EP:60 - Soviet America
About this episode
The episode discusses various topics including the Oklahoma City bombing, recent events in Iran and Syria, and listener questions.
In this episode, we discuss the Idaho fire season and how close a blaze came to Darryl's home, as well as the recent Tom Woods cruise, an unexpected meeting with Yakov Smirnoff, and Dave Smith’s debate performance. We then spend much of the episode on the Oklahoma City bombing and a new documentary series, focusing on informants, media narratives, and how the story shaped our views. We also react to reporting on Iran that discusses a possible ground invasion and troop recruitment ideas, and we connect that to broader concerns about escalating war planning. Finally, we discuss Syria, where the U.S. has removed the al-Qaeda-led government from its terrorism list, and we end with listener questions about debates, Israel-Palestine, and continuing to argue these issues publicly.
