I'm lithuanian and we LOVE Latvia and Estonia. I get it that we are probably the most emotional of the lot, but we love you guys!
Yes, absolutely. The Baltic way seems to have glued us together for good:)
I respect the Baltic countries. Greetings from across the pond in America 🇺🇸
I am Norwegian and really happy that you are our friends. We belong together and have always done that;)
Just converge into 1 country..
Brolukas sveikas. Viskas gerai? As tavos draugas. 🤣
I was excited beyond words when I got the notification for this. Please do part 2. We love Georgie, Artur. Thank you for having him and letting him do his swears (I love that too. He’s so blunt!). 😁Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
Me too...going to start now🤗
I would also like to see a follow up Part 2
I also follow Georgie, as I like his informative straight blunt talk
🐉
Georgie says what he feels, whether he swears or not is not a big thing, but staying focused on his honest feeling is really awesome.
Thank you, Artur. Great interview with great information. Slava Ukraini
Here we got another Sheep.
As a Canadian Combat Veteran, and I'm a disabled Vet so I've paid a bit of a price for my choices, I'm with both of you, any compassion I had for Russians is long gone. There's just no excuses just as there were no excuses for the genocides I faught against. And if Putin had his way, this is what this war would be, a genocide! Because hr doesn't care, Putin wants what wants & the consequences be dammed. Georgie I subbed you just because of what you said here & I agree 110%. I could say so much towards everything you guys discussed but nobody is here for what I have to say haha. Great talk guys, keep up the excellent work & thank you. Both of you have a Merry Christmas & all the best in 2023
Thank you for your selfless service. 🍁🍁 I'm thankful every day to have been born Canadian.
Hi Sir, an Aussie here.
I would love to hear more 😎. I wanted to know what conflict you fought in and how you portrayed the situation.
Georgie is a very intelligent, top notch guy. None of his videos have disappointed yet. Keeps me from falling in to the wider media trap of doom and gloom.
Other interesting UA-cam personalities are:
Stephen Kotkin
Mike Mcfaul
Silicon Curtain
And for some insane Geopolitics:
Peter Zeihan
Thank u sincerely. Ohio USA 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 from my perspective, the US and Canada are one in the same peoples.
@@markb8468 completely agree my Brother. I was posted to the 82nd for 6 years & to this day have many Brothers from other Mothers that truly are my family. And sadly, both our countries are very broken at present & the only way out, imho, is to have each other's backs & work together.
Have a Merry Christmas & all the best to you in the New Year
@@shaneomax2296 appreciate you words very much and the feeling is very mutual! Wish I was as sucessful on my channel, but I can't resist commenting on such close to my heart issues here. Have a Merry Christmas and all the best to you in the New Year.
While you both are educating us on the war, we are also learning about your cultures, as well as the nations around you and Russia as well. Understanding all of this creates the perspective that is missing from many other war video channels.
Guys, never forget how important you are. Without people like you, we here in the West have no frame of reference. You collectively teach us about your part of the world, much more than school ever did. Thank you. Do not hold your tongues. We NEED to hear your truth.
Low-Key, "The Ukraine Matters" Channel is one of the most underrated channels in reference to the Ukraine War Coverage! He doesn't have that may subscribers (less than 40k), but he's good!!
Tittle was: "Putin Delusional". That's really a switch since in the beginning of this disaster everyone was accusing Zelensky of being "delusional" by standing up to Russian aggression. But now it would appear that Zelensky is the "rational" thinker and Putin is quite "delusional" by thinking that he (Russia) will be able to "keep" any portion of Ukraine territory. Great interview. Thank you very much. Glory to Ukraine! and Condemnation to Russia!!!
Great discussion guys. You added incredible perspective beyond Vlad Vexler, but he provides deep seeded perspective. You provided functional understanding of Russian dysfunction in life.
This was one of the best episode so far, you two are great together, please make this dude a recurring guest
Great 👍 conversation - please do a part 2 ( or even part 3, 4, etc) at a later stage. Georgie is great, love Ukraine Matters! The conversational style of these podcasts is very good. Loved this Baltic conversation, in particular for people from Western countries long overdue to listen to people from outside our bubble.
I completely get the anger with the Russian population at large. However, I very much enjoy conversations with Natasha, Zack, Vlad, … Russians who are openly critical about the war and Putin, and at the same time reflective and analytical when it comes to Russia/ Russian people/ etc. And I do think they should be platformed and supported… I am rather impressed by Natasha and Zack in terms of their clarity in analysis and reflections.
