Podcasts about auschwitz

Today, The Fellowship's C.J. Burroughs shares the story of a woman who escaped a death train to Auschwitz.

Rivca Zacharia's family moved from Israel to the U.S. in 1967 when she was just 6 years old. Traveling by ship, her family (father, mother and sister) arrived in Brooklyn on a cold and snowy February day. She remembers the cold and how she and her sister hated it at first. On their way to the U.S. they stopped in Greece to visit her father's parents, his sister and family. They spoke only Hebrew and Greek and soon after enrolling in school, she would begin learning English with her new Americanized name, Rifka, that her teacher said she must take. She was young and having to change her name in school was very confusing. Sadly, Rivca never had the opportunity to meet her maternal grandparents as they died at Auschwitz. Her mother was a concentration camp survivor but never spoke about it until they were much older when Rivca applied for reparations for her parents. Although it was for a good purpose, reliving this experience was very painful for her mother and for Rivca to learn about this in such detail was deeply upsetting. Her mother had endured grueling treatment. Growing up, her parents owned and operated a butcher shop in the Bronx and later owned a men's clothing store in Queens. Her parents worked relentlessly, and also went to adult education to learn English. She inherited her parents work ethic and assisted them in the store while maintaining a full-time courseload as a student attending Queens College and later Yeshiva University for her master's in school psychology. She's worked in advertising and sales, and embraced her entrepreneurial spirit while owning and operating her own advertising company representing magazines for advertising sales and serving a large territory of publishers. She later felt called to return and get a 2nd masters in school psychology and currently works in a low socioeconomic school district supporting students and their families. Her role as a school psychologist is very rewarding, but presents deeply challenging issues. She continually seeks new and creative ways to make positive impact by providing resources and developing programs to enrich her student's experience. Her personal struggles growing up as a young immigrant, and witnessing her parents strength and sacrifices has resulted in deep resilience and empathy which influences her approach to her work, raising her family and everyday life.

Primo Levi is the modern conscience of Europe. Yet our culture warriors downgrade his searing witness to Auschwitz into just another lesson in victimhood or, worse, try and downplay the significance of the holocaust into one of many. This lecture we restores Levi's grim brilliance – and expose today's relativists who would rather talk about “systems” than evil.

In this episode, we share a really personal part of our recent family trip — visiting Auschwitz, and what that experience meant for Steve and his healing journey. This wasn't just a tourist stop for us. It was something Steve felt deeply called to do — to stand there, to feel it, to face a piece of his history, bloodline, and to keep doing the work of processing and healing.I talk about what it looked like to support him through that. Not fix. Not rescue. But stand by him, hold space, and let him be where he needed to be — emotionally, physically, spiritually. And Steve shares what it meant to feel genuinely supported, not rushed or managed, but truly cared for and held.We also reflect on how big moments like this shape a relationship. When one person heals, the ripple hits both. It deepens the connection. It builds trust. It strengthens the kind of love that grows not just in the good times, but in the hard ones.It's a vulnerable share — and one we hope reminds you of the power of showing up for each other in the hard, healing, holy moments of life.Buy my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USACoach with me 1:1 - Book a 20-minute call nowThe Good Life - sign up nowFree Wheel of Life Assessment - take the test nowSunday Meds - live event by the beach, June 22ndWrite into us - let us know what you want to hearwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show

Can we ever really know Primo Levi? We know his books, of course, especially If This Is A Man, the astonishing account of his survival from Auschwitz. But what, then, of his apparent suicide in 1987? How can a man who miraculously survived Auschwitz take his own life forty years later? That's one of the questions that Joseph Olshan asks in Milo's Reckoning, a new novel about Levi, suicide and our own unknowability. Olshan, himself deeply affected by Primo Levi's death when he first heard the news during a newspaper interview in Italy, explores the profound mystery of human nature and the limits of what we can truly understand about others, even those, like Levi, whose experiences have been supposedly laid bare in their autobiographical work. 5 takeaways1. Suicide is often impulsive, not premeditated Most suicides happen in the spur of the moment when people "snap" under pressure, rather than being carefully planned decisions. The majority don't even leave notes, contrary to popular belief.2. Personal trauma shaped Olshan's literary obsessions Olshan's lifelong fascination with suicide stems from witnessing a child's drowning at age six, followed by the suicides of an influential college professor and his aunt - experiences that ultimately inspired Milo's Reckoning.3. We can never fully know another person Even when someone writes intimately about their experiences, as Levi did about Auschwitz, we still can't truly understand their inner life or predict their future actions - hence the shock of Levi's apparent suicide.4. Language barriers limit authentic cultural understanding Olshan argues that American writers who spend brief periods abroad without knowing the local language cannot authentically capture those cultures, emphasizing the importance of linguistic fluency for true cultural insight.5. Too much self-knowledge may be dangerous Olshan suggests that suicide might result from excessive self-awareness - people who contemplate life's inequities and their own perceived deficiencies too deeply may become overwhelmed by the world's suffering and their place in it.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

