This was supposed to be an episode with a detailed, thought-out script. However, we got on the topic of bad weather and the state of Alaska, and by the end of it we found we'd devoted 40 minutes to The Last Frontier. So, it's more of a DadChat than anything else!

We do discuss a recent video of terrible CQB training at 10th Mountain, and why you should probably stop training if it looks like your soldiers are going to shoot each other (this conversation starts at 39:43). You can watch the video yourself here: https://twitter.com/woobie_1_kenobi/status/1363529993788272646?s=19

For this week's bonus, we've got Carey and Joe back to have yet another zoo crew session, this time to discuss (among other things) the way that video games become popular representations of American military history. This (and all DadChat / Zoo Crew episodes) are available on the Patreon for $1 a month. Get it here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/47841741
