This is an I-Heart podcast.

Welcome back to a numbers game podcast, Ryan Gurdowski.

Welcome to the very special Ask Me Anything episode.

When Buck Sexson told me to start doing this segment of the show, I was like, okay,

this sounds great, but I got so few questions. My first few weeks, I was texting

friends and coworkers and family members, like, give me a question. I have no one who sent me

questions. And thankfully, that is no longer the case. I have gotten so many questions. We have a

backlog that I want to get to. It is the dead of summer, and I figured, why not have a special episode where I thank the listeners for being with me here and answering some of your questions?

And if you want to be part of Future Ask Me Anything segments of the show at the end of the podcast, email me at Numbersgamepodcast.com.

That's Ryan at Numbers, plural, numbersgamespodcast.com.

I read every email, and I would love to hear from you. So let's go to some listener questions.

First up is Joel from Ohio. I love your show and wish it came out before 7 a.m.

Because I'm often busy and can't get to until later in the day, but today is a slow day.

Anyway, my question has to do with the situation in Iran. My concern is that the Iranian regime will

fall and that there will be chaos in the streets. That's no good for anyone. What I like to see is

a government in exile be formed with the support of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates,

and Israel that's able to take power on day one.

Here's the question.

Is any polling organization asking in its current polls if the pollee would support regime

change in Iran, change in Iran if there was a government in exile waiting for power?

Great question, Joel.

Appreciate it.
