Summary
In this episode of "The John Doyle Show," John begins by answering the question of who really benefits from the United States' ongoing war with Iran. After weighing the many competing interests, the history, and the long-term political implications of the conflict, the answer becomes clear: It's complicated. Then John discusses the upcoming launch of Artemis II, which marks America's first voyage to the moon in over 50 years, and discusses why moon-landing denialism has become such a prevalent conspiracy theory in the modern day. Finally, John reacts to a recent promotional video from the State Department, which is reorienting its hiring practices to increasingly favor young, patriotic Americans as opposed to DEI freak shows.
