This week on Bombshell we talk with Mieke Eoyang about, well, basically everything. We take a rapid fire tour of political dramas in Zimbabwe, Germany, Saudi Arabia, and Lebanon. Stop for a bit to bask in the crazy sunshine of Turkish plots and then return to the United States just to ask: Exactly how many troops do we have overseas? Then just for kicks, we debate what a lawful order for a nuclear first strike would look like. We wrap up with Mieke's Twitter conversation with John Cusack and Erin's dream for a Master and Commander sequel.   Episode Reading Ben Freeman and Mieke Eoyang, "," Third Way Sisonke Msimang, "," New York Times Von Marcus Gatzke and Marlies Uken, "," Zeit Online Andreas Rinke and Madeline Chambers, ," Reuters Marwa Eltagouri, "," Washington Post Erin Cunningham and Louisa Loveluck, "," Washington Post Thomas L.
