  • Is your Rage Pure Enough? w/Sina Rahmani - Psychlib ep.5
    Apr 30 2025

    *I was invited to the Psychlib podcast to discuss the power of rage and it resulted in ~90 mins of mostly me ranting*

    In this wide-ranging and wide-ranting discussion, Sina, Sacha and Benji explore the psychological clay feet of the dying white empire. We explore the entanglement of settler colonies and how they can't genocide their way to victory over the rest of the world. We look at the psychological protective and mobilizing role of rage. If, like us, you consider that ranting Sina is peak Sina, you'll enjoy this episode!

  • Is the Apocalypse Avoidable? Are We Headed for World War 3? w/ Sina Rahmani
    Apr 16 2025

    *I recently did two very long livestreams with friend of the show and comrade Jared Ware from Millenials are Killing Capitalism. I didn't want to subject all of you on the free feed to almost six hours of mostly Sina yeling so I put one of our conversations behind the paywall. You can watch that episode linked below*

    Back by popular demand. Sina Rahmani will return to the show to discuss whether we are in the early days of World War 3. Has it been "quietly" raging for a few years now? Are such questions hyperbolic or alarmist by nature? What possible futures actually await us in an era of extreme violence and geopolitical fluctuation?

    In particular, we will discuss the possibility of a US-Israeli detente with Iran, the continuation of hybrid war, or the escalation to a more direct hot war. How does the "trade war" with China figure into this?

    Check out Friday's discussion if you missed it. Because 3 hours is a long conversation, we included "key moments" in the show description so you can navigate to specific parts if you prefer:

  • Iran's History and Geopolitical Relations w/Prof. David N. Yaghoubian
    Mar 2 2025

    This is a preview of a recent episode of The Adnan Husain Show. The conversation continued for another full hour! Subscribe to Adnan's show on your podcatcher to listen to the full episode or watch it on YouTube linked below.

    Prof. Adnan Husain discusses the modern history of Iran from the late nineteenth century to contemporary relations with the US with friend and colleague Prof. David N. Yaghoubian of California State University-San Bernardino. We discuss Iran's traditions of statecraft and geopolitical relations with imperial powers, Russia and Britain, until the Cold War, when Iran became a pillar of US hegemony in the Middle East after subverting and overthrowing the nationalist government of Mossadegh. Prof. Yaghoubian shares his analysis of the current Iranian state's alliances with Russia and China to evade unremitting US sanctions as one of "grievances" rather than "interests" created by aggressive US policy. A wide-ranging conversation benefiting from Prof. Yaghoubian's thorough historical knowledge and trenchant political analysis.

    Dr. David N. Yaghoubian is Professor of Modern west Asian and Islamic History at California State University-San Bernardino and author of "Ethnicity, Identity, and the Development of Nationalism in Iran" (Syracuse, 2014) and co-editor of "Struggle and Survival in the Modern Middle East" (3rd edition forthcoming).