The economic realities of a failing war in the east accelerated the timetable for genocide at the highest levels of the Third Reich, but in July 1942 Heinrich Himmler also intended Auschwitz Birkenau to be a site for extracting slave labour from prisoners. He intended this because of the impeding economic and production crises that would engulf the Third Reich as it faced an alliance of America, the USSR and the British Empire. This podcast episode explores the intentions of the SS leader and of Hitler and how they were translated into brutal reality in the summer of 1942. *****STOP PRESS*****I only ever talk about history on this podcast but I also have another life, yes, that of aspirant fantasy author and if that's your thing you can get a copy of my debut novel The Blood of Tharta, right here:Help the podcast to continue bringing you history each weekIf you enjoy the Explaining History podcast and its many years of content and would like to help the show continue, please consider supporting it in the following ways:If you want to go ad-free, you can take out a membership hereOrYou can support the podcast via Patreon hereOr you can just say some nice things about it here Hosted on Acast.

Where in the world am I? Eurail Travel planning   Hi there, I'm Dr. Mary Travelbest. I'm in San Diego now, sharing my best travel ideas and working on another book for you to enjoy: 5 Steps to Solo Travel, Part C. I'm about to launch on a 90-day trip around the world.   Listener Story Spotlight I want to tell you about a listener named Kristen. Kristen loves to travel. She recently received a Fullbright Scholarship and took a trip with her husband and sons to a foreign country, Portugal, for several months. She's full of great travel ideas and will be helpful as I continue to travel and make my adventures more mobile. She's encouraging me to keep going in my travels and is a professor in Southern California. Quick fire FAQ: The FAQ for today is:  Do you find that air travel dries your sinuses? Do you get dry and scratchy throats afterward? Yes, it happens. Let's talk about how to rid yourself of this in advance.    How to avoid the dryness of airline flights? The answer:   My solution is Saline Nasal Spray. I bought the 1.5-oz size for $4.00, which will last my entire trip. Before you get dry sinuses, squirt some in each nostril and then relax as it goes to work. What are the ingredients? Water, sodium chloride, disodium phosphate, benzyl alcohol, sodium phosphate, and benzalkonium chloride. Water and salt. There are three ways to use it: Squeeze twice in each nostril, and it delivers a spray, a stream, and a drop upside down. Take your pick. 60-second confidence challenge   Advice for Active Seniors :  “There is no shame in prioritizing and slowing down vs. overdoing. Most injuries happen when people are rushing. “Go slower, arrive sooner” is a helpful mantra.”  (Ellen McCabe) If you like today's Confidence Challenge, Chapter 2 of my book dives deeper buy it on Amazon or https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com   See Book A for addressing all of these items.   Today's destination is Eurail Travel Planning I said: You are traveling in Europe in the Summer of 2025. You arrive in Athens, Greece, then go to Krakow, Warsaw, Poland, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, and end in Edinburgh, Scotland, where you leave the EU. You will travel for five weeks. How many days will you want to use the Eurail pass for trains and ferries? Plan the trip, including seat fees and senior discounts with these countries, and suggest other places that would be a good stopping point or worth seeing. I am a solo woman in my prime. Include a mention of the low-cost airlines that I should take when not on the train or ferry.   Answer:   1  Where a Eurail day genuinely saves you money Below is every leg: (a) scenic or pricey at full fare and (b) covered or discounted by the pass if the trip is a low-fare train, like under $10.regional hop, we skip the past day and just pay cash—why burn powder you might need later?    1  Day 3 Athens → Kalabaka  €3 IC seat  Sunset over Meteora cliffs—worth the four-hour train.  2  Day 5 Kalabaka → Thessaloníki  free (regional) No supplement, but one more travel day.  3  Day 9 Krakow → Oświęcim (return) free (regional) Auschwitz day trip; counts once.  4  Day 11 Krakow → Warsaw (EIP)  ~PLN 35 ≈ €8  High‑speed, mandatory seat.  5  Day 13 Warsaw → Gdańsk or Toruń (optional)  PLN 3 ≈ €0.70 Use if you “dive” north.  6  Day 16 Tallinn → Helsinki ferry  deck = free; cabin = ‑20 %  Tallink Silja It counts oas ne travel day.  7  Day 17 Helsinki → Tampere & back  €0–€6 VR seat  Eurail Pendolino; book in app.  8  Day 19 Helsinki o/night ferry → Stockholm  deck = free; cabin –20 % Same Tallink perk.  9  Day 21 Stockholm → Uppsala (return)  €0 (regional) Same‑day out‑and‑back.  10  Day 22 Stockholm → Gothenburg  ≈ €7 SJ seat  Eurail Community 3 h X2000.  11  Day 23 Gothenburg → Oslo  free No reservations.  12  Day 25 Oslo → Bergen  ≈ NOK 50 ≈ €4 seat Bergensbanen panorama.  13  Day 26 Bergen → Flåm train + Nærøyfjord boat  boat covered A rail‑and‑fjord combo.  14  Day 30 Copenhagen → Roskilde day‑trip  ≈ €9 seat  Eurail Vikings have & an easy return.  15  Day 32 Edinburgh → Inverness  £0–£5 seat UK still in the Eurail network.   * Fees are 2ᵈ ‑class, summer 2025 published rates.   Total Eurail travel days = 15 – the cap of the 15‑days‑in‑2‑months Senior Global Pass  2  What about the long, awkward gaps?

