  • Bad English

    “Sad” needs to improve his English before criticising someone else! “ could (of) been great?” The use of this preposition is quite incorrect. It should be the ver to have!

  • Bro show & cannot pronounce Moscow

    After 20+ interviews, why keep asking the dumb question about work life balance in emerging market. It’s hard work & the hungry duck has closed. Either you work not party. It’s a job after all.

  • Keep up the good work ✌️

    After finding this podcast a few weeks ago I’m hooked and have gone back through almost every episode. It’s a fun look at some of the major issues affecting Russia and Russian studies. I’m a big fan of the diversity of the guests and subjects and the tone is a welcome antidote to the Very Serious think tank and NGO types you usually get appearing on stuff like this.
