Episode 6
Tuesday, 17 March, 2026
Have you ever felt disconnected from the decisions that shape our world? Today Lamar and Tom are discussing the tragic loss of six Iowa National Guard members in Kuwait. Their sacrifice reminds us of the heavy toll of conflict and the often confusing nature of war.As they reflect on this, they also consider the broader implications of military actions and the importance of transparency in decision-making. It's vital to stay informed and engaged with these issues that affect us all.What are your thoughts on the disconnect between leadership and we the people, particularly as it relates to the decision to go to war? Leave us a comment. Learn MoreAmericans, more than others, see their fellow citizens as “bad” or “very bad.” How does this play into what is happening in Trump’s decision to go to war? Do we see other non-citizens even worse? Do we consider them even human?
