  &quot;I heard that World War 1 started because a bloke called Archie Duke shot an ostrich because he was hungry.&quot;<br>&quot;I think you mean that it started when the Archduke of Austria-Hungary got shot&quot;. <br>&quot;Na, there was definitely an ostrich involved, sir.&quot;<br>- Blackadder

  Eisenhower had a very unique perspective being both Field Commander Chief of the Armed Forces and US President. His warning went over everyone&apos;s head and then ignored to this day

  Lex, when you get a chance, watch congressman Ron Paul&apos;s farewell address when he announced he wouldn&apos;t be seeking another term after decades of trying to promote peace. He speaks on the very issues you were concerned weren&apos;t being brought up. Also, he would make a fine guest on your podcast.

  WW1 is often overlooked but to me it has some of the most valuable lessons to be learned out of all the modern conflicts.

  Please never change Lex. I’m serious. It’s going to be hard not to, but we need you to stay this way.

  Thank you, Lex. Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation. Christopher was an excellent guest. His humility despite his knowledge and expertise made what he said resonate even more.
