We’ve been focused on the War in Ukraine since before it started. But you’ve never heard our bonus content, that has until now been Patreon exclusive. It’s a little lighter than our regular stuff—and will help you get an idea of how the people on the front lines and in the center of the pressure cooker are keeping themselves sane and focused. From the food they miss back home, to the drinks they’re looking forward to, to memories of times that seem like a million years ago, these clips will take you behind the scenes and deeper into conversations with fascinating and impactful leaders at the epicenter of the most important elements of the war in Ukraine. A Navy SEAL Commander on tactics and weapons of the war, a best-selling author just back from training Ukrainian civilians to fight, to the Professor of Nukes. These are real leaders and real talk about the biggest news story of our time.
