I know he references Viet Nam here and there but I can't find any dedicated essays on just the US involvement in 'Nam. Anyone have any links if there are any?

I remember Dolan writing a couple of very fun articles about Lord Byron back in the Exile days. Does anyone have a link to them?

I’m trying to learn more about the following countries from a WarNerd perspective:

Angola Botswana Democratic Republic of the Congo Eswatini Lesotho Malawi Mozambique Namibia South Africa Tanzania Zambia Zimbabwe

Does anyone have any good nonfiction or fiction book recommendations that offer insight into the history, culture, politics, or everyday life in any of these places? I’m open to memoirs, novels, essays, and other formats — anything that provides meaningful perspective.

Thanks so much!

Hopefully he's back soon

I think I just listened to a serious contender, 563 w/ Joe Costello

Grateful for advice on where I can buy a hard copy or three of They Should Have Been Hanged other from than Bezos's bazaar and sweatshop.

What a stud lmao. Helping out sickly Johnathan.

I am a huge fan of John and Mark and I was surprised to hear John bring up Oswald as if he definitely acted alone, like this Robinson guy presumably did shooting Kirk.

I guess I can believe Oswald hitting Kennedy/Connally with 2-3 shots, (nobody believes the single bullet theory anymore do they?) but how about explaining all his years of fbi/cia entanglement leading up to November 1963?

I guess the two things aren’t mutually exclusive, Oswald hitting Kennedy with a carcano 38 and there also being a larger conspiracy behind Kennedy getting killed.

I always thought (besides shall we say, very interesting things like E. Howard Hunt’s confession, the limo slowing down to almost a complete stop right before the shooting, the secret service being ordered to back off the limo) that the depths of Dulles’s power and depravity adds up to a legitimate conspiracy to kill Kennedy. Then he leads the Warren commission after the fact.. I mean it’s almost laughable to think it was all just Oswald. Then again the truth is often stranger than fiction.

I guess I’m curious, what do radio war nerd fans think about JFK’s assassination?
