Discussing recent posts by Austin and Matthew

Austin and Matthew are busy writing to keep the free, independent, and lazily managed substack alive, with two recent articles:

In “The Perils of Shallow Theory Redux,” Austin responds to a recent article by former DoD colleague Erin Dumbacher, who recently wrote “America Doesn’t Need More Nuclear Weapons” in Foreign Affairs.

Matthew Sharp recently wrote “Parity in Arms Control,” where he explores the role parity plays in…arms control (and why it appears in arms control when it does).

Intro/outro music licensed by Soundstripe: “The Iron Curtain” by Wicked Cinema.