That's $200-250 saved, plus the flexibility to reroute if wildfires, strikes, or your whims intervene.   5  Quick checklist before you lock it in Buy the Senior Global Pass (15 days/2 months) before prices rise.   Book the four trains with limited seats (EIP Poland, X2000 Sweden, Bergensbanen, Copenhagen reservations) as soon as reservations open—usually 60–90 days in advance.   Use the Rail Planner app to activate travel days on the morning you board; keep two blanks until the very end in case you shuffle plans.   Flights: watch Friday flash sales on Ryanair/Norwegian; they routinely drop

What happens when you pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet in St. Faustina's backyard?  This week, Father Dave shares powerful moments from his recent pilgrimage to Poland—visiting sacred sites tied to St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Faustina, and St. John Paul II. From celebrating Mass at Kolbe's friary to walking through Auschwitz and Birkenau, it's a glimpse of God's mercy amid some of history's darkest places.  While Father Dave walked in the footsteps of saints, Deacon Bob found hopeful witness in the desert. He returns from the Life Teen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention in Arizona, where he gave a talk on “Radiant Hope” and reconnected with longtime friends in ministry. Together, the hosts reflect on the quiet, often unseen ways God raises up saints in every generation—even in the most unexpected places.  And yes, this episode still includes classic They That Hope moments: breakfast with Father Dave's brother Tom, a temporarily misplaced child on the New York subway, and a burning question: Why does the French Open have two names?    Highlighted Sections  (00:00) Breakfast with Tom, Arizona Adventures, and Youth Ministry in the Desert  Deacon Bob recounts his recent trip to Arizona for the Life Teen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention where he reconnected with ministry leaders and gave a keynote on “Radiant Hope.” He also shares a surprise breakfast meet-up with Father Dave's brother, Tom (a loyal listener), some humorous travel woes, and the joy of being surrounded by those serving the Church's youth.  (04:08) Sports Recap: NBA, NHL, Tennis, and... Golf?  From unexpected NBA playoff upsets to a grueling five-set French Open final, Father Dave and Deacon Bob weigh in on recent sports headlines. They touch on the drama of playoff hockey, marvel at JJ Spaun's 62-foot putt, and clear up (sort of) why the French Open is also called Roland-Garros.  (09:01) Audiobook Adventures  Deacon Bob announces that his book Sharing the Gospel with Our Lives is getting the audiobook treatment—and he's narrating it himself. He shares the process (including a mysterious home studio in Columbus), while Father Dave recalls the heartbreak of being cut off with just 15 minutes left in a Navy SEAL memoir due to subscription limits.  (16:29) Pilgrimage to Poland: Kolbe, Faustina & Divine Mercy in Dark Places  Father Dave reflects on the deeply moving pilgrimage he led across Poland. Highlights include Mass at St. Maximilian Kolbe's friary visiting the birthplace of St. Faustina, and praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet in St. Faustina's backyard with her niece. He shares how the lives of these saints—and the sobering visit to Auschwitz and Birkenau—revealed the light of God even in history's darkest moments.  (23:02) Saints Amidst Suffering  As conflict rages in places like Gaza and Ukraine, the hosts reflect on how God raises up saints in every era. From the Missionaries of Charity caring for the vulnerable in war zones, to everyday youth ministers and celibate religious, they honor those whose quiet, faithful witness brings hope to the world.  (28:22) Radiant Hope in Service  Expanding on his convention talk, Deacon Bob shares how true Christian hope is made visible through acts of loving service. Drawing from Scripture and the Visitation of Mary, he explains how hope, though unseen, shines clearly in those who serve joyfully and sacrificially.    Resources Mentioned  ·                     Sharing the Gospel with Our Lives: A Relational Approach to Catholic Youth Ministry by Deacon Bob Rice  ·                     LifeTeen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention  ·                     In Person with Bishop Cozzens on Faith&Reason  ·                     Hoopla streaming app  ·                     Franciscan Catechetical Institute  ·                     Divine Mercy Shrine in Kraków, Poland  ·                     Niepokalanów, St. Maximilian Kolbe's Friary  ·                     Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum  ·                     How to Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet

