Joseph Eptstein is back on the podcast to discuss recent events in the Middle East. As listeners of my podcast and readers of my newsletter know, Syria has undergone a seismic change in the last month with the collapse of the Assad regime, and the emergence of a new government composed of elements of a Turkey-backed rebel coalition. Where do we go from here?

Joseph and I unpack this question as we explore the events that led up to Assad’s ouster, the groups and people now seeking to build a better Syria, and the broader regional and global implications of one of 2024’s biggest black swan events.

Just a reminder
