<h3>Description</h3> Idaho Congress Debate in 2023 was a deeply fascinating scene. We get together with fellow congress debater James Findlay to discuss our favorite bills, why they provided such good debate, and what changes we want to see on the congress scene next year. How do we stop congressmen from trading on insider information? Should a defendant get to decide whether they get a death penalty or life without parole? What is the Jones Act and how does it make stuff more expensive? What is the Scottish Independence movement and should the US support it? Why is unconstitutional legislation such a common mistake in debate? Three congress nerds pick apart these questions and more on Counterplan. <h3>Chapters</h3> (00:00) Intro (00:30) What is Congress Debate?

<h3>Description</h3> Walker and Elijah discuss the Mobile Operations Police (MOP) of Ender's Game, an international and independent force of elite fighters who fight terrorists and aliens in the books. We investigate how the MOP functioned, what makes it unique from modern day special forces, and what a real world MOP might look like. <h3>Contact</h3> Reach out through email or boostagram, and we will read and discuss it on the show.
