We (Darryl Cooper & Scott Horton) answer audience questions about our research and writing methods, including how we build from survey books, follow bibliographies, take notes, and draft by producing more material than we keep. We also discuss current and historical foreign policy topics such as Yemen, Gaza, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Afghanistan, with attention to how U.S. and regional actors are described in those conflicts. We also talk about evaluating political and media figures, including the importance of checking claims against background and source material. Later, we discuss libertarian ideas, campaign finance, the Fed, and the limits of principle-only politics, then move into Christianity and ethics, including charity, humility, and responsibility toward others.
