0:00.0 | Hello comrades, welcome back to modern wisdom. |
0:03.6 | My guest today is Nina Jankowitz and we're talking about Russia's election meddling and their fake news misinformation disinformation campaign, |
0:12.6 | which I didn't, I just thought was like an internet rumour and turns out is this hugely sophisticated campaign, |
0:20.4 | which has been going on for years and years, and is utilising local actors and citizens of individual countries |
0:27.9 | to cause all sorts of havoc. This really did blow my mind, so yeah, get ready for this one. |
0:34.3 | In other news, this episode is brought to you by tailored athlete. |
0:38.5 | I will not be wearing jeans for the foreseeable future with my bigger killies boot on, |
0:42.4 | however, I will be wearing everything else that they make. |
0:45.9 | You know what it is like if you're a guy who goes to the gym, you spend a bit of time training in the gym |
0:50.6 | and then you start to look great with your shirt off and terrible with your shirt on. |
0:53.9 | None of your clubs fit anymore. They're all too boxy around the waist or the too tight around the shoulders. |
0:58.4 | The solution is tailored athlete. T-shirts, jeans, shorts, polo shirts, dress shirts and much more |
1:06.3 | all have stretch fabrics in, which means that they are finally as comfortable as you want them to be. |
1:12.2 | Like anyone who goes to the gym, you want to have the feeling of constantly wearing sportswear |
1:19.4 | when you are made to wear denim or you've got to go to work and put a shirt on or whatever. |
1:23.8 | And this is kind of what that's like. |
1:25.7 | Kind of like constantly wearing joggers and a nicely fitted T-shirt, but it can be anything. |
1:32.4 | It can look like anything on the outside. |
1:33.8 | So the Harry Potter magic that tailored athlete have applied to all of their clubs is available |
1:38.4 | today and you can get free shipping on any size order that is an exclusive deal that is only available here |
1:45.1 | and you can get that in the UK and in the US. |
