Chris, first of all, I love your podcast and in my opinion, you elevate every Badlands show that you host. I have a question regarding a statement you made on the recent DPH. At GART, I told you that friends of mine have been to Ukraine, and I told you this only because you had mentioned in a previous podcast that none of us have actually been there so we don’t really know anything is actually happening there. I just heard you say on DPH that recently some people have told you they do personally know people who have been/are now there, and you “don’t give a shit” because they don’t know what’s really happening over there. I agree (and even said to you) that even those who have been/are there don’t really know what’s truly happening) I did tell you that their houses are being destroyed by SOMEONE—and no one even knows which side is doing it. I was just trying to give you a tiny sliver of insight that you didn’t previously have, and your comment makes me regret having done so, because it sounds like you’re saying, don’t bother telling me things like that because I don’t “give a shit.” My question is, should I not have bothered telling you? I am wondering if I’m misinterpreting what you meant, or am I getting it right, because if I am getting it right, then going forward I’ll be careful not to approach you with information that I’m pretty sure you don’t give a shit about..

Hi Lynn,

I’m sorry my comments sounded that way but I can assure you I was not thinking of our conversation when I made them. I was thinking of a conversation I had late last year with a friend of a friend who was actually Australian and in town from Mallorca who was trying to tell me Azov weren’t Nazis and I should believe her because she had friends in Ukraine.

I enjoy anecdotes and on-the-ground stories always. But like everything else, they’re information among other information, and that was the point I was making. I thought that was clear in the context of the discussion Saturday. It would be similar to the people saying that masks worked because their uncle was a doctor.

Anyway, sorry for the confusion and you’re welcome to share whatever you think will be relevant.

Ah! I’m very glad I asked—it probably should have been clear to me in context. Thanks very much for responding and explaining. That definitely cleared things up for me :)

Sarcasm that bites like a piranha till there's no child-brained, Commie argument left. 🤣 Thanks for the treat! Hope your move is going well.
