Dune it Joint Geeks Style!
The Joint Geeks of Staff - A podcast by The Joint Geeks of Staff
Guest host Andy Poulastides returns, and Annie Muirhead joins us for the first time! We tackle the recent Dune movie with our unique Joint Geeks flair, examining the lessons the movie gives about human terrain, leadership, collective memory, and more. Also in this episode, Eric shows off his singing chops, Andy rhapsodizes about the Great Beard of the Galaxy, Annie gives us an Expansive black hole of the week, and Ian tells us why the Atreides really do count… We hinted at this concept in the episode, but if you’ve ever wanted a rigorous examination of why a stand-up fight between great powers is so different from an asymmetric conflict ala Dune, check out this fantastic book by Stephen Biddle on what he calls the modern system of warfare and how it works.
