Send us a textThe prodigal map returns! After three long years of increasingly frustrating updates that drove away casual players, Call of Duty Warzone has finally listened to its community by bringing back Verdansk – and it might just be the game's saving grace.Stepping back into the familiar terrain feels like rediscovering an old favorite book. The buildings, sightlines, and strategic positioning that made the original Warzone so captivating are all here, but with thoughtful improvements that address previous shortcomings. The addition of natural cover throughout previously exposed areas, swimmable water bodies, and a refined loot system create a more balanced experience without sacrificing what made Verdansk special in the first place.For casual players who might only get a few hours of gameplay each week, this update represents a significant win. The return of map knowledge as a competitive advantage means that even if you can't dedicate eight hours daily to mastering movement mechanics, you can still leverage your familiarity with the environment to outsmart opponents. The one-shot headshot capability of sniper rifles has returned, vehicles can once again be countered effectively with explosives, and the original Gulag provides a balanced 1v1 environment that feels fair for both competitors.Perhaps most importantly, this update strikes the right balance between nostalgia and innovation. Rather than simply repackaging old content, Activision has carefully integrated modern improvements while maintaining the core experience that made Warzone a phenomenon in the first place. The floating loot visualization, progressive ground loot quality throughout match phases, and subtle terrain adjustments all enhance gameplay without fundamentally changing what worked.If you've been away from Warzone due to frustration with previous updates, now might be the perfect time to drop back in. The learning curve is significantly reduced for returning players, and the more balanced gameplay creates opportunities for both tactical play and high-octane action. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a curious newcomer, Verdansk's return offers the most accessible and enjoyable Warzone experience in years.Support the show

Gulag Fiction: Labour Camp Literature from Stalin to Putin (Bloombury, 2024) is a unique exploration of Russian prose fiction about the Soviet labour camp system since the Stalin era compares representations of identity, ethics and memory across the corpus. The Soviet labour camp system, or Gulag, was a highly complex network of different types of penal institutions, scattered across the vast Soviet territory and affecting millions of Soviet citizens directly and indirectly. As Gulag Fiction shows, its legacies remain palpable today, though survivors of the camps are now increasingly scarce, and successive Soviet and post-Soviet leaders have been reluctant to authorise a full working through of the Gulag past. This is the first book to compare Soviet, samizdat and post-Soviet literary prose about the Gulag as penal system, carceral experience and traumatic memory. Polly Jones analyses prose texts from across the 20th and 21st centuries through the prism of key themes in contemporary Soviet historiography and Holocaust literature scholarship: selfhood and survival; perpetration and responsibility; memory and post-memory.

