Just as we were lamenting the fact that we had, with some sadness, placed our 'Middle East Analysis' podcasts on hold to consider the long-term future of the series, something cataclysmic and literally earth-shattering took place to shake us from our self-imposed slumber to talk about the war in Iran and its wider regional consequences.

Joining us is the voice of 'Middle East Analysis', the international lawyer, regional consultant, negotiator and commentator Dr Harry Hagopian. He sits in our studio alongside the Right Reverend Jim Curry, Lead Bishop for the Holy Land for the Catholic Church in England and Wales.

This 'Iran Special' runs for exactly 52-minutes.

In fact, MEA specials, to cover exceptional events may show us a future path for these podcasts. We hope you take something from the conversation.
