The son of the late Shah lives abroad and calls for the overthrow of the Islamic Republic. But can he deliver on that goal? And can the son of an authoritarian monarch truly offer a path to freedom and democracy for Iran? If you like the podcast, don’t forget to like and subscribe!

  • Inside the Terror: An Israeli Hostage’s Ordeal with Hamas
    Mar 30 2025
    She was taken from her home at gunpoint. For months, Raz Ben Ami lived as a hostage in Gaza—held captive by Hamas after the brutal October 7th attack on her Kibbutz in Israel. In this deeply personal and harrowing episode, Paul Ronzheimer speaks with Raz about the horrors of her captivity, the psychological toll of being used as a human shield, and the long road back to freedom. How did she survive? What did she see? And what does she want the world to understand about life under the control of Hamas—a group designated as a terrorist organization by the EU, the US, and others? A gripping testimony of resilience from the heart of the conflict. If you like the podcast, don’t forget to like and subscribe! Do you have questions, criticism, or topic suggestions?

  • Antisemitism: We Can’t Hear the Platitudes Any Longer! With Mathias Döpfner
    Oct 8 2024
    One year ago, on October 7, 2023, Palestinian terrorists committed the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. However, instead of showing solidarity with Israel, antisemitism is growing stronger. And politics responds with platitudes and empty rhetoric. In this episode, Paul Ronzheimer speaks with Axel Springer CEO Mathias Döpfner about the attack on Israel and its consequences. Döpfner is shocked by the “cold-heartedness” of many supposedly progressive circles toward Israel and sees Germany at a “crossroads.” The decisions made now will determine whether the path leads to disaster or whether the Federal Republic can draw the right conclusions from Islamism and antisemitism.
