Thank you to all those who have followed the podcast over the last several months. This has been an amazing jouney. I never would have expected the goernment of Peter Magyar and TISZA to be as transparent as they have been, hosting almost daily a YouTube livestream featuring members of the Cabinet answering questions from media outlets across the political spectrum. This was something that under former PM Orban only happened rarely, in a closed setting, oftentimes with the vibe of a propaganda press conference only to make him look good and Brussels look evil.
There are many many challenges ahead, but now we have hope.

Peter Magyar Defeated Orban, Now What?
In this episode we discuss how Hungary got to a point where democracy felt functionally meaningless. As someone who never knew a government before Orban, this topic is very close to me. We discuss the potential future under Peter Magyar and TISZA, the obstacles that still exist and the various mechanisms that kept Fidesz going through the networks of the so-called "mafia state".

Music in the USSR
To many in the United States, the msuic of the Soviet Union can be summed up as the Red Army Choir, maybe the Cossack Choir and Katyusha. Many in Gen Z get their first taste of the Soviet musical world via war games like World of Tanks, where some of these tracks serve as background music. In reality, the music scene of the USSR was varied and complex, offering a world of stories to tell just the same as the West. In this episode we give a very high level overview of the musical situation in the country and broader Warsaw Pact including East Germany.
