Introduction

The Eastern Border

06/27/15 • 7 min

In this episode, I explain what all of this is going to be about, while I work on my first, real episode about M. Gorbatchev’s book on perestroika and work with all of my written material about the life in the USSR. This is the second iteration of the intro – so we spend some time explaining for our new listeners how the podcast has improved and evolved over time.

News about the war in Ukraine. This time, apparently not good news for the Russian forces, which means great info for the rest of us! No, I'm not even hiding my allegiances here.

War in Ukraine: Episode 201

The Eastern Border

01/16/24 • 25 min

Bild has posted a document, stating that NATO war with Russia is imminent. Western "experts" sow more panic, even got me scared for a moment. In this episode, I want to calm You all down a bit, as there are no "second Russia" which has all the equipment, manpower, organisation, logistics and tactical genius to even think about a war with NATO. There's only the one, that's not being very successful in Ukraine. All this panic does is distract from giving help where it's necessary - on the front lines right now!

War in Ukraine: Episode 233

The Eastern Border

08/25/24 • 26 min

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 216

The Eastern Border

05/14/24 • 25 min

Belousov has replaced Shoigu as Russia's minister of defense - and for some reason, western media reports this as a threatening thing for Ukraine. In this episode I explain why they're mistaken, and how this proves that Putin's admitting that he no longer has endless money for the war effort.
