The Antihero Broadcast – March 4, 2026

Episode: IRAN WAR CORRESPONDENT – Conservative Chocolate

Episode Overview

This episode of The Antihero Broadcast features a deep dive into the state of the Iran war, U.S. foreign policy, Jewish-American/Middle Eastern geopolitics, and associated conspiracy theories. The show is hosted by Tyler and Mike, who welcome their recurring contributor “Conservative Chocolate” (CC) – a self-described Jewish, Black National Guard infantryman, and their "geopolitical Iran war correspondent." The discussion covers breaking news from the region, historical context, and a raw, irreverent take on current events, catered to U.S. veterans, first responders, and blue-collar Americans. The hosts also navigate the challenges of producing “uncensored” alternative media amid crackdowns on free speech and increasing scrutiny from tech platforms and U.S. laws.
