Macedonian Content Farmers Podcast, Episode 160: Our In Dependence Day Episode

Jason is in Macedonia! And weirdly optimistic about it (Cvetin does his best to bring him down to planet Earth). And the news help - the main news item is a morbid tale of thievery at the clinic where cancer patients are treated, with doctors and nurses apparently stealing chemo and selling it in Kosovo. We discuss this huge scandal, how it (likely) worked and the political ramifications. And also, the very strange decision by the SDSM majority in Parliament to change the criminal code overnight in a way that could help former VMRO officials who faced persecution over the past years, but also SDSM and DUI people in the future. Is it a sign of a deal on the Bulgarian amendments? Is there a deal with VMRO (or some in VMRO)? Is it an attempt to divide VMRO? We don't know, just asking questions.
Oh yeah, and Macedonia celebrates its Independence Day. Or, should we say In Dependence Day.
