  • Roqe Ep. 419 - IRAN RISES - Fighting Disinformation - Sadaf Yasini, Pegah Ganji, Daniel Diba
    2026/02/27
    On this edition of Roqe, Jian and guests examine the growing wave of disinformation surrounding Iran in Western media and public discourse. Joining from Vancouver, Sadaf Yasini, and from Ottawa, longtime Roqe contributor Pegah Ganji, the conversation explores: The scale and discipline of diaspora demonstrations Why Western audiences struggle to process the demand for regime change How anti-war rhetoric can obscure the reality Iranians are already living And what practical steps the diaspora can take to educate non-Iranians Jian opens with an essay urging Iranians in the diaspora not just to speak to each other - but to reach out beyond their own communities. Silence creates informational vacuums. Vacuums invite distortion. Later, Jian speaks with Daniel Diba, who recounts his imprisonment and torture by the Islamic Republic and explains why he believes it is critical to speak out now.

  • Roqe Ep. 418 - IRAN RISES - The Students Arise! - Dr. Sepehr Vakil
    2026/02/23
    As student protests surge across Iran, universities are once again becoming epicenters of open defiance. In this episode of Roqe, we focus on the courage of Iranian students demonstrating right now - chanting forbidden slogans, confronting repression on their own campuses, and absorbing immense personal risk in the face of an authoritarian regime. Jian opens with a powerful essay addressed directly to Iran’s students. He is then joined by Dr. Sepehr Vakil, associate professor at Northwestern University and author of Revolutionary Engineers, for a wide-ranging conversation that connects Iran’s long history of student activism to the present moment. Together, they explore why students so often move first, what today’s campus uprisings reveal about the strength and fragility of the Islamic Republic, and what this latest wave of student courage may bode for a revolution aimed at a free Iran.

  • Roqe Ep. 417 - IRAN RISES - Iranians Are Already at War - Ali Hamedani, Mahdi Ghodsi, Ardeshir Zarezadeh
    2026/02/20
    In Episode 417 of Roqe, Jian challenges the sudden rise of Western “anti-war” rhetoric on Iran by reframing the reality on the ground. Iranians are not debating a future conflict - they are already living through one, as the Islamic Republic continues its campaign of repression, arrests, and mass killing. The opening essay explores why many Iranians now support intervention - not lightly, not casually, but after decades of failed reform, negotiation, and restraint. The episode then turns to a global panel discussion examining the fallout from the Global Day of Action demonstrations, Prince Reza Pahlavi’s presence at the Munich Security Conference, and the regime’s escalating crackdown inside Iran. Panelists analyze whether the Islamic Republic can maintain power, what intervention actually means, and why Western audiences continue to misunderstand Iranian demands. Guests: Ali Hamedani - London Ardeshir Zarezadeh - Toronto Mahdi Ghodsi - Vienna Recorded February 19, 2026. Sponsors: @StellarLawTO @AvocaChocolates
