Reminder for Zoom Office Hours and Upcoming Events

Happy Monday! Just a reminder about our office hours this week and other events coming up:

Thursday, March 9, 12-1 p.m. EST: Zoom Office Hours

I hope you can join Zoom Office Hours this week — we have lots to discuss! Zoom link will be sent to paid subscribers at 9 a.m EST.

Tuesday, March 14, 4-5 p.m.: Guest Speaker Seth Jones

We’ll be discussing Valery Gerasimov and the Gerasimov Doctrine with Seth Jones, author of Three Dangerous Men: Russia, China, Iran and the Rise of Irregular Warfare. Zoom link will be sent to paid subscribers at noon. A recording of the discussion will be posted on Wednesday morning.

Sunday, March 26, Time TBA: Wine & Fries Zoom Happy Hour with

Peter Strzok

Yes, I know it’s March Madness! Join me and Pete in between games that day to have a drink, talk about basketball (college basketball is one sport I actually watch…find out why!), and generally engage in hijinks and hilarity. Zoom link will be sent that afternoon to Wine & Fries subscribers.

NEW! April Guest Speaker: Russian Media Monitor Julia Davis

I’m so excited that Julia Davis will be speaking to the class in April and offering us a window into Russian state TV. You won’t want to miss this: Julia has translated clips from popular Russian TV shows (which are really bizarre) showing how they present the war in Ukraine, leaders in the U.S., and their favorite useful idiots from Fox News.
