So you always know what's coming next up.
Hello and welcome in, everybody, and welcome to NextUp.
I'm Mark Kalprin, editor-in-chief of the live interactive video platform Two-Way and your guide to everything coming up in real time and in the future, everything that's coming next up.
I'm glad you're here.
A lot to talk about in the midst of the conflict with Iran and a great guest to share with you, Rand Paul, the senator from Kentucky, whose views are different on many issues from a lot of his colleagues and who speaks for tens of millions.
I'm always grateful for his time with him.
to hear his point of view, which is so underrepresented on so many topics.
So Rand Paul will be here in a minute.
But first, I'm going to give you my reported monologue talking to people in the United States and around the world about the status of the conflict with Iran.
The mission is righteous, and the goal of making sure Iran is not a threat is shared by so many.
But this complexity of what's happened in the last few days has turned me concerned, not about the bravery and strength of America's men, American men and women's fighting strength, but about the challenge of reopening the Strait of Hormuz and the other things that have gone on in the last 36 hours or so.
I'm going to share with you my reporting on why this has raised the level of concern about where things are now.
It's a snapshot of the moment and where they might be headed.
Take a quick break.
When we come back, my reported monologue on the status of the conflict with Iran.
That's next up.
