What insights does Ryan McBeth share about the future of warfare?
people have asked me how this thing's gonna end russian ukraine it's gonna end one of two ways either russia fails as a nation because they just physically can't keep up with the war number two there is some sort of peace plan put into place russia doesn't get crimea back they don't get the dunbas back there's peacekeepers in dunbas maybe for non-aligned nations whatever that's the other way some sort of negotiated settlement ukraine doesn't get everything they want and russia doesn't get everything they want i actually believe that second option
Okay, guys, third time's the charm. We got Ryan. Not many guests make it on three times, man, so thank you. Pour up a glass. Outstanding. So I absolutely love rye whiskey. Oh, wait, could you keep the mic closer? And I hope you enjoy. Cheers, brother. May you be in heaven, Temnus, for the devil knows you're dead. Is this the bottle I got you the first time you came on, or is this a different brand? It's the same brand. I only drink this. I only drink Angel's. I remember you requested it. I was like, what is that? Okay, it tastes really good. It is deliciousness in a bottle.
How does Ryan McBeth address criticisms and controversies?
And you can keep this. Thank you. This is absolutely wonderful. Thank you. Sure some guests would enjoy that, so thank you.
What are the geopolitical implications of the Russia-Ukraine conflict?
It tastes really good, I will say. I love this. Smooth, very smooth.
What historical events shape our understanding of current conflicts?
I wouldn't even need anything else. No. I mean, I put a rock in it just to make it a little bit cold. Yeah, I love this. Well done. I love rye whiskey. New book, obviously, Last Republic. That's why you're on another pod run, right? Yeah, that's why I'm traveling all throughout the Southwest. Last Republic was a book I wrote that imagines Brigham Young, the Mormon pioneer and prophet. He envisioned creating an entire country instead of just the territory of Utah. Initially, they were thinking about doing that because the Mormons got kicked out of every place they ever went. They just wanted to be left alone. And so this book kind of imagined an alternate history where he actually did that and what happens 170 years later when they clash with America.
Well, that book's been out for about six months.
How are drones changing the dynamics of modern combat?
I started writing a sequel and I have to research various areas. So I flew into Arizona. Mm-hmm. I researched Winslow, Arizona, which is going to be the site of the big battle in my next book.
How is AI being utilized in military operations today?
And then I'm going to Las Vegas because I'm here with my brother. Yeah. And then I'm heading up to Salt Lake City to do a bunch of research, look into some archives and look at the Pioneer Museum where you can see. I've been to the Pioneer Museum before. It was 10 years ago, but it has all the artifacts from the Mormon exodus. Hmm.
What role does intelligence play in modern warfare?
uh the hand carts that they had you know some of these guys they they marched without shoes either because they wore out their shoes or they wanted to save their shoes for a new life in utah wow you know they marched through the snow barefoot jeez like it was um if you read about the mormon exodus it's actually pretty fascinating and people ask me are you a mormon like no but i'm just their number one fan i asked you about it I've often said we would have a harder time protecting America without the LDS church based in America. Whoa. And you want to know why now, don't you? That's a hot take. I want to know why. Because so many LDS go away for a mission. So Latter-day Saints, they go away for a two-year mission.
Right. And they go to a host country and they learn the language of that host country. They live in that host country. And when they come back- they have this language skill. Now, they don't send them to Arab countries, Muslim, predominantly Muslim countries. They don't do that. They do send them to Hong Kong, so they learn Chinese and Russia. So if you need to speak, if you need someone who speaks Bantu, Odds are there was an LDS missionary who went to South Africa and learned the language, and he returned back home. Wow. And joined the Army. And so there is a unit in Utah. I believe it's a Utah National Guard unit. I think it's an intelligence brigade. I can't remember the darn nomenclature of the brigade.
