War in Iran: We Told You This Would Happen + Trump Flip Flops & Vietnam Gets Tough

This week we couldn’t help ourselves, we had to do it. This war is such a shitshow a collective “we told you so” just needed to be said. From the reaction of the proxies to the swiftness with which Iran took control of the Strait of Hormuz to the continued and ever deepening suffering of the Iranian people, all of this was foreseeable. We looked into Trump’s recent change of heart on troops in Poland and the danger of China procuring our AI tech. Who woulda thought that could be a bad idea? We also checked in on why Vietnam is beefing up its maritime footprint and why JD gave Dems fighting fraud the cold shoulder. Apparently simply being inept wasn’t cutting it anymore.

The Foreign Report from Last Podcast Network dives into the wildest corners of global politics with sharp analysis and pitch-black humor. Each week, producer, comedian, and lawyer Seena Ghaznavi teams up with a rotating crew of journalists, experts, and policy nerds to unpack the stories shaping our world, from power struggles and propaganda wars to strange moments of competitive authoritarianism and beyond. Expect smart, irreverent commentary that cuts through official narratives, explains why today’s headlines actually matter, and still finds room to laugh at the absurdity of it all. Whether you obsess over international news or just want someone to translate the chaos into something you can argue about with friends, this podcast has you covered. Hit play, listen episodes that challenge your assumptions, and stay just informed enough to worry productively.
