Show notes
Russian Viktor Bout is a notorious arms dealer who has been imprisoned in the U.S. for eleven years, and he's being talked about as part of a trade for WNBA star Brittney Griner. We're joined by Douglas Farah, author of Merchant of Death: Money, Guns, Planes, and the Man Who Makes War Possible, which is the book on Bout. We're also thinking of British heat by degrees. And call Joe Manchin self-interested, dishonest or corrupt for scotching the big tax and climate bill, but you know who played it even worse? Elon.
Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