Eva Kuper, a Holocaust survivor from Montreal, spent the first five years of her life hiding from the Nazis in German-occupied Poland. Now, the well-known Holocaust educator is stranded in Israel together with a group of university and CEGEP students on the “Journey of Hope”, a trip supported by Montreal's Federation CJA. After visiting Auschwitz with the students two weeks ago, and taking them to see the sites in Poland where Kuper grew up between 1940 and 1945, the delegation landed in Israel a week ago—just before Israel launched its surprise air raids on Iran on June 13. Since then, Iran has been retaliating with nightly barrages of missiles and drones that have now killed 24 people and injured more than 600 others. The action curtailed the Canadians' trip, and the group is now spending its time confined to their hotel, rushing down to bomb shelters when the air raid sirens go off. While the students—and their worried parents—have been anxious, Kuper has been impressed by the scenes of resilience she has observed. She joins _North Star _host Ellin Bessner from Israel. In this episode, you'll also hear from Yair Szlak, the CEO of Federation CJA of Montreal, who explains what his organization is doing to help bring people home, and from Glenn Nashen, a parent of a teenager now on Birthright who is also stranded in Israel.

Giorgio Agamben'i bilirsiniz. Kitaplarının büyük çoğunluğu Türkçe'ye de tercüme edilen Agamben, Yahudi asıllı İtalyan bir filozoftur. Gazze'yi Modern Kamp olarak niteleyen Agamben, Filistin Meselesi'ndeki hakkaniyetli görüş ve yorumlarıyla namuslu entelektüel grubunda yer alır. Bu yönünü nasipse ayrıca ele alacağım ancak şimdi felsefi-politik düzeydeki ilk kullanım hakkı ona ait olan şu terim üzerinde duracağım: Muselmann!

Czesi i Polacy zostawili podobne ślady w kosmosie. Vladimir Remek i Zbigniew Hermaszewski na orbitę polecieli w odstępie kilku miesięcy, w ramach tego samego, realizowanego pod egidą ZSRR programu Interkosmos.W amerykańskiej NASA było trzech astronautów o czeskich i trzech o polskich korzeniach. A teraz, gdy Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski czeka na sprzyjające warunki dla startu w ramach misji ESA, do swojej - również w barwach Europejskiej Agencji Kosmicznej, szykuje się powoli Aleš Svoboda.W tym odcinku, o numerze 79, opowiadam bliżej o wszystkich czeskich śladach w kosmosie. Jest więc o tym, co Remek zabrał ze sobą na stację Wostok i gdzie można znaleźć jego pomnik. Jest też o dwóch potomkach czeskim emigrantów, z których jeden cudem z księżyca wrócił a drugi jako ostatni na nim stanął. I o jeszcze jednym astronaucie, który razem z Rosjanami przygotowywał grunt pod budowę Międzynarodowej Stacji Kosmicznej. Wracam też do gwiezdnych podróży krecika, najpopularniejszej ponoć w przestrzeni kosmicznej symfonii i tego, co z lotami na orbitę miał wspólnego młody czeski Żyd, zamordowany przez Niemców w Auschwitz.O jednej tylko rzeczy, chociaż miałem ją w planach - zapomniałem, nie ma niestety w odcinku ani słowa o fenomenalnej czeskiej komedii KOSMO, opowiadającej o współczesnej, sponsorowanej przez hodowcę drobiu czeskiej misji na księżyc.Obiecuję ten wątek rozwinąć przy innej okazji. ***Jeśli podcast Wam się podoba i chcecie pomóc go rozwijać, możecie zostać Patronami lub Patronkami Czechostacji w serwisie Patronite.

