from Mansplaining
Send us Fan MailIt’s fair to say that Russia is having a tougher time in Ukraine than anyone (outside of Volodymyr Zelenskyy) expected. The vaunted Russian military is performing very poorly, at least compared to our image of it from the Soviet era. But why? And might a diminished Russia pose an even greater threat to world peace? Joe and Mark discuss Putin’s folly, the nuclear threat, and what it all might mean for the rest of us. (Recorded October 21, 2022.)
