Today, the 11th of Farvardin 1399 or 2579, we are delighted and extatic to talk to Dr. Ori Goldberg again, and more or less complete the timeline series, with post-war and post-Khomeini Iran (or: Iran under Khamenei). As usual in this time of Coronavirus outbreak, we recorded thruogh Zoom.

Past episodes (all in Hebrew) in the Ori/Timeline series

Dr. Ori Goldberg has been voted the podcast's favorite guest (after a very challenging competition, as all our guests are amazing). These are are past episodes:

With Ori

Smurfs, tatoos and Shiite Islam

Shiite-Suni schism (say it!)

Iranian constitution 

Timeline episodes

The first three timeline episodes were in Hebrew, but if we get enough English-speaking listeners, we will consider re-recording select episodes in English, including the timelines:

Timeline 1 – prehistory up to modern times

Timeline 2 – A century of Revolutions

Timeline 3 with Ori – the Islamic Revolution

Other Enriched Iranium episodes we referred to

The future episodes 61 with Dr. Ilan Abecassis and 62 with Ruby Namdar (will link when they air if I remember)

Khamenei's speech at the Council of Experts

This is the video we commentated on (Khamenei explains why he shouldn't be the next leader)

And this is the commentary video, feel free to share!
