Summary

Greetings, Comrades!

You might find that this episode is not as epic as the previous one – but that’s because we’re overworked. Anyway, we tried our best, and here it is. It’s very patriotic, however. And also – we’re on google podcasts now. For other news, listen to the show. Also, Ieva Akurātere is awesome.

Today’s picture is a photo from the October 7th manifestation for a just state.

And here’s the link to Ieva Akurātere – My Country, in the 1988 Liepājas Dzintars festival:
