Summary

Greetings, Comrades!

This time, after all the previous super serious episodes (and the serious interview with Dmitry Potapenko and more Stalin, both incoming) we decided to do some laid-back, chill discussion about one of our favourite subjects: The Cossacks. And Daniel, is, as you all know, a foremost expert of the subject from his history podcasting days. We had a nice discussion, and it felt good, not to talk about tremendous tragedies or personal suffering or translating formal regulations of the secret police…you get the idea. This is just a fun, laid-back episode, where we finally have some fun ourselves. Enjoy!

We'll be talking about Cossacks and what do they mean, what do they stand for, what have they turned into,

and a bunch of other nonsense in the meantime because our past few episodes have

0:55.5

been so demanding and so tiring and so serious that some people are forgetting that we're

1:00.7

actually, you know, quite a funny podcast.

1:04.3

So, hey, Daniel, how's your life going?

1:08.6

It's very good, yeah.

1:10.9

Thank you for asking.

1:12.0

I like that, if, when it comes time to not be serious, you, you bring me on board.

1:16.4

That's, that's, that's, I can tell you right now, I, I do not take it seriously.

1:20.7

No, but no, it's going great.

1:22.5

I, um, uh, I, I guess, uh, since the last, I don't know the last time that we recorded together,

1:29.0

it may have been for that...

1:30.9

I think it was going to be a premium film commentary

1:34.3

that actually had too many technical difficulties for.
