Today's episode of Chaos on the strip is a bit unusual: I interviewed Olga about her experiences with the war in Ukraine two years ago but due to complicated circumstances that led to major changes in my life immediately after we recorded, I completely forgot about the interview until she and I discussed the topic of Sofia Velikaya a few days ago. Recently Sofia Velikaya, a successful Russian fencer and captain in the Russian army, decided to run for a position on the FIE's Athlete Commission representing Russia despite not being eligible for multiple reasons. Olga and I decided this was a good time to remind everyone why the Russians are currently not allowed to represent their country.
