Modern-day Olympics started in the early 20th century, and since its inception have been an incredibly politicized event.

One of the most important stories around the world no one is talking about or even heard of!
The conflict in Myanmar, formerly known nas Burma, has been exponentially digressing since the beginning of the military coup in February 2021.
Burma has a history of military occupation, which is the reason behind their historic neglect of their largest industries and infrastructure.
After a democratic shift in the late 90's early 2000's there were significant changes in the country and it looked like a bright democratic future for the country.

In February 2021, certain military leaders orchestrated a political coup alleging voter fraud in the preceding democratic elections.
They then systematically arrested and tortured the leaders of the democratic leading political party [The National League for Democracy] and arrested Aung San Suu Kyi the de facto leader of the party and the country.

This week the boys talk about an incredibly important crisis today.

Did Derrick Chauvin follow protocol before the knee?
Before an official local police force was formed, local guards used to be either a hired militia by which ever entity ruled over a region, senate, monarchs, or oligarch; OR a collective of local, usually armed, people who felt a need to protect their neighborhoods.
The first official metropolitan police station was established in 1829 in England by Sir Robert Peel.
The century-old marker of civilized society, security (and the organizations society establishes to enforce that security), eventually evolved into the local and federal policing organizations that each country has.
The conversation on policing is indeed a global topic, since most protocol and processes are quite similar across the map.
But we focused on the US, specifically the circumstances in and around the unlawful death of George Floyd.
This week we discuss the state of policing in our country and the implications of emerging excessive force trends in urban communities.
