 Welcome to the Project Censored radio show. I'm your host this week, Eleanor Goldfield. In the first part of the program, I speak with journalist and analyst Ben Norton about the ongoing proxy war between Russia and NATO happening in Ukraine, the U.S.'s bludgeoning of multiple peace deals, the ultimately pointless struggle against a multipolar world, and more. Ben also highlights the recent media kerfuffle on the petrodollar and describes what it is, why it matters, and where our economy is headed.
