Recommended by Two Grumpy Old Men on Ukraine 🇺🇦

I'm a Brit who spends a lot of time volunteering in Ukraine, especially the east, which is worst affected by the war. I travel, conduct interviews, dodge missiles and try to see the situation with minimal filter so I can help people back home do the same.

Anna gets around to places and angles and people that most don't. And we, in fact, learn things about Ukraine. Thanks. (PS: Anna, I want to bring you on my podcast soon, please!)
