Ep. 36 "Insane In The Ukraine Pt. 2" Volodymyr Zelensky, Donald Trump, Joe Biden & Son And Trying to kill corruption... Everywhere

Unless you're doing a podcast live or daily it's impossible to keep up with the news cycle these days so anything I do on our current craziness in Washington will only be different the next day, consequently… as of this recording I'm going back to last week's scandal which at one point was being referred to as Ukraine-gate?  Seems old doesn't it? I speak with my Ukraine comrade about the president of Ukraine: Volodymyr Zelensky.  He was the star and creator of a comedy in Ukraine called "Servant of the People". The name of the show has become an official political party in Ukraine and this year Zelensky won the presidency by a landslide claiming over 73% of the popular vote.  Think about that. When was the last time a US president won an election by that margin? Zelensky is a comedian who helped create the show where a school teacher goes on a rant about the corruption in Ukraine.  A student records it on their phone, the video goes viral and the teacher becomes the president. In talking with my comrade he tells us a couple of stories of what the president has been up to in  his country besides a phone call with DonALD-ymire TrumP-Uutin. Say that three times fast. The audio in this episode is not perfect as for security purposes we recorded it in a concrete bunker located a half mile below ground.  Actually it was recorded in an office but it sounds much more dramatic the other way doesn't it? At some points there are news clips from Ukrainian news that my friend is loosely translating for us and they are playing in the background.  It seems this scandal which has prompted an impeachment inquiry will not bode well for either our president or the democratic front-runner Joe Biden.
