Iranians React to the Death of Ayatollah Khamenei

March, 1 2026, 8 AM; Cheers were heard from large crowds of Iranians in several cities following the confirmed death of Iranian supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. In the U.S., Iranian-Americans took to the streets in cities like Los Angeles and Washington D.C. to celebrate the blow to the Iranian Islamic regime. While there were celebrations taking shape, there were also scenes of mourning from the leader's fiercely loyal base. Thousands of pro-government supporters gathered in Tehran to memorialize Khameni. Through the split screen of emotions, questions remain on what powerbase will emerge now that the man who ruled iran with an iron fist for nearly four decades is gone. Former CIA Director John Brennan joins The Weekend to discuss how the attacks have affected Iranians around the globe.

Symone Sanders Townsend and Eugene Daniels first became friends over decade ago, as they built careers at the intersection of society and politics. Symone’s work inside administrations and campaigns thrust her into the culture wars, helping candidates navigate the minefields of identity, symbolism, and optics. At “Politico” and “Morning Joe,” Eugene decoded how pop culture shapes — and sometimes skewers — political figures. On “Clock It with Symone & Eugene,” they invite listeners and guests into their personal groupchat. They talk about politics (think Nikole Hannah-Jones on civil rights!); they talk about arts and culture (Tony Goldwyn, aka President Fitz from “Scandal,” drops by!); and they talk about how all of it comes together to shape our lives. This is where you can stay tapped in without burning out. Because on “Clock It,” you get a look at the world in Symone and Eugene’s signature style: off-the-cuff, engaging, and always with a dose of fun. New episodes drop Thursdays.
