Hello, and welcome to another episode of the lines led by Donkeys podcast.

With me today is Nick, what's up Nick, howdy duty, and we are both dealing with incredible

hangovers which you can consider the method acting because we're talking about the first

battle of Grozny today, Nick.

Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, you left me on a cliffhanger last time, it was kind of bullshit.

This is part three of our first Chechen War series.

I have a feeling that much like our Russo-Japanese War series, if there's going to be an episode

that people are going to just randomly jump into, it's going to be this one.

For our Russo-Japanese War, it was the voyage of the damned.

And I think this one for a lot of people is certainly like everybody who wants to hear about

the battle of Grozny.

Oh, yeah.

I try not to judge like the dumbest shit we've ever covered because like, you know, this

is in the 90s.

We've covered a lot of dumb shit from like the 1800s, 1600s, whatever, 1970s, you know.

It's really hard to rank a podium of bad or stupid battles, but if we had one, I think

Grozny makes it.

Not T-Rex's versus the English?

That's just good tactics.
