In this episode, Nate and Francis make the argument that there is no military failsafe in which uniformed services can rescue a failed civilian response to the current pandemic. Or, to put it succinctly: hospital ships are nice, if you live near the coast. What about everyone else? We also discuss the recent news that the President is recalling IRR and reservists back to active service (https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2020/03/28/trump-approves-ordering-former-us-troops-active-duty-assist-coronavirus-response/), although at present it’s completely voluntary.
This week’s bonus features Francis interviewing two therapists from Game to Grow, an organization that helps provide therapy via tabletop gaming. It’s a fascinating topic and we really hope you enjoy it. Get it on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/35404032
