Why listen
The Team House gives you long, firsthand conversations with people who have lived inside special operations, intelligence, war reporting, and national security decision-making. Jack Murphy's interviews often feel like oral history, while Eyes On Geopolitics adds a rotating expert panel with Mick Mulroy, Andy Milburn, Jason Lyons, and others breaking down live world events. It is a strong fit for listeners who want military and intelligence stories with operational detail rather than cable-news shouting.

We break down the latest developments in the war with Iran, including strikes on key targets, the mining of the Strait of Hormuz, and the growing economic impact on global oil markets. The discussion dives into Iran’s black market oil trade with China, the rise of IRGC power inside the regime, and whether the U.S. actually has a clear strategic end state. We also examine drone warfare lessons from Ukraine and what the conflict could mean for China, Taiwan, and the broader global balance of power.Jon Hackett's Book:⬇️https://a.co/d/082z28uYSupport the show on Patreon:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseSubscribe to our new newsletter!!!!https://teamhousepodcast.kit.com/joinWhitefish Security Summit ⬇️https://whitefishsecuritysummit.com/New merch, patches, and stickers! ⬇️https://theteamhouse-shop.fourthwall.comCheck out Mick's new podcast here:⬇️Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/at/podcast/pub-and-porch-applied-stoicism/id1836955475Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1k3QPmkAMwnGJxMLDwUSSd?si=n6piIu8XRcag1Z0K43A3bQYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/@UCd0Hq6QFk8CoTu5j-VU0Ong Find Mick Mulroy here: Fogbow ⬇️https://fogbow.com/Lobo Institute ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/Twitter ⬇️https://x.com/mickmulroy?s=21&t=-Ze3F_Ix2vlJ18KFvORTCALinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-patrick-mulroy-31198b52/Bluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/mickmulroy.bsky.socialMick’s publications ⬇️https://www.loboinstitute.org/publications/publications-of-michael-mick-patrick-mulroy/Find Marc P here:https://x.com/MpolymerFind Andy Milburn here: Twitter ⬇️https://twitter.com/i/flow/login?redirect_after_login=%2Fandymilburn8LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmilburn2023Substack ⬇️https://amilburn.substack.com/Andy’s book ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/When-Tempest-Gathers-Mogadishu-OperationsBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/andy-milburn.bsky.socialFind Jason Lyons here: LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-lyons-666873316?uBluesky ⬇️https://bsky.app/profile/bgsilverback73.bsky.social"Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio"00:00 Start\War Update: US Strikes Iran & Strait of Hormuz Tensions02:30 Iran’s Oil Sales to China & Black Market Tankers06:20 IRGC Power Grab & Iran’s New Supreme Leader09:40 Is There a US Strategy or End State for the War?15:35 Political vs Military Risk in War Planning21:30 Drone Warfare Lessons from Ukraine29:40 Boots on the Ground?
