Ukraine Military History

Samuel Cook, Rob Lee, Dmytro Putiata

Booking Overview

This is an interview-led military analysis and history show focused on the war in Ukraine, featuring co-host analysis alongside frontline journalists, military personnel, veterans, and defense experts with direct operational experience. Agencies could credibly pitch Ukraine war correspondents, military historians, defense analysts, commanders, veterans, and specialists in drones, force structure, or modern warfare; booking difficulty is high because guests generally need firsthand battlefield experience or substantial subject-matter authority.
