The United States have put sanctions banning Russian oil and Gas, and have instead turned to long time rivals Venezuela and Iran to investigate options for substituting the now illegal Russian energy source. This has had impacts on things such as foreign relationships and international partnerships, most surprisingly with Iran's sudden willingness to work towards an agreement in their nuclear arms deal.

As well this week a leading South Korean politician has been using Deep fake videos of an AI version of himself to attend town halls and answer citizens questions during his campaign. Will the technology prove useful and is there a possibility that we will see that strategy evolved for the west in the future?

As the Russian military continues to wage war, shelling and launching guided missile attacks on innocent citizens of Ukraine, I am dedicating all of my podcasts and social media to inform everyone of what is happening on the ground and what news sources they can rely on for fast and accurate information.

I also decided to dive into the sanctions, and the impact that a bad economy will have on this war. with the Russian population going broke by the minute, the major impacts here will be felt for decades in Russia.

as mentioned in the episode this week I recommend sky news (UK), DW News (Germany, and France 24 (France) for your news, all available 24/7 on YouTube. I consume the English versions of their channels and recommend anyone interested do the same.

At times like this we can feel helpless, and I hope that the time you spend with me each week gives you a little bit of a sense of the situation, and some form of enjoyment that we are all helpless in this together. 

Down with Vladimir Putin. Glory Ukraine.

Global tensions are high as Vladimir Putin received approval to use the Russian military on foreign land. Yesterday they crossed the Eastern Ukrainian border, and today NATO troops and allied nations are waiting in tense stalemate.

Will this be the largest conflict since the second world war, or will this fade away like previous altercations between Russian and Eastern Europe?

15 year old figure skater Kamila Valieva has tested positive for a banned substance, but earlier today she competed in her first event. How has the Olympic committee allowed this and why am I not surprised that another Russian Olympic athlete has tested positive?

A long discussion about podcast platforms, their responsibilities, and free speech in the podcasting world.Should government organizations such as the FCC or CRTC be involved in regulations? What is the reason for network television's attack on podcasters and is their a built in fear of the new evolving popularity of online hosts?Thank you all for your continued support. you can find the new merchandise at www.laughtolearnpodcast.com/store Let us know what you think over on social media and subscribe to find for more episodes each and every Wednesday at 1pm EST.

This sounds like a bad sit-com episode, but no it's real. With the truck drivers' protest still continuing (raging on seems like an over exaggeration), the prime minister still hiding, sorry "distancing", at his cottage, and a whole lot of Canadians left confused, it's time to break this thing down!

Why is this protest continuing, how does this translate across the country, and why is Prime Minister Trudeau afraid of a few thousand truck drivers? Also what could Doug Ford and Erin (The Tool) O'tool learn from this, and where did they royally screw up?

Russia has over 100,000 military troops and personnel along the border with Ukraine currently performing military exercises. NATO has been supplying plane loads of weaponry for the Ukrainian forces to prepare to defend against an invasion, and asking Russia to stand down from the Border. The crazy part of all of this is that the Ukrainian territories have not signed into an allied agreement with either side! How will this impact international behaviors and what can we expect in the coming weeks?

U.S. President Joe Biden and Russian "leader" Vladimir Putin have been jarring back and forth. Where is this headed?

This week it was brought to my attention that I missed a major news story from Last September where Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made some crazy allegations about non-vaccinated Canadians in a French interview. He referred to them as racists and misogynists! This brought up the concern that such a major story was missed by the English media and raises questions on how to ensure that major information is properly distributed during an election to all Canadians.

As well this week Microsoft made one of the largest purchases ever Spending $68.5 BILIION on gaming company Activision Blizzard. This excites me because of the value society is placing on entertainment and the new opportunities coming to small creators and investors in the future. There has never been a better time to have a good time than now!
