Author Alex Aaronson | Sentinel Strength #28

In this episode, I sit down with Navy veteran and author Alex Aaronson, the mind behind The Soviet Endgame series and co-author of The Monroe Doctrine. We explore his journey from the military to becoming a published writer, the pressures of character development, and how he taught himself the craft of storytelling.
Our conversation then shifts to global affairs, starting with NATO’s evolving role and whether it still serves a strategic purpose in the 21st century. We tackle NAFTA and the sweeping wave of globalization that followed in the U.S., then dive into the politics of labeling Mexican cartels as terrorist organizations. We also analyze the war in Ukraine, discussing whether it could mirror the fate of Czechoslovakia and splinter into multiple states.
This is a sharp, unfiltered conversation about writing, war, and the state of the world through the lens of a veteran turned author.