This episode begins with Jemma trying to find things to cheer Marina up with. Funnily enough, learning that Gove is getting a peerage doesn't do it, but the song Dame Andrea Jenkins has chosen to promote her bid to be Mayor nearly does. Then we're off to Scunthorpe where Labour have been trying to ensure that the furnaces don't go out for once and for all on British Steel. China have decided they aren't interested in it anymore, which is a huge reason to be furious with Boris Johnson (another one) because he sold it to them. With thousands of jobs at stake, Marina and Jemma wonder what might or might not happen. Then to the States, where Trump has been sitting down with a kindred spirit, the President of El Salvador, Bukele who is he paying to take people he wishes to deport and to house them in his Gulag like prisons. Hear the incredible moment Trump was caught on mic saying he would like him to take 'homegrowns' too. If only that was the only grim piece of news to come out of his adminstration but sadly......cut to, the SAVE act. Marina gives the lowdown on a piece of legislation which is almost akin to Handmaids Tale and yet might result in a surprising plot twist. Lots of underrated tweets and a wonderful pudding finish off the ep.Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcastPatreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcastYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawlTwitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetrawl.bsky.socialCreated and Produced by Jemma Forte & Marina PurkissEdited by Max Carrey
John gives an update of the continued fight to free Kilmar Abrego Garcia from the gulag in El Salvador and the latest stupidity from RFK Jr. who spoke of autistic children as humans unable to function and contribute to society, vowing to find the environmental causes behind a pandemic of autism he believes is being downplayed by corporate interests. Then, the amazing Bob Cesca pops in for a chat about renditioning people to El Salvador, the consequences of tariffs, and the growing anger among the red hats over Trump's mishigas. Next, Desimber Rose and Dillon Cruz AKA The God Squad return to discuss fake Christians, Christian Nationalists, and the ungodliness of the Trump Administration. Then lastly, John welcomes back legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson to joke with the Evil Army of the Night about Kilamr Abrego Garcia, the Supreme Court, and Trump's upcoming legal troubles.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Edition No130 | 17-04-2025 - A US judge finds probable cause to hold Trump officials in contempt over deportations to El Salvador. Trump's use of the alien act deportations power to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members without due process threatens to cause a head-on clash between the executive branch of government and the judiciary. This is a fight that Trump has likely engineered, and is potentially relishing, as his seemingly unstoppable drive to increase his personal power at the expense of other institutions of state continues at a furious pace and apparently unchecked.For context, this is a definition from the US Holocaust Museum: "What distinguishes a concentration camp from a prison (in the modern sense) is that it functions outside of a judicial system. The prisoners are not indicted or convicted of any crime by judicial process."----------Links: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/16/trump-deportation-ruling-venezuelanhttps://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/kilmar-abrego-garcia-el-salvador-hollen-b2734634.html https://news.sky.com/story/white-house-rages-at-appalling-attempt-to-return-wrongly-deported-man-from-el-salvador-13350102https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-homegrowns-el-salvador-deport-b2733844.htmlhttps://www.aclu.org/news/national-security/trumps-expanded-domestic-military-use-should-worry-us-all ----------Easter Pysanky: Silicon Curtain - https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/easter-pysanky-silicon-curtainCar for Ukraine has joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this special Easter season.

During the visit of the president of El Salvador to the US this week, President Trump expressed a desire to deport not only illegal aliens, but also American citizens to El Salvador's notorious prison. Is this Guantanamo "extraordinary rendition" on steroids? Also today, Trump's team is divided on Iran: half want to talk, the other half want war. Who will win?

The Soviet punitive system was the heir of literally hundreds of years of secret police interrogation. For centuries, the Czar’s secret police had tortured, refined, and perfected the art of interrogation – all of it based on practice – not theory. That is why American researchers were so amazed at the Soviet interrogation success rate.… Continue reading Gulag: A history of Soviet Torture

Mark always brings the thrills, and this conversation did not disappoint! Mark describes his story as an "homage to Cold War thrillers." We talked about people who are raised to believe in the USSR first, then Russia, and then their own country – what happens when they become disillusioned? Will personal impacts shift their thinking? Does all of humanity have a deep desire for freedom? We discussed the moral gray area and whether a country is ever justified in crossing those lines -- aren't some things truly good or evil? When ideology -- any ideology -- is deeply rooted, is there any hope of personal growth? Of a flexible mindset? What does that fervor mean for the future of Ukraine or other former Soviet Bloc countries - endless conflict? The themes in this story are all across today's headlines … and wait until you hear where he gets some of those awesome spy details!You can find more of your favorite bestselling authors at BOOKSTORM Podcast!

Starautor Twardoch entführt in seinem aktuellen Roman nach Sibirien, in die Vergangenheit, ins Gulag.
In this episode, Alex talks about the tragic collision at Reagan National Airport in DC. He argues that a network/system of failures led to this tragedy and it is clear that there isn't one thing to point the blame on. However, Trump has blamed DEI and the Biden Administration; Alex thinks the right has its own form of DEI. Next, Alex gives some analysis surrounding the confirmation hearings of RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Kash Patel. He hopes that one of these three will not be confirmed and gets into why each one of them has a uniquely bad qualifications. Finally, it looks like the Trump Administration has found a place to send the deported immigrants. Trump plans to use a holding facility in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, to put up to 30,000 criminal migrants in until they can be sent to another country. It doesn't take much creativity to think about how this “out of sight, out of mind” policy could turn into a legal black hole and an humanitarian crisis.

