One V One: Deep State

Surprise! Early episode drop but don't be fooled, we're still doing every other week, just wanted to start releasing closer to when we record. We open the show with some Olympics talk and clear up some Twitter beef about Simone Biles' decision to pull out of some events, and our main topic this week is China's Soft Power creep and what the USA can do to curb their influence domestically.
