Summary

This hour, Newell is joined by Ahmad Sharawi, Senior Research Analyst with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, to explain Iran’s latest military moves, its foreign policy calculations, and what this means for U.S. national security. Then, NORA Executive Director Brenda Breaux joins the show to share how New Orleans is putting 140 vacant Katrina-era properties on the auction block this month and how a brand-new option allowing buyers to turn these lots into urban farms and community green spaces could transform city neighborhoods.
