On November 4, 1979, student militants stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, seizing dozens of American diplomats and staff. Their protest—sparked by the U.S. decision to admit the exiled Shah of Iran for medical treatment—quickly became a geopolitical standoff that lasted 444 days.

In this episode, Kona Gallagher revisits the tense beginnings of the Iran Hostage Crisis, tracing how a small group of students reshaped world politics and upended American life.

From President Carter’s economic sanctions and the failed Operation Eagle Claw rescue attempt to the hostages’ eventual release on January 20, 1981, this story reveals how one event transformed diplomacy, media, and public trust.

The crisis outlasted one presidency, launched a nightly television ritual, and left emotional and political scars that endure to this day.
