The episode was recorded at Vytautas Magnus University in Kaunas, where Artūras presented the newest Nanook multimedia project “While the Red is on”. The project uncovers the stories about Russian political refugees finding new home in Lithuania. Later Brian Whitmore talked about the the project in his blog.
