LIV - PGA (Not-A-Merger)-Merger
Hi Krystal and Saagar, huge fan of the show (I recently started dressing better because of Saagar, thank you!). I am disgusted that the PGA took Saudi money after virtue signaling to the players that they could "save the tour" by not taking the money to switch over to LIV. It seems that this merger is extremely unpopular with both the players and Americans. Do you think it is possible for there to be a grass roots boycott of the PGA/LIV similar to the conservative boycotts we have seen of Target/Bud Light? If not possible do you think there should be a boycott of PGA/LIV golf? Thanks, Matt
A question about twitch.tv
I know this is a bit out of your purview, but I wanted to get your opinion about what is happening on twitch and its recent crackdown on sponsored streams. It essentially bans creators from making deals outside twitch's control. With the recent talks about censorship, I wondered what your thoughts might be on this matter. https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoniopequenoiv/2023/06/06/twitch-hit-with-backlash-and-boycott-threats-as-streamers-say-new-rules-threaten-their-income/?sh=2981e4ee773a (I know this might not be the best link but Its just to give you some brief background)
Nuclear Arms Control
"Waging Peace" is an important documentary being made on nuclear arms control, drawing on the footage and experiences acquired during a book tour of Russia promoting the book "Disarmament in a Time of Perestroika". Its aim is to pave the way for renewal of the arms control consensus via the grassroots: by bringing to light the humanity and commonality of ordinary Russian and American people, it seeks to reestablish trust at the ground level, uniting the people and informing them on the necessity of arms control. It thereby hopes to create the popular demand and pressure required to enable action on this critically important issue among policy makers at the top, to overcome the precarious complacency and reckless abandonment of vital arms control treaties. It would be awesome if you guys could help give it some exposure by perhaps interviewing Scott Ritter and others involved; see the 3-min video "Scott Ritter on how he was treated in Russia" by "U.S. Tour of Duty" for a brief summary.
