I’m going to steal this Triad today to talk about Bulwark podcast “The Shield of the Republic” in light of the discussion of Taiwan and China. How did I miss the launch of this cuttingly insightful podcast? I found it by accident when I was trying to take advantage of the no commercial versions of the regular pods.

Eliot Cohen and Eric Edelman know their foreign affairs stuff. Yes, really! Eliot taught at the Naval War College and was the director of policy planning for the Defense Dept. Eric talks the talk and walks the walk about nuclear weapons (Thanks, POTUS, for giving me a good scare!) and is a former ambassador. Both of them are what I’d call “in the room at the time” guys.

They speak with authority because they have the authority to speak. Even if you have little interest in our foreign relations or in our military (like me), check them out. Thank you, Bulwark for hosting this podcast. Off to go review them on Apple podcasts now.
