LAND OF THE FREE PODCAST WITH UKRAINSKA PRAVDA
Why Ukrainians Are Stronger Than Corruption — Deborah Fairlamb
“This is the most resourceful country in the world,” says Deborah Fairlamb who years ago quit her Wall Street job and moved to Ukraine, a country where she chose to raise her daughter. When Russia launched the full-scale invasion, Deborah, then as an American contractor, was forced to leave.
Now, she’s back, having launched Green Flag Ventures, which aims to invest in brilliant Ukrainian tech startups.
With American Joe Lindsley, host of the Land of the Free podcast, Deborah discusses the reality of corruption in Ukraine versus the USA, and she explains why Ukraine, especially in wartime, is a place of innovation and excellence. You can learn more about Deborah here:

DAILY UKRAINE REPORT ON CHICAGO’S WGN RADIO:
War Day 637: It's snowing peacefully in Kyiv. This is not a small detail
🇺🇦 600+ DAYS OF WAR REPORTING on Chicago's WGN Radio with host Bob Sirott and Joe Lindsley, the only American reporting in Ukraine every single day until victory 🎙️ from Wednesday 22 November 2023
For months, experts warned that all should be very afraid: Winter was coming and Russia would start pounding Ukrainian infrastructure as they did last year. But the cold weather is here, it's been two months since the Ukrainian sent the Storm Shadow missiles to break up the Russian Black Sea Fleet, and Russia has not been sending long-range missiles throughout Ukraine.
Ukraine is pushing for victory, just as so many voices in the West, refusing to say "victory," speak of an ever longer war. And two Ukrainians, Katya and Volodia, send their Thanksgiving greetings to the USA.
Please help us grow the channel by forwarding to five friends and asking them to follow us across all social media: links to Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Spotify, and Facebook are here. Joe Lindsley is the only American who has been reporting every single day from Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion.
Together with the Ukrainian Freedom News alliance of volunteers, they not only share the truth with the world but work to get supplies to friends at the front lines.
