Greetings, Comrades! This is our first episode in the Russian Revolution series, which we have dubbed "Red Dawn" as we enjoy bad cinematography. The episode itself is the story of Lenin's childhood, as we decided to split up his biography in two parts. I hope we can match Mike Duncan in quality and do this properly. As it's one of the murkiest things in Soviet history, to be honest. Anyways, enjoy! <p>Support this show <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder">http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder</a>.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
