Very enjoyable, melanyi talks great sense, with amazing pragmatism. I want to start mornings with you both, loved the debate xxx
Milanyi for president 💙💚
As a Romanian I do not need an explanation, we East Europeans already know why Ukrainians deserve all the cooperation in the world, they are our heroes, they save us every day. Slava Ukraini! #UkraineWillWin
I have always been a voting citizen and donated to the causes I care about, but not much beyond that. People like you, Paul, and Melaniya have propelled me to also write to my senators and representative (something I had never done) regarding the critical importance of Ukraine and its victory because we have to fight for Ukraine's cause from all sides available to us. Great talk, as always.
Slava Ukraine…Thanks for all your hard work to inform us on What’s happening in Ukraine and around the 🌎..💙💛💙
Дякую Поул за вашу позицію і підтримку! Для нас важливий кожен голос! ua🟦🟨
I think what really rallied support in Europe was Bucha. This was such an atrocity that everyone was instantly reminded of Auschwitz or Bełżec and couldn't just ignore it.
Дякую за вашу роботу
WE have to thank God for having such 2 amazing people
24:16 “uhh, there is morality in the universe” is gonna be my new catchphrase.😂 You two are incredible, somehow you’ve made me feel politically responsible with none of the yuck or hypocrisy of modern political discourse. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦, and thank you to Ukraine and Ukrainians for reminding us what it all means!
Thank you Paul for the support of Ukraine !!!👍👍👍
Thanks a lot for doing all this, guys. Thanks a lot for talking to Ukrainians about what`s going on and how we feel, thanks a lot for no longer perceiving Ukraine as an underdog in the region. Though I was surprised to see the economist publishing video regarding "brave ruzzians" TODAY, it`s kind of a sick move to make on the ANNIVERSARY of the full-scale invasion.
This show is really good. I love the energy and passion!
Another great conversation, I love it. Thanks to both of you. 💙💛
Thank u so much as i can😍Paul, u give us soooo much support!
@apmassaro3 @MelaniePodolyak Hi Paul and Melanie, thank you for a lively and excellent discussion regarding the awakening mindset of freedom and democracy in our times.
*** Has anyone considered organizing a week in which all free countries show support and recognize what Ukraine is doing for us? How cool would that be?!
Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦🕊️🌏🇺🇸
Even though I had a terrible relationship with my biological father he did teach me one thing that has still stuck as true.
“Countries like ruzzia, china, saudi arabia, iran - they don’t think like you do. They don’t think like us.”
As a kid I found this response to be really harsh, but as I got older I understood it better. They do not think like people who have experienced and appreciated freedom and safety within a country like the USA. They don’t think about what is going to be good for the world the same way kids are taught to think here.
My dream is to go back home to Kyiv. I hope lots of Ukrainians have the same dream.
Good luck! You are not alone!
🇺🇦🕊️🌞💙🌾🌾🌾
Your talks are always very interesting to listen to and they are very useful for the people living outside of Ukraine. I hope you and Melanie will keep doing these podcasts
Thanks for the help 🇺🇲🌠
As always, guys, thanks a lot for your work. I wish more and more Westerns watch and subscribe to this channel
You two brilliant young minds absolutely Rock!! What a pleasure to listen and contemplate! Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 Heroyam Slava 🇺🇦 ♥️
I'm so happy you have people on your channel that don't CZcams. I did reinstall Instagram to follow a field medic that ended up in Donbas, Donetsk, and Bukhmut. But don't have Twitter. It's just to much to keep track of and survive my life. LoL.
Great show as always
Thank you for the interview.
Thank you for this discussion, every word hit the truth. Thank you Paul for the huge support of Ukraine and deep understanding of the historical background and ruzzian aggression. Together to the victory!
Thank you for these podcasts. I think you compliment each other.
This was a great conversation, I always gain better perspective when hearing Ukrainian voices on Ukraine. Authoritarian leaders always misunderstand how strenuously free people will fight for their ideals and values. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
alwase wonderful to see you two!
Need to see puppy next time.
Wonderful conversation indeed 🫶
Thank you !!!!
Thanks folks! Slava Ukraine! 💙💛
Thank you for the wonderful conversation and for supporting Ukraine.
Paul, all of your guest are the best.
