Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO late-night series Real Time with Bill Maugh.

Well, we're on overtime overseas. Now, I have to say I'm partly doing this because I'm going to be touring overseas there in Europe in May.

Sweden, a place I'm going, just cancelled an arms deal agreement with Saudi Arabia. Why isn't the US doing the same?

Could it have something to do with oil? No.

No, it's our love of their social policies.

I mean, no. I mean, when you look at the map and you see this Yemen thing and why did all the Sunni countries get involved?

Because if you look at the map, well, the oil goes through the straits of her mousse, which Iran controls.

And these hoodies are Iranian back. If they control Yemen, then they control the one through the Red Sea.

This is all about oil. When oil gets involved, people care. But I always say, I wish we had learned the lesson of the first Gulf War,

which is if you're going to invade a country for oil, get some oil.

The oil.

Zaka, Rekwinta, what can you tell us about your role in the movie about Edward Snowden?

Oh, yeah. Well, I'm playing Glenn Greenwald too.

Oh. It's been a frequent contributor here in many other places.

I'm really looking forward to it getting ready to go to Hong Kong and...

I'm not knowing that you've got this movie. This is...

Oliver Stone's directing it. He's written it.

Oliver Stone. I love Oliver Stone.

I know. Me too. I'm really excited about it.

And to play Glenn, who's so prolific and has such a really articulate and fixed point of view on everything that he's done with Snowden

and around exposing the NSA's overreaching is interesting for me.

Yeah. I'm really stupid, but I'm really glad.
