## Resource

After celebrating a local city getting rid of Flock traffic cameras, Nate describes voting for Graham Platner in the Maine Senate primary. Next, the boys turn their attention to the war by discussing Professor Robert Pape’s comparison of Iran to the rise of the Prussian Empire in the 1800s. Finally, the appearance of a “noetic” scientist on the Joe Rogan program sparks a fascinating inquiry into the nature of magic and its relationship to political power.
