Donald and Diana are joined by special guest, Judge Phillip Journey, a Republican running for re-election for the Division 1 judge of the Kansas Eighteenth Judicial District. Phil is also a board member of the National Rifle Association (NRA), which boasts 5 million members and is arguably the most potent activist organisation in the US.

In this episode, we chat to Phil about:

- the politicisation of judicial appointments in the US

- why Americans won't lay down their guns as Australians did after the Port Arthur massacre

- his view of the nation's priorities in the wake of the 2020 Presidential Election, no matter who wins.

We're incredibly grateful to have Phil share his candid insights with us on Greenland (and some tips for buddying sports gun enthusiasts).
