Boots on the Ground: Part Three of My Conversation with Major General "Max" Haston
Part two of a conversation with Major General Terry “Max” Haston.
SEASON 1 | EPISODE 94
If you haven't heard the first two conversations I recorded with Major General Terry “Max” Haston, go listen to those now!
In this third part of my conversation with Major General Terry “Max” Haston, we are not pulling punches. I’m done with surface-level takes and polite conversations. This episode gets into the real, uncomfortable truths about the U.S. military, global power, and what’s actually happening behind the headlines.
Max shares stories that sound unreal, like hitting golf balls near Saddam’s courthouse, and then turns around and breaks down the current state of our military in a way that’s impossible to ignore. We get into the hard questions: Are we helping Ukraine or draining ourselves dry? Are China and Russia thinking ten steps ahead while we’re reacting to yesterday’s problems? And what happens when we place too much faith in technology and forget the basics of actual readiness?
We talk Iraq, we talk global conflict strategy, we talk the threats most people don’t even know to fear, including what happens if we ever face a true EMP scenario. Max has been in the rooms where decisions get made. He’s seen it. He understands it. And he’s not sugarcoating a thing.
If you want a sanitized, diplomatic conversation, this is not that episode. But, if you’re ready to hear what’s really going on in the world of modern warfare, buckle up. This might just change the way you see everything.
