Summary

Robbie Martin goes solo on this episode of Media Roots Radio to discuss a wide range of issues and stories that slipped through the cracks on earlier episodes, delving into General Flynn's QAnon oath, Freudian projections of 'classical liberals' like Tim Pool who constantly obsess over what they see as an impending civil war, Tucker Carlson's head writer being fired over comments on a web forum and how his program acts as a pipeline for neocon war propaganda about China. Robbie concludes by going over recent escalations between the US and China and why these asymmetrical warfare maneuvers are largely going under the radar. Thanks for listening!
