      <title>Netanyahu&apos;s &quot;Other&quot; Occupation in Lebanon + Trump Takes on the Pope</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week Seena and Travis dig into the “other” war Israel is waging in Lebanon. They question Netanyahu’s tactics and wonder where they will lead: another failed state, a “new” Hezbollah? Whatever the case, over a million Lebanese have already been displaced, thousands have been killed, and the ceasefire clock is ticking. In more ridiculous news, Trump took a swing at the Pope– who proved to be lighter on his feet than anticipated, things are looking even bleaker for Kash Patel at the FBI, and JD gets heckled. Silver linings do exist!</p>

      <title>Gissou Nia on Iran: Is There Hope in a Hopeless Place?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week Seena and Travis welcome human rights lawyer and advocate Gissou Nia to explain why she’s more hopeful than most that the Iranian regime will eventually be overthrown. They discuss why issues of human rights always end up taking a backseat and what the world, and us as individuals, can do to help the Iranian people. They also delight in JD Vance’s latest international face plant. Thank goodness that never gets old. 🙃</p>

      <title>Why Iran Is Winning the War + JD Solves Daycare!</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>**recorded on 4/8 when the ceasefire was still tentative but holding**</p>
<p>This week the crew reacts to the “deadline” and the “ceasefire” and explains why both need air quotes. Seena works out some white board magic to show exactly how much Iran has gained since Trump and Bibi began their war– an unquestionable success, yes, but for the wrong side. They also look into wtf JD is doing in Hungary, celebrate Artemis II, and rejoice that Trump and JD have finally solved our childcare crisis. With a solution that simple it’s a wonder it’s taken this long. 😑</p>

      <itunes:summary>**recorded on 4/8 when the ceasefire was still tentative but holding**

This week the crew reacts to the “deadline” and the “ceasefire” and explains why both need air quotes. Seena works out some white board magic to show exactly how much Iran has gained since Trump and Bibi began their war– an unquestionable success, yes, but for the wrong side. They also look into wtf JD is doing in Hungary, celebrate Artemis II, and rejoice that Trump and JD have finally solved our childcare crisis. With a solution that simple it’s a wonder it’s taken this long. 😑</itunes:summary>

      <title>Danny Bedrosian on the Armenian Genocide</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>P-Funk member, historian, and author Danny Bedrosian joins the show this week to contextualize the story of the Armenian Genocide– what led to it, how it was rationalized at the time, and why no one talks about it today. We discuss how it resonates with recent events and debate what people and countries can and should do to help preempt genocide in the future. We also talk about why politicians (like chickenshit JD) are so scared to name it.</p>

      <title>ALL CAPS Diplomacy, Conflicting Objectives in Iran, and Reza Pahlavi with Kaveh Shahrooz</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week is all about objectives: what does Israel want? What does Trump want? Why did Travis shave his beard?! We talk with lawyer and civil rights activist Kaveh Shahrooz about Trump’s last claims of cooperation with the “totally new” regime and why we should all be leery (or maybe terrified) of Reza Pahlavi. We round everything out with an uplifting look at how JD is telling truth to power. Ha! JK, as if.</p>

      <title>US/Israel War with Iran: Neverending Objectives and No Clear End in Sight</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The U.S. is bombing Iran with shifting goals, a new hardline supreme leader, acid rain over Tehran, and a War Powers vote that just failed in Congress, and nobody in charge seems to know what winning actually looks like. Seena and Travis break down the moving target of war objectives, profile Iran's new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei, and trace the growing fractures inside MAGA over a war Trump swore he'd never start. This is the episode that connects the dots between a rudderless military campaign and the domestic political fallout nobody's fully reckoning with yet.</p>

If you want to understand what&apos;s really at stake, for Iran, for global oil markets, and for the guy paying $5 at the pump in Pittsburgh, this is the episode.</itunes:summary>

Confidence is not high over here at TFR but we did get to celebrate a Federal Judge’s order that calls Kristi Noem a racist. As far as wins go these days, we’ll take it.</itunes:summary>
      <itunes:subtitle>Jam packed show today! Seena &amp; Travis break in the new studio by talking through what’s been happening in Gaza since the so-called ceasefire. They investigate the gray areas in the multi-step, many layered “peace plan” that has allowed for over 500 Palestinian deaths since it was initiated. They also take a look at Steve Witkoff&apos;s very full dance card– meeting with Russians, then Netanyahu, then Russians and Ukrainians, then Iran. Confidence is not high over here at TFR but we did get to celebrate a Federal Judge’s order that calls Kristi Noem a racist. As far as wins go these days, we’ll take it.</itunes:subtitle>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week we welcome Travis back to the studio(!!) and talk through the nightmare that is unfolding in Minneapolis. How dumb do they think we are? What should Dems do? Will abolishing ICE do anything? We also dive into the US’s options for intervention in Iran. What are they exactly? What does it mean for Trump to promise help and then watch as thousands are killed. Considering our pitiful track record, should we intervene at all?

      <title>Mass Shootings + 2026 Predictions: How Much Worse Can It Get?!</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week on TFR we talk through the horrors of the Bondi Beach and Brown University shootings and the murder of the great Rob Reiner.

There's also word that the RSF has agreed to a ceasefire...JFC**  </p><p>This week as Seena and Travis celebrate much-needed wins for the Dems, send off Dick Cheney, our political Darth Vader, with a too-many-to-be-brief list of his top “accomplishments,” and wrestle with the ick factor of agreeing with Nick Fuentes about JD Vance.

