Ep.166 - Russia, Ukraine & Voice Notes
On Ep.166 of WG: Two pieces relating to the Russo-Ukraine conflict, Rastafarian women & the prominence of Voice Notes.
In a week where:
- Russia invade Ukraine.
- Happy Women's History Month.
- Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties to win the Carabao Cup.
- House of Lords vote to remove Clause 9 of Nationality & Borders Bill.
- British MPs are to receive a 2.7% increase in pay, going from £81,932 to £84,144.
In Politics: (6:39) We talk about one of the biggest elephants in the history of rooms, the Russian invasion of Ukraine and how Putin has, in some ways, already lost.
In Climate: (16:42) Something I have been starting to think about constantly is the impact a story has on the climate. And as you can imagine, I've been thinking about how this Russian invasion is affecting the state of global climate.
In Life: (30:40) Something I have been looking up recently is Rastafarianism. And something that constantly gets overlooked is the women in the religion/movement. Let's rectify that.
Lastly, in Society: (49:01) I like the occasional Voice Note/Message, maybe you do too. And because of that, I find fewer reasons to phone somebody up. So are VM's killing the good 'ol phone call?
