My friend Scott Urquhart stops by to not only discuss the war in Ukraine but also his experiences elsewhere in the world. We discuss many of the problems arising in the US and the loss of sanity and values. At one point in the interview the power goes out and he shares with us his body armor necessary for the front lines of the conflict. We swap stories of growing up and how questioning authority changed our lives. This is a fun and exciting conversation with a brave and inquisitive human being!
