Today, our guests are Tatyana Lazareva, a public figure and TV presenter, and Prikolena, a blogger and creator of humorous political videos. In this episode, we discuss how to respond to the hardest times with laughter, when laughter seems like the only remaining tool. We talk about the generation "who left for nowhere": their fears, hopes, and blind spots, and what projects they launched abroad successfully and what were dashed by reality.
