We’ve heard about a lot of evil on Secret Police, but the actions of the Kempeitai and the wider Imperial Japanese Army are particularly poignant for their brutality and the extent to which violence prevails if you believe your enemy is inhuman. Who were the Kempeitai? How did the Kempeitai develop out of Japan’s long military history? What were th…

In this episode: hostage crisis in Rostov-on-Don, look at Putin's article for a North Korean newspaper, some deligthful Z-wankery and economic news as Russia's drowning in payday loans.

Belousov has replaced Shoigu as Russia's minister of defense - and for some reason, western media reports this as a threatening thing for Ukraine. In this episode I explain why they're mistaken, and how this proves that Putin's admitting that he no longer has endless money for the war effort.

While I was in Texas, enjoying the honeymoon I knew I had to record stuff, because the show won't wait for me, but I did not want to do heartbreaking stuff.

The event, formerly known as "elections" is happening in Russia - and of course, it's falsified, turned into a farce and has nothing to do with any actual choice by the people.

As the recent events were a bit...much, I invited a Latvian/American journalist Karlis Streips to help me analyze what's going on and why. Now, mr.
