The Eastern Border

The "peace plan" continues dominating the news feed. In this episode I look at the Z-vatnik take on it, how Putin has reacted to that non-document personally and a quite plausible conspiracy about this whole affair that's gaining traction in the Russian opposition circles. Also, bwah, I have to counter the doomsayers that consider that "all is lost" for Ukraine again.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast.

Well, the one good thing to come out of this peace deal thing is that it's yet another boost to European Union military efforts and unity. In all seriousness, it won't go anywhere as Putin will never sign it. Sure, it doesn't look good for the Ukrainians - and that's the only thing I've seen western media and experts cover - but it legitimately looks even worse for Putin.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

I recently made an episode about the horrific fascist ideas of Alexander Kharichev, the "Civil War 2.0"one. However, according to Girkin's buddies - club of angry patriots and Russian people's militia, who are setting up cells all over Russia, Kharichev was not only nowhere near hard enough. Their ideals are MUCH worse and they gave me a pause. Luckily for us, in this conversation they slipped up and unknowingly admitted that the West is right about the war.This whole situation was such a mess - namely they say stuff that you just wouldn't believe me if I just posted it on audio. Therefore, we streamed it! The audio file is the first 40min of the stream, with the central point which shocked me - but, please, watch the whole thing. It also has Evita, reading Vatnik poetry at one point. Link to recorded stream on YouTube:https://youtube.com/live/bxLhkoh2YloSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

The news episode that I wanted to release before the glorious civil war article plopped up. We have a lot of Igor Girkin to catch up to – but the main story ties with the ep. 17 marvelously. Because at this point, mainstream Russian economists, the same who called Lipsits a doomsayer, now have gone past fear and openly admit that an economic collapse is not just inevitable. It’s already happening.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A high-ranking Kremlin official Alexander Kharichev, chief of monitoring the social media in Russia, just wrote an article about the possibility of civil war in Russia. I take a deep look both at that and his previous work, which is all about the “Russian Civilization”. Let’s see what they’re building and why all of this is going to come tumbling down.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast.

More detailed info about the ever-continuing meat assaults on the Russian side and also, the #1 event in the Z-vatnik space this week - yet another useful idiot, this time the traitor Tatyana Montyan, being declared an extremist and a terrorist.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

In this episode, I look at yet more Z-vatnik wankering about how shit the whole situation on the front is for them and compare it to what NATO and EU does about our collective defence and what we should be doing to prevent a larger war on the continent.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

Darryl Cooper from Martyrmade whom I owe a lot to, just released an episode where he claimed that Russia is winning this war. This is an open response to Darryl and to all of his fans, because it was very stupid of him to make such claims in the same day when the Z-vatnik blogosphere was busy whining about why and how Russia is about to lose. Therefore, please share and spread this - because as you'll hear, Darryl is either horribly misinformed or outright lying. He started the fight back in 2022, when he thought I was lying about Russia in my interview on his show and this is the point where I strike backSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

I had to channel my Gonzo style for this one again. You see, there was yet another article, that was just published in the west, stating that Russia's somehow adapted to this war and has modernized and innovated solutions to the problems they had in the early war. The only thing Russia's innovated are new and clever ways of graft and embezzlement - they would deserve a Nobel prize for this, but that's been preemptively stolen - they're just THAT good at crime. And only crime.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode, I want to bring you up to speed with the war-related events in the Z-sphere of idiocy. Vatniks are pissing their pants because of Ukraine probably getting Tomahawks in the near future, Putin has to deal with the new president of Syria, and, of course, Igor Girkin has written new things for us to laugh at. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

As I'm moving, I thought it would be nice to give you a bit of a historical breather episode, explaining the peculiarities of the proud Latvian region of Latgale. Which, in all seriousness, has more in common with Texas than you probably think.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast.

Earlier this month we had a conversation with a friend of our show, Latvian-American journalist Juris Kaža about the current security issues in the Baltics - here we discuss all the recent drone and MIG incursions and think about the appropriate response.

Due to the recent security breaches of Polish and Estonian airspace, Zapad 2025 military excercises by Russia and Belarus went somewhat unnoticed. And that's a shame, because they ended up being a complete waste of money, time, sanity and anything even remotely resemling common sense.Pictures, related to the episode:I.

A few years ago, me and my dear friend Alex (of History Impossible fame) had a deep conversation about how we’re slowly moving to a “Rule by assasination” world order. Seems that we’re at least one step closer to that, and this seemed like a VERY appropriate time to discuss political philosophy with Alex again.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

In this one, I explain some very important cultural aspects related to the war and the post-Soviet sphere, while covering all the bullshit related to Russian drone incident in Poland.

In this episode, by multiple requests, there's a deluxe edition of vatnik tears - because I've seen Putin's trolls becoming more active again lately, with two main modes of action, and in this episode I demolish them both thoroughly by using quotes of their own propaganda.Also, here's a video for you by the Ukrainian unit for whom we're collecting money so that they can get their military trucks:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWY7PTnHeVkAnd here's a link to the donation page with more details included.

Pro-Russian western people love to use 'tradition Christian values' when they argue their position. They mistakenly presume that what these values mean must be the same both for them and for Russians. This episode should clear any such delusions, because to the vatniks, they are no better than everyone else - in fact, western conservatives should abhor Russian 'traditional values' more than anyone else, as vatniks prefer their God-Emperor and Imperrium over, you know, Jesus. To the point that even the Orthodox Church itself - the proper one, that exists outside Russia - considers them blasphemers. So, grab your pitchforks and torches, put on your pointed had and let's burn some heretics, there's a LOT of blasphemy in this episode.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

Greetings, Comrades! This is a news episode - including vatnik tears. But, like I said in the Gonzo episode - war shall not be sanitized, and there is no point writing stuff that's not inspired. This one doesn't require any previous episodes or catching up, made to be shared and with an emotional kick. And I think I've found my style too. I hope you'll enjoy this new format.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
