David Gornoski is the host of the Orlando-based “A Neighbor’s Choice” radio program on WFLA 93.1 FM and 540 AM.
David is a proponent of Rene Girard’s Mimetic Theory, so Pete asked him to come on the show today to give a primer on the subject.

You’ve heard me mention ‘Collapsitarianism” briefly but I thought it was time we got into it. Twitter ‘superstar’ Skip joins me to give a primer into how he is planning for the eventual bottoming out of the dollar, and what we have to look forward to afterwards.
From the Jerusalem Post:
The prime minister said that, “whoever is against a Palestinian state should be for” transferring the funds to Gaza, because maintaining a separation between the PA in the West Bank and Hamas in Gaza helps prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state.
So, obviously I’m having terrible server problems that so far no genius under the sun can figure out or fix.
So I’m going to throw in the towel and try to hire a company to host all the sites and shows.

Todd Schramke, along with his partner Kim Kylland, are the producers of the documentary Stateless, which was mentioned on Episode 224 of this podcast in which Thaddeus Russell gave us an account of his interview with Lily Forester after the murder of her partner, John Galton, in Acapulco.
Todd wanted to come on to clear up some “errors” he saw in Thad’s detailing of the events.
A discussion is had about the documentary itself and its genesis, and we get into a lot about what the community in Acapulco is like.

Pete invited Iraq/Afghanistan War Vet, and former Border Patrol Agent Joshua Childress to come on the show.
After coming home from the wars, Joshua joined the southern Border Patrol. After hearing podcasts like Thaddeus Russell’s and Brett Veinotte’s, and reading Scott Horton’s ‘Fool’s Errand,’ Joshua decided to leave the border patrol.
Joshua talks about a multitude of issues but Pete concentrates on the mindset of an order taker, and an order giver.
The judge says contempt of court, off to jail.
By the way, here’s the Afghan and Iraq War Logs and State Department Cables. Why not do some drugs and stay up late reading them tonight?

U.S. General: Current Conditions ‘Don’t Merit’ Troop Withdrawal From Afghanistan
U.S. Army General Joseph Votel, head of the U.S. Central Command, has said that the current political situation in Afghanistan and the status of negotiations with the Taliban currently under way “don’t merit” a troop withdrawal, despite President Donald Trump’s goal of a drawdown.
“These decisions have to be based more on conditions than specific times” and must “pivot off political progress,” Votel said during a House Armed Services Committee hearing in Washington on March 7.
Didn’t Votel get the memo? The plan is already to stay forever.
