What a Hell of a Way to Dad


Nov 4, 2021

We get to the point at 23:04!

This week, we’re discussing horror stories of Army physical training, inspired by this article (https://taskandpurpose.com/news/army-holistic-health-fitness-82nd-airborne/) in which the Army apparently confronts the fact that its previous approaches to physical training completely wreck people’s bodies. Hope you enjoy!

For week’s bonus, Francis and Joe discuss the history of the frontier fur-trapper wars in North America, also known as the Beaver Wars. Yes, there are dumb jokes--but also a lot of history of French colonization of America, and much more. Get it on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/58032812
