In this conversation, Dr. Rod Berger and Martin Plaut delve into Plaut's rich family history, with a particular focus on his father's experiences as a refugee from Nazi Germany. They explore the significance of family legacies, the emotional weight of symbolic objects, and the contrasting experiences of past generations with the present day. The discussion highlights the importance of storytelling in understanding personal and collective histories, as well as the challenges of processing information in a fast-paced world. In this conversation, Martin Plaut shares his journey from growing up in apartheid South Africa to becoming a journalist and advocate for social justice. He reflects on the profound influence of his family, particularly his mother, in shaping his values and commitment to fighting injustice. The discussion delves into the normalization of apartheid, the role of education and activism in challenging systemic oppression, and the transition to journalism as a means of storytelling. Plaut emphasizes the importance of representing marginalized voices and highlights the ongoing issue of modern slavery in Africa, urging listeners to recognize and address these injustices. The Dr. Rod Berger Show is presented by Fair Observer.

In Hour 3, Segment 2 of The Charlie James Show on August 4, 2026, host Charlie James takes calls from listeners regarding Senate primary candidates and show commentary. Caller David in Greenville expresses support for candidate Mark Lynch, praising his community advocacy during local statue removal controversies and raising concerns over data centers and "SignalTrace software" used in surveillance cameras to track Bluetooth devices. James agrees on the necessity of privacy firewalls between citizens and government. Subsequently, caller Daniel in Greenville critiques James for impersonating Darline Graham's Southern accent, prompting James to defend his long-standing use of comedic impressions and accents on air before taking the show to a commercial break.

We tend to understand and acknowledge that what we say matters. But I find an increasing lack of attention to how we say things. And yet we make conscious and unconscious judgments about people regarding how they are talking, that sometimes become more important than whatever it is they might actually be saying. This is a focus on being aware of our own speech patterns and habits and how they may be hampering our desire to really connect with others. My guest is Valerie Fridland, professor of linguistics in the English Department at the University of Nevada, Reno. As a sociolinguist, Valerie studies how language interacts with society and examines how factors like geography, social class, age, gender, and ethnicity shape accents, vocabulary, and grammar with a focus on how the way we speak impacts the way we think about and talk to one another. Valerie is the author of Like, Literally, Dude: Arguing for the Good in Bad English, and she writes a popular language blog on Psychology Today called "Language in the Wild.” Her new book is Why We Talk Funny: The Real Story Behind our Accents. valeriefridland.com Sign up for your $1/month trial period at shopify.com/kevin Go to shipstation.com and use code KEVIN to start your free trial.

Have you ever pushed on a door that was supposed to be pulled—or pulled when you should have pushed? It feels embarrassing, but don't blame yourself. It turns out the problem usually isn't you. It's the door. https://uxdesign.cc/intro-to-ux-the-norman-door-61f8120b6086 Everyone has an accent—even if they don't think they do. The way you speak tells a story about where you've been, who influenced you, and sometimes even how other people perceive you before you've said more than a few words. Why do accents develop? Why are they so difficult to lose? And do people with accents realize they have one, or do they think everyone else sounds different? Erik Singer, one of Hollywood's leading dialect coaches, explains the fascinating science, history, and psychology behind the way we speak. He has analyzed accents from around the world for millions of viewers online (https://www.eriksinger.com/) and is author of the forthcoming book The Case of the Disappearing R. We all replay conversations in our heads. We rethink decisions, relive embarrassing moments, and imagine what we should have said or done differently. It feels productive—as if we're solving a problem. But more often than not, we're simply trapped in a mental loop called rumination. Far from helping, rumination can fuel anxiety, depression, stress, and self-doubt while making it harder to move forward. Science journalist Donna Jackson Nakazawa explains why our brains get caught in these loops, why they're so difficult to break, and what actually works to quiet an overactive mind. She is author of Mind Drama: The Science of Rumination and How to Outwit Your Inner Defeatist (https://amzn.to/4vKWiNs). You've probably heard the advice that couples who want happier relationships should simply have sex more often. It sounds logical—but research suggests the relationship between sex and happiness may work very differently than most people assume. https://www.cmu.edu/news/stories/archives/2015/may/more-sex-does-not-lead-to-happiness.html PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS WAYFAIR: Ready to upgrade your home for way less?