Once again, this is why you and Melanyia need to partner with educators all over the world…
It is sad if Melanyia thinks all of this is not relatable to the average person. Why is that? Hasn’t all of Europe been affected by the war? What about Africa, Asia, U.S.?! Why isn’t the education system devouring what is going on, stimulating young minds to look at the problems being created now. How will they feel otherwise when they are older to be compelled to deal with such issues because they have no other choice?
We should be teaching youth to look at immigration and border issues in depth to understand why do we have this problem, what can we do about it? What are our politicians doing about it? Same could be said for so many other topics of concern to youths of today…why did the invasion create a food crisis, energy crisis, and increase burdens on the economy. Young people can be very motivated and fearless in their commitment to their cause (as you are Paul), if they have and understanding of what they are facing, and they can do it with great compassion.
Let’s not make “influencing” our value. Let’s make it supporting and helping one another…there are enough problems needing attention, we shouldn’t be making more problems by fighting for power (influence) over others.
Maybe you should reach out to “YesTheory” followers to see if there is anyone interested in starting a coalition of young people to break into different groups thinking ahead to tackle such problems caused by the war, but also to be ahead of the game and be prepared to help put the pieces back together…so many opportunities to promote democracy and show the power of free thinking. “YesTheory” mottos are SEEK DISCOMFORT and LOVE OVER FEAR.
Sorry for my crazy rants, but your videos are very thought provoking to me. Again, just an old lady wishing the best for everyone.
Thank you for your time and effort.
Y'all bounce off each other statements with such ease great chemistry 💪🇺🇦🇺🇸💪🖕🖕🇷🇺
22:05 I just love this bark in a background foreshadowing Melania calling Ukraine an underdog in a minute
Цікаве різнобачення ситуації. Враховуючи різний бекґраунд обох, це цілком зрозуміло.
Good video, thanks!
So you see how 1 year of war changed President Zelenskys' face? With the emotion I've seen in him when describing war crimes. Especially the one speech to the UN in NYC he did via video. You could hear the hurt in his voice. No matter how much of a good actor you are, that was raw emotion. With his daily videos, you can tell it's wearing on his soul. It's wearing on everyone's soul. I feel we all have a permanent "What the F♧◇k", face. That is attached to a rope, tired to our souls that feel like a semi truck pulling on it every time Putin doubles down.
Listening! 🇵🇭🌻🇺🇦
Agree, the people, citizens insisted Ukraine be helped. I know I called all my representatives to plea for more help. Both parties, ended up voting for more aid. Ukraine saved the world. They got up us up, out of our brain freeze.
Americans and Canadians need to understand that the veterans we honor from WW1 and WW2 would be ashamed of us if we let Russia destroy Ukraine slowly but steadily over the next year.
Thank you for the video. Please continue this conversation! You are hitting the nail on the head and it must be propagated as much as possible to open the eyes and ears of all in the West! 🫶
Slava Ukraini! Heroyam Slava!
Nurses in the hospital always knew the emotional reasons we needed better staffing. When talking to administrators we had to convince them to care because it was in their financial interest. It is a muscle that nurses have had to develop to get anything done. Emotionally I responded immediately to the bombing of hospitals in Mariupol. For people who only care about how it affects them financially, Paul’s explanations are necessary. Hey, we’re saving money by giving all our old shit that would take more money to store than give away, and hey guess what, Ukrainians are doing all the heavy lifting for us. Then there are those who are actually moving in lock step with the Putin/Orban system of gradually eroding Democratic institutions and norms.
Thank you for your work and support of Ukraine
Good job and thanks for supporting Ukraine!
Продолжительность жизни украинского солдата на передовой в Артемовске составляет около четырех часов. Такими неутешительными для украинцев своим наблюдением поделился в интервью изданию Newsweek бывший морской пехотинец США Трой Оффенбекер, воюющий на стороне киевского режима.
«Много потерь. Средняя продолжительность жизни на передовой составляет около четырех часов», - заявил американский морпех.
Кроме того, Оффенбекер оценил обстановку в районе Артемовска, назвав происходящее мясорубкой. Он также добавил, что сомневается в возможностях ВСУ удержать город.
The past year has been both terrifying and inspiring, tragic and enraging, frustrating and hopeful, clarifying and motivating. In my lifetime I have never seen anything that was such a clear choice between good and evil.
100%
🇺🇦🫂🇺🇸🌎
Thank you so much Paul and Melaniya!
Thank you to everyone who reminds their government that we need to fully supply Ukraine against russia's genocidal invasion.
