We're back.

Obligatory 'it was all my fault'.

We have good reason to talk though.  Besides being friends and all.  Looks like Munich 38 out there.  Other parts look a lot like February 1933 in a certain central/northern European country.

Is what's happening in the US similar to what happened in Russia in the 90s?

What is President Musk's end game?  What is co president trump's thinking?  

How are Putin and Trump similar?  How are they different?

We urge you to support the Ukrainian people.

How? well, there's the Red Cross, UNCR and UNICEF.

HEY!

Yeah we're back. 

The time between updates is all on me.

So there are German tanks in Kursk, and this time it's cool.

Is there any more stark reminder of the difference between UKR and RUS fighters (I kind of don't want to call RUS military 'soldiers' as I think there is some honour in soldiering, and I don't think they have much) than how they treat occupied people?

One of the big differences between a Western (NATO standard) military and say RUS or any other third rate bunch or hooligans, is that in the West we allow NCOs and Jr. officers to actually make decisions.  In a place like Russia you can't let that happen, as at some point a captain or a major will think he has some sort of power.  Of course if he's any good he just wants to keep his boys alive, but you can't have initiative!

Prepare for a referendum!

We urge you to help, How? well, there's the Red Cross, UNCR and UNICEF.

OK, look, it's been a while.

That is completely my fault, not Daniil's.  Oh and COVID, it's also COVID's fault.  (We were going to record in December and then I got COVID).

So, Dan has had a full academic year teaching in Canada.

Putin got 'reelected'.

Navalny was killed.

In good news, the aid is now moving again into Ukraine!

Heck, they used ATACMS missiles the night Biden signed the billl.

As an aside, does anyone make up backronyms better than the US military?

We talked some about the post war world that will come some day, hopefully soon.

We urge you to help, How? well, there's the Red Cross, UNCR and UNICEF.

Yes i know it has been a long time.

Really, you could say that it's been a long time, getting from there to here.

Dan and I talked about his impressions of Canada and how things have gone in the past year.

He''s dealt with the healthcare system, the school system, he's taught at a Canadian university and a college.

We also of course talked about what's up in Ukraine.

If you want to help out, help out.

How? well, there's the Red Cross, UNCR and UNICEF.

Dan in a scary hatSeriously, one day I''ll get us a website.

Dan and I are back talking about the war.

Speicifcally, what do we expect to happen when this thing ends?

How will it end?

Have you given money to the people of Ukraine yet?  Daniil has, I have, you should too.

Oh, how do you do that?  Well, there's the Red Cross, UNCR and UNICEF.

It's the six month anniversary of Putin's illegal attack on Ukraine.

So, we thought we'd talk about that a bit.

Would visa denials to Russians work?  (We have different ideas here).

How would Putin be overthrown?

Have you given money to the people of Ukraine yet?  Daniil has, I have, you should too.

Oh, how do you do that?  Well, there's the Red Cross, UNCR and UNICEF.

Hey everyone.  After a one week hiatus, My Nuremberg is back.

In this episode Daniil and I discuss what will happen after the war ends, which it must at some point.

Im probably a bit more optimistic than Dan is, Dan would tell me that is because he's Russian.

His scenario is probably right though.  Russia will end up being somewhere between North Korea and Iran.

The weird thing is, people there might just accept it.  For a time anyway.

I learned the word for school in Russian.

Please give to the UNHCR and/or the Red Cross.

We're back with greetings from Sault Ste. Marie, Yerevan, and points beyond.

We talked about national myths.

We talked abotu propoganda.

We talked about looking forward vs. looking back.

I learned the word for bird in Russian.

Please give to the UNHCR and/or the Red Cross.

We're back!

Don't ddrink vodka mixed with anything.

Don't drinkBloody Caesers.

We talked about Russia's COVID response.

We talked abotu propoganda and its impact on Russian views of the world.

I learned the word clock, which has crazy sounds in it that don't bellong in words.

Please give to the UNHCR and/or the Red Cross.

Yeah yeah, we'll get a webiste, I swear.

More freewheeling today, looking at Daniil's decision to leave Putin's Russia.

Why Canada?

Oh I learned to say 'bicycle' in Russian.  Apparently my accent needs a lot of work.

There are no rules in Russia, this is done on purpose.
