Summary

Greetings, Comrades!

This episode is a fundraiser. Because I must visit you guys, and see how amazing the US is. And now I have the chance to do so, which I simply can’t miss. Also, this episode is a special one. About how the art people felt in the Soviet era, purely made from stories that I gathered from people working in the theater and opera. As I hadn’t had a people’s history show for a while, I sincerely hope that you’ll enjoy this one!
