Proximities

In this week's episode, we talk to Negar Mortazavi in an effort to go deeper than the usual international headlines about Iran. What is life in the country like? Where do people really stand on internal politics and the U.S.-Israeli war on the country? What does western media sometimes get wrong? And how can you get more accurate information on Iran? Negar explains all of that and more. 

Negar Mortazavi is a veteran Iranian-American journalist and analyst, host of "The Iran Podcast", and Senior Fellow at the Center for International Policy. She has spent the last 15 years following and dissecting Iranian politics and Iran-U.S. relations.
