About this episode

The episode discusses economic strategies regarding Iran, the potential sequel to Woke culture, and the implications of a professor's suicide on academic discourse.

On the latest GoodFellows: Is economic strangulation the key to achieving Iranian cooperation, or another misstep in the Persian Gulf? Is a sequel to “Woke 1” in the works? And does playing the race card in the aftermath of a former Cambridge University professor's suicide make his death even more tragic – and distract from another tragedy: declining academic tragedy?
