This week’s episode of the Aaron Rupar Show features Tim Mak, founder and author of The Counteroffensive, discussing what it’s like to do independent human interest journalism from a warzone. We talk about the Ukrainian counteroffensive and what we know about its early progress, how Kyiv residents handle near-nightly missile strikes, the challenges involved in traveling around Ukraine to report these days, what Ukrainians are thinking and saying about US politics, and much more (including, briefly, Ukrainian McDonald’s).
