How are you guys doing this episode of sponsored by American Giant?

I feel really good about my prediction I made the other day on the fact that the Russians

would be forced to retreat by the end of the weekend and I'm going to stand

by it from what I can tell from the movement on the ground.

It isn't looking too good for the Russians that decided to stick around and hold the city of Lyman,

but we're going to talk about it here in a minute or so.

Now, if you are an American that is somehow still, I don't know, hanging out inside of Russia,

like doing God knows what, and you've just so happened to watch these episodes to hear if it's

a good time to leave or not. Well, Russia is now going to, well, it's probably a good time for you to leave.

I'm just good though not there. But if you are an American living in Russia,

I don't have much faith in your comments at the first place, but the US Embassy is actually now

saying the one in Moscow is urging Americans to leave Russia immediately as Putin has escalated

the war in time of Ukraine. I know this is goofy and trying to laugh, but they claim that Russia is

going to be refusing to acknowledge any US citizenship for dual nationals that is or even enlist them,

or they're going to enlist them for military service they will. So imagine this, you are a dual

citizen American living in Russia. You get called up to fight inside of Ukraine against American

weapons. Oh, that would suck, but I guess if you stuck around this entire time, you probably

don't really care that much, I guess. I don't know. There I am, but I don't you worry, the Russians

are calling up their youngest and they're most intelligent up to fight inside of the war inside of

Ukraine. Now the best part about this is the laws inside of Russia,

regards to the age of men being called up is the fact that they're very carefully worded,

and of course those under 35 were merely prioritized, but the older Russians are being swapped
