Stay ConnectedPopular Front is a grassroots media network that focuses solely on war and conflict. We go deeper than mainstream media in a way that makes important war coverage accessible for everyone. The podcast focuses on the niche details of modern warfare and under-reported conflict.

We speak to John Arterbury, an analyst with his eyes firmly set on Yemen. He tells us how the war started, the current crossroads both sides are at, and his theories on why this conflict, where children regularly starve to death, goes so under-reported.

I'm away filming a documentary for Popular Front this week and didn't have time to get the planned episode ready in time. To avoid going a week without Popular Front I've used one of the Patreon bonus episodes to fill the void. It's the first and last time we'll do this.
We'll hear from Abu Academic, who claims to be former Russian special forces. He's now using the skills he claims to have learned in Russia to train HTS jihadist fighters in Syria.
