Brad discusses the controversial tattoos of Pete Hegseth and their implications with Spencer Kunz, a PhD student at Florida State University. The conversation covers the history and modern context of Crusader symbols, their usage among alt-right groups, and the concept of sacred hierarchies. The episode also addresses concerns about Hegseth's affiliations with radical far-right ideologies and their potential impact on American society, especially in positions of power like the Department of Defense.
