This April, it\u2019s on. All of it. The storms continue to pour.

It\u2019s coming.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve all seen it gathering, we\u2019ve all heard the reports, we\u2019ll all watched the pieces come into place\u2026and any day now\u2026.or maybe months from now\u2026it will hit. Maybe more like a tectonic earthquake on a faultline than like a storm\u2026.it is coming. We just don\u2019t know when. But it will be big. The biggest conventional war engagement we\u2019ve seen since WW2.<\/p>\n<p>And as we have for the last year, this show will keep a focus on Ukraine. Because in the midst of all the other storms happening this month, the war in Ukraine is the big one. And as we have for the last year, we\u2019re not just gonna track it from a TV screen or from afar. We\u2019re gonna take you inside of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In our uniquely independent and experienced and authentic way. As only this show can. And with a returning champion. A brave and inspiring guest who joined us almost exactly one year ago this week. But one year ago, he was in Connecticut, trying to get people out of the storm in Ukraine. Working with his wife to get his wife\u2019s parents out of the storm\u2014out of Ukraine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And now, one year later, like helpers do, he\u2019s running into the storm. And after getting others out, he\u2019s gone back in. And he\u2019s preparing and training many more to go even further in\u2014into the biggest military engagement of our generation\u2013maybe in two generations.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s a father, he\u2019s a former Army Ranger, he\u2019s a professor, he\u2019s a patriot, he\u2019s an American\u2014and a global citizen with a deep allegiance to all that is good and right. He\u2019s a helper. And he\u2019s a fighter. And as the storm of the century looms and gathers, he\u2019s right in the middle of it. And he talked to us exclusively\u2014in the calm, before the storm that will take countless lives and forever shape history.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s a true American, Ukrainian, and global hero. He\u2019s Adrian Bonenberger (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdrianBonenber1\/\">@AdrianBonenber1<\/a>).
