We spend the majority of this episode discussing the situation in Ukraine, the broader historical context, what lead us to this moment, and where this could go, most places being bad. The rest of the episode we try to deliver the traditional Epoch magic you've come to love and expect. No Wars/No Sanctions. Thank you for listening.
