizations worldwide and destabilize the Middle East, mostly through the aggressive actions of the Iranian Navy. Let us look at some facts forgotten by many of...

First, John welcomes Arizona Democratic senator, retired U.S. Navy captain, and former combat pilot Mark Kelly to discuss the Trump administration's shifting rationales for, and the huge strategic risks of, the war in Iran. Then John's Puck partners Leigh Ann Caldwell and Abby Livingston assess the domestic political reaction to the unfolding conflict, plus the results of Tuesday's Senate primaries in Texas and Kristi Noem's travails on Capitol Hill ahead of her ouster as DHS secretary.

In this Box of Oddities bonus episode, “Freak Family Favorites,” Kat and Jethro dive into a wildly entertaining mix of listener mail, strange history, and bizarre real-world oddities that prove the world is far stranger than fiction. From mysterious rogue waves that can tower over ships to the bizarre story of the Great LEGO Spill of 1997, this episode explores the unpredictable forces of nature and the unexpected ways their effects ripple across the planet. You'll hear how a massive rogue wave struck the cargo ship Tokyo Express, sending millions of LEGO pieces into the ocean, where they've been washing up on beaches around the world for decades—turning into an accidental global science experiment tracking ocean currents and plastic pollution. But that's just the beginning. Kat and Jethro also explore the strange corners of history, including a jaw-dropping act of subtle protest during the World War II tribunal of Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo, when a Navy dental technician secretly engraved the phrase “Remember Pearl Harbor” in Morse code inside the dictator's dentures. Along the way, the Freak Family joins the conversation with unforgettable listener stories—like the uncanny moment when a podcast fact about the largest living organism on Earth (a massive mushroom) suddenly appeared on the side of a passing truck, or the tale of a rescued goat that accidentally ended up named after Kat. And because no Box of Oddities episode would be complete without a dive into humanity's wonderfully strange customs, Kat shares some of the most unusual wedding traditions from around the world—from couples being covered in spoiled food in Scotland to ceremonial arrow-shooting in China and even brides marrying trees to break ancient astrological curses. This bonus episode is packed with weird history, strange science, global traditions, and the delightfully bizarre stories that make the Freak Family one of the most unique podcast communities on Earth. If you love mysteries, curiosities, paranormal-adjacent history, and the wonderfully weird, this episode is your backstage pass to the strange world inside The Box of Oddities.

“The U.S. went to war in Iran because Iran made itself a Chinese weapon,” argues policy analyst Zineb Riboua, a research fellow at Hudson Institute's Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East.Riboua is the founder of the “China in MENA Project,” which tracks communist Chinese expansion and influence across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).Is there a bigger dimension to the Iran war that people are missing?“We have this tendency to just look at the countries involved ... but there's a big player, and the big player here is China,” she says. “China has been investing immensely in the region in the last two decades, in courting, in coordinating, in cooperating with Gulf countries, with Iran itself, and also with its proxies.”And why, I ask her, has China been so keen on gaining strategic influence over the Middle East?It's because the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) understands that “China cannot rise without having the United States weakened in one of the most important regions in the world,” she said.“Iran has been that tool. China has built Iran's military arsenal. It has collaborated extensively with Iran's proxies, especially the Houthis.“And reversing that calculus is what Operation Epic Fury is doing.”In our interview, we delve deep into the symbiotic relationship between the two countries—why China needs Iran and why Iran needs China:Which role does Iran play on China's geopolitical chessboard?Why did China turn Iran into one of its strategic allies, and how did the Islamic Republic benefit?How dependent is the Iranian regime on China's military support and surveillance infrastructure?How dependent is China on Iran's oil?The goal of America's military operation, Riboua believes, is to dismantle the whole structure of the Islamic Republic. “The United States is destroying ... every single launcher, every single missile facility. Their whole Navy has been absolutely crushed. ... It's 2,000 targets so far, and they're hitting even more.”We also discuss what the Chinese regime will do if the Islamic Republic disappears.How will its geopolitical strategy be impacted? What will happen to the CCP's Belt and Road initiative, in which Iran played a central role? And how will China's economy and its relationships with its Middle Eastern and North African proxies be affected?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