      <title>Starvation in Gaza, Elections in Japan, and JD’s Looking for Aliens</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week Seena and Travis take a look at Gaza and the stated Israeli strategy of occupation and “voluntary migration.” Seena remembers the Eggshell Plaintiff from his law school days and explains why a recent NYT correction about starving Palestinian children was misguided at best.

      <itunes:summary>This week, Seena and Travis bring back Corey Brettschneider to discuss the recently completed Supreme Court term, focusing primarily on the birthright citizenship/universal injunction case and two cases dealing with religion in schools.

      <title>Marcus Parks on Trump Unmasking America and the Great (?) Middle East Realignment</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>This week we had to bring Marcus Parks back to help us wrap our brains around the unthinkable. Could Trump’s upsetting of the Middle East apple cart, reordering alliances, and embracing autocracies somehow be a good thing? We run through the litany of deals made since the start of his second term, consider our recent about-face on Syria and the Houthis, and listen to a Hamas official express his belief that US envoy Adam Boehler, whom he met with DIRECTLY, really listened this time. Basically, we add up all the ways we’re creating distance from Netanyahu and wonder what it all means for the Palestinians.

      <title>The Longest 100 Days, Ghaznavi(!) Missiles in Pakistan, Canadians Rebuke Trump, and Vance Ruins Easter for the Italians</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>So much to cover this week! The Trump administration crosses the 100 day mark, so Seena and Travis take stock of their self-proclaimed "achievements" and check in on some recent polling that suggests Americans aren’t buying it. As tension rises in Kashmir, they provide some historical context for the long-standing conflict between India and Pakistan. And a little surprise about Seena's last name shows up in the Pakistani nuclear arsenal. They dig into the surprising liberal party victory in Canada and check in on our other neighbors to the north in Greenland. And, of course, not to be forgotten, JD Vance keeps reminding us why he’s hated all over the world.</p><p>The Undo List link: bit.ly/theundolist</p><p>Articles/Media Referenced:</p><p>https://www.britannica.com/place/Kashmir-region-Indian-subcontinent</p><p>https://x.com/RpsAgainstTrump/status/1917040816356213051</p><p>https://www.thetimes.com/world/europe/article/jd-vance-visit-vatican-rome-t2hrm5cc6?region=global</p><p>https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/4/29/india-and-pakistan-tensions-continue-to-simmer-across-kashmir-border</p><p>https://www.bbc.com/news/10537286</p><p>https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/29/asia/kashmir-pakistan-india-tension-military-intl-hnk/index.html</p>

Is the rationale for an escalated trade war to be found in the machinations of the mysterious Ron Vara? Is it Trump’s distorted view of economics? Or, are we all just living in Fozzie Bear’s finger? It’s all on the table. As are Trump&apos;s threats to bomb Iran ahead of this weekend’s talks. Also, is JD Vance the loneliest man in the world?</itunes:summary>

      <title>Schumer, Slush Funds, and Ceasefires</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Travis Irvine is back with us this week to talk continuing resolutions, slush funds, and Chuck Schumer. Sure Schumer’s rationale might have been correct but the approach and lack of unified strategy from the dems is alarming. Israel has ended the ceasefire in Gaza with what they’re calling “Operation Strength and Sword” which has already killed over 500 people. Speaking of ceasefires, Russia and Ukraine are trying to figure out a partial ceasefire because that’s the best Russia can do. Europe’s working on replacing the US in NATO, protests erupted in Turkey after Erdogan’s rival was arrested, JD Vance vs. his cousin in a public spat, and a quick DOGE check-in. Try saying all that five times fast!</p><p>Follow The Show:  </p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/foreignreportshow/</p><p>Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@foreignreportlpn</p><p>Threads: https://www.threads.net/@foreignreportshow</p><p>Website: https://www.foreignreportshow.com/</p><p> </p><p>Follow the Host:  </p><p>https://www.instagram.com/seenanow/?hl=en</p><p> </p><p>Follow our Guest:</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/travisirvineusa/?hl=en</p><p> </p><p>Articles/Media referenced:</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/mediaite/reel/DHEUfNsoRL5/</p><p>https://open.spotify.com/episode/0z3DsXRAZjPDL2s2h4sQs4?si=c5b281aad0074dc8&nd=1&dlsi=3093895184bb4a68</p><p>https://www.mediaite.com/tv/what-the-fck-happened-jon-stewart-tears-into-chuck-schumer-feckless-dems/</p><p>https://www.npr.org/2025/03/18/nx-s1-5330876/democrats-trump-divided-voters</p><p>https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5194630-ocasio-cortez-schumer-government-shutdown/</p><p>https://www.gao.gov/blog/what-continuing-resolution-and-how-does-it-impact-government-operations</p><p>https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/senate-vote-republican-funding-bill-government-shutdown-rcna196412</p><p>https://apnews.com/article/alien-enemies-trump-immigration-deportations-21a62ede23b8c493b60d00a9c125722f</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/p/DHcKwsRp52b/?img_index=2&igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==</p><p>Israel declares ceasefire 'over' as it launches airstrikes in Gaza killing hundreds</p><p>Israeli strikes across Gaza hit multiple homes, killing at least 85 Palestinians</p><p>Military leaders discuss Ukraine peacekeeping force as partial ceasefire plans are worked out | AP News</p><p>Trump suggests US control of Ukraine’s power plants in Zelensky call</p><p>https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/3/21/europe-working-on-plan-to-replace-us-in-nato-in-five-to-10-years-report</p><p>https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5yren8mxp8o?utm_source=join1440&utm_medium=email&utm_placement=newsletter&user_id=66c4c6695d78644b3ab68e0b</p><p>Turkish police arrest Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, a key Erdogan rival | AP News</p><p>What we know about Istanbul's mayor and why he was arrested</p><p>​​https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/tur...</p>