La question semble presque insensée. Qui, en pleine Seconde Guerre mondiale, choisirait délibérément de se faire enfermer dans l'un des camps les plus terrifiants du régime nazi ? Pourtant, c'est exactement ce qu'a fait Witold Pilecki, officier de l'armée polonaise et membre de la résistance.L'histoire débute en 1940. La Pologne est écrasée sous l'occupation allemande. À Varsovie, des rumeurs circulent : à environ 50 kilomètres de là, un nouveau camp, appelé Auschwitz, aurait été ouvert. Officiellement, il s'agit d'un camp pour prisonniers politiques. Mais des échos plus sinistres commencent à émerger. Le commandement de l'Armée secrète polonaise cherche alors un volontaire pour pénétrer ce camp et en rapporter des informations fiables.Witold Pilecki se porte volontaire. Officier de carrière, profondément patriote, il est convaincu que seule la connaissance précise de ce qui se passe à Auschwitz permettra à la résistance et aux Alliés de réagir. En septembre 1940, il se fait délibérément arrêter lors d'une rafle à Varsovie, sous une fausse identité. Direction Auschwitz.Ce qu'il découvre dépasse l'horreur. Conditions de vie inhumaines, travail forcé, exécutions sommaires, famine, maladies… Dès l'intérieur du camp, Pilecki organise un réseau clandestin de résistance, le ZOW (Związek Organizacji Wojskowej). Ce réseau collecte des renseignements, prépare des sabotages et, surtout, transmet des rapports détaillés vers l'extérieur via des contacts infiltrés. Ce sont les premiers témoignages crédibles sur les atrocités d'Auschwitz qui parviennent à Londres.Pendant près de trois ans, Pilecki survit et documente l'enfer. Mais en 1943, constatant qu'un soulèvement interne reste irréalisable sans aide extérieure, il décide de s'évader. Après une évasion rocambolesque, il reprend le combat dans la résistance polonaise.Après la guerre, le sort de Pilecki reste tragique. Opposé au nouveau régime communiste installé en Pologne, il est arrêté en 1947 par la police politique. Accusé de conspiration, il est condamné à mort et exécuté en 1948. Pendant des décennies, son histoire est étouffée.Aujourd'hui, Witold Pilecki est reconnu comme l'un des héros les plus courageux de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Son incroyable sacrifice volontaire a permis au monde de prendre conscience, dès 1941-42, de la véritable nature d'Auschwitz. Un geste de bravoure rare, qui force encore le respect.

Mark joined me on The Picky Bookworm this week, and I had SUCH a blast! It turned out to be kind of funny, because he commented on his age at one point, and I admitted I didn't know how old he was when I invited him on. It turned out to be perfect, because it felt like sitting with my grandpa, listening to him talk about his life. He talked about his books, Devil's Bookkeepers, and what inspired them. His parents were survivors of Auschwitz during the Holocaust and immigrated to the US when Mark was very small. This chat was amazing, and enlightening, and incredible. I hope you enjoy as much as I did!Hang out with Mark online:Facebook:⁠ https://www.facebook.com/mark.newhouse.904Website: http://markhnewhouse.comDevil's Bookkeepers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NGJ7HGWDefenders of Monstrovia Podcast is available on the following platforms: Amazon, Google, Apple, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and GoGoGo. It's a dramatization of his kid's books of the same name. I'll take a listen and be sure to let you know what I think!I really had an absolute blast during this episode, and I hope you enjoy, as well! Mark did have to set me straight about a couple things, which I never mind. I hate when things make sense in my mind, but don't get verbalized right, but when people are willing to tell me, "Hey, that doesn't sound right," it helps me make sure I'm communicating what I mean in a more sensitive way. I hope you can take a lesson from my mistakes and know that no one is perfect! I've never claimed to be perfect, and understanding that our words do have an impact, whether we mean them the way they sound or not, is important. If I sound frustrated, it's at myself, not at Mark, so please take his correction in the spirit it's meant. I love all of you and want to make sure this community always remains the kind and wonderful place it's always been. Until Next Time, Friends!

