À propos de cet audio

 Do you want to learn more about Russia, its history, its peoples, its culture, and its politics? Do you not want to read long, dense, historical books and would rather leave that for some other schmuck instead? If you do, then I have the perfect podcast for you. Beneath the Red Star is a Russian history podcast intended to be easy to understand, conversational in tone and only a wee little bit rambly. Come with me every-other week as we go through, in no particular order, the history of the worlds largest country, the home of Communism and Kalashnikov, the country beneath the red star: Russia.Kyle G Monde