Danish Dynamite for the win! Slava Ukraini. Glory to the heroes.
Glad to hear perspectives from the Baltic states, as you are right about Russia entangling itself with Ukraine in a fight that has exposed its inadequacy at being only capable of scorched-earth military actions, with Ukraine taking casualties and being bombed out over the long period that it will take for Russias resources or will to fight through Putin's direction to run out of forward momentum. You are correct at the going for the unsatisfactory peace allowing a lot fo tyranny to exist in the world.
Artur - I wasn't aware of your guest's channel. Thanks for helping expose some of us to him. I think this podcast thing is working out.
I find it amazing how unique the chemistry is between each pair of UA-camrs that collaborate together. Great job!
16:12 - "People are effing dying", that's what I tell the clowns in my life who try to be 'neutral' in this war of psychopathy from Putin
I watch UA-camrs because you get real unfiltered (most of the time) information. This is one of the few place you can get a world view not sculpted by big money. Keep up the great work.
Both of you guys are a joy and informative to listen too. Slava Ukraini
👏👏👏👏👏
For non native English speakers, it’s fascinating how well spoken and articulate you both are! Really grateful for all of these youtubers making content for our spoiled asses. I’ve tried to learn bits of Finnish, Swedish, Ukrainian, Polish and even Russian.
It’s incredibly difficult!
I thought the same thing! Very grateful and privileged to have so many articulate English speakers …..I feel much shame 😔
My Mother is western Ukrainian and spoke 5 languages.. She thought english was the hardest. Then again she grew up speaking Ukrainian and russian till she was 5 years old. AND LIVING IN THE US!!
I agree. Artur’s annunciation is better than most Americans that I know.
Artur lived in California for 3 years so that's why his English is good. The other fellow I don't know but I'd bet he has also lived in an English-speaking society for a while. His English is too colloquial to be entirely learned in school.
@@hctim96 my grandfather fled Ukraine in 1921 at the age of 13 or 14 because he was Jewish and Russians were doing what they do…. I never heard him speak any Ukrainian though. I think because he was so young when he left he didn’t really keep an accent either. I don’t know… anyway, not sure if your mom is still alive but I hope you and your family are doing well! Slava Ukraini!
As a Dane i wish you guys had gone over the flag story i know the Danish version of events, but never heard it from an Estonian POV.
Thanks for another very interesting interview
I know the reason concerning the Danish flag too, but I would like to know the Dane version.
@@blacklion8208 the Danish version is while fighting "pagans" the battle was going poorly, so a monk started praying for victory and as long as he prayed while holding his hands high, the Danes were winning.
But he got tired and even had 2 guys holding his arms up, but then god allegedly send down the flag as a symbol of Victory and the monk's prayer wasn't needed.
Yes to the 2nd part. Really enjoyed it. You both put Latvia and Esthonia in our map for traveling as well but of course after Ukraine. Keep up the good work. Slava Ukraini💙💛💙💛
Another great podcast Artur! Very entertaining & enlightening! Both of you keep up your great work. Slava Ukraini!!
We need a part 2!! Great Podcast👍👍
Thank you chaps. Good chat and make part 2 🇿🇦🇺🇦
Thanks for collaborating ,you two ,are some of my daily routine ,
to check out the current Ukraine status !
Allways Informativ and sometimes funny ,in this shitty time we live in.
Greets from Germany and Slava Ukraine!
New sub Artur. Do a part two please. By the way I had the good fortune here in the US/NJ of knowing some Estonians and they were some of the nicest people I have ever met. So happy to see Estonia doing well and and educating the world about exactly the quality of Russians and it syncs well with I have heard from the family from above way back in the 80s. Slava Ukraine!!!
Bravo Artur on another great podcast today! Look forward to part two with Georgie. I like his non sugar coated way of delivering his viewpoints. Artur, you have had some great guests on and look forward to seeing them all back again in the future. Look forward to Vlad Vexler coming soon. He's one of my favorite channels I watch regularly. Once you learn how to "speak Vlad" he becomes an indispensable addition to your information arsenal. Thanks my man!
Years ago Brisbane had a Lord Mayor who did not take a pay check until the entire city was fully sewered with flushing toilets could you imagine that happening in Russia?
Thanks guys, I am following both of your channels for a few months now. Great to see you dialogue together. Please keep up the great work.
I appreciate these podcasts and the work it takes to bring them to us.
