For day three of The Realignment's near-daily Ukraine coverage, Marshall spoke with Dr. David Kilcullen, a theorist and practitioner of guerilla and unconventional warfare. They cover the present state of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and whether the conflict could transition into a drawn-out war of resistance/insurgency.

Dr. Kilcullen's perspective is drawn from a 25-year career in the Australian Army and postings to the U.S. Defense and State Departments during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

He is a professor at Arizona State University and the University of New South Wales and the author of The Dragon and the Snakes: How the Rest Learned to Fight the West, The Ledger: Accounting for Failure in Afghanistan, Out of the Mountains: The Coming Age of the Urban Guerilla, Counterinsurgency, and The Accidental Guerilla: Fighting Small Wars in the Midst of a Big One.

Jimmy Soni, author of The Founders: The Story of PayPal and the Entrepreneurs Who Shaped Silicon Valley, joins The Realignment to discuss how the PayPal mafia of Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, David Sacks, Reid Hoffman, and countless others shaped Silicon Valley.

Hey everyone, just wanted to say that we pre-recorded tomorrow’s episode on PayPal, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine began. Our producer’s going to be out of pocket, so we weren’t able to record an alternate episode.

However, starting Wednesday, March 2nd, we’re going to significantly up our coverage of the Ukraine crisis.

On Thursday, we’re going to host another Q&A/reaction show, so please send anything to [email protected].

Yesterday afternoon, Marshall and Saagar recorded an emergency podcast reacting to Putin's invasion of Ukraine and answered audience questions.
