22:09Now PlayingOn the April 2, 2026, update of the Strait of Hormuz, we discuss three ships running the southern Strait in Omani waters. Does this signify a change in shipping? What is the US policy toward the Strait of Hormuz. We talked with a merchant mariner who just returned from the Persian Gulf and what is it like onboard, what is the relationship with the US military, and why were cadets from the US Merchant Marine Academy still onboard ships in the region. Finally, we look at the latest UNCTAD report on the impact of the closure.
