Myths and Facts of The Israel Gaza War: Urban Warfare Expert, John Spencer, Demystifies The Israel Gaza War
Urban warfare expert, John Spencer (@SpencerGuard on X), demystifies the Israel Gaza War. He's been on the ground both in Israel and in Gaza since the war began (and many times before), and has seen first-hand what both sides are doing and how they're trying to accomplish their goals.
In this conversation, John breaks down the myths and facts of the Israel Gaza war so you know the truth about what's going on.
John discusses:
- Israel's use of 2,000 pound bombs
- Hamas's use of human shields
- The total loss of life on both sides and Israel's response (is it proportionate?)
- The extent of Hamas's tunnel system (you won't believe this)
- Israel's state-of-the-art facial recognition system to identify enemy combatants
- And much, much more.
I hope you enjoy this episode,
And if you do, please leave a 5-star review because I know many will get angry at me for posting this and give me 1-star reviews lol.

Strength Training as You Age
In this episode of The Jordan Syatt Mini-Podcast, I have an in-depth conversation with my podcast producer, Tony, all about training as you age. I talk about how aging affects everything from fat loss, to strength, to muscle growth... but the core principles of training stay the same throughout your entire life. I go over why younger folks have an advantage at building strength and muscle, how women tend to approach training with more enthusiasm later in life, and how TRT is the same thing as steroids (sorry, not sorry) regardless of what people claim. I also talk about why aesthetics for trained individuals are greatly affected by genetics, how steroids are linked to high blood pressure and other severe health risks, how protein pulsing may have some benefits for training as you age, and how it's never too late to start taking your health and fitness seriously and make huge improvements.
