Episode Trump Downplays War Costs as Oil Explodes and Markets Crash

0:00 33:56

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down the rapidly escalating war with Iran as it enters week two. Tehran has installed Mojtaba Khamenei as the new supreme leader — a move that effectively turns the Islamic Republic into a dynasty, decades after the revolution that was supposed to end dynastic rule.

Meanwhile, casualties are rising, oil has surged past $100 a barrel, and global markets are starting to react. They discuss the economic fallout — from spiking energy prices to the potential impact on inflation and markets. Plus: what Mojtaba’s rise means for Iran’s future, how much influence Washington actually has over who leads the country, and whether Trump has a clear endgame for the conflict.
