Subtle Propaganda
by Andrew Joseph Stone
Subtle Propaganda is an irreverent and ill-advised discussion of current events, pop culture, news, politics, military culture, video games, and fight videos. Rob, Drew, Mike, and Joe share their opinions on polarizing topics and issues. We invite unfettered discourse and participation. We're always late, have the hottest takes, best beards, and one of us may be a part of the holy trinity. Whatever we talk about, it's sure to be from a position of false expertise or subtle propaganda.