Les parents suédois n'hésitent pas à envoyer leurs enfants en colonie de vacances, la confiance envers les institutions est globalement élevée dans le pays et les colonies sont soumises à des règles strictes en matière d'encadrement et de protection de l'enfance. Alors qu'en France, la fréquentation des colonies de vacances a été divisée par plus de deux depuis les années 1980, les « kollos » suédoises sont même presque considérées comme un droit : largement financées par les communes, elles restent un pilier des politiques sociales et de la mixité, précieux dans un pays où la criminalité recrute des adolescents de plus en plus jeunes. Chaque été, des milliers d'enfants partent quelques semaines en pleine nature sans leurs parents. Un reportage de notre correspondante dans une colonie gérée par le KFUM, l'équivalent suédois du YMCA, qui fête cette année ses 150 ans, près d'Uppsala, à Alnäs. À retrouver dans la longueur dans Accents d'Europe. À écouter dans 8 milliards de voisinsGrandes vacances: on révise ou on joue?

In this episode, Becky sits down with award-winning writer, filmmaker, and solo performer Skylar Lyralen Kaye (fae/they). We dive deep into the complex creative process behind their recently released non-binary memoir, Bachelorx. The audiobook is a feat of vocal storytelling, featuring 47 distinct characters—including 18 of Skylar's own inner voices. Skylar shares fascinating insights into the technical and emotional challenges of narration, including: Mastering Accents: How they utilized mimicry and digital tools to tackle everything from Puerto Rican to Russian-British accents. The Recording Journey: Moving from a DIY apartment setup to professional studios in Portugal and the importance of vocal pacing. Acting Techniques: Applying the Meisner technique and "Internal Family Systems" to bring authenticity to personal, often painful, memories. The Power of Humor: Using comedy as a survival muscle to navigate the heavy themes of a 35-year marriage and the vulnerability of dating in mid-life. Whether you are an author considering narrating your own memoir or a listener interested in the artistry of voice performance, this episode offers a profound look at how we use art to process trauma, find compassion, and reconnect with ourselves.

C'est un ancien volcan qui pourrait redessiner l'avenir de l'Europe. Dans le sud de la Norvège se trouve le plus grand gisement de terres rares jamais découvert sur le continent. Ces métaux sont indispensables à la fabrication des voitures électriques, des éoliennes, des smartphones ou encore des équipements militaires. Un enjeu devenu stratégique pour notre économie comme pour notre souveraineté, alors que leur production est aujourd'hui largement dominée par la Chine. C'est la compagnie minière norvégienne Rare Earths Norway qui dispose du permis d'extraction. Le reportage de notre correspondante dans la région est à retrouver dans son intégralité dans le podcast Accents d'Europe À lire aussiUn gisement de terres rares découvert en Norvège: un enjeu de souveraineté industrielle pour l'UE

En Moldavie, les arnaques téléphoniques prennent une ampleur inédite. Majoritairement menées depuis l'étranger, ces fraudes ont causé un préjudice de plus de 8 millions d'euros depuis le début de l'année. Les personnes âgées, souvent moins familières des nouvelles technologies, figurent parmi les principales cibles des escrocs. Dans certains cas, la police a rapporté des pertes individuelles pouvant atteindre près de 50 000 euros. Selon les autorités moldaves, ces opérations pourraient être, au moins en partie, orchestrées depuis la Russie afin de miner la confiance de la population dans les institutions et de déstabiliser le pays.  Un reportage de notre correspondante à Chisinau à retrouver dans la longueur dans Accents d'Europe.

