Red Reviews - The Best and the Brightest
In this episode, we dive deep into David Halberstam's classic book The Best and the Brightest, exploring how some of America's most esteemed minds led the country into one of its most significant foreign policy disasters—the Vietnam War. We unpack the failures of leadership, the hubris of the so-called "best and brightest," and the devastating implications of their decisions. Through this discussion, we aim to understand how these missteps shaped the war's outcome and continue to influence U.S. foreign policy today. Whether you're a history buff or simply interested in the lessons learned from Vietnam, this episode offers a compelling analysis of one of the 20th century's most critical events.
