About this episode

John and Jeremy Zogby discuss the political and geopolitical implications of recent events, including the Iran deal and a controversial White House event.

In this edition of Real Polling in Real Time, John and Jeremy Zogby dive into the pressing political and geopolitical issues shaping our world today. From the controversial $60 million Ultimate Fighting Challenge extravaganza at the White House to the ongoing uncertainties around an Iran deal, they explore the implications for U.S. domestic politics and global stability. We discuss the deepening political polarization in America, the blurring of lines between entertainment and politics, and the challenges facing critical infrastructure like water systems. The episode also provides an in-depth analysis of the Iran conflict, its impact on global energy security—especially control over the Strait of Hormuz—and the fragile prospects for a lasting ceasefire. Join us for a timely discussion on how these events reflect broader national and international dynamics and what the future may hold for U.S. policy and global peace.
