Mikhail Viktorovich Zygar (Russian: Михаил Викторович Зыгарь; born 31 January 1981) is a Russian born journalist, writer and filmmaker, and the founding editor-in-chief of Russian news TV-channel Dozhd (2010–2015), which halted operations on 3 March 2022. Under Zygar's leadership, Dozhd provided an alternative to Kremlin-controlled federal TV channels by focusing on news content and giving a platform to opposition voices. The channel's coverage of politically sensitive issues, like the Moscow street protests in 2011 and 2012 as well as the conflict in Ukraine, has been dramatically different from the official coverage by Russia's national television stations.[1] Zygar is also the author of the book All the Kremlin's Men (2017), the history of Putin's Russia, based on interviews with Russian politicians from Putin's inner circle.

In 1984, Yuri Bezmenov, a former KGB secret agent gave an interview to G. Edward Griffin, titled 'Soviet Subversion of the Free World Press'. In the interview, Bezmenov explained the methods used by the KGB for the gradual subversion of the political system of the United States. He emphasized the main emphasis of the KGB is not in the area of intelligence at all. Only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage and such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion or active measures… or psychological warfare. Today we brought on David from the Cove Fella and discuss the implementations of the ideological subversion we have seen in the US, and what are some of the current areas of target.

It had finally happened. The revolution in Russia, the downfall of Putin, the possible end of the Ukraine War. Wagner's March on Moscow was supposed to be one of the most historic moments of the 21st century. And then just like that. Within 24 hours, it was over. But how did possibly one of the most historic and revolutionary events of the 21st century turn into a metaphorical done? In this mini-episode, we evaluate who the Wagner Group and Yevgeny Prigozhin are, what led to this coup, and how this will have a long term effect on Putins power.
