In 1979, 52 Americans were taken hostage in Iran, and the world watched in horror. But what if the real betrayal wasn’t in Tehran… but in Washington?

In this episode of Tea of the World, we expose the dark truth behind the Iran Hostage Crisis, the CIA’s coup in 1953, and the chilling theory that Ronald Reagan’s team cut a secret deal with Iran to delay the hostages’ release — all to win the 1980 election.

From Operation Ajax to the October Surprise to Iran-Contra, this is the story of how hostages became bargaining chips, elections were manipulated, and a presidency may have been bought with silence.

Buckle up. You’re about to sip on the tea they buried under red, white, and blue lies.

They said Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.
 They said we’d be liberators.
 They lied, and the world burned as a result.

In this explosive episode of Tea of the World, host Dylan (aka Mr. V) exposes the full horror of the Iraq War: the propaganda that sold it, the corporations that fed off it, and the human cost buried beneath patriotic slogans.

We dive deep into Camp Bucca, Abu Ghraib, and other U.S.-run prisons where torture, humiliation, and indefinite detainment radicalized a new generation of insurgents, including the future leaders of ISIS. These weren’t just detention centers; they were factories of hate, hidden behind razor wire and redacted reports.

This wasn’t liberation. It was occupation, degradation, and destruction—all fueled by a lie that became America's most profitable forever war.

This wasn’t a war.
This was slaughter.
 And the world looked away.

In this haunting episode of Tea of the World, host Dylan (aka Mr. V) pulls no punches exposing the six weeks of mass murder, rape, and unimaginable cruelty committed by the Japanese Imperial Army in China’s then-capital, Nanking. Over 300,000 civilians and prisoners of war were butchered. Women were mutilated. Children were used for bayonet practice.

This wasn’t just a massacre. It was a campaign of calculated terror, and it’s still denied by many to this day.

What happened in Nanking wasn’t history. It was a war crime. And it demands to be remembered.

It wasn’t just a movie.
It was real.
And it almost changed the world.

In this high-stakes episode of Tea of the World, host Dylan (aka Mr. V) takes you deep inside Operation Valkyrie—a secret plot by German officers to assassinate Adolf Hitler from the inside. We're talking hidden resistance within the Nazi regime, a bomb in a briefcase, and a plan that could’ve stopped the war... if one table leg hadn’t ruined everything.

This is the tea on the failed coup that terrified Hitler, and the men who were willing to die to bring him down.

A president watched a movie in the White House.
 That movie was a propaganda film for the Ku Klux Klan.
 He loved it.

In this episode of Tea of the World, host Dylan (aka Mr. V) pulls back the curtain on Woodrow Wilson—often praised as a progressive icon—and reveals the whole, ugly truth. From segregating the federal government to championing The Birth of a Nation, Wilson didn’t just tolerate racism—he actively fueled it. And Hollywood helped him do it.

This isn’t just a film review. It’s a deep dive into how cinema became a weapon of white supremacy, with a president applauding in the front row.

In the summer of 1919, the streets of America ran red—not with foreign blood, but with the blood of its own Black citizens.

In this brutal chapter of Tea of the World, host Dylan (aka Mr. V) exposes the horrifying truth behind the Red Summer. We’re talking about dozens of race massacres, lynch mobs, and the systematic destruction of Black communities across the country—all sparked by fear, racism, and white supremacy. From Chicago to Washington D.C. to rural Arkansas, the American Dream was burned to the ground... by its own people.

This isn’t just a story of violence—it’s a story of resistance, rage, and how history tries to bury what it can’t whitewash.

You’ve heard the fairy tale. The log cabin. The top hat. The man who "freed the slaves."
 Now hear the truth.

In this episode of Tea of the World, host Dylan (aka Mr. V) tears apart the carefully constructed myth of Abraham Lincoln and exposes the messy, racist, politically motivated reality underneath. From his real thoughts on slavery to his actions during the Civil War—you'll learn why Honest Abe wasn’t the hero history textbooks sold you.

This isn’t revisionism. This is the history they didn’t want to teach you.

Welcome to Tea of the World, where we spill the brutal, unfiltered truth behind history’s polished lies. In this debut episode, host Dylan (a.k.a. Mr. V) rips the mask off one of America’s darkest, most overlooked atrocities—the Trail of Tears. What really happened when the U.S. government forced Indigenous people from their lands? How many died? And why is this chapter still buried under patriotic propaganda?

Forget the sugarcoated textbook version. This is history raw, real, and ready to slap you awake.
