Next Episode: S01E12 - Should abortion be legal?
In our first addendum episode, Josh and Ryan revisit their discussion about Afghanistan and whether the US should be leaving. Both admit to being very conflicted about the whole situation. There is clearly a lack of information about what is happening and what has happened in Afghanistan. Josh raises some important questions: Was the Afghan military capable of fighting? And, if the US has hundreds of permanent military bases around the world, why couldn't they keep one in Afghanistan? We end with more questions than answers, recognizing that this is really a humanitarian disaster.