The Draft Room dives deep into the 2026 NFL Combine's offensive prospects using Kevin Cole's Unexpected Points modeling — and the gap between what teams value and what actually predicts NFL success is massive. Ryan breaks down running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, offensive tackles, and interior linemen to find the combine winners, the overrated darlings, and the hidden gems that draft boards are getting wrong. Running Backs: Mike Washington Jr. and Jeremiah Love dominate both team value and actual value metrics, but Love carries a 20-point overvaluation gap — and zero-star Navy product Eli Heidenreich emerges as the most undervalued back, a WR/RB hybrid with elite PFF grades and a compelling character profile Wide Receivers: Jeff Caldwell is in a class by himself at 99.9th percentile across the board, while Colby Young — the big-bodied Georgia X-receiver — shows up as undervalued despite significant off-field concerns that will complicate his draft stock Tight Ends: A position loaded with overrated combine performers; Miles Kitzelman out of Tennessee stands out as the most undervalued, though his modest production and modest PFF blocking grades raise legitimate questions Offensive Line: Human skyscraper Mark Bell (6'9", 346 lbs) out of Miami is the most underrated tackle in the class, while Kansas State's Sam Hecht — zero sacks allowed in 850 career pass-blocking reps — may be the steal of the entire offensive line group Don't sleep on these prospects, Pac Nation.

War in Iran continues — and the fellas are not holding back. Does Iran have a Navy or just expensive toys? And why do Democrats suddenly sound like they don't know what they believe? Josh Holmes, Comfortably Smug, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook jump straight into the politics of war. The fellas break down what the Iran operation signals about American power, why the isolationist panic might be missing the point, and how the left keeps getting the messaging wrong. From Chuck Schumer confusion to House Democrat word salads, it's a masterclass in political incoherence. Then it's off to Texas — where John Cornyn shocks the field, Ken Paxton gears up for a runoff, and Jasmine Crockett flames out in spectacular fashion. What does it mean for 2026? Who's up? Who's cooked? Special Guest: NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman

Boca del Infierno, Puerto RicoMarch 5, 1825Three nations set a trap at the Mouth of Hell, and the Caribbean's most wanted pirate sailed right into it. Roberto Cofresí was the son of an Austrian nobleman who'd fled a murder charge and a Puerto Rican mother from one of the island's founding families. Noble blood, empty pockets. When colonial Puerto Rico collapsed around him, Cofresí took to the sea with a fast sloop and a crew of men who had nothing left to lose. He robbed merchant vessels from six nations, attacked a U.S. Navy warship, and became a folk hero to the poor criollos of the coast. It took an alliance of Spain, the United States, and Denmark to bring him down. Twenty-four days after his capture, a firing squad at El Morro ended the pirate. The legend was just getting started.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-historian--2909311/support.You can pay more if you want to, but rent at the Safe House is still just a buck a week, and you can get access to over 400 ad-free episodes from the dusty vault, Safe House Exclusives, direct access to the Boss, and whatever personal services you require.We invite you to our other PULPULAR MEDIA podcasts:If disaster is more your jam, check out CATASTROPHIC CALAMITIES, telling the stories of famous and forgotten tragedies of the 19th and 20th centuries. What could go wrong?

President Trump dismisses claims Israel "forced" U.S. involvement, emphasizing his belief Iran would attack first and Rubio clarifying preemptive timing to minimize casualties. A British F-35 scores its first combat kill downing an Iranian drone over Jordan; Spain refuses base access, prompting Trump threats of trade cutoff. Lloyd's of London halts Gulf shipping insurance, leading Trump to direct U.S. government coverage and Navy escorts. Texas primaries head to runoffs including Cornyn-Paxton Senate and Roy-Middleton AG races.
