Description
On this week's episode, Peter sits down with writer Julie Ioffe to talk about Putin’s brutal long game in Ukraine – and whether the west will slowly stop paying attention. They discuss the tragic images of a maternity hospital in Ukraine getting hit by a Russian attack, Putin's possible war crimes, and they try to understand the mindset of The Russian President as he wages this war.
Peter also sits down with writer William Cohan to talk about his new Puck News piece about Wall Street investors trying to make money by betting against Russia's suffering economy. They ask if it's moral and what bets are being made right now.
