Episode 172: War against Iran, Culture War against the Vatican, War Crimes... and good news about British Beavers

Van Badham and Ben Davison survive Trump’s threat of nuclear was to discuss the Hungarian election and Viktor Orbán’s illiberal rule and its EU/Ukraine implications. They then explore Trump’s escalation with Iran, chaotic U.S. decision-making, international peace efforts, and whether it was wise for Trump to declare a culture war against the actual Vatican. How does this relate to the Ben Roberts‑Smith civil and criminal proceedings - beyond the broader need for military accountability in democratic societies? You’ll have to listen to find out… but the good news is all about beavers. GO THE BEEVS!!
