Thomas Mountain is in a part of the world that has a lot of combat - this episode, he discusses the U.S.-driven sanctions against Eritrea. In the second half of the program, Stephen Gowans assesses the current situation in the Koreas after the death of Kim Jong-il. Despite worries over the North's leadership transition, Gowans asserts that the leaders of the U.S. and South Korea are the ones driving the tensions. Phil and Gowans also revisit elements of Vaclav Havel's biography that are left out of the official remembrances.

The hosts also pass on assessments of Christopher Hitchens, made by Alexander Cockburn and Norman Finkelstein.
