The Gulf: The Misinformation War in Iran
Iran is one of the most important stories in the world right now — and one of the most distorted. Kaveh brings on AFP journalist Mariam Ishani Thompson, who reports from the only global news agency with a permanent bureau inside Iran, alongside returning guest Dr. Arghavan Salis, to talk about what's actually happening on the ground, why the information ecosystem around Iran is so broken, and what it means that most of us are getting our news from social media comments and partisan feeds.They get into the January massacres, the Strait of Hormuz, the diaspora's complicated relationship with the bombing, and how to find sources you can actually trust.

Hantavirus: What You Need to Know
A mysterious illness strikes passengers aboard a cruise ship off the coast of Cape Verde — and it's not the norovirus you'd expect. In this episode, Dr. Kaveh Hoda is joined by guest cohost Allen Liu and infectious disease physician and global health expert Dr. Krutika Kuppalli to break down the hantavirus outbreak aboard the MV Hondius, what it means for public health in the US, and why it has experts paying close attention, particularly with millions of visitors expected for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the US stepping back from the WHO. How prepared are we really? Not as much as you would hope, that's for sure.House of Pod merch is here!

Is the HHS Still a Dumpster Fire?
Yes. Of course. But maybe a slightly more competent one? This week, Dr. Kaveh Hoda is joined by virologist Dr. Angela Rasmussen and epidemiologist Dr. Elizabeth Jacobs to break down everything happening at the Department of Health and Human Services — and it's a lot. They dig into the surprise nomination of Dr. Erica Schwartz as CDC director (and why Aaron Siri hating her is maybe the strongest possible endorsement), RFK Jr.'s Congressional hearings and why he keeps slipping through, the re-parenting scandal and its ugly racial undertones, DEI and the Vaccines for Children program, the MAHA–MAGA alliance, and Trump's executive order fast-tracking ibogaine research because Joe Rogan sent a text.🛒 House of Pod merch is here!

Two Kavehs Discuss the End of a Civilization.
This week, Kaveh Hoda is joined by comic illustrator, podcaster, and fellow Kaveh, Kaveh Taherian, for a candid conversation about the week Trump threatened to wipe Iranian civilization off the map — and why neither of them can move on from it.They dig into the psychological and emotional toll this moment has had on the Iranian diaspora, the legal case that Trump's threats may violate the Geneva Conventions, and what polling data actually tells us about what Iranians inside and outside of Iran want. They also cover the latest on the failed JD Vance negotiations, Trump's proposed naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, and why keeping Iranian civilians at the center of this conversation matters more than ever.House of Pod merch is here!
