TO DO IN UKRAINE, AS WELL.
NOW PARENTING THROUGH A WAR.
THROUGH THAT LENS, TELL ME
WHAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW AND
WHAT YOU ANTICIPATE IN THE DAYS
AHEAD.
>> WELL, LET'S BEGIN WITH THE
MILL TAFR
MILITARY SITUATION.
WE ARE ATTACKED BY A FAR
SUPERIOR POWER IN TERMS OF
HARDWARE AND SOLDIERS.
I'M NOT WORRIED.
UKRAINE IS LIKE A SPRING.
HARDLY PUSH.
BUT WHAT'S MORE WORRYING IS THE
HUMANITARIAN SITUATION.
WE ARE WITNESSING INTENTIONAL
DAMAGE, INTENSAL VIOLENCE
AGAINST UKRAINE CIVILIANS.
A HORRIFYING FIGURE IS RELEASED.
OVER 2,000 UKRAINIAN CIVILIANS
INCLUDING UP TO 100 CHILDREN
HAVE BEEN KILLED IN THE LAST 6
DAYS.
CIVILIANS. TALKING ONLY ABOUT CIVILIANS.
TALKING ONLY ABOUT CIVILIANS.
THAT'S EXCLUDEING THE PEOPLE IN
MARIUPOL.
RUSSIA LEVELED IT TO THE GROUND.
THEY ARE SHOOTING AT CHURCHES
AND YESTERDAY TO ME LIKE THE
MOST SHOCKING THING HAPPENED YESTERDAY BECAUSE PRESIDENT
YESTERDAY BECAUSE PRESIDENT
PUTIN CLAIMS THAT HE'S
DE-NAZI-FYING UKRAINE.
SHOOTING AT THE HOLOCAUST
MEMORIAL IS PROBABLY DIFFICULT
FOR THE RUSSIANS TO COMPREHEND.
IT'S JUST BEEN OPENED, THE PLACE
WHERE THE NAZIS, THE REAL NAZIS
HAVE EXECUTED OVER 30,000 JEWS
AND RUSSIA IS SHOOTING AT
CHURCHES.
THAT SITUATION IS REALLY GRIM.
AND YOU KNOW, THAT'S MORE
DIFFICULT TO PROCESS THAN THE
MILITARY SITUATION.
WE'LL KICK HIM OUT SOONER OR
LATER BUT IT IS THE LOSS OF LIFE
THAT'S A WORRYING PART.
>> WHAT IS IT THAT YOU NEED
THAT'S STILL ON THE TABLE?
I THINK YOU HEARD FROM THE
AMERICAN PRESIDENT THAT CLOSING
THE AIR SPACE IN HIS VIEW SETS
UP CONDITIONS FOR WORLD WAR III.
I WONDER YOUR REACTION TO THAT,
IF YOU AGREE WITH THAT.
SHORT OF THAT, WHAT YOU NEED.
>> YEAH.
WE DEFINITELY NEED AIRSPACE
CLOSED ONE WAY OR DID OTHER.
MY OFFICIAL REACTION IS A FULLY
AGREE DEALING WITH A MENTALLY
UNSTABLE PERSON POTENTIALLY
HOLING HIS FINGER ON THE RED
NUKE
NUCLEAR WEAPON.
IT MIGHT NOT BE THE BEST IDEA
BUT RUSSIA IS BRUTALIZING THE
WASH FARE FOR NOW.
ANNEXING CRIMEA THEY TOOK THE
SOLDIERS AND SAID THEY ARE
LITTLE GREEN MEN SO MAYBE THERE
ARE WAYS AROUND INTERFERING
DIRECTLY SO WHAT NEEDS TO BE
DECIDED BEHIND CLOSED DOORS IS
NOT FOR THE PUBLIC TO DISCUSS
WHY WHAT UKRAINE NEEDS THOUGH
OBVIOUSLY IS WEAPONS AND
ECONOMIC SUPPORT AND TWO CERTAIN
THINGS THAT I WOULD APPEAL TO
THE WEST TO DO URGENTLY.
FIRST I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE
PSYCHOLOGICAL STATE OF THE
CIVILIANS, ESPECIALLY WOMEN AND
CHILDREN.
EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS.
I'LL GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.
FOR EXAMPLE, A FRIEND OF MINE
WHO'S IN CHARGE OF ONE OF THE
HUMANITARIAN CENTERS.
SHE'S BREAKING DOWN.
SHE HAS PTSD.
SHE IS A FAN OF SLIT KNOT.
IF THERE'S A MESSAGE TO THE
PEOPLE OF UKRAINE IT WOULD MAKE
A DIFFERENCE.