Despite President Trumps Blanket pardon of nearly all patriots persecuted over January 6th by a weaponized Dept. of Justice, some of those prisoners still remain in the D.C. jail. It is believed Judge Carl Nichols is responsible for the hold up. It is an outrage that prisoners held across the country can be released, travel to D.C. in support of those being held in what's been dubbed "The D.C. Gulag," and arrive by for the hostages in D.C. have been released. We talk to the J6ers just released and explain what needs to happen to get the others out. Also, more proof Washington is a woke mess. A left wing Episcopal Bishop lectures President Trump at a national prayer service over gays, lesbians and illegals. Dr. Ben Carson responds to the needless attack insisting Rev. Mariann Budde, "missed an opportunity for unity." Plus the defense of Elon Musk and the ridiculous claim that he offered a salute to Hitler. If that's true, Obama, Clinton, Kamala and AOC are guilty of this too. I have proof!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textIn July 1969, the United States beat the Soviet Union in the decades long Space Race, taking one giant leap onto the surface of the moon. Neil Armstrong's steps would go down in history as one of mankind's greatest achievements. But there are those who question whether it happened at all. Was our technology really up to the task? Or were we fighting a losing battle against the Soviets, desperate to hold on to our reputation? We'll explore the history of the Space Race and the two brains behind it all - Wernher Von Braun and Sergei Korolev. One a former major in the SS and the other a former prisoner of the Gulag. Both would use their knowledge of rocket science to advance space travel in ways we'd never before seen. We'll dig into conspiracy theories started by technical writer Bill Kaysing, and examine photos from the landing that people love to pick apart. In the end, we'll tell you where we each land. Strap in for a fun episode uncovering one of America's greatest conspiracy theories. Happy Haunting! Get in touch!

The media's dying gasp for relevance unravels as a third major automaker gives a 7-figure donation to Trump's inauguration fund. The incessant news about Trump representing a threat to democracy didn't move the needle apparently, as big business bows before the new president with checkbooks open. And a chilling story of a J6er just released from the Gulag but hunted down and rearrested in what clearly is a case of government weaponization. Don't miss the end of this hour as we play the words Joe Scarborough would most like to take back.

Natan Sharansky began life as Anatoly Shcharansky. He was a dissident and refusenik in the Soviet Union. For nine years, he was a prisoner in the Gulag. He then made his life in Israel: as a writer, a politician, a human-rights activist, and so on. With Jay, he talks about the war in which Israel is engulfed. And the Ukraine war. And the consequences of all this for the world. He also talks about the prisoner swap between the West and Russia last summer. He himself was part of such a swap, in 1986. A conversation with Natan Sharansky is always a privilege.

Eric and Eliot welcome back Anne Applebaum, Pultizer and Duff Cooper Prize Winning author of Gulag and Red Famine and currently staff writer with The Atlantic and senior fellow at the Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies. They discuss Anne's new book Autocracy Inc: The Dictators who Want to Run the World. They examine the threat that autocratic regimes represent to their own citizens at home and to liberal democracy abroad, the West's slowness to recognize the threat that the authoritarians represent, the excessive optimism that (after the end of the Cold War and with the advent of globalization) liberal democratic ideals would triumph without recognizing the danger that authoritarian, illiberal ideas might flow into democracies, whether or not the authoritarians think they are winning and how they measure success, Russia's role in prompting much of the authoritarian offensive and the role of western institutions in facilitating the emergence of Russia as a personalist, authoritarian mafia state, the weaknesses of the authoritarians and how the western democracies might go on the offensive against the political warfare being waged daily by the authoritarians against the democracies, and the effort to obliterate truth and promote hopelessness and cynicism in citizens in democracies and setting them against one another. Autocracy, Inc.: The Dictators Who Want to Run the World: https://a.co/d/ifaCL3E Shield of the Republic is a Bulwark podcast co-sponsored by the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.
