(UNLOCKED) Pat Tilman and Afghanistan: Part 2 (OffCourt S2, E6)
In an unlocked part 2 hosts Abdul Malik and Eytan Tobin discuss the history of war and international interventionism in Afghanistan as a parallel to Pat Tillman's football career as his path took him to enlistment and his eventual tragic death. Plus: exploring the history of his deployment in Iraq and Afghanistan and the cover-up of his 'friendly fire' murder in the long shadow of the military-industrial complex.
'Where Men Win Glory: The Odyssey of Pat Tillman', a 2009 book written by Jon Krakauer, serves as a guide for the discussion.
