Dig This!
Daniele Bolelli the fabulous host of “History on Fire” and I fanboy out over archaeology. We had some inexplicable audio problems at times with the recording, so hopefully that doesn't detract from the greatness of the guest.

True appreciation
I can’t express in my limited vocabulary how very grateful I am to have the opportunity to listen and enjoy all episodes by Dan . He has a true gift.
Asymmetrical perspectives
One of the most biased, out of touch, and plainly stupid podcast episodes I have ever heard. The guest makes repeated flippant remarks about covid vaccines (which have now been roundly and widely discredited) and makes asinine and presumptive arguments about the future of asymmetric war, and he does it in SUCH a short timespan before we see a return to large scale nation-state war between Ukraine and Russia! A notion he totally discredits! No need for tanks? Ask either side about that one. Max’s assertions are so far off base they nearly completely discredit everything he says, and frankly, it hurts Dan’s credibility to have allowed him on. What a complete embarrassment for both max and Dan, and if max is part of mil think-tanks, no wonder America has performed so poorly in the last few wars we’ve engaged in. What an abortion of a show.
