On the day of England vs. Iran, Tom and Dominic are joined by friend of the show, Ali Ansari, to discuss Anglo-Iranian relations.
Tune in to hear stories of freemasons, early Iranian analysis of Tories and Whigs, the Anglo-Persian War, Salman Rushdie’s fatwa, the ancestor of British Petroleum, and why Iran still sees England as a fox-like, ‘little Satan’.
