Welcome! We were delighted to have Balakun student Yana join us for this episode. Yana told us about herself and her motives for joining Balakun before we launched into an episode about Ukrainian YouTube and how it has evolved in the last few years. Ranging from the serious to the ridiculous, here is a commentary on the diverse world of Ukrainian YouTube and all the craziness you didn’t know you were missing.
