War in Ukraine: Episode 289
45:41|Russian official propaganda in the person of Margarita Simonyan threaten to blow up Berlin yet again. Vatniks don't even pretend that anything of the sort could actually happen, while, as usual, complaining about how in Russia, anything that can get stolen, will.War in Ukraine: Episode 288
54:15|Vatniks, more miserable than usual. Girkin's reached a new low, Russian government tirelessly working to put a stop to any Z-donations for the front and the economy...well, now even the openly pro-kremlin media is becoming concerned.War in Ukraine: Episode 287
43:01|As expected, the negotiations went nowhere. The same trajectory where the Russian economy is heading, with the active help of state duma. Meanwhile, vatniks curse the Chinese drone maker DJI for daring to update their product line.War in Ukraine: Episode 286
42:24|Russia's not taking the peace talks seriously - you can easily tell by whom they've sent there, which is not lost on the Z-vatniks as well. Girkin's posted a bunch of new analysis about what's going on in the front, and Russian economists predict further deteoriation of the economy. (Shocking, I know.)Vatnik mindspace is full with discussions about the peace talks. They know they can't win - yet at the same time, they hate the ceasefire, because it'll make them lose even more.
45:56|Vatnik mindspace is full with discussions about the peace talks. One of Girkin's closest buddies, Pavel Gubarev, who used to be the first governor of the so-called DPR has gone completely insane, but even other vatniks now outright admit that a military victory for Russia has become impossible...but they also hate the possibility of a ceasefire.It’s technically warm when your house is on fire with The Red Line.
01:21:40|In this episode, I am joined by Michael from The Red Line for an in-depth discussion about the Russian economy. (Or, well, what’s left of it, besides the military.) We talk about who can still make money there, for how long, and what the multiple ‘?????’ stand for, in the vatnik plans for glorious economical supremacy.War in Ukraine: Episode 284
44:21|A nice return of our fan favorite segment - Igor Girkin has gotten some free time in his prison cell - and he's been busy writing analysis more than usual. Also, news from the front lines and Putin's actively confusing vatniks.War in Ukraine: Episode 283
37:19|I'm back home now, and there's a lot of weird stuff to talk about. Putin's surprise unilateral ceasefire left many vatniks sad and confused - and now we have a whole slew of doomer mentality posts intermixed with praises for North Korea. Also, a bit of Girkin and economy news at the end.War in Ukraine: Episode 282
42:54|Russia is a failed state. And at this point, vatniks are starting to admit it too. Empires crumble slowly and then...all at once. We're in the "acceleration" period.