Give Ukraine all they need to win, not only to fight. 🇩🇰🇺🇦 From Danmark Charlotte 🍀
Well done guys! Thank you for discussing the criminal organization that is the Russian state.
Russian leadership is a bully system and a bully only understands when his a** gets kicked.
Ukraine is doing that, and as such, deserves the total support of the west.
Artur love your content, been watching everything and can't stop,big ups to you and mad respect from canada
This is was a great episode! This one and the one with Anna are really stepping it up and I think feeling out the conversations a little better. Do part 2!
Shame to hear about Roman declining a spot here. I hope Zack answered positively. He's one of the precious few outspoken Russian men against Putlin who's actively supporting Ukraine refugees in Georgia. And yes, I agree Russian citizens should be evaluated individually.
Roman has always been a pussy
Love watching your shows, nice that you are doing something together now. SLAVA UKRAINI!
Love both of you.
37:55 about Putin laughing, why someone has a car but no road:
This reminded me a lot of Marie Antoinette getting asked for bread during a famine and she said "why don't you eat cake instead".
I could listen to more. Make part two please.
I love these 2. And I find Georgie’s bluntness very refreshing. I could listen to them talk for 3 hours.
Sorry for making another entry here but what you said about Russians (men & women) acting as if they are tough guys me & my wife went on holiday to Turkey some 15 years ago for two weeks after a great first week a massive crowd (30 or 35) Russians arrived & completely took over the hotel drinking all day & half the night screaming & shouting splashing in the swimming pool & partying around the pool when it was supposed to be closed at 6 pm for safety reasons & every one in the hotel were afraid to approach them as they were always drunk some being sick all around the place needless to say they ruined our second week & we have not gone to Turkey since sorry for that rant but it reminded me of that holiday.
“I’ve been to russia once but it was when it was the soviet union and I don’t remember much “

😀Слава Україні
The big cities got a westernized middleclass. This barely touched middlesized cities, let alone the countryside inbetween. Travelling between Finland and Petersburg looked the same in 2019 as in 1991. The tarmac has improved, but the sight through the car windows looks the same.
Edit: I commented for the algorithm, not to destroy Artur's impressive quick answer.
This also made me laugh. I was in Russia (and Ukraine) in 1968. Couldn't believe how corrupt, paranoid and dark Russian society was. And how energetic, forward-looking and optimistic Ukraine was. Russia is still the same now. Ukraine is showing its true roots and aspirations. Slava Ukraini!
Yes, I think it was in the 1400s that Poles ruled over the Cossacks in the now Southern Ukraine. The 1962 film Taras Bulba depicted this starring Yul Brynner and Tony Curtis. Things change, as Poland is now a staunch supporter of Ukraine.
In the US, we proudly embrace and advocate for "self direction" but we call it self determination. A tad bit more assertive and a big reason why we are in awe and so inspired by the Ukrainian decision to fight for their sovereign right to self determination. Of course, as I am an old woman now, I totally understand now that we Americans are still flawed human beings but we have never let go of the concept of our right to self determination. What we keep working on is how to better secure for all of us and do a better job of it as years go on. We have our "bumps"--like recent years--but we will get better, again. And we sincerely want this for everyone in the world.
Great podcast! Georgie is definitely no ostrich! Becoming a subscriber to Artur Rehi ! Thanks y’all! From a U.S. Southerner.
Thank you guys from Washington state us. Love both of your personality’s. Both of your channels are how I get my daily news about Ukraine
....personalities....
Hi guys, thank you to both of you for your dedication. I just wanted to respond to something Artur said about donating to large charity organizations. The problem with a lot of them is that they have huge administrative budgets so maybe 40% of your donations go to Ukraine the rest to salaries. I personally donate to a Canadian volunteer combat medic who is completely transparent where the money goes. He buys medical supplies, generators, and vehicles. UA-cam channel Brandon_tbic. Check out his channel and make your own decision. Slava Ukraine ❤️
I totally agree. I get worried sick for him after a couple days when I don't see any new posts. What a brave sole.
Fun podcast guys. Interesting to get a feel for the perception of two Baltic nations.
How the west saw the east under the USSR system was as you say....there was so little information generally speaking, that there was only a "them" and "us".
The vlog by Anna from Ukraine is an excellent eye opener.
If you asked most people in the west..."what do you know about Ukraine?" A year ago...you'd struggle to get an answer. Now however, all this has changed. This is down to people like you who have brought this knowledge. So a big thanks!!
