  • The war with Iran

    The war with Iran
    Mar 11 2026
    The U.S. is now at war with Iran — and in this episode, we break down how we got here, why it happened now, and what could come next. We react in real time to the opening phase of the conflict, from the shock of direct U.S. involvement to the strategic questions already emerging: the Strait of Hormuz, oil disruption, Iran’s missile and drone strategy, regime change talk, and the possibility of a much wider regional war. They also dig into the shifting justifications for the conflict, whether this was really about nuclear weapons, how Israel may have shaped the timing, and why the endgame still looks dangerously unclear.

  • Why Iranian Protests Keep Failing (According to an Iranian)

    Why Iranian Protests Keep Failing (According to an Iranian)
    Jan 16 2026
    Iran’s protests flare up, the internet fills with “this is it,” and then… silence. In this episode of Bro History, we watch and react to a sharp (and frankly blackpilling) breakdown from Sharghzadeh — an Iranian diaspora creator — on why Iranian protest movements repeatedly fail, and why the same cycle keeps repeating. Sharghzadeh’s core argument is uncomfortable but important: anger isn’t enough. Without leadership, a coherent endgame, and a realistic path to defections (plus a plan for what happens after), protests can burn out while the state escalates and survives. Original video we react to (go subscribe): Sharghzadeh channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/sharghzadeh/videos 00:00 – Setting the stage: protests “wound down,” not “resolved”07:35 – Video begins: “bad analysis” + wishcasting12:23 – Pronunciation debate (and what that actually signals)18:37 – “Revolutions take years” (why the timeline matters)31:39 – No ideology, no clear end state46:20 – Why “a leader” isn’t the same as “a symbol” (Reza Pahlavi section)59:05 – “Foreign help won’t rain from the sky”01:01:00 – States can limp on indefinitely (the depressing part)01:11:16 – Religion, motivation, and why regimes have “true believers”01:19:41 – The hardest point: what happens to regime remnants?01:30:10 – Our take + what a “non-collapse” transition can look like01:34:04 – The big open question: “Okay… now what?”01:40:02 – Shoutout to Sharghzadeh + wrap #Iran #IranProtests #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #BroHistory #IranianDiaspora #IRGC #RegimeChange #Revolution #ForeignPolicy #PoliticalAnalysis #HistoryPodcast TIMESTAMPS Links to our other stuff on the interwebs: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@BroHistory⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://brohistory.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ #344 Learn more about your ad choices.
