Russ has an in-depth conversation with his good friend, the Lebanese journalist Dalal Mawad. He also follows up on Ta Nehisi Coates' goings on, including an unhinged "interview" by CBS anchor Tony Dekoupil which you can watch in its entirety here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgWt-QcPYMo&ab_channel=CBSMornings

But most importantly, Dalal and Russ get into Lebanon's political system, it's modern history and previous and present wars between Hezbollah and Israel.

This is Dalal's recent article about martyred Hezbollah fighters and the mothers they leave behind: https://newlinesmag.com/spotlight/hezbollah-fighters-stories-as-told-by-their-mothers/

Dalal's book on the 2020 Beirut blast and the toll it's taken on women. Dalal reads the audio book herself: https://www.amazon.com/All-She-Lost-Explosion-Collapse/dp/1399406256?asc_campaign=ded1ba29e9767f0f6b1bed48903c12c8&asc_source=01H1P39M5ZSG9J6WR6B1HBK9M0&tag=namespacebran492-20
