Welcome in everybody. I'm Mark Cowper, and this is another wartime episode of Next Up. We have plenty to talk about, not just the Iran War, but other things that are going on currently here in America and around the world. I'm the editor-in-chief of the live interactive video platform 2A and your host here for a program that I love doing and love spending time with you. This is the Thursday episode, and we're glad you're here to talk through with four great guests, guests, and more guests today. Packed episode, stay around for the whole thing. First up, Congressman Rokane, Democrat of California. He's been here before. He's a really smart and interesting guy, and some of you love him and some of you less so.

But he's always interesting. And I'm going to talk to him about the war and about how he feels about what's happened and what should happen next.

After that, James Bennett will be here. He is the Lexington columnist at the Economist.

And I've known him a long time, super smart guy.

We're also going to talk about how he sees the Iran conflict.

And then finally, rounding out the hour, bringing in a panel of two other smarty pantses,

Democratic strategist, former Biden Harris, Sergeat Kevin Walling, regular on the morning meeting

with me on two-way, and Vin Weber, former Congressman from Minnesota,

partner at the public affairs firm, Mercury, and both also super smart to help us try to figure

out what's what and what's next up. So in a moment, after a quick break, we're going to talk

to Congressman Rocana of California. Rochanna is next up.

Did you know that high blood pressure is the number one risk factor for mortality?

One in two adults has it.

That means there's a 50-50 chance you are a walking time bomb.
