More on: Military Culture

The podcast episodes showcase various aspects of military culture, including the mindsets and experiences of personnel staffing Guantanamo Bay prison, the military's handling of sexual assault cases, the culture of hyper-masculinity and opposition to LGBTQ inclusion, the divide between elite and conventional forces, and the challenges faced by conscientious objectors.

For example, episode S04 - Ep. 1: Poor Baby Raul explores the bizarre and contradictory environment of Guantanamo Bay and the experiences of military personnel there, while episode #248: Korean Female Air Force Sergeant Takes Her Own Life On Her Wedding Day - Case of Lee Yeram delves into the male-dominated culture within the South Korean military that enabled the cover-up of a sexual assault case.

The episodes also touch on broader themes related to military culture, such as the legal ambiguity surrounding military operations, the psychological impacts on servicemembers, and the challenges faced by those seeking to resist or leave the military.
