Cvetin and Jason dive into this exciting episode looking at the continuing and growing scandal engulfing Macedonia – that of Botox, er, Boki 13 and former special prosecutor Katica Janeva. They recap the scandal, the closure of Boki’s TV station, 1TV, the preferential treatment of Boki and Janeva through their “hospital visits” and “sick leave” (for Katica over “anxiety disorder” or something like that), the reformatting of special prosecutor computers by special prosecutors, and the continuing lack of a response from Prime Minister Zoran Zaev. They touch on the recent visit of US Acting Assistant Secretary of State Phil Reeker and that of EU Commissioner Johannes “Use Balkan Tactics” Hahn and their lack of addressing this scandal (including extended monologues by both Cvetin and Jason), the new law on the special prosecutor, and the upcoming anniversary of the Ilinden Uprising, August 2, 1903 and what that means for Macedonia and Macedonians, around the world. All of that plus Cvetin’s Farmer’s Pick and more!
