Terrorism Across Borders


The weekly Friday circus with Kathy Dervin and Kevin Riordan keeps it uncharacteristically professional through the first hour discussing the markets, technology advances, and what defines Kevin’s trading style. (Well almost professional. There was some talk of porn, too.) The show’s friend Wayne Madsen, investigative reporter and conspiracy theorist, joins for the second hour to discuss the effects of past foreign policy on the recent actions of ISIS and the controversy over whether the US should be letting Syrian refugees across the border.
