#109 The Ceasefire That Wasn’t · Iran, Leverage, and a Week That Didn’t Add Up
About this episode
This week, a war slowed down… a ceasefire was announced… and somehow, nothing fully lined up.
The U.S. said one thing. Iran said another. Israel kept moving. And the one metric that actually matters — the Strait of Hormuz — never clearly normalized.
So what actually happened?
In this Friday Review, we walk it out:
- What the ceasefire claimed to do
- Where it held up
- Where it broke
- And why everyone sounding confident might be the biggest red flag
Because when every side claims victory… it’s usually worth asking what’s actually been resolved.
This is not a recap.
This is the part everyone edits out.