27 years ago, the war in ex. Yugoslavia. Everything that happens in Ukraine happened in the same way in Yugoslavia. Starting from idiotic justifications, to the demolition of entire settlements, terrible crimes, and difficult battles against a stronger enemy. Literally bare handed. I was standing in the trench with the hunting shotgun my father used to hunt. Without outside help. Terrible, bloody... I hoped there would never be another war. And then Putin ruined everything.
Enjoy both of your insights and passion. Thanks for all your work.
Support from Australia 🇦🇺 to 🇺🇦
I also have enjoyed learning about your countries 👍 through you guys
Very good content, a second part is definitely in order with Georgie. I would have to say that Artur is only the second Estonian I know of. The first one would be Markko Märtin who was a WRC rally driver and my FAVORITE one at that. Cheers from the USA!
Please do part 2! Really enjoyed listening to your conversation.
Well spoken. I totally agree with you both.
Bruh...15 minutes into this video and I love this guy!! There's nothing like being BLUNT!! It is what it is and no matter who's feelings get hurt!! Yeah 🔥💪👊 thank you Arthur from bringing him on! Will SUB 👌
Yes you definitely need a part 2 to all your podcasts so far.ive genuinely enjoyed every single one of them so much that I felt like they were all too short.you have a gift for all this UA-cam stuff bro 🤘🏼
I totally agree with Georgie about the Russian attitude towards this war against Ukraine. Now I know base on hearing many Russians living outside some of them are bloggers as well, that they have no appetite to resist Putin's action in Ukraine meaning they have no balls, the Iranian women have more balls than the Russian men. They want freedom but they don't want to resist or annoyed Putin or at least to protest because they're afraid to be jailed. As I mentioned in my other comments in other program that if they really wants change they should organize a protest or rally en masse meaning at least a million people so that the police or the government has no pace to jail a million or more people. Most Russians are comfortable with their lives as long as they eat 3 times a day and have a decent job, they're ok with that.
Very glad to have found your channel a few days ago and have watched your interview with Vlad twice. Very intelligent and insightful stuff here and I’ll now go explore this guest’s channel. Thank you.
don't underestimate the fact your good people that make content, which is as important when I choose who to spend my free time watching. or underestimate the silent majority that find you good company no matter the content. I have about 10 channels that are my favourite Artur being one of them. thanks and merry Christmas
Heey Artur, loving your podcasts mate, keep them up, they are very insightful and natural! You are doing a great job at letting people speak their mind! Thank you for your time and work!
Of course all russians are not the same. Just like all men or women are not the same. As a group it’s reasonable to call a fascist a fascist.
I love two big channels meeting and discussing about those topics. That's so cool. Good job 👍
I have just finished and loaded up a paper on 'Putin and the economics of kleptocracy.' Where it comes to Putin and Russia it seems likely, given my research, is that what we have here is a group of gangsters, not just KGB men, who made a coup, barely noted, at the end of Yeltsin's reign. There are documents between these people. Consequently, they own Russia. Not simply rule, but own. I agree with you about Putin: a godfather not an intelligence.
I certainly agree with your comments on Russia from watching Kyiv Media where POWs are interviewed. They seem not to have consciences.
One of the Russian Fairies is the woman in the EU Parliament from Ireland. The one screaming and yelling against funding Ukraine and imposing sanctions against Russia. I can’t help but wonder if she has the same position on the British in Northern Ireland. While watching her once on her a podcast, she another Co-Chair argued the most infantile argument. Basically it’s ok for Russia to invade Ukraine as the Americans did in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Grande, Panama … whatever ones position of the invasions of other nations Two wrongs do make a right… went right over their head… can’t fix stupid
More guys 🇺🇦🏴🇱🇻🇪🇪
Very insightful, you guys do a very good job of explaining what is going on, thank you. Please do part 2.
Okay guys I loved it make part2.
There were some nice Pearls of wisdom dropped here today.
Hello from Anchorage. -14F here today.
Yes to par 2 👏👏👏
Both of you great 👍 work 👏.
2 of my favorite guys! Yes. More please!
"On the money". There comes a time when the refusal (for whatever reason) to stand up and be counted means your name is added to the list of those complicit in the execution of crimes against humanity.
