#203: Is Iran the Beginning of World War 3?

For the inaugural episode of Cellar Door Skeptics, the crew gets back together to talk about the recent events unfolding around the Trump Administration's decision to assassinate the General Qassem Soleimani last week. They talk through who he is and what Iran is doing to retaliate for the death of one of their generals. They also dive into an analysis of the reasons behind why Trump would do this as well as a look at what this could mean in the future.
