For three and a half years, BBC correspondent James Waterhouse
was the face of the Ukraine war, reporting nightly from Kyiv
through air raids, blackouts, and breaking news. In this episode,
he joins Tom and Patrick to reflect on the mental and emotional
toll of years on the frontline, the strange adjustment to life
back home, and the addictive intensity of war. From the first
hours of Russia’s full-scale invasion to the blurred battle lines
of today, he offers a rare insider’s view of a conflict that
continues to redefine modern combat. A gripping conversation
about technology, trauma, and the personal cost of telling one of
the world’s hardest stories.
