HOLLIE MCKAY | The Rise of Taliban Rule in Afghanistan (Ep. 437)
In this episode, we welcome Hollie McKay back to the show. She is a journalist, war correspondent, and humanitarian. She is also the bestselling author of Only Cry for The Living: Memos from Inside the ISIS Battlefield (our 2021 Book of the Year), and her new book out now called Afghanistan: The End of the US Footprint and the Rise of the Taliban Rule.
