In this episode - Tamim Asey is joined by the world-renowned Taliban expert and Afghanistan historian Professor Michael Semple for a deep dive into the lives, leadership and legacy of the Taliban’s three Emirs: Mullah Omar, Mullah Akhtar Mansoor and Sheikh Hibatullah Akhundzada.
Together, they explore how the Taliban craft myths around their leaders, the role of secrecy and decentralised governance and whether there’s any space for reform within the movement. The discussion also covers the worldviews of various Taliban Emirs, the prospects of a succession crisis, economic control and the group’s enduring oppression of women.
A must-listen for anyone interested in the hidden world behind the Taliban’s rise, rule and resilience.

•Secrecy, decentralisation and internal power dynamics
•The question of Taliban reform and moderation
•Taliban foreign relations with Iran, China, Russia, and the West
•Succession risks and internal fractures
