Global Outlook

The duo discuss Madeline Albright's recent death. And then Bobby explains the Russians' process for actually using a nuke. They close off discussing the possible outcomes for Putin being removed from power.

Update on the conflict and the international affairs surrounding it. Paul's back with an apology regarding hawkery and its new liberal appeal. 

Paul didn't write an agenda so the duo got sucked into a long debate about the morality of the American nation state. They get off topic and go in circles but the argument cuts to the heart of the debate between leftist and liberals on foreign affairs. 

After 4 days of war in Ukraine, the duo returns to provide updates about the conflict.

The Russian military is launching a full scale invasion of Ukraine. This is a tragic catastrophe for the Ukrainian people. Rob and Paul react to the news and information around the war.  

Rob and Paul make predictions about the developments in Ukraine. Paul goes after lazy media who took a tragic story in a sensational and topical direction instead of asking hard question about systemic issues. Paul also tells a story from black history about Eluard Luchell McDaniel to celebrate February 

Russia and China improve relations and the possibility of a Russo-Sino alliance set to rival NATO is today's focal point. How has Ukraine and Taiwan played a role in this? Will Africa become the next cold war proxy arena? 

Rob is back to discuss the situation in Ukraine. Paul and Rob joke around about their personal lives as well. (music credit - Less than Jake - Surrender)

Paul gives a debrief on the situation in Ukraine. What do the Russians want? What's going down? 

Bobby is out this week, so Paul goes solo on his origin story. This is his attempt to explain his thought process for the benefit of his friends and family who likely wonder how he became an anarcho-whatever or think he's a little "out-there" with some of his ideas.
