REGISTER: Bette's Happy Hour with Zarina Zabrisky & Special Global Guests

War correspondent and author Zarina Zabrisky will be joining us on Tues., 2/4, along with other global guests, to update us on Russia's war in Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova and her recent visit to Berlin.

***Bette members will find the registration link below the paywall. To join our community events and to help support independent investigative journalism in a time of grave peril, please upgrade to a paid membership.

Thank you to everyone who showed up on Tuesday for our meeting with such Bette members as Monique Camarra, Dietmar Pichler, Alex Alvarova, and Sid White, each updating us on important geopolitical events from the EU, Georgia, and beyond.

This week on Tuesday, at 9 am Pacific time/noon Eastern, war correspondent Zarina Zabrisky will be giving us updates from Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, and Germany. We will also be joined by additional guests from Europe.

Zabrisky should be familiar to Bette members, as she has appeared on these pages dozens of times and in the squares with us many times. I do urge you to check out my friend Greg Olear’s recent interview with her, along with Greg’s beautiful poem.

Sunday Pages: "Redux"

Our Happy Hours began more than two years ago as an ironically named weekly wellness checkin for global newsies and has evolved to include important information from around the world. I am very grateful to those of you who show up week after week, and please note: this week we meet at 9 am Pacific, so please check your time zones, as we are now reaching people in 81 countries.

I am also grateful to those of you who showed up for our Sunday Speakeasy data security briefing last week. I sent the PDF for Bette members that documented some of the subjects we touched on in the this post.

If you haven’t already read it, please review my recent Hot Type column. It’s important to learn from the countries that are fighting Russian aggression, rather than surrendering:
