@dmitri This was by far the most well-informed and high quality review of military operations in Ukraine than anything else Iโ€™ve encountered through various Twitter discussions, news outlets, podcasts, etc.

The depth of knowledge and analytical thoroughness of Jack and Justinโ€™s material was evident and very, very welcome. Thanks for coordinating this episode.

@dmitri To qualify that and suppress my exuberance slightly, the other episodes in Geopolitics Decanted have also been very very good. I think the difference here is that I follow other contributors on Twitter, so the podcast content was not as ๐’๐’†๐’˜ to me as that in this latest episode.
