We break down the growing fears of Iranian sleeper cells in the U.S. and whether the threat is real or overblown. The conversation covers how Iran and Hezbollah actually operate, the difference between lone wolves and organized networks, and what capability really looks like. We also dive into U.S. force movements, the Strait of Hormuz, and the challenges of dealing with Iran’s nuclear program.The High Side :⬇️https://thehighside.substack.com/Jack's new book⬇️https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/803651/the-most-dangerous-man-by-jack-murphy/Support the show on Patreon:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseSubscribe to our new newsletter!!!!https://teamhousepodcast.kit.com/joinWhitefish Security Summit ⬇️https://whitefishsecuritysummit.com/New merch, patches, and stickers! ⬇️https://theteamhouse-shop.fourthwall.comCheck out Mick's new podcast here:⬇️Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/at/podcast/pub-and-porch-applied-stoicism/id1836955475Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1k3QPmkAMwnGJxMLDwUSSd?si=n6piIu8XRcag1Z0K43A3bQYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/@UCd0Hq6QFk8CoTu5j-VU0Ong Find Mick Mulroy here: Fogbow ⬇️https://fogbow.com/Lobo Institute ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/Twitter ⬇️https://x.com/mickmulroy?s=21&t=-Ze3F_Ix2vlJ18KFvORTCALinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-patrick-mulroy-31198b52/Bluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/mickmulroy.bsky.socialMick’s publications ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/publications/publications-of-michael-mick-patrick-mulroy/Find Marc P here:https://x.com/MpolymerFind Andy Milburn here: Twitter ⬇️https://twitter.com/i/flow/login?redirect_after_login=%2Fandymilburn8LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmilburn2023Substack ⬇️https://amilburn.substack.com/Andy’s book ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/When-Tempest-Gathers-Mogadishu-OperationsBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/andy-milburn.bsky.socialFind Jason Lyons here: LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-lyons-666873316?uBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/bgsilverback73.bsky.social"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio"00:00 Iran Strikes & Sleeper Cell Panic01:58 Are Iranian Sleeper Cells Real?05:45 Why Most Terror Plots Fail10:30 Lone Wolves vs Real Threats16:49 The Myth of “Sleeper Cells”23:20 U.S. Moves Forces to the Gulf47:52 The Iran Nuclear Problem ExplainedBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-team-house--5960890/support.

We sit down with ad tech and data analytics expert Mike Yeagley to discuss how commercial advertising data became a powerful intelligence tool used by the U.S. national security community. He explains how smartphones, apps, and location data can reveal patterns of life and how programs developed with special operations helped track terrorists and understand targets on the battlefield. We also discuss privacy, surveillance, and what this technology means for intelligence operations and everyday people.Today's Sponsors:Mando ⬇️Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with MANDO and get 20% off + free shipping with promo code [TEAMHOUSE] at https://shopmando.com/GhostBed⬇️https://www.ghostbed.com/houseFOR 10% off! Miracle Made ⬇️Upgrade your sleep with Miracle Made!

We break down the latest developments in the war with Iran, including strikes on key targets, the mining of the Strait of Hormuz, and the growing economic impact on global oil markets. The discussion dives into Iran’s black market oil trade with China, the rise of IRGC power inside the regime, and whether the U.S. actually has a clear strategic end state. We also examine drone warfare lessons from Ukraine and what the conflict could mean for China, Taiwan, and the broader global balance of power.Jon Hackett's Book:⬇️https://a.co/d/082z28uYSupport the show on Patreon:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseSubscribe to our new newsletter!!!!https://teamhousepodcast.kit.com/joinWhitefish Security Summit ⬇️https://whitefishsecuritysummit.com/New merch, patches, and stickers! ⬇️https://theteamhouse-shop.fourthwall.comCheck out Mick's new podcast here:⬇️Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/at/podcast/pub-and-porch-applied-stoicism/id1836955475Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1k3QPmkAMwnGJxMLDwUSSd?si=n6piIu8XRcag1Z0K43A3bQYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/@UCd0Hq6QFk8CoTu5j-VU0Ong Find Mick Mulroy here: Fogbow ⬇️https://fogbow.com/Lobo Institute ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/Twitter ⬇️https://x.com/mickmulroy?s=21&t=-Ze3F_Ix2vlJ18KFvORTCALinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-patrick-mulroy-31198b52/Bluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/mickmulroy.bsky.socialMick’s publications ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/publications/publications-of-michael-mick-patrick-mulroy/Find Marc P here:https://x.com/MpolymerFind Andy Milburn here: Twitter ⬇️https://twitter.com/i/flow/login?redirect_after_login=%2Fandymilburn8LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmilburn2023Substack ⬇️https://amilburn.substack.com/Andy’s book ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/When-Tempest-Gathers-Mogadishu-OperationsBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/andy-milburn.bsky.socialFind Jason Lyons here: LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-lyons-666873316?uBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/bgsilverback73.bsky.social"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio"00:00 Start\War Update: US Strikes Iran & Strait of Hormuz Tensions02:30 Iran’s Oil Sales to China & Black Market Tankers06:20 IRGC Power Grab & Iran’s New Supreme Leader09:40 Is There a US Strategy or End State for the War?15:35 Political vs Military Risk in War Planning21:30 Drone Warfare Lessons from Ukraine29:40 Boots on the Ground?
