S2E23 – In this episode, Kent and Kyle explore the pitfalls of “my guy vs. your guy” politics and how single issues can shift political loyalties. They debate potential endgames for the Russia–Ukraine war, examine Israel’s strategy in Gaza, and consider how historical legacies shape modern conflicts. They draw on parallels from the Vietnam War and Ho Chi Minh’s leadership, questioning whether political change is driven by individuals or deeper systemic forces. Other topics they touch on include U.S. gerrymandering, the urban–rural political divide, and the stark differences between Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
