    Episode 12: War in Europe
    Mar 7 2022

    We grew up with this as a nightmare, and thought these days were over.

    Russia has invaded Ukraine, and we are stuck reliving the kind of Cold War panics we went through as children. We’re mostly just taken aback, so we don’t have any of the social media integration we’re supposed to this week, except to urge that you assist the International Red Cross.
