BLIMEY! It's our very first INTERNATIONAL EDITION of the #POOLIGANS & Friends podcast, wherein we warm up to our first ever British guest -- but don't let his kind, soft-spoken tone fool you: @threpney_witt is a lifelong soldier who's seen it all. After insights into NATO, Brexit and the US-UK relationship, we're joined by #POOLIGANS faves @denisetut and @hebrewhomie to discuss yet another utterly insane week of politics, the finer points of attending Burning Man, an update on stealth-building the border wall, British hill giants pointing due north and photo ops with real life tigers. Thanks for listening and CHEERIO!
