GoodFellows: Conversations on Economics, History & Geopolitics

Who’s Actually Running Iran? with Abbas Milani | Hoover Institution

April 17, 2026·1h 6m
Episode Description from the Publisher

Hoover Institution research fellow and Iran scholar Abbas Milani joins the GoodFellows to discuss life within the beleaguered theocracy: who’s in charge, and will added economic pressure in the form of a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, and a halt on Iran’s oil trade bring about an end to the regime. After that: the fellows’ thoughts on Hungary’s election, Iran war “winners and losers”, America’s woeful tax code, and the Artemis II space mission.
