This week Travis and Seena talk through some of the shadow consequences of the war, the fallout that isn’t covered on the evening news. Have you heard a lot about the Iranian F-5(!) that bombed a US military base in Kuwait? Yeah, us either. They also dig into Russia’s many inroads into the conflict. Are they an unintentional winner of this shitshow? You bet.
