Episode Details
Back to EpisodesIran, Empire, and the Blowback Cycle
Description
Iran, U.S. foreign policy, war, empire, and blowback take center stage in this special episode of The Tao of Lloyd. Breaking from the show’s usual one-chapter-at-a-time Tao Te Ching format, Lloyd traces the machinery of propaganda, American intervention in Iran, Trump-era spectacle, and the spiritual cost of living inside empire. Anti-war commentary, satire, political critique, and philosophy for people trying to stay human while power markets destruction as peace.
