An Open Letter to the Bugle Podcast

Dear Chris, Andy and John (in order, from left to right, of the faces depicted on my mock Mt. Rushmore tattoo):

I am writing to express my dismay for your decision to name last week's episode Crimea River. At first, I thought: "Odessa good pun!" But then I started to think: "that was the worst joke Kiev-er made." Though I guess I Cyrillic can't blame you. I really think Ural gonna be sorry that you made light of Russian foreign policy, and I'm not sure it had Dnieper-pose. The whole situation seems quite grave, and I am worried about the potential Cossack-quences of any intervention. 

In any case, I love the show, and I wish Yalta best.
