In this final episode of Season 1, we are joined by former intelligence officer Evan Egger to discuss the transition to the Train, Advise, and Assist strategy that started in 2015. We talk about the 20 year failure to understand our allies and the kind of "hypernormalisation" that set in during the latter days of the war.
We will be on hiatus until the end of October to research new topics and plan a more "professional" season 2. We thank you for all of your support over the past few months and have a lot of good things coming at the end of the year. We will remain active on all the social media sites listed below.
NOTE: This episode suffered some issues during the recording process and we lost one of our host's audio tracks. Additionally, our guest's audio has a noticeable popping that we could not fix due to the lack of availability of individual audio tracks. We apologize for this, but if you can bear with it, you're in for one hell of a conversation.