WHY DON'T WE GET LIKE WESTERN
CELEBRITIES THAT RECORD THOSE
MESSAGES, #STAND WITH UKRAINE
AND WE'LL PROVIDE YOU WITH
NUMBERS OF INDIVIDUAL CIVILIANS.
WHY NOT GIVE THEM A CALL AND
SUPPORT THEM?
IT'S A -- SAME TIME IT MIGHT
SAVE SOMEBODY'S LIFE.
SECOND THING I WOULD ASK
EVERYONE IN THE WEST TO DO WOULD
BE TO APPEAL TO THE BUSINESSES
TO GET OUT OF RUSSIA AS QUICKLY
AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE EVERY STAND
THAT'S BEING INVESTED OR EARNED
IN RUSSIA ON RUSSIAN TERRITORY
IS IN FACT PAYING FOR THE DEATH
OF UKRAINIAN CHILDREN AND THAT
APPLIES TO EVERYONE.
I SAW MESSAGES TODAY SAYING WE
WON'T GET OUT OF RUSSIA.
GUYS, MONEY IS NOT AS IMPORTANT
AS PEOPLE'S LIVES AND BEHIND --
LOOK.
THOUSANDS OF DEAD IS A
STATISTIC.
BEHIND EACH ONE OF THOSE DEATHS
IS SOMEBODY'S LIFE AND FAMILY
AND TRAGEDY.
AND GOD FORBID YOU HAVE DO LIVE
THROUGH THAT.
IF YOU COULD HELP US WITH THAT
WE WOULD REALLY, REALLY
APPRECIATE IT.
THIRDLY, LOOK.
WE NEED THE APPEALS TO THE
HUMANITARIAN CORRIDORS.
WE GOT A CALL FROM A FUND
CALLED -- IN UKRAINE BELONGING
TO THE RICHEST GUY IN UKRAINE
AND TRYING AND FIGHTING HARD FOR
TWO DAYS TO CREATE A
HUMANITARIAN CORRIDOR OUT OF
TOWN AND 600 PEOPLE INCLUDING 2
PEOPLE CLOSE TO ME GOT OUT WITH
A CORRIDOR AND LIKE NO
DOCUMENTS.
LIKE PLUS 2 OUTSIDE IN UNDERWARE
AND T-SHIRTS.
BUT THERE'S 1,500 PEOPLE STILL
STUCK THERE AND NEED THE
CORRIDORS ASAP.
BECAUSE LOOK.
ANY MILITARY CONFLICT WILL END.
AND PEOPLE'S LIVES SHOULD NOT BE
LOST BECAUSE IT DRAGS ON LONGER
THAN IT SHOULD.
>> HOW LONG ARE YOU PREPARED TO
STAY THERE WITH YOUR FAMILY AND
FIGHT?
>> WE DEFINITELY PREPARED TO
FIGHT.
I SAID IT LAST TIME.
LOOK.
EVERY TIME ONCE IN YOUR LIFETIME
FACED WITH A SITUATION TO DECIDE
TWO THINGS.
WHO IS THE PERSON LOOKING AT YOU
FROM THE MIRROR?
REAL OR HYPOCRITICAL AND FAKE.
THAT'S THE FIRST ANSWER YOU NEED
TO GET.
THE SECOND DECISION TO MAKE IS,
LOOK, IF SOMEBODY WISHES YOU
DEATH IN EFFECT, THAT'S
HAPPENING IN UKRAINE, DO YOU
KEEP RUNNING?
BECAUSE WE CAN MOVE TO BULGARIA
AND POLAND BUT I SAY DOESN'T
MATTER.
WE'RE GOING TO BE FACED WITH THE
SAME SITUATION IN TWO OR THREE'S
TIME.
THERE'S NO PRIDE IN RUNNING.
LOOK.
I'LL GIVE YOU A POSITIVE.
I'VE READ THE COMMENTS AFTER THE
LAST SHOW AND I KNOW PEOPLE WANT
SOMETHING POSITIVE SO TWO
STORIES.
ONE REALLY TRAGIC AND SHOWS YOU
WHAT IT IS LIKE AND THE OH IS
REALLY FUNNY.
I GOT A CALL FROM THE VOLUNTEERS
AND THAT SITUATION IS RESOLVED.
TWINS JUST GOT ORPHANED
YESTERDAY.
MOM AND DAD BOTH KILLED
YESTERDAY BY RUSSIAN BOMBS.
IMAGINE THAT SITUATION.
THAT'S WHAT I LOVE UKRAINE FOR.
NOBODY'S LEFT AND SAID RED CROSS
DEAL WITH IT.
PEOPLE JUST STARTED TO SHARE THE
MESSAGE SAYING HERE'S THE
NUMBER.
IS ANYONE WILLING TO TAKE TWO
KIDS IN?
NOT TEMPORARILY.
ARE YOU READY TO BECOME PARENTS?
