“I’ve been listening to “Well there’s your problem” and “lions led by donkeys” for some time, and those led me to this show. Love the show, very informative and somewhat funny. Definitely recommend to anyone interested in military stuff.
HOWEVER, I’m mainly writing this review to say something to Nate, who guested on the recent “Marines vs Teens” episode.

Nate, you were discussing possibly moving to the Midwest, and the pros and cons of Minneapolis vs Chicago. I live in Minneapolis and I just wanted to stick up for my cit’s weather a lil bit :) in the last couple years, winter has consisted of basically just 4-5 major snow events, and we also have perhaps the best snow-plowing infrastructure in the world, so in the event of a major storm, streets are bad for at most a day! Also, you mentioned -30° temps, and I must tell you, that is truly a thing of the past. I believe the lowest temperature we got this past winter was around -10°, and the average temp in January (coldest month obviously) was 9° above zero. Also, we don’t have the killer wind chill or icy humidity m that Chicago gets.
So yeah just wanted to say that to hopefully encourage you to move to our lovely city! We may not have quite the cultural appeal of Chicago, but the walkability, bike-ability, traffic, and prices are all much better than chi-town! Come join us!! :)
Love the show, thanks Francis!”
