The Common Sense Defense Podcast allows defense policy to be accessible, relatable, and easily understandable for the common everyday person. Defense Priority - Our first priority is helping our Navy remain viable and increasingly lethal while it freezes the decommissioning of key platforms and builds additional naval combatants above current projections to deter the PRC’s global ambitions. Process - The Common Sense Defense Podcast compliments the book, China Rising: The Case for Containment which gives information about increasing the deterrence value of our Navy and the Common Sense Defense Podcast presents actions that can be taken by everyday Americans to increase the size of our Naval Battle Force as well as to enhance the efficiency of our National Defense.