Let's try our best to make 2023, the year Ukraine fully wins against russia's genocidal war!
Victory, Freedom, Full Reparations, and all of Ukraine's Land for Ukraine! 💙💛
Paul, thank you for supporting Ukraine !!!!
💙💛
25:43 I have to respectfully disagree with Melaniya.
Canada was the first western country on December 2, 1991 to recognize Ukraine as a free democratic nation.
Since 1994 Canada has provided assistance to Ukraine expressed in the treaty E100720 ,"Agreement on Friendship and Cooperation Between Canada and Ukraine"
In 2014 Canada has condemned the invasion of Ukraine and has taken concrete steps against Russia.
Also note that the treaty between Ukraine and Canada was created under the Liberal Party lead by the Right Honourable Prime Minister Jean Chrétien and the response against the Russian invasion in 2014 was under a Conservative party lead by the Right Honourable Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Both Conservative and Liberal support Ukraine.
Canada does care!
🍁Together we stand. Together we will celebrate the defeat of the Russian Empire. 🇨🇦🍁
Edit: I removed the hyperlinks to be able to post.
Absolutely amazing conversation! Thank you both.
What has kissenger ever been right about? And still they draw his bloated old body out for his opinion on this war. Stop asking those who got it wrong for analysis.
Paul, you need to listen to Melanya, she's smarter than you LOL. Kidding aside, another really interesting conversation.
After seeing Ukrainian courage over the past year, I’d gladly buy a European vacation home in Ukraine post-war to help rebuild the nation.
!!!!!!!!!
Let's be fair, not everyone was for NS2 - I believe Poland was firmly against it from day one.
“I believe that it is against the interests of the EU as a whole, not to mention Poland and Ukraine,” said Tusk (EU President at the time), speaking to Polish broadcaster TVN24. “I have said many times, this is an unforgivable mistake - because it has very serious consequences - a mistake resulting from selfish German interests.”
Two thing that at have been good this year. Ukraine has found their voice and shown the world who they are. Second Ukraine has found freinds they never knew they had. Ukraine you are the west's heroes everyone of you. Victory will be yours. Glory to all the heros of Ukraine, your heart beats with ours.
💙💛💙💛💙💛💙💛
!
Thanks Paul. Because of you I still believe in USA. God bless USA. Слава Украини 💙💛
Почему американский флаг весит вниз? И что за тряпка жёлто синяя рядом?
Paul Massaro предатель своего народа ?
I would say this channel is a reflection of the American ideal of freedom of speech and is definitely evidence of someone who is not a traitor but a conscientious, involved citizen.
Melaniya is correct. Unless Russia is on "your" doorstep then you don't care. Yes we understand the situation for Ukraine but the average American can't empathize because they have the biggest military in the world protecting them.
Paul Massaro зарабатывает деньги на продажи своего народа !
I love your passion, Paul, and I share much of it, particularly in the shared stories and beliefs of Ukraine and America and our responsibility in this relationship, but you're losing me a bit with this absolutism of your blanket condemnation of the West and the somewhat deification of Ukraine. There is actually room and justification for nuance here. As one of many examples, the White House was not throwing in the white flag when offering Zelinsky a ride. The foremost concern was that he survive the night, and that meant getting him out of a city under siege so he could continue to govern elsewhere. Realpolitik is a thing, and though it hardly inflames our senses of righteousness and justice, it's never going away.
I wish to let you know that your well thought out comments do not go unnoticed. Thank you.
If you both marry, i’d highly appreciate an invitation.😘
Failing upwards. Isn't that the Peter principle?
I’m glad you took a stand on the Russian oligarchs and the Russian thug state.
World saved Ukraine, not the other way around. Ukraine is defending itself.
Both statements are true! But first Ukraine saved the civilized world by resisting at a very high cost while defending its people. Then after Ukrainians demonstrated their willingness and capacity to resist Nazi ruSSians did the civilized word start to help with weapons and ammunition
World helped Ukraine to defend itself, but at the same time if Ukraine hasn’t defended itself it would lead to ww3 eventually. So one action prevented others.
@@ukraine-war-update Exactly!
As ukraine fights Europe can still go about normal life: shopping, planning vacations and pretend that russia wouldn't bomb their cities flat if they had the chance. Russia calls all westerners pedophiles and people to be destroyed by the morally superior russians.