BY GOD I NEARLY CALLED.
MY WIFE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE
KILLED ME.
I HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS AND TWO
FAMILIES SHELTERING WITH US.
THAT'S A SENSE OF WHAT IT IS
LIKE.
TWO DAYS AGO PEOPLE IN THE
VILLAGE, SOME GYPSIES STOLE A
TANK FROM THE RUSSIANS.
ONE OF THE MOST ADVANCED RUSSIAN
TANKS STOLEN BY JUST GYPSIES
CAMPING OUT IN THE FIELD.
I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT BUT THERE'S
A VIDEO AND VERIFIED AND THAT
KIND -- THOSE KIND OF STORIES
KEEP HAPPENING.
IT GIVES YOU HOPE AND A LESSON I
HAVE LEARNED FROM A WEEK OF THIS
ORDEAL SO FAR IS IF YOU TRY TO
GET RID OF SADNESS, DEPRESSION,
DESPERATION, WHATEVER, YOU KNOW,
IT IS JUST AN EXPERIENCE.
HOPEFULLY WE'RE GOING TO LEARN
FROM IT AND BE BETTER FOR IT.
IF YOU ADOPT THAT ATTITUDE
THERE'S NO NEED TO RUN.
IT WILL END WELL.
YOU JUST NEED TO KNOW IT.
>> WHAT IS -- I GUESS I'M
LISTENING TO YOU AND MAYBE HAVE
AN ANSWER TO THIS, BUT YOU ARE A
FORMER ADVISER TO PRESIDENT
ZELENSKYY.
I THINK HE HAS SURPRISED EVEN
WESTERN ALLIES WITH HIS
STEELINESS AND SORT OF
ACCEPTANCE OF WHAT YOU ARE
ARTICULATING.
THAT TO EMBRACE THE FATE.
WHERE DOES THAT COME FROM, FROM
HIS PART, AND WHAT -- I'M
GUESSING YOU ARE NOT SURPRISED
BY WHAT THE WHOLE WORLD IS
SEEING IN HIM.
>> I AM NOT SURPRISED AT ALL
BECAUSE LOOK.
I HAVE KNOWN HIM SINCE 2018.
AND HE'S JUST AN ORDINARY GUY
FROM THE STREET FROM A CENTRAL
UKRAINIAN TOWN.
IT'S A KIND OF TOWN WHERE YOU
GROW UP ON THE STREET.
REGARDLESS OF WHO YOU ARE.
A COMEDIAN, COME FROM AN
ACADEMIC FAMILY.
YOU HAVE TO BE TOUGH TO MAKE IT
IN THAT JUNGLE.
AND YOU KNOW, IT IS ALSO A -- IT
GIVES YOU THAT INJECTION OF A NO
NONSENSE ATTITUDE SO THERE'S NO
TIME FOR HYPOCRISY AND
BUREAUCRACY.
THERE IS NO TIME FOR FEAR.
YOU KNOW?
THERE'S A PROBLEM.
FACE IT HEAD ON.
SEE WHAT COMES OUT OF IT.
HE IS LIKE THAT.
THAT'S GOOD FOR UKRAINE BECAUSE
AS I SAID LAST TIME THERE ARE
HUMAN BEINGS AND POLITICIANS.
IF WE HAD A POLITICIAN WE WOULD
BE SIGNING THE SURRENDER.
I'M NOT SURPRISED AND BY THE WAY
A PERSON FROM THE PRESIDENTIAL
OFFICE TOLD ME TODAY AND I FULLY
CONCUR IS A POSITIVE FROM THE
WAR IS THE FACT THAT YOU GET TO
ENJOY THE LITTLE THINGS YOU
DIDN'T NOTICE.
I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS DOING --
DIGITAL DEEP TALKS DID AN
EXPERIMENT AND SWITCHED THE
MOBILE PHONE OFF FOR TWO DAYS
AND HEARD THE BIRD SINGING.
THERE WERE SINGING BEFORE, I
DIDN'T NOTICE IT.
I GOT A SHOWER AND SHAVE TODAY
AND I SHAVE DAILY AND IT IS NOT
A BIG DEAL.
I DRINK COFFEE DAILY AND EAT
ORANGES DAILY.
I GO FOR A WALK DAILY AND NOW
BECAUSE OF THAT SCARCITY THAT'S
CREATED BY THE WAR IT ALL TASTES
SO GOOD AND FEELS SO GOOD.
YOU LIVE LIFER TO THE FULLEST
AND THAT'S STRENGTH TO SOLVE
THIS SITUATION AND NIGHTS ARE
TOUGH BECAUSE WE HAVE TO GO ON
TROLL
PATROL WHERE I LIVE AND I HAVE A
KALASHNIKOV FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN MY LIFE.
