He tells us what it’s been like to have his community overtaken by armed goons and the acts of bravery that have surprised and inspired him, and the dark future ahead for all of us if we don’t join together in collective action. We’re also debuting extended episodes, exclusively for paid subscribers, starting this week. Every episode will now include an additional 15–30 minutes where we discuss an additional topic, share gossip, and/or trade rumors. It’s fun!