Great Video of two amazing UA-camrs following the Invasion of Ukraine. Different insights and views, Thanks to both of you, I enjoyed watching👍
Thanks to both of you ❤️ I follow both of you almost every day 😍
🇩🇰❤️🇺🇦
I am British and to an extent I'm proud to be British. But we should not be imposing our will on other countries. We should be enthusiastically European and lead by example, and help people who need help. After the war Ukraine will make for a more robust Europe. Russia had its chance to be part of Europe in the 1990s as an equal partner and it chose to be separate. UK will eventually renounce Brexit to rejoin its destiny to be part of Europe, and maybe one day Russia will too. Friends are stronger than servants.
Your post has an opinion not mentioned anywhere else except by me. My posts clarify how I believe the UK has to reform itself PRIOR to reintegrating into Europe. These reforms could include the Monarchy, but have to include Parliament. When the UK returns to the EU, it has to ally with Germany to reform EU governance so the physical bureaucracy in Brussels is reined in and is not dominated by France.
Artur always looks like a super hero in the thumbnail, and it's TRUE
All Ukrainians I know in Spain are hard-working (would like to have more immigrants from Ukraine). Most Russians I know in Russia are lazy. Some Russians I know in Spain are hard-working too. My conclusion is that Russia makes people lazy there. They rely on raw materials too much.
I totally agree. No excuses.
awesome discussion. keep it up. i have been watching you both and its good to see your perspectives mesh. lets do #2
Very Enjoyable. Waiting for Part 2
Yes, please make Part 2!
Really interesting to hear you both share your views and perspectives - great vid :)
42:01 - sums everything up quite nicely... 😊
Slava Ukraini!!🇺🇦
Exciting news that Pres. Zelenskyy is coming to congress tomorrow. Can only imagine the security.
45:20 Grand Duchy of Lithuania was composed by many nations, with their languages and religions. No need to pull everyone back to middle-ages as Russians are trying to do.
Inside Russia prays a lot.
# UKRAINE MATTERS 🇺🇦!!!
Yah make part 2. You guys did some great explaining about a ton of smaller issues. Very educational on realities. Cheers.
That WAS great! Please do a Part 2. I found this through Georgie, and I immediately subscribed. Great work.
Georgie, yes, "all shit can come my way.".....why? Well, in this Canadian household we know that Georgie Can More Than Handle It! Smart dialogue and well articulated comes from Georgie. You got this ! 👍💯💝🇨🇦
🇺🇸 As school children we were drilled concerning what to do when under nuclear threat, i.e. the Cuban Missle Crisis. As a career employee in a military industrial complex, I was reminded of this threat at any given time for decades. As an elderly man, I now say that it is time to end our innate fear of the wrath of Russia.
Talking about the initial part of the conversation, I, as a Brazilian living in Estonia, learned a lot during this time.
In school, my geography book had only one paragraph about the Baltics talking about the movements that started the collapse of the USSR.
When this war started and I saw people saying a lot of crap about it, I just said that they don't know shit about what happens in this part of the world.
I give you both credit for doing what you are doing.
A couple of my favorite, guys getting a chat.. part 2 yes..
Part 2 please & thanks
I’m British & I respect all peace-loving, law-abiding, democratic-believing peoples (Russians included). It comes down to individual choice & action. There’s a spectrum of understanding & belief in all societies but everyone has a choice where they stand. Let’s face it, if we don’t stand up to right-Wing ideas that want to strangle freedoms or dictators who hate freedom & who poison the minds of people, we will regress into barbarism & war.
Victory to Ukraine.
I like this Guy. I am subscribing to Ukraine Matters NOW. 🙏🏻💛💙🇺🇦
This is my favorite episode, along with the first one featuring Jake. Very insightful.
Thank you so much to you both for this podcast and being voices of reason in the whole discussion of the approach towards russians. I fully agree with your position. I was born as a child of Polish dissidents and I also wanted to underline this that we’ve always loved Baltic countries: Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. During the time I’ve been growing up in Poland I often heard how Baltics were set as an example of successful transformation for us. Thank you so much and keep up the good work! Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦 💪🏻✊🏻👍🏻🇺🇦💙💛
Excellent guys, thanks. A part two between you guys would be very interesting, half time with one's questions and half time with the others questions? VERY interesting to hear about Estonia, Latvia take too.
Every country has the government it deserves.
~Joseph de Maistre
Thank you Georgie , so refreshing to hear you stating point blank about the newly mobilised Russian soldiers who are such self serving cowards. who together with their families are only interested in self preservation not the criminal mmorality of genocide and rape .
