In this episode, Brock talks with Allison Jaslow.
Allison is former Army captain with a love for all things politics. She gets into the similarities between service and working in politics, on a campaign or otherwise. We discuss the need for more veteran representation in office due to lacking "skin in the game" as well as how service members can pursue helping out on a campaign or running themselves. Allison also talks about an article she wrote a few years back pointing out the lack of care for female veterans, particularly from the VA. We take that a step further and talk about women in the military generally and how we need to rewrite what modern day warriors look like.
