First hour: What are the possible paths forward with the Russian invasion of Ukraine?
Second hour: Why has Wordle become so galvanizing?
Ukraine continues to defend itself against Russian invasion. The war has been more difficult than Russian leaders expected. Meanwhile, NATO continues to refuse Ukrainian requests to establish a no-fly zone. What are the possible paths forward in this conflict? Our guests discuss it:
- Hein Goemans, professor of political science at the University of Rochester
- Randy Stone, director of the Skalny Center for Polish and Central European Studies at the University of Rochester
Then in our second hour, the Rochester Wordle League has raised nearly a thousand dollars for local charity and relief efforts, including ROC Maidan. So why has Wordle been so galvanizing? We have some fun exploring it, and we ask the top Wordle players to explain why they're so much better than the rest of us. Our guests:
- Dylan Dailor, winner of ROC Wordle Season One
- Sean Dobbin, founder of ROC Wordle
- Reagan McNameking, winner of ROC Wordle Season Two
- Heather Smith, current leader of ROC Wordle Season Three
