As you can guess, this episode is all about Russia invading Ukraine and the potential consequences of our new reality.

After a brief recap of the events, we end up discussing the risks to Putin, his potential strategies, whether the US and NATO countries should provide more help, then we get into an argument Luc had considered about the consequences of the United States deciding to kick Russia off teh SWIFT network.

This includes a conversation about the potential monetary competition between Russia and China on one side and Western Europe and the United States on the other. Then we discuss includes how Bitcoin fits into this monetary competition as well.

We finish the episode out with a discussion about three things Nate thinks you should be concerned about and a few different ways you can prepare for them.

Note: There was a problem with the audio recording and while Nate did what he could to improve it, it's still far from his standards. But Nate and Luc thought this episode was too important not to release it.
