I am so excited to share this podcast with you guys today, featuring one of my college buddies who happens to be one of the most brilliant human beings I have come across in 36 years, an Air Force veteran named Louis Kishkunas. Louis has spent years serving our country and has come back from two deployments in Afghanistan. Louis is a longtime conservative who calls himself a "Never Trumper."
I called upon Louis to help explain to me the polarization in our country, what last week's tragedy at the Capitol meant to him, and how he sees Inauguration Day going next week.
Of course, I asked him about UFOs and chatter amongst buddies in the Air Force too.
