It’s a busy weekend here at The Dispatch, with two episodes of Dispatch Live for members to tune into.

As we mentioned on Tuesday, we moved this week’s episode to Saturday afternoon, both to mark the second anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and to allow two Ukraine-based reporters—Bennett Murray and Tim Mak—to participate from seven time zones away.

Bennett is a freelance journalist who recently wrote a deeply reported piece for us after spending a week-and-a-half with Ukraine’s 29th Mechanized Brigade on the frontlines near the Russian-occupied city of Bakhmut. Tim is a journalist and former U.S. Army combat medic who in 2022 founded The Counteroffensive, a Kyiv-based publication aimed at telling “the personal stories of people threatened by authoritarianism.” He last joined The Dispatch Podcast in December, and recently published an investigative piece detailing the battle of Antonov Airfield, which saved Kyiv from Russian occupation early in the war.

They will be joined by Steve, Jonah, Mary, and Declan at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT to discuss the state of the war, where the effort to provide additional U.S. military aid stands, and much more. Information on how to tune in can be found below:

    Loved the live events. Thanks for doing them. There’s a different vibe when you’re in the room together vs zoom. Hope you can do more like that.

    didn't get much from this - as far as the hosting of podcasts go, the Dispatch has one option - Sarah, and she's great at it - everyone else kinda sucks - they may be great employees etc etc, but only a select group of people have the 'performance' skills required to make a podcast click - and aside from Sarah, Jonah and maybe Stirewalt, the Dispatch has a thin lineup as far as 'performing' goes

    as for content, I wanted military and strategic analysis - 'the West' is failing in Ukraine and we very much need to understand why and come up with solutions - right now we're heading towards a loss in Ukraine, meaning Putin holds onto what he has with all his evil intentions merely delayed - that ain't good, it didn't have to be that way, and no one in the West seems to understand what a disastrous outcome this will be - America is a mess politically, where the next commander in chief is guaranteed to be'bad' in various different ways depending on which idiot wins - whether it's Biden, Trump or Harris a year from now, it all reads as awful - and Europe still doesn't get it - those countries need a complete rethink of and change in approach to security/military matters, and that's not really happening - possibly because their abilities and societal 'attributes' may have decayed to such a degree that they can't fix it - and that would be a very bad thing

    Could not listen in real time d/t this was a long workday.

    However, this was invigorating. Switched off a depressing NPR politics about the predictable results in the South Carolina primary to hear about something that really matters.

    Double fun this weekend! Great!

    Just one thing: Please remember to put the YouTube links into the calendar items. The second one has it, but not the first one, at least not for Google Calendar.
