Ep. 217: New World Order: Do Good. (Ft. John Lamberger & Connor Moore)

Our guests are matriculating masters students studying Internal Security at the Josef Korbel School of Global and Public Affairs at the University of Denver.  One is a veteran of our armed forces (Oorah), the other a veteran of Sean’s Top-Shelf antics & sarcasm.  Please welcome what we around these parts (a garage on the internet) consider to be subject matter experts: John Lamberger & Connor Moore!

Follow their project MoorePosts.com & follow them on socials @mooreposts — Their new podcast with actual subject matter experts (ya know, nuclear physics, etc.) is called: ‘Sheepland’ Drops this week!  Listen to it when it drops & give them a follow to see who they interview next. 

We discussed everything from why Fanta (yes, the drink) was an important matter of strategic intelligence & national security, to America’s soft-power capitalism, debate protesting & effective outcomes for good governance, and the departing shift from the established US foreign policy paradigm since WWII.  It’s pens, fences, and John’s thematic lens, leading us to the conclusion that if they has to be a ‘New World Order’ it should be simple: Do Good. 

You can support our show powered on blood, sweat, and tears, over at: Patreon.com/InTALLerable — bonus episodes, EATIN’ with our guests, Black Box lost tapes.. Join the growing ‘Heights’

Thanks to all our wonderful supporters & listeners. 

Be kind to someone out there for me.
