In this week’s episode, Lizzie and Arden discuss the infamous Gulf of Tonkin Resolution! Join them as they uncover what events (or non events) led to the resolution, what the impacts of the US joining the Vietnam war were, and how we really shouldn’t rely on a couple of 20 something year olds to determine if we are under attack!
