  • Great episode.

    Great episode, Rebecca Burgess: Soldier-Citizens and Citizen-Soldiers: Spiritedness and the Constitution.

    A politically neutral military is a pillar of our country.

    Despite Article 88 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, our active duty & retired general & flag officers are publicly partisan in open letters & public speeches.

    A US military that is unable to police itself to publicly remain politically neutral, is a danger to our constitutional republic.

  • Please ditch the partisan ax grinding

    I listen for engaging content on international affairs. Please cut the partisan dirt flinging — it cheapens the IWP organization.

  • Fine content, poor audio

    I periodically enjoy relevant and timely topics, but content is sometimes dry. Often important things that are not covered elsewhere. But please improve the audio quality. It’s an embarrassment.