L'Allemagne accueille depuis une dizaine d'années des centaines de milliers de migrants, l'immense majorité est prise en charge dans un premier temps dans des foyers et ils sont répartis à travers tout le pays. Mais chaque année, environ 2 500 personnes bénéficient d'un « asile religieux » et sont hébergées par des églises catholiques et protestantes parce qu'elles sont particulièrement vulnérables.  De notre correspondant à Berlin, Antoine – qui a préféré ne pas donner son vrai nom – fait visiter l'appartement dans la paroisse de l'église protestante de Forst, dans le Brandebourg, où il est hébergé. Le jeune Camerounais partage cet appartement de trois pièces avec un Tchadien. Antoine est arrivé à la rentrée dernière en Allemagne. « Je viens du Cameroun, de Douala précisément. J'ai quitté le Cameroun parce que je suis homosexuel et l'homosexualité au Cameroun est très mal vue, témoigne-t-il, donc c'était très difficile. » Antoine est arrivé en Europe via la Roumanie. L'Allemagne avait six mois, conformément aux règles de Dublin, pour le renvoyer dans ce pays par lequel il est entré dans l'Union européenne. On a proposé au jeune homme de bénéficier du « Kirchenasyl », de l'asile religieux : une paroisse décide d'héberger un migrant dans une situation difficile pour le protéger. « La situation juridique est claire : on doit protéger les êtres humains, souligne Simon Klaas, le pasteur à Forst qui a accueilli Antoine. Ils ont le droit à l'asile politique. Une institution comme l'Église a le devoir de défendre ce droit. » À écouter dans Accents d'EuropeImmigration irrégulière: vers des expulsions massives en Allemagne et les Talibans à Bruxelles L'Église remplace l'État Cet asile religieux existe depuis une quarantaine d'années. Les autorités sont au courant, les paroisses doivent expliquer pourquoi les personnes accueillies sont particulièrement vulnérables, comme le fait pour Antoine d'être homosexuel. « Le fait d'être ici, à force, l'asile de l'Église m'a apporté la sécurité, confie Antoine. Déjà, parce qu'au camp, je n'étais pas vraiment en sécurité. La police vient souvent déporter les gens de Dublin vers leur pays d'origine. C'est un grand soulagement que les six mois de la procédure de Dublin soient passés. Je suis très content. » Cet accueil signifie que la paroisse remplace la puissance publique. Elle met un hébergement à disposition et Antoine reçoit 200 euros par mois de l'église de Forst pour se nourrir et pour ses autres frais.  Dans le Brandebourg, région qui entoure Berlin, une quinzaine de paroisses sur 500 offrent un asile religieux. Toutes n'ont pas les capacités logistiques, bien sûr. Mais nous sommes aussi dans un Land où l'extrême droite séduit un tiers de l'électorat. Simon Klaas ne crie pas sur les toits qu'il héberge des migrants. « L'extrême droite réinterprète les valeurs chrétiennes. Aime ton prochain se réduit à la famille ou aux voisins et à ceux qui te ressemblent, mais pas aux autres, dénonce le pasteur. C'est une perversion. » Antoine n'a pas souffert du racisme à Forst où il séjourne encore. Il y a deux jours, sa procédure d'asile en Allemagne a débuté avec un entretien de plusieurs heures. Il devrait connaître la décision des autorités après l'été.  À lire aussi«Nous y arriverons»: en Allemagne, l'intégration des réfugiés progresse dans une société polarisée

Le gouvernement de Madrid a prolongé lundi 29 juin le dispositif de répartition territoriale des mineurs non accompagnés qui arrivent aux îles Canaries d'un an. La mesure s'inscrit dans un contexte de baisse du nombre d'arrivées de migrants sur l'archipel : 3 200 entre janvier et juin, soit 70 % de moins par rapport à 2025. Pour ceux qui n'ont pas rejoint l'Espagne continentale, le foot sert à la fois d'exutoire pour de longues journées et de vecteur d'intégration. L'équipe D de l'Union sportive Las Palmas est née il y a presque 10 ans pour soutenir les jeunes en risque d'exclusion sociale : aujourd'hui, elle est surtout composée de migrants. Un reportage de notre envoyé spécial à Las Palmas, à retrouver en intégralité dans l'émission Accents d'Europe à 19h40 TU sur RFI.
