In This Episode:
James and Al attack the cruelty of Trump’s immigration policy and his administration’s growing authoritarianism before welcoming Admiral James Stavridis. They discuss the foreign policy challenge posed by China’s Belt and Road Initiative, the future of warfare as we move away from human armies toward robots and drones, and why aircraft carriers are essential and timeless in a world with threats in multiple theaters of action. Then, they explore leadership lessons from history and culture, spanning Mario Puzo’s The Godfather to direct written experiences from soldiers in the Civil War.
