Why did the Marines make a video that basically says you should join in order to be less online? Why did the Army arrest a chaplain in Kuwait for wearing headphones? Why do we think it’s unlikely that anyone will ever fully withdraw troops from Iraq and Afghanistan? This week, we dive into all of these, and more.

 

Here is the article about the Kuwait arrest: https://www.armytimes.com/off-duty/military-culture/2020/11/17/army-national-guard-chaplain-deployed-to-kuwait-detained-by-mps-for-wearing-headphones/?fbclid=IwAR0bF14CqriZpJ0qQD-271NPWderXAe1erHyTXk4FZvyhl41uCY2R_TqtRs

 

For this week’s bonus, Francis brought Joe and Shocks back on to discuss Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Despite being a sci-fi author, Joe had never watched it -- so now we get to talk all about it, to include the weird tropes that the Ferengi represent, Chief O'Brien's constant use of creative slurs for the Romulans, and much more.
