On this episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt delve into the Ukraine war, with Scott providing his in depth analysis of the potentially catastrophic situation. We also talk about the history leading up to the war, how it was provoked, how it could’ve been prevented, and how we can stop it. Scott also provides some insight into possible solutions to the current nuclear threat and the history of previously similar situations throughout history. (Length: 1:13:51)
