2.46 National Peculiarities of Russian Freemasons theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-46... From SVO Masonic lodges in Rostov to pawnshops charging 77% interest on wedding rings, I dissect the apocalyptic delusions, burning logistics, and final collapse of the Syndicate State. (YT version incoming)
Deus Vult! t.me/Love_Russia_... If there are any actual lodge members here, have a laugh.
2.45 The Wildberries Extinction Event theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-45... As Ukraine’s drone campaign liquidates Russia’s Amazon and frontlines run out of gas, the Kremlin’s vranyo engine collapses into AI-generated lies, friendly fire, and pure Z-patriot panic.
It always feels amazing to see that you've really helped some very real, awesome people. Just got this thank you message for the last campaign. If you want to be awesome too, here's the current campaign! And it earns you a special Eastern Border podcast badge too! car4ukraine.com/campaigns/su...
2.43 …but it sometimes rhymes theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-43... Imperial hubris mirrors 1904 as drone strikes dismantle Russia's refineries, forcing a 25k-ton daily fuel deficit, hyper-inflation debt traps, digital rationing, and total elite structural rot.
IOC is now disliked by absolutely everyone. Z vatniks are not happy either. Personally, I find this hilarious.
2.42 The Pantyhose Filter theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-42... The imperial well runs dry. We track the 69-hour fuel queues, Cossack vigilantes hunting Crimeans, military MPs getting fragged, and the terminal August 2026 convergence. Donate to Car4Ukraine: car4ukraine.com/campaigns/su...
2.41 All Hail Hypnotoad theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-41... youtu.be/W5qS9-ZTZ_w Glory to Hypnotoad. Donate to Ukraine: car4ukraine.com/campaigns/su...
2.40 Fraud Watch theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-40... Fuel panic hits Moscow, small aviation collapses, and Z-patriots lose their minds on live video. An unfiltered autopsy of an empire running on empty. Oh, and I'm quoting Moscow mayor Sobyanin in my thumbnail. (After his acc was hacked.)
2.39 Vranyo for Dummies The Russian imperial simulation hits physical reality at terminal velocity. An unfiltered Gonzo audit of empty air defense grids, $95B deficits, and paid crowds. theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-39... Donate to Ukraine: car4ukraine.com/campaigns/su...
2.38 Existential Fanfiction theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-38... Happy Anniversary to The Eastern Border! Rot, corruption and Vladimir Solovyov writes a fanfic where he gives himself superpowers. Also, and intro greeting in (very broken) Japanese. Check out all our anniversary collabs too!
2.37 The Simulated Empire theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-37... Inside Russia’s 2026 simulation: Pink war trucks, 1,000km security voids, and an entire army command leaked on Telegram. Welcome to the 13th-century fiefdom.
2.36 This was supposed to be SPIEF 2 theeasternborder.lv/podcast/226-... French jets intercepting drones over Latvia, systemic collapse at SPIEF 2026, rationing in occupied Crimea, and frontline Z-patriots mutinying. The unvarnished reality of a dying empire. YouTube is uploaded. No sleep for 36h
So, I've caught up. Kind of. 2.35 SPIEF 2026: We can. But Why? youtu.be/GacH4k3S0_g?... The elite feast at SPIEF 2026 while Crimea starves for fuel and the Oreshnik hits a shed. We dissect the Russian mafia state's embrace of a 20-year infinite war. Happiness is mandatory.
The Eastern Border x Decoding Trolls Car4Ukraine.com Fundraising Livestream Tomorrow! (You don't need a substack acc to watch, and it'll also go up as an episode after.) open.substack.com/live-stream/...
From Avito: 'Security guard for a forest hospital in SMO', pay from 230,000 rub/month. Good vacancy, no deceit whatsoever.
Russian tactical genius in Crimea: Mobile air-defense trucks can't hunt the Ukrainian drones blowing up fuel depots... because they have no gas to drive. The frontline is aggressively begging the gov for fuel to do their jobs. Pure Ouroboros. 🎪🇺🇦
2.34 The Clone Trap is Burning theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-34... Crimean gas ration cards, burning refineries, and oligarchs buying heavy weapons for the post-Putin civil war. We break down the systematic economic and social collapse of the Russian state. As usual.
2.33 Eastern Border Special: Illusionary Calories theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-33... In this special episode of The Eastern Border, Evita and I perform a deep-dive regulatory and macroeconomic audit on the Russian import-substitution food economy. YouTube version at 3.30AM tonight.
2.32 Orthodox Armoured Polyethylene theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-32... Corporate PMCs, AI drone slaughters, and a collapsing housing market. I dissect Russia's rapid descent into a neo-feudal wasteland fueled by institutionalized grift. YouTube version uploading. Also, 2.31 is out too.
Disciplinary action in the Russian army for refusing to pay a bribe to the commander
2.30 The Empire Bleeds, Part 1 theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-30... In Part 1 of our massive 2.30 Double-Feature, we aren't looking at the frontlines—we are looking at the multi-organ failure of the Russian state. Terminal gangrene has set in. (YouTube version incoming too!)
Meet David, a jazz musician from Cincinnati, Ohio. He'll give you the USA view of our Eastern Border.
Shame, we have to take Loki out for a walk and now the poor boy will piss on the floor. Yep. It takes THIS many alarms to go from 'scary' to 'honey, a new, mildly annoying alarm clock' What can I say, donate to Car4Ukraine.com I want to sleep, lol.
2.29 Overdosing on Vranyo youtu.be/ttwDtp4skuc The Russian elite promises Donbas by autumn, but the reality is a 12-trillion ruble deficit, a drone wall, overflowing morgues, and a ban on 10th-grade physics. We audit the terminal copium overdose. Also on all podcast apps.
Good morning. Tonight was shit. Got this for the THIRD time this month. TFW NATO jets fly over my house and the 'all clear' happens many hours later.
2.28 Black Overlord theeasternborder.lv/podcast/2-28... The Russian Federation has officially hit terminal velocity, and the Alpha-male imperial dream has been replaced by a desperate, hallucinating Cargo Cult. YouTube version uploading, this one has visuals.
