A new edition of the Roqe Roundtable with Pegah and Raha joining Jian in the Roqe Studio, and journalist Nikahang Kowsar joining from Washington DC. Topics for this week include: (1) Whether Ayatollah Khamenei should be suspended from X (formerly Twitter); (2) The release of Toomaj Salehi and what it says about the state of the uprising in Iran; (3) Iranian’s use and proclivity towards Instagram filters; and (4) Reza Pahlavi’s recent major interview and ideological positioning. Plus, Jian shares a story about his day old coffee and how the universe intervened to tell him to stop microwaving his caffeine fixes.
