In this high-stakes episode of The UnWoke Show, Tim and Rich dive into the geopolitical powder keg of the Middle East with "Axis of Tension: Iran, Israel, and the U.S. at a Crossroads." With diplomacy unraveling and proxy conflicts escalating, where does the balance of power truly lie? Is this a moment for de-escalation—or the beginning of something far more volatile? Tim and Rich cut through the noise to examine the underlying motives, historic grievances, and shifting alliances that shape this critical moment in global affairs.
