The New Dark Age

Monday, 6 April 2026 — Radhika Desai

Dimitri Lascaris, Award-winning Corporate Lawyer, Activist and Journalist of the Reason2Resist channel joins me for a wide and deep chat on his return from a 10-day trip to Iran during which he felt the pulse of the embattled but brave country and its people. He was already talking to politicians and ordinary people before he became something of a celebrity after his breakdown at witnessing an badly wounded and unconscious child on life support who had lost all her family was videoed and appeared on national TV. Thereafter, people would greet him on the streets, talk and express their thoughts and feelings, about their country, the war and their determination not to give in.

Already impressively informed about the situation with the Iran war before the trip, Dimitri has returned with a deeper and broader insight into its human, cultural and spiritual elements and sharpened his political analysis.
