Episode Details

Adam continues the deep dive into the YDELP Network archives to revisit all of the times we've mentioned the prospect of war with Venezuela. The chronology takes a hit today with this episode of the What In The World podcast from March 2017 that actually predates the Unpopular Opinion episode we posted yesterday. On this episode, Adam and then co-host Quincy Johnson talk to a friend of Adam's with in depth knowledge of the food shortage crisis that engulfed the country of Venezuela in the early 2010s.
