August 07, 2024 Ep 22: My Iraq Story (Part 6). Epilogue: Funny--and not so funny--stories.
In this latest episode of Headlines and History we finish our series on my time in Iraq by discussing some leftover funny, and not-so-funny, tales.

July 31, 2024 Ep 21: My Iraq Story (Part 5). Iraq in 2005
In this latest episode of Headlines and History we continue our series on my time in Iraq by discussing the overall environment in 2005 and which events shaped the threat landscape. Tactics were changing, voting was happening, and foreign fighters were slaughtering civilians. The sectarian violence that began in late 2005 led directly to the decision to surge forces in the next couple years. Enjoy!

July 24, 2024 Ep 20: My Iraq Story (Part 4). Daily Duties and Murder
In this latest episode of Headlines and History we continue our series on my time in Iraq by discussing what daily life was like during Operation Iraqi Freedom III. I also cover the most tragic event of our deployment and quite possible, the most tragic of the whole war. We learned all too keenly that defending Americans from the enemy was hard enough but not as hard as defending Americans against ourselves.

July 10, 2024 Ep 18: My Iraq Story (Part 2). Fort Drum and Why Bush Did It
In this latest episode of Headlines and History we continue our series on my time in Iraq by discussing pre-deployment training at Fort Dum, NY, while considering why President George W. Bush sent us in the first place. I'll discuss some interesting stories like living in World War II barracks with moldy bathrooms, lieutenants tellings senior enlisted members to "at ease" in front of hundreds, and poking training land mines with sticks in a volleyball court.

June 26, 2024 Ep 16: The TikTok Threat
This week's episode is all about TikTok. I conducted a YouTube live event on Saturday, June 22nd, and am republishing the talk here. In it I discuss why TikTok is not alone (that potentially all Chinese-owned technology companies are a problem), how the United States is not the only country concerned with its data collection strategies, and how American companies are using your data differently. Enjoy!

In this episode we explore Niger's latest military coup, what it means for Africa and relations with Russia, China, and the United States. We discuss why Niger is prone to military coups--seven constitutions in about 60 years--and what, if anything, can be done about it, and if the United States will maintain relations with Niger in the coming years.
