I sometimes listen to Russian radio and run it through Google translate. It's endless pseudo-philosophy that just goes on for hours and hours. Feels like it's a trope in the Russian world.

Can you share your process for doing that? I've been trying to figure out how to live (or close to live) translate TV and radio, but a lot of the tools I've come across seem to be geared towards cross-language conversations.

Google translate app (at least in Android) has a Transcribe button after you click the microphone. It works in some languages but not all.

TV

For your own sanity don't watch anything other than science and tech channels and cartoons channels.

On blackboard you can see "#no war"/"#against war".

Yeah I'm referring to medium wave radio I can receive here in Helsinki. I don't expect licenses are granted for dissenting voices even if they exist.

It had license until 2022. But its editor is known for pushing and protecting Moscow's ДЭГ where protocols are made up by Sobyanin.

Don't know what you can receive in Helsinki. Probably something from SPb.
