“This show fills a Russia-sized hole in the CSIS lineup, and in the podcast space in general. There are not enough podcasts out there that regularly offer high quality analysis of Russia, which is a shame, but we finally have the return of Russian Roulette to the scene and I’m thankful for that....”Read full review »

“To truly diversify the field ask public school systems to diversify their world language course offerings. A language like Russian needs to be offered in middle school so that high school students can achieve some intermediate level of skill before college.

“Although the presenters often seem to be engaged in a game of 'who knows Russia best', with neither one listening to the other, they do cover interesting and very current topics.”Read full review »

“Absolutely the best think tank podcast out there as well as the best podcast on all things Russia. The diversity and range of topics is vast while still providing enough continuity to feel like each episode is part of a larger conversation. It is also, perhaps suprisingly for a podcast on Russia,...”Read full review »

“On one hand, I love this podcast. It's very informative; the hosts know about Russia's international situations in quite a bit of detail, and they get a lot of well-informed and insightful guests. I would give it five stars, except that it's so painful to listen to. The hosts are...”Read full review »

“I really like this podcast, and find the information very well presented. My primary gripe is that the female host is constantly interrupting the other host and guests! Sometimes she will correct them for no reason, interject to make an unrelated weird comment, etc. Stop talking over everyone.”

“The length of the podcasts permits in-depth analysis. The hosts are objective but are prepared to disagree politely with their guests. The hosts answer listener questions but not in every podcast. However, given the podcast length, I would like to see more questions answered, mor often.”
