In this episode, we take a look of the Russian economy and what the main news stories not related to the war were in Russian infosphere. Spoiler alert: They’re more screwed than you could probably imagine. And that’s even IF they manage to end the war with something positive.

0:12.9 | Greetings, comrades, and welcome to the Eastern Borders. Now, let me be straight up with you. This is the second episode I record today, because I |
0:22.0 | actually managed to do a bit of overtime working. I have slept about two hours in the past |
0:27.3 | two nights, but I recorded that episode I mentioned in the last one where I speak about Victor's |
0:33.3 | Alexness and, well, tiny spoilers. We also look at some more Russian propaganda manuals given to the |

1:29.1 | The only people who are like right now spewing nonsense |
1:31.4 | are the very same Vatniks. |
1:33.8 | Which is like, but that's so |
1:35.2 | lame that I'm not even going to bother with this |
1:37.2 | because if you remember back when |
