We have a special request here, as in Chechnya a friend of the show's brother is being persecuted. Russia's education system is, apparently, "being assaulted by the west" and GosDuma is trying to prevent kids from learning about the casualities as it seems to be bad for the morale. Also,  Putin gave a  dumb, nonsense speech.

While I was in Texas, enjoying the honeymoon I knew I had to record stuff, because the show won't wait for me, but I did not want to do heartbreaking stuff. Thankfully, Alex had listened to my pre-wedding episode, and wanted to dig deeper about our hero, Stanislav Petrov. We used the rare occasion of a much smaller time zone difference than usual and made this for You - which Alex also posted on his feed too. Enjoy!
