Description

Midweek Sitrep with Jerry Fowler is your biweekly briefing on what’s happening in the world of national security—decoded for everyday listeners. From classified documents and sanctions to cyberattacks, foreign interference, and spycraft, Jerry breaks down the headlines, the history, and the hidden forces shaping global power today. Whether it’s a presidential executive order, a new war in a far-off region, or a tech ban making waves in Washington, Jerry gives you the background and context to actually understand what’s going on—and why it matters. Midweek Sitrep doesn’t just deliver the news—it makes sense of it. Designed for curious minds, students, and new voices entering the national security world, each episode strips away the jargon and brings clarity to the complexity. If you’ve ever heard a story about sanctions, surveillance, or secret operations and thought, “Wait—what does that actually mean?”—this is your podcast. New episodes drop on Wednesdays.
