Ahh, memories. Was at one of the exile's annual parties in Moscow in the early 2000s and saw both Taibbi and Ames there, amazing time. It's a shame they kind of went off the rails and finally moved abroad. In the book Mark Ames admitted to having sex with an underage girl, hookers, heroin use, etc. Taibbi has definitely made a name for himself since then.
They definitely captured an era of Russia that is gone now, but honestly that lifestyle is really unhealthy. Roosh's approach of bettering oneself by reading, traveling, and having a healthy sex life is better and more fulfilling than the crazy expat life of 1990's Russia.
