Summary

Greetings, Comrades! Here we are, with the 6th part of our series on the Russian revolution. Creating this episode and explaining what was going on in this time period was about as difficult as explaining the thoughts of a sugar cube, slowly dissolving into a cup of coffee. I, personally, blame Trotsky. And Lenin. If you're not constantly asking "What? But...why?" as you're listening to this episode about everyone's war against everyone, ridiculous decrees and attempts to consolidate power, you're doing it wrong. Also, tragic story of Ukraine. With hetmans and warlords and everything. And no, this is not about a video game. Enjoy!
