Ep 318 - The Terrorist Therapist Part 2
Chuck sits back down with the psychologist known as “The Terrorist Therapist” for Part 2 of one of the most unusual conversations we’ve ever had on the War Locker Show. In this follow-up episode, the discussion dives deeper into the psychology behind violent extremism, the mindset of people drawn into terrorist networks, and the uncomfortable truth about how radicalization actually works. Instead of looking at terrorists as distant monsters, our guest studies them as human beings shaped by ideology, identity, and pressure.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-war-locker-show--6767179/support.Join us for War Locker LIVE — formerly Locker Room Live!

Ep 316 - War is my Business
Sergeant Matthew Brunnemann spent a year fighting in Helmand Province. After that first deployment, he had a deep and unsettling desire to get back in the battle. He hadn’t installed enough tracking devices, 400 helicopter-borne raids were not enough, he hadn’t captured enough Taliban… there was still a fight to be had. So he returned to the Graveyard of Empires, spending a total of five hundred days in Afghanistan between 2010 and 2012. He sits down with Matt and Chuck and talks about his service as well as his book War Business: The Hired Guns Of Helman ProvinceBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-war-locker-show--6767179/support.Join us for War Locker LIVE — formerly Locker Room Live!
