Joining Mike Kao and me for the fourth episode of Kaos Theory is Elbridge Colby, author of 'The Strategy of Denial: American Defense in an Age of Great Power Conflict,' and the Founder of The Marathon Initiative, a non-profit research organization dedicated to developing the diplomatic, military, and economic strategies the United States will need to navigate a protracted competition with great power rivals.
