About this episode
Iraq vet Mark Hendricks joins me again to talk about the lives lost there, the pointlessness of the mission, and the lies that led us there. This is a more somber episode than usual, but we felt it was worth doing, and we hope you find it worth listening.
ps. I'm a complete dumbass! Not only due to my ignorance on this topic, but also because I MESSED UP THE RECORDING! We recorded in my studio, each with a mic, but I recorded 2 tracks of my own mic, and none of Mark's. This means I had to use my mic for him as well, and it's pretty rough. You've been warned.
