Excellent podcast about Eastern Europe. Each week they provide an in-depth (yet fun and relatable) podcast on the events across Eastern Europe. I recommend it to all.

Really easy to digest, super accessible. If you are curious about this part of the world this is the best way. I binged all the previous episodes while cleaning in one weekend!

This podcast is superior to its peers in terms of geographic coverage, covering more than just CE, it even covers South Caucasus which most EE podcasts ignore. Interesting and thought provoking discussions by its moderators.
