Welcome aboard Kyber Squadron! Andrés is still running around the galaxy, but he couldn't pass up the (then) breaking news of Bondi joining Noem in the "Former MAGA Girlboss" club!

Welcome aboard Kyber Squadron! This week, Andrés chats with Dan to discuss the ongoing aggression by the United States against Iran. This episode was recorded during the first week of hostilities, and yet this is still dominating our newsfeeds for the worst possible reasons.

Welcome aboard Kyber Squadron! This week, Andres takes a step back from the news of the week to discuss the many ways in which Trump is losing despite what the imperial machine would have you believe.

Welcome aboard Kyber Squadron! Andrés kicks off the new season with a discussion on the military operation that upended the year from the very start of it. Maduro got kicked out of power, but it was in the worst way you could imagine, entrenching his allies and giving Trump a victory lap he doesn't deserve.
