Episode Details

Is the Iran ceasefire already falling apart?

In this episode, Lisa breaks down the fragile state of the current U.S.–Iran ceasefire and why control of the Strait of Hormuz remains the biggest sticking point. Retired Vice Admiral John “Fozzie” Miller explains how Iranian aggression, maritime threats, and potential mining of key shipping routes could signal a major violation—and what it means for global oil markets and international trade.

We also dive into:

• Why Iran’s decentralized military structure makes regime change so difficult
• The growing role of the IRGC in controlling both conflict and negotiations
• How economic pressure—not just military force—could determine the outcome
• The real risks of prolonged war vs. forced resolution
• Iran’s nuclear capabilities and the global threat of enriched uranium
• What a post-regime Iran could realistically look like

Plus, a behind-the-scenes look at a daring U.S. military rescue mission and what it reveals about American capabilities, leadership decisions, and the “no man left behind” ethos.

If you want a clear-eyed, strategic breakdown of the Iran conflict, ceasefire risks, and what comes next—this is a must-listen.
