The Eastern Border

Anniversary 3.0

Greetings, Comrades! And happy birthday. To us!

Can’t really believe that we’ve been here for all this time. Hey IN the episode, I mention that we’ve hit two years, but it’s been three by now. THREE. It’s crazy. And as great as it is, to talk about the podcast and the plans and what’s been going on, we’ve grown now. And Putin just held his 4.5 hour livestream, so called “tele-bridge”. Obviously, we tied that in, or more precisely tied our birthday in. With some historical stuff, some philosophy and the usual “hey, these things happened, but I couldn’t put them in an episode” segment. Oh, and I do have a Stalin ep ready for you next week, and then more history stuff incoming. Unless really interesting things happen again.

Happiness is Mandatory! Enjoy.

    Ukrainians are causing a lot of problems for Russians in the Kursk region - but not as many as the Russian officers are causing for the Russian army.

    Russia counterattacks in Kursk region, but stalls near Pokrovsk. Z channels continue to whine about the ‘wrong’ people and are yet again struck by unpleasant surprises in the tech department. Also, decommunization.

  • This episode doesn't have a title.

    46:50|
    Russian TV netvork TNT, their HBO equivalent, has just presented a new, state sponsored, "comedy" series about Joe Biden, visiting Russia, because the sanctions are not working and all the Russians are too happy. I am reading the leaked pilot script. There are no jokes. And the propaganda part is...baffling. Imagine the usual ultra fascism, USA bad, Russia AMAZING, with every stereotype ever, bu...also...the love interest of the main Russian character, the main female character of the show is a schoolteacher who is forced to work as a prostitute, because of poverty. This is unintentionally bad, turned kafka-esque, and I am...at a loss here.

    Arrest of Pavel Durov has caused panic and shock among the Russian troops and the Z community - as all of their military comms rely on Telegram. That, and other problems in the orc horde - as they've started to embrace being orcs themselves.
  • War in Ukraine: Episode 232

    47:29|
    You’ll laugh, of course, but there has been another ISIS related terror incident in Russia. Also, the unbelievable has happened, and a small bit of truth has been said on Russian state TV. Oh, and Z channels react (badly) to Ukrainian recent successes.
