Make It Make Sense with Grant Hermes
Are We Going To War With Iran? w/ The Under Report's Eric Czuleger (again!)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Grant brings Eric Czuleger back on the show for the very first back-to-back guest on Make It Make Sense.
With the largest military buildup in the Middle East since 2002 happening right now and President Donald Trump promising a "limited strike" in Iran, the world is on edge... again.
Grant and Eric talk about how the US got here, why it's different than the last time the US bombed Iran, and whether the US is about to get into another war in the Middle East.
