[♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪

Welcome back to Paz de the World, I'm Tommy Vitor.

I'm Ben Rhodes.

Ben, we are recording a little bit earlier this week because I'm taking next week off.

When you all hear this, I should be somewhere in France, maybe

donning a yellow vest.

Doing a little field research?

Yeah, me and Macron, we're going to go protests, we're going to go now.

I was just some R&R with my wife.

But because we care so much about the world, and we love doing this, we're going to do a

very special Paz de the World Mailbag edition.

Yeah, and later in the show, I'll be talking to Congressman Rokana,

who is emerged as one of the leading progressive voices in Congress,

standing out to the Trump administration on Yemen, on Iran, and the number of things.

So we'll be talking about what a progressive foreign policy looks like.

So these are questions that you all sent in on social media.

We are very grateful to all the questions.

Those were not easy questions.

Yeah, we're all those.

Right, they brought it.

Man, they really brought it.

It's like, holy shit, I got to do some research here.
