Customer Reviews
Thanks for keeping us informed.
About time democratic countries gave the Ukrainians what they need to beat the autocrat alliance. Slava Ukraini
Do your bit - and stay informed at the same time
You can feel a little helpless to do anything to help Ukraine. Listening to this podcast, writing a review and sharing with your friends, family and colleagues is the least you can do, will make a difference and will educate you to boot.
Interesting, engaging and balanced, this podcast will come to be seen as a classic and a moment in war reporting.
Sterling work
I am a few episodes behind atm but I will catch up over the weekend. This is by far the best podcast about Ukraine. TV news channels are not reporting on this enough anymore especially considering the importance of the situation in Ukraine with respect to world order.
I struggle to accept that there is so much reluctance to provide Ukraine with the necessary support and that Putin has been allowed to take it this far. Some European countries seem to realise the importance of the situation but don’t get me started on the sheer idiocy of the American Republican Party.
Anyway the podcast covers all of this and more. An essential, fascinating listen. Keep up the good work!
