Scroll on down from the screen, and click on “Show More”. Sometimes it shows time markers. Sometimes it just shows this:

“Day 107. Today, we analyse the latest news from Ukraine, discussing the implications made by remarks made by Putin on Thursday, in which the Russian leader drew a comparison between himself and Peter the Great.

Plus, we catch up with Dr Thomas Clausen - a policy advisor for a liberal think tank in Berlin - to discuss Angela Merkel’s first interview since leaving office, and the evolving German reaction to the crisis.

Contributors:
David Knowles (Host)
Dominic Nicholls (Defence & Security Editor)
Francis Dearnley (Assistant Comment Editor)

With thanks to Dr Thomas Clausen.”

If I were getting paid to sit and listen, I might do that for you. But it’s just background noise for my real job, which is not overly demanding on my attention, so I can cop what they’re saying, mostly. But my hands are too busy with a quill pen and an ink well, writing on parchment, to just drop everything.

But anyway, he’s comparing himself to Peter the Grate at 18:50.

When you have a podcast or video it’s common courtesy and proper to do just that.

I’ll google Putin’s speech and post it here.

Germany's been trying to destroy Europe for 100 years...or more. IMO naming East German “hausfrau” Merkel as Chancellor was their lasted move.

“Most people who read my stuff, appreciate that it is not a terrible investment of time.”

I like your opinion pieces. More, Please! And I like that you don’t use many big words, either. ;)

Merkel already helped Germany destroy Germany. I never thought I would feel sorry for Germans, but Merkel made that happen. She’s the second worst German Chancellor in history.
