Macer Gifford is the pseudonym of a British former currency trader who travelled to Syria to fight with the Kurdish YPG militia against the Islamic State group.

Note: A lot of people are finding my Substack directly (and not through YouTube). Hence I’m now uploading previous podcasts so they’re all eventually on Substack, too.

Macer Gifford is the pseudonym of a British former currency trader who travelled to Syria to fight with the Kurdish YPG militia against the Islamic State group. Macer went to fight ISIS not just once but three times (I accidentally say that he only went to fight twice in my into…apologies, Macer!). First in 2015 and again in 2016. In 2020, he released a book called Fighting Evil about his experience in Syria.
