We break down the U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, the debate over whether they were strategically sound, and what the administration may have failed to plan for next. The conversation covers Karg Island, the Strait of Hormuz, naval shortfalls, NSC process problems, and why tactical success could still lead to a much bigger regional war.

We sit down with ad tech and data analytics expert Mike Yeagley to discuss how commercial advertising data became a powerful intelligence tool used by the U.S. national security community. He explains how smartphones, apps, and location data can reveal patterns of life and how programs developed with special operations helped track terrorists and understand targets on the battlefield. We also discuss privacy, surveillance, and what this technology means for intelligence operations and everyday people.

We break down the latest developments in the war with Iran, including strikes on key targets, the mining of the Strait of Hormuz, and the growing economic impact on global oil markets. The discussion dives into Iran’s black market oil trade with China, the rise of IRGC power inside the regime, and whether the U.S. actually has a clear strategic end state. We also examine drone warfare lessons from Ukraine and what the conflict could mean for China, Taiwan, and the broader global balance of power.
