Anyway, check out a human therapist at betterhelp.com slash lex and save in your first month. That's betterhelp.com slash lex. This episode is also brought to you by NetSuite, an all-in-one cloud business management system. The more I study war, of course, the more I study business too, but war... the more I realize the importance of the organizational layer, of the supply chain, of the logistics, the stuff that nobody talks about, the stuff that most historians don't talk about.

And he's one of the historians that does look at the logistics, does look at the logistics details of how everything is run.
