In this episode of The Shit Show Radio Hour, Lonnie unpacks the geopolitical history of Russia. There is a significant important fact being left out of the discussion of the current crisis in Europe. Knowing the ties between Ukraine and Russia which date back to ancient Russia, and the rise of the Slavic Empire; this small morsel of history might better help us all understand Vladimir Pututin's motives.
Moreover, it also might just lend us a sobering reality as to why Putin will not simply back down. His motives are not trivial! His motives are just the sort of thing that sparks world wars.
