Poll: Article or Podcast on the Man They Call "Putin's Brain"?

Mar 21, 2023

I haven’t posted as many articles in recent weeks because I’ve been doing a lot of research on Alexander Dugin, the man they call “Putin’s brain”. While some dispute how influential he is, my contacts in Russia suggest he does, in fact, have significant influence over how Vladimir Putin sees the world.

I am at a point where I am ready to publish either a long article about this or record an audio podcast. What would you prefer?

Ideally, Konstantin, why not do both? If you can be so persuaded, perhaps do the podcast first?

If it’s a serious subject, article. Can be read at your own pace. Can refer back to sections you need to more easily. Can be partially read and picked back up more easily. Can be read anywhere without disturbing anyone else. Can be forwarded to people who are still not comfortable with podcasts and other internet content. Of course, most of those people are over 50, who might not be so important to influence (not saying that snarkily - it’s just that more people who actually understand the danger of a man like Putin are over 50 anyway. It’s younger people who didn’t receive the same education in school who need to understand the truth.). I guess I think it depends on who your primary audience is.
