  • Did Trump Already LOSE the War in Iran? (ft. Ian Bremmer and Dan Senor)

    Did Trump Already LOSE the War in Iran? (ft. Ian Bremmer and Dan Senor)
    Mar 25 2026
    Three weeks into Trump’s war with Iran, is anyone actually winning? Or are we watching a conflict spiral with no clear endgame? Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov sit down with Ian Bremmer (president of the Eurasia Group) and Dan Senor (former policy advisor to Mitt Romney, and the host of the “Call Me Back” podcast) for a real debate on the war. They talk about whether or not the U.S. has a strategy for either meaningful victory or enduring peace, the consequences the war has had on regional stability and on Trump’s political base at home, how our actions in Iran have affected the country’s standing in other global conflicts — like the Russia-Ukraine war, and in Venezuela. Plus: what it all means for the global economy, oil prices, and our experts predict how things could unfold from here.

    Trump Triggers Airport Chaos and Manipulates Markets — Can Democrats Take Back Immigration? (ft. Rep. Sarah McBride)
    Mar 23 2026
    Congresswoman Sarah McBride (D - DE) joins Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov to break down how Democrats should respond to everything from Trump mocking Robert Mueller’s death, to deploying ICE at airports, rising gas prices, and the escalating war with Iran. She explains how all of it hits Americans’ wallets. McBride also dives into the internet’s role in radicalizing young people, the GOP’s culture war on trans rights, and the “culture of cynicism” dominating politics. She speaks on the adversity she's faced on the road to becoming the first openly transgender member of U.S. Congress in history.

  • Trump’s Iran War Plan Falls Apart as Allies Walk Away

    Trump’s Iran War Plan Falls Apart as Allies Walk Away
    Mar 17 2026
    Trump is facing pressure on all fronts — and the cracks are starting to show. Abroad, tensions with Iran are escalating fast after a reported strike near Tehran killed a top Iranian leader. As the situation spirals, Donald Trump is pushing U.S. allies to help secure the Strait of Hormuz — but so far, key partners are refusing, raising questions about America’s influence and the risk of a wider conflict. Back home, reality is setting in. After promising mass deportations and a “100 percent American workforce,” the administration is now expanding migrant farmworker visas as labor shortages hit — a stark reversal that exposes the limits of Trump’s immigration agenda. Meanwhile, Republicans are advancing the SAVE Act, a controversial voting bill critics warn could tilt elections toward the GOP. Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break it all down — from growing global pushback to the economic fallout at home, and whether the administration is losing control of its own agenda. Plus, Scott recaps his night at the Vanity Fair Oscars party.

    Meet the Man Who Could Flip Texas — with Rep. James Talarico (Live from SXSW)
    Mar 16 2026
    Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov host a LIVE recording of Raging Moderates, and are joined by special guest Texas Rep. James Talarico (D-TX), fresh off his Senate primary win. They discuss how he approached the campaign — which drew record Democratic turnout in the state, how he plans to approach governing if he does win a Senate seat, what his signature policies will be, and how he plans to defend himself against the onslaught of right-wing attacks coming his way — including a recent attack from President Trump. They also discuss problems facing young adults — and young men in particular — in the state of Texas, and what can be done to help those who are struggling. This event was live-streamed from the Vox Podcast Stage at SXSW in Austin, Texas on March 14, 2026. Follow Jessica Tarlov, @JessicaTarlov. Follow Prof G, @profgalloway.

    Trump’s Iran and Immigration Pivot Sparks MAGA Civil War
    Mar 13 2026
    MAGA world is starting to crack. Jessica Tarlov and Aaron Parnas break down the growing backlash against Donald Trump from his own base over the escalating conflict with Iran and a brewing fight inside the right over mass deportations. But first, they discuss two disturbing attacks this week: a man driving a truck into Temple Israel outside Detroit before exchanging gunfire with security, and a shooting at Old Dominion University involving a suspect previously convicted of attempting to provide support to ISIS. Plus, a bizarre new statue on the National Mall is once again putting Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein back in the spotlight. And longtime Democratic kingmaker James Clyburn announces he’s running again at 85 — reigniting the debate over generational change inside the Democratic Party.
