Episode 13: Andrew and Jerry Save The Truth!

We're living in a post-truth world, and this presents huge problems for society at large. Andrew and Jerry are joined by conservative activist and real-life "Cold Warrior" Bill Pascoe for an in-depth look at America's obligation to push back against totalitarianism.

As the debate over the nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court rages on, Andrew and Jerry open with a discussion of this week's hearings, and why what we've substantively learned (as opposed to Judge Jackson's LSAT scores) is of paramount importance. Once again, some libertarians have demonstrated their myopic view of the world.

Then we have a deep discussion with Bill Pascoe, the Tea Party Patriots' "Man in Washington" - someone who was literally on the ground as the battles that hastened the end of the Cold War were happening, and he lends that perspective to the Russia - Ukraine conflict. We celebrate the legacy of Robert Krieble, and the covert strategy to bring down the Soviet Union. We talk about Russian misinformation and disinformation, and how so many Americans seemed to be getting "played".

Finally, we talk music... and who is the greatest rock guitarist ever. What concerts are we all looking forward to? And how do you spot kindred spirits in the workplace?
