This week, Nate speaks with Army veteran and author Matt Gallagher (@MattGallagher0 ) about being a veteran writer in the age of online, about his recent NYT op-ed discussing Trump’s trip to Iraq, about how he got his start as an Army blogger writing from Iraq, and how Claire Vaye Watkins’ Battleborn changed his perception of his hometown.
