  Pensioners With Drones and Russia's Fog of Information Control

  Jun 2, 202613 minS0

  Russia is now training elderly pensioners to operate drones as part of its expanding civilian drone programs tied to the war in Ukraine. A headline from inside Russia called it exactly what it is: complete absurdity. This episode unpacks what that program actually signals about the demographic and military pressures the Kremlin is facing, from mobilization waves the government refuses to call mobilization, to a pension system that already triggered nationwide protests in 2018. When a country starts handing joysticks to retired schoolteachers, it is not a heartwarming community story. It is a window into how a prolonged war consumes everything...

  Victory Day in Russia: Parade for One and Drones Over Grozny

  May 9, 202612 minS0

  May 9th in Russia — Victory Day — is the holiest date on the national calendar. But this year's holiday told two stories at once, and together they reveal exactly what the ritual has become. The first story is about the parade itself.

  Refugee from Russia Podcast: They Are Preparing New Meat — Children in Southern Russia Are Being Taught War

  Mar 26, 202613 minS0

  In this episode, we examine a disturbing headline about children in southern Russia being taught war. What does the phrase “new meat” reveal about how militarized patriotism is shaping young people, and why does it matter beyond Russia’s borders?We discuss the broader ecosystem of military messaging in schools, youth organizations, camps, cadet programs, and public events, and how these experiences can normalize war for the next generation. This is a careful look at propaganda, patriotism, and the way children can be drawn into a culture of conflict.Note: This episode is based on a translated headline and context, so som...

  Mar 23, 202616 minS0

  In this episode of Refuge from Russia, Tami breaks down how fast-moving war headlines can ripple through oil markets, gas prices, and global energy security.

The episode also explores the U.S. balancing act between sanctions and fuel costs, and why temporary policy changes can have outsized effects on global markets.
