A Mini-Episode: The Thai-Cambodian Border Crisis

Okay, here's the latest episode! Right after the fighting on the Thai-Cambodian border in late July, I decided to do an episode on the crisis, because to many of you it must have seemed like it came out of nowhere. I called it a mini-episode, on a par with what I recorded in 2023 when I shared my thoughts about ancient aliens, but after doing the research and recording what I had, the result is long enough to call a regular episode. Add to that the times when the real world got in the way (again), and now I'm done, just over a month later. Listen and enjoy, while I get started on the next episode. Cheers!Do you think you would like to become a podcaster on Blubrry? Click here for the details on joining. Enter my promo code, HSEASIA, to let them know I sent you, and you will get the first month's hosting for free!Support this podcast!And here is the Podcast Hall of Fame page, to honor those who have donated already!Visit the Patreon page to become a long-term supporter of the podcast!
