  • 38 CFR discussion - Key points and things to know
    Oct 17 2024

    38 CFR discussion with some guest hosts. Really trying something experimental for this episode but I think it will bring some value to all of you.


    This is a discussion based on the entire 38 CFR, crafted with some help from AI. If you find anything that sounds crazy let us know, but I reviewed it and everything sounds spot on.


    Enjoy
