Thank you. I want to welcome everyone back to the Pekiniano show.

Dr Matthew Raphael Johnson is back. How are you doing

Dr. Johnson? Well I appreciate you having me back. I'm not doing too badly.

Great, great. So got a topic here that I know is of interest to a lot of people and there was no one else that I really thought to contact to talk about it.

A lot of people talk about what happened, the

revolution and the subsequent civil war that happened in Russia, especially

starting in 1917 but really nobody starts getting into the

nuts and bolts of how it carried out and how it played out so I wanted to have you

on today and I guess we'll start right at about the time that

After the October takeover and go from there. So you up for that? Yeah, it's what I do. You know, for better or for worse, it's what I do and I have in fact so much writing on the topic. I can't keep them straight. I have so many papers in

this era and of course my book the Soviet experiment really deals with the period of

between 1917 and I don't know 1930.

So the early part is I think the most interesting.

And yeah, there's a lot of course that the mainstream historians refuse to mention and I want to fix that I want to fix it right now in fact

You you have the floor go right ahead. I will interrupt with any questions and anytime you

want to, you feel like a topic has come to an end. I'm sure I will have a question written

down here for you.
