Here he is discussing the Wuhan coronavirus shutdown with Andy Stumpf, who I think is an ex-Seal.
“They’re not showing how we’re going to get out of this.”
“They average American cannot adsorb an unexpected expense over $400.”
“The longer your spend on the computer, the more confused you’ll actually become.”
“People are getting a glimpse of what it’s like to live in the non-first world.”
And a discussion of how the media goes for heart-tugging story angles rather than facts.
Interesting discussion, little in the way of conclusions.
Had to chuckle at his description of t.p. alternatives in a pinch. He said he would sometimes go out on an assignment wearing two socks, and come back wearing one. Or a t-shirt would become a tank top, or no shirt.
His point about a glimpse of how the developing world lives is spot on. Food in stores isn’t always a available. Freedom of movement is subject to the whims of fickle leaders. For starters.
