About this episode

This is the beginning of a new subproject of the Gaslight Hour where Dexter De Le Paz will cover current events in a weekly format. We will probably eventually paywall at least some of these, if we ever get that working. In this episode, Dex discuses the recent protests in Russia and Bulgaria with @Lispegistus from twitter. The discussion covers the protests, Nalvany, Putin's alleged mansion, and broader topics of eastern Europeon civic society.
