Romanov: Czar of Hearts
We asked for your question to put to the Romanov: Czar of Hearts production team earlier in the are a few answers from the show's producer James Christie:Fraser asked: How did you actually track Vlad down? How hard was it?James answered: When we started the podcast we genuinely didn't believe it would be possible to track him was when talking to Jonas Miklovas, the basketball journalist from episode eight, we discovered he actually went to Moscow to interview him in 2018-ish, but since then his contact had year I was in a WhatsApp conversation with someone in Russia about the podcast and they casually let slip: "I wished him a happy birthday last year." He then spoke to Vladimir for me and sent me his led to a couple of months of chatting via text before we finally got him into the studio in Russia. So all in all, nowhere near as hard as we, or anyone else, probably asked: Brilliant series! Loved the testimonies from the players, staff and journalists etc of the time. As a diehard Jambo, I was surprised to learn new stuff relating to Romanov's 'shenanigans' like they got close to appointing Claudio Raineri. What other big names were Romanov's team talking to - players, managers, KGB etc?James answered: This didn't make the podcast as we couldn't properly verify it, but Vladimir did an interview with a Russian news outlet and in it he claimed Guus Hiddink had approached him to become Hearts says Hiddink wanted £500,000 but that was too much. Vlad also stated he was looking for a like-minded person and not a star. Another potential case of what could've asked: Hi guys, the show was incredible. Best podcast I've heard. How difficult was it not just getting Vlad but all your other guests, particularly those from Lithuania? I really hope you make more deep dives into other football stories like answered: I think the passage of time was one of the key reasons we were able to interview a few of the people from within Vlad's inner circle at Hearts. I'm not sure Sergejus Fedotovas would've spoken to us 10 years ago for instance.A lot of people's first response when I called them about the podcast was "This is such a good idea". The fact they were aware just how incredible a story it was helped a lot with getting people to agree to take asked: Is it true he lives/lived in a nuclear submarine in Russia?James answered: A few years ago he gave an interview to Russian TV at the submarine and this has been mistranslated in a few newspapers that he'd spent all his money on the submarine and was now living in far as I know he has never lived in it. In fact, it's actually just a small section of the K-19 submarine that Vlad managed to save before it was you look around the internet there are a few videos showing you inside it. It is very much just a hollow steel shell, I really don't believe anyone could spend a night in it let alone live in it.
