Episode Details

In this episode of Decoding America, Reged Ahmad and Jonathan Yerushalmy look at Donald Trump’s war of words with the Pope, that AI image and the blowback it has received - especially when seen through the administration’s painting of the war through a religious lens. They also also examine how the new blockade of the strait of Hormuz will work in practice, the US making such a contradictory move after failed negotiations with Iran, and why the US president and Marco Rubio were at the UFC while it was all going down. Decoding America is a new podcast from Guardian Australia hosted by Reged Ahmad with Jonathan Yerushalmy, Guardian Australia’s US site editor.
