Part 1: Nicholas Irving on Black Men Being the Original "Cow Boys" & Why the Military is Soft Now

--------

Former Army Ranger sniper Nicholas Irving joins Shawn Prez for a hard-hitting discussion on why global superpowers may be struggling to win modern conflicts with old playbooks. Using Russia’s war in Ukraine, rising tensions with Iran, Vietnam, drones, nuclear deterrence, international waterways, and the Geneva Convention as reference points, Irving questions whether America and other military powers have lost their strategic edge—or were oversold on their dominance from the start.

The conversation explores how smaller nations and nontraditional forces can outthink larger militaries, why ground wars may no longer fit today’s battlefield, and how propaganda, rules of engagement, and outdated assumptions shape public understanding of war. Irving also weighs in on “David vs. Goliath” dynamics, the limits of military power, and why winning future conflicts may require rethinking strategy, technology, and global influence.
