A few times a year, our team travels all over the world to interview guests who aren't able to record in one of our studios. And whenever these trips get confirmed, the first thing we book is a place on Airbnb so that the entire team can stay together. And over time, we've developed a small checklist for wherever we stay. Obvious things like incredibly fast Wi-Fi are a must and a big dining table so we can all work somewhere together. Then there's less obvious things like a coffee machine to keep the team going, a living room big enough for planning meetings, and all of these things, the small things, the big things, they really do make the space work for a team like ours. So if you've ever thought about hosting on Airbnb but haven't felt sure if your place is right, remember that it might have exactly what someone's looking for. Hosting on Airbnb is easy, and it's a smart way of making a bit more extra money on the side. All you have to do is choose the dates that work for you. Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.ca/host.

Iran has figured out that we can't beat them. We're not weakening Iran. We have strengthened Iran, and we can't stop their drone attacks. And what you're seeing is far more chaotic decision-making is happening in the White House than is happening in the government of Iran. And it's evidence Trump is losing power.

So when I look through the response to the last conversation, the audience had lots of different types of questions. Like there's ninety-odd million people stuck right in the heart of this that often don't really have a voice. What do you think happens next for them? And what is Israel's role in this?

Well, Israel
