Ukraine is discussed through war, military technology, and U.S. support

PBD Podcast discussed Ukraine’s claim that 250 Russian soldiers surrendered, alongside Putin ordering Russian troops to abandon established wartime standards.[1]

Office Hours with Prop G focused on Timothy Snyder’s argument that cutting aid to Ukraine and starting the Iran war have affected Ukraine’s fight against Russia.[2][3]

How I Invest with David Weisburd used Ukraine to discuss modern and asymmetric warfare, with Ethan Brady saying it demonstrates both sustained resistance and military-technology asymmetry.[4]

Moonshots with Peter Diamandis framed the Russia-Ukraine war as an escalating drone conflict, with Salim Ismail describing 10 million drones being made by each side this year.[5]

Other shows mentioned Ukraine more briefly: PBD connected Russia-Ukraine drones to future weapons, while The Diary Of A CEO cited Ukraine among geopolitical events used in prediction discussions.[6][7]
