The Lion and The Sun: A Modern History of Iran – Oriana Coburn
2025 Signal Award Winner: Best History Podcast
Iran’s history has been a never-ending struggle for liberty and independence. In this podcast, we tell the story of how Iran ended up where it is now and how religion, monarchy, democracy, and nationalism all played important roles in defining the lives of its people.
Book One: The Qajars
How the constitutional revolution created Iran’s very first parliament. This season follows the story of the fading Qajar monarchy, as unrest, foreign meddling, and political betrayal set the stage for Reza Khan’s rise to power.
Book Two: Reza Shah
The rise and fall of Reza Shah, the architect of modern Iran. The meteoric rise of Reza Khan from a simple soldier to the founding Shah of the Pahlavi dynasty, his radical transformation of Iran into a modern state, and his ultimate downfall.
Book Three: Oil (January 2026)
Listen to new episodes every other Wednesday.

Their love affair blossoms as they race against the clock to try to solve a mystery that threatens not only the future of Appalachia, but the rest of what remains of civilization.

A Place to Sleep
Do people without housing have a constitutional right to rest?
The controlling court for nine Western states said yes, so now Oregon requires cities to set aside places to sleep.
We sent reporters across the state to see what it’s like to sleep in these sanctioned spaces.

The Precipice of Delusion
My name is Julian Gavilanes. I am an actor, filmmaker and now podcaster in NYC, who has an ever-growing fascination with the artists journey. Furthermore, how they’ve uniquely managed to stick with it through all the inevitable adversity that seems to be a prerequisite for getting to where they want to go.
Many artistic people will say, “you have to be delusional just to believe you even can.” And this show attempts to explore how some of my favorite artists in the world learned to cross over from just believing that they could do this, to actually executing these “impossible” aspirations.
Ideally, through these conversations we will impart some level of valuable insight for all of us who are struggling to keep pushing the rock up the hill. Attempt to find the best skills for prioritizing self-care inside and keeping positivity at the forefront of their hearts. Because at the end of the day, no matter what level you reach–it doesn’t get and easier. It just gets different. But the good news is, you’re not alone. And you’re far from inadequate. So, enjoy the talks and stay inspired!

Robot Unicorn
Join me, Jess VanderWier, a registered psychotherapist, mom of three, and founder of Nurtured First, along with my husband Scott, as we dive deep into the stories of our friends, favourite celebrities, and influential figures.
In each episode, we skip the small talk and dive into vulnerable and honest conversations about topics like cycle breaking, trauma, race, mental health, parenting, sex, religion, postpartum, healing, and loss.
We are glad you are here.
PS: The name Robot Unicorn comes from our daughter. When we asked her what we should name the podcast, she confidently came up with this name because she loves robots, and she loves unicorns, so why not? There was something about the playfulness of the name, the confidence in her voice, and the fact that it represents that you can love two things at once that just felt right.
