Gaming While Ukrainian | Sacred Symbols+ Episode 202
One of the key tenets of our programming here at Last Stand is providing balance. Different perspectives, conflicting points-of-view, disparate voices. Today's episode of + is one such episode, confidently presented in the wake of Episode 197 of this very show. In that hour-and-change conversation, I invited a Russian gamer to our show, to talk about the Russian perspective on recent global events, and how that's spilled over into our industry and our hobby. Today's episode is the other side of the coin, offering a Ukrainian perspective on those same questions. To that end, Anastas Lyakh speaks with me (Colin!) about a wide range of topics, and the second half of our show is pretty much entirely focused on games. However, I warn you: Like the Russian conversation, our talk is deeply and inherently political. It won't be for everyone, and you shouldn't listen to it if you don't like 'politics' in your podcasts.
