  What a banger of an episode! I&apos;ve been researching histories and conflicts of these regions since the conflict started in Ukraine and this was so interesting and I feel like I learned a bunch and have another rabbit hole to jump down thank you sir✌ great show. To shed light on these issues through a man that lived it I think is important for people to grasp the severity of these past events and how they shape our modern lives. I appreciate what ya do🤘
