    #9 Natalia Antelava on Why People Stop Listening and How Journalism Can Reach Them

    In this new episode of How Come, produced in partnership with the Lviv Media Forum during LMF 2026, Ukraïner International’s Christopher Atwood speaks with journalist, editor, and Coda Story co-founder and editor-in-chief Natalia Antelava about independent journalism, empathy, and storytelling in a world overwhelmed by war and constant information overload. Originally from Tbilisi, Antelava previously worked as a BBC correspondent covering the Caucasus, Central Asia, the Middle East, India, and Washington DC, and has reported on wars in Georgia, Iraq, and Ukraine. She is a co-founder of ZEG, a global storytelling network that brings together journalists, artists, and thinkers to break down barriers and make sense of a fragmented world. They discuss the challenges of making people care in the age of doomscrolling and shrinking attention spans, the responsibility journalists have to connect global events to everyday life, and the role imagination plays in resisting authoritarianism. How Come is a series of long-form conversations with journalists, writers, researchers, artists, and thinkers about the ideas, conflicts, and social changes shaping the world today.

    #8 Chris Liu on Why Taiwan and Ukraine Share the Same Information War

    In our new episode of How Come, produced in partnership with the Lviv Media Forum during LMF 2026, Ukraïner International’s Christopher Atwood speaks with Chris Liu, Vice President of Radio Taiwan International (RTI), journalist, and media expert working at the intersection of democracy, human rights, and countering disinformation. Taiwan is one of the world’s primary targets of both Chinese and Russian disinformation campaigns — a reality that creates striking parallels with Ukraine’s experience. The conversation explores how authoritarian regimes manipulate narratives, why journalism matters in defending democracy, and how media literacy today is deeply connected to emotional awareness. They also discuss colonial narratives, identity, freedom of expression, AI-generated information ecosystems, and the similarities between Taiwan’s and Ukraine’s experiences living under constant external pressure. How Come is a series of long-form conversations with journalists, researchers, activists, and thinkers from around the world about propaganda, war, democracy, culture, and the forces shaping public perception today.

    #6 Historian Marci Shore on Ukraine, the US, and what is missing for change in Russia

    In this episode of How Come, Julia Tymoshenko speaks with Marci Shore, a historian of Eastern Europe and Chair in European Intellectual History at the University of Toronto. They discuss how revolutions emerge not only as political events but as deeply personal transformations, and why meaningful change cannot be imposed from the outside. Drawing on her work on Ukraine’s Revolution of Dignity, Shore reflects on the role of fear, self-organisation, and collective agency in moments of upheaval. The conversation also explores how modern politics uses distraction and information overload to shape public attention, why democratic institutions depend on individual responsibility, and how societies come to normalize what once seemed unthinkable. Shore offers a perspective on Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine as a case of rare moral clarity, and examines the broader question of why some societies resist authoritarianism while others do not. How Come is a series of in-depth interviews with people around the world about the global events shaping our present — from war and political systems to memory, responsibility, and the forces that define human action.

    #2 Leila Bičakčić on what’s happening in the Balkans 30 years after the war

    The 1990s in the Balkans were marked by years of brutal wars. Bosnia and Herzegovina was left to pick up the pieces after genocide. While some countries have managed to move beyond their Yugoslav past and join the European Union, Bosnia and Herzegovina, along with other countries in the region, has remained stuck in a cycle where generations change, but historical, ethnic and religious grievances persist, with no reconciliation in sight. We sat down with Leila Bičakčić, a leading expert on the Balkans and the co-founder and CEO of the Centre for Investigative Reporting (CIN), the first investigative journalism centre in the region. We discussed whether the Dayton Peace Agreement that ended the Bosnian war has truly worked, its long-term consequences, the threats Russia poses to the region and beyond, and why corruption should be seen not as a root cause, but as a result of long-standing issues. How Come is a series that explores the forces shaping our world, asking how we got to where we are today — and what can be done next. Like what we do? Support us on ⁠Buy Me a Coffee⁠.
