Show notes

The gang discusses the closure of Spirit Airlines, which shuttered over the weekend following several bankruptcies, a failed merger with JetBlue, spiking oil prices, and a general frustration from flyers for decades. Which one of these factors played the largest role in the death of Spirit? They discuss. Meanwhile, the Pentagon is continuing to shrink its footprint in Europe, with another 5,000 troops set to leave Germany behind. Is it time for Europe's defense to be more Europe-centric, or is this the US once again abandoning allies under Trump? **Chapters** 00:00:00 - Intro 00:17:26 - Spirit Airlines 00:47:43 - US-Germany Pullout 01:05:21 - Emails 01:34:54 - Wrap-up --- Hosted on Acast.
