The KAJ Masterclass LIVE

Is the US-Iran ceasefire real — or a convenient fiction? In this edition of The World According to Irina Tsukerman — the bi-weekly geopolitical series on KAJ Masterclass LIVE — host Khudania Ajay (KAJ) sits down with Irina Tsukerman, US-based national security and human rights lawyer, geopolitical analyst, and Editor-in-Chief of The Washington Outsider, to dissect a Middle East in controlled chaos: why Trump keeps treating a violated ceasefire as intact, what Iran is actually waiting out, and how the Strait of Hormuz blockade is quietly strangling economies from Kuwait to India.

The conversation expands outward — Venezuela's interim leader visiting New Delhi, Marco Rubio's maintenance diplomacy in India, China's conspicuous absence from the Shangri-La Dialogue, and Japan's quiet transformation into a serious regional security actor. Each thread connects: energy dependence, supply chain fragility, and the realignment of middle powers in an era of great-power competition.

The episode closes on Gaza's Board of Peace — $17 billion pledged, zero transferred, and a reconstruction mandate with no money behind it.

A special conversation with author Dr. Will Tuttle on their book “The World Peace Way: Six Keys to Health and Harmony for All.

”Dr. Will Tuttle has spent over five decades studying what it actually takes to be healthy — not just physically, but psychologically, spiritually, and socially. A former Zen monk, PhD, and author of the international bestseller The World Peace Diet, he joins this conversation to walk through his newest book, The World Peace Way, a practical guide built around six keys: diet, spiritual practice, relationships, movement, nature, and creativity.

What makes this conversation worth staying with is how grounded it is. Dr. Tuttle doesn't trade in abstractions — he talks about the pans you cook with, how you breathe, why squatting is better than sitting, and what junk media does to your cells. Ancient wisdom and cutting-edge science, made usable.

Most people over 40 who struggle with pain, stiffness, or plateaus aren't training too little — they're building strength on top of dysfunction. Stephan Alheim, founder of TA4 Fitness, explains why a movement screen is as essential as blood work, what sitting for more than six hours a day actually does to your body, and why the standard fitness approach fails the moment life gets in the way.This conversation reframes health entirely — away from the mirror and the scale, toward what your body needs to do at 60, 70, and beyond.

Adam Mills didn't set out to write about race, small towns, or forbidden relationships. He sat down in a coffee shop in Mexico City with a spiral notebook and no plan — and the story told him what it needed to be. In this conversation with host KAJ, the author of the Patrick Stone series talks about the creative process behind writing four books, the challenge of writing characters whose experience differs from your own, and why a book, like a child, eventually stops belonging to you.

He also gets honest about the part most writers avoid: marketing, sustainability, and what it actually takes to let your work be found.

Dr. Troy Rohn has spent two decades in neuroscience research, lived with anxiety his entire life, and co-founded a biotech company trying to treat it in a way no drug has managed before. In this conversation with host KAJ, he makes a quiet but striking case: that anxiety is not a mystery, it is a circuit problem — and gene therapy may finally be precise enough to address it at the source.The conversation covers what anxiety actually is, why current medications fail a third of the people who take them, the difference between RNA and DNA therapies, and what a world looks like where mental health treatment is personalised to your own genetic makeup.
