Fascinating backstory to today’s conflict

Easy-listening format that plays out like a well-penned political blockbuster but provides important historical context to the Russia/Ukraine war. I pressed play and wasn’t able to stop!

quite riveting a read.

Pretty riveting from my limited perspective. I cannot state if there was a bias in this story as I have very little to compared to. I DO feel there is missing something that I cannot put my finger on but it could just be me not appreciating the text.

Fascinating series.

Clear explanations about how Putin roze to the top & how uses his power .

very informative

This was great, reminded me of things I had forgotten over the years. Gave me a more informed view of where countries like the Ukraine are now.

Putin it Up

Nice to have another perspective of Vladimir besides PBS Fontlines view. Putin the World Player!

Excellent podcast

This was a great podcast, it was informative, interesting and easy to follow. It was easy to get hooked in the fascinating stories.

compelling subject

I want to know more! The history of that region is fascinating and Putin is a very compelling subject

Informative interview

This episode wraps up the series nicely with some expert opinion on future possibilities.

poor finalé

You allowed your anti Trump bias ruin this series .

If I wanted BBC bias I would seek it out. Shove it back up your "elohssa"

Trump vs Putin inaccuracies, but entertaining

Story is entertaining and interesting with regard to explaining Putin's rise to power but makes statements about Russia's involvement in US elections that are not backed up and just follows the media's current far left narrative without any substantiated evidence. One quote in either chapter 6 or 7 basically claims Putin backed Trump and helped him win the election but we know that this media narrative has never been proven in court despite millions of dollars spent in prosecution of Trump. Entertaining listen but definitely some bias in the content.
