Listen to the last episode:

Day 1,234.

Today, after a report finds Putin’s forces have gained 0.038 square kilometers of territory for every soldier it’s lost since July 2024, we look at the significance of new announcements by Ukraine’s allies in Rome and London, and discuss the Ukrainian theory of victory.