During World War II, several thousand women served as concentration camp guards in Nazi Germany, particularly within the SS women’s auxiliary. These female guards—known as Aufseherinnen—were deployed mainly in camps like Ravensbrück (a women's camp), Auschwitz, Bergen-Belsen, and Majdanek. Recruited largely from working-class backgrounds, many were trained at Ravensbrück before being assigned to other camps. … Continue reading Episode 460: SS Women – Female Concentration Camp Guards

#164 - What healing power can be found in visiting sites of tragedy and suffering? For Dr. Chad Scott, dark tourism became an unexpected lifeline during his darkest days.When severe health issues led to a liver transplant, Dr. Scott discovered profound meaning and purpose by exploring places marked by historical tragedy. From standing in gas chambers at Auschwitz to witnessing the aftermath of atomic destruction in Hiroshima, these powerful experiences helped him process his own struggles with divorce, career setbacks, and chronic illness."When you're going through hell, keep going," became his mantra, borrowed from Churchill's famous words. Throughout our conversation, Chad reveals how confronting mortality at history's darkest sites paradoxically taught him to live with greater intention and purpose. The practice of "memento mori"—remembering one's mortality—isn't about dwelling in darkness, but using awareness of life's brevity to live more meaningfully.As a therapist with decades of experience, Chad brings unique professional insights to how dark tourism functions as a form of existential therapy. He explains that standing in places where countless people suffered and died doesn't leave you unchanged—it transforms you into someone with deeper compassion and greater resilience. These experiences, from Paris catacombs to plantation slavery museums, challenge visitors to connect with humanity's shared suffering while finding strength in storytelling and remembrance.Chad's journey culminated in his book "Beyond the Darkness: Transformative Journeys Through Dark Tourism," where he details how these profound experiences helped him overcome crippling anxiety and find purpose during his health crisis. His story reminds us that sometimes the path through personal darkness requires confronting humanity's darkest moments—not to wallow in despair, but to find the meaning that illuminates our way forward.Listen to discover how pushing beyond your comfort zone—whether through adventure or confronting difficult histories—might just transform your own life. What places have changed you? Where might you go to find yourself?To learn more about Dr. Chad Scott and Dark Tourism visit his website www.drchadscott.com.

Ayer nos dejaba Brian Wilson, vocalista y fundador de una de las bandas de rock más influyentes del siglo XX, The Beach Boys. Con José Manuel Sebastián, director de 'Que parezca un accidente' en Radio 3, repasamos la historia del músico, su papel en la creación de un nuevo sonido californiano y su impacto duradero en la música popular.También nos preguntamos: ¿Se puede llegar a apagar la conciencia? ¿Todos somos susceptibles de que nos pase? 'Blaubeeren' es un texto de Moisés Kaufman y Amanda Gronich, finalista de los premios Pulitzer en Estados Unidos el año pasado, que ha llevado a escena Sergio Peris-Mencheta en los Teatros del Canal, con la participación de Víctor Clavijo. La obra parte del hallazgo de un álbum de fotos inéditas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, enviado a Rebecca Erbelding, directora de archivos del Museo del Holocausto de EE.UU., que retrata a los oficiales de Auschwitz en momentos de ocio.Conxita Casanovas repasa los estrenos cinematográficos de la semana: dos títulos muy vinculados al orgullo LGTBIQ+, 'Tres km al fin del mundo' y 'Todo saldrá bien'. También hablamos de 'Miss Carbon', historia real de Carla Antonella Rodríguez, la primera minera trans en una región argentina. Entre los estrenos españoles destacan 'Esmorza amb mi', 'Votemos', 'Los bárbaros' y la comedia 'Algo le pasa a mi yerno'.Y con Martín Llade escuchamos parte del repertorio que sonará en la cuarta edición de Piano City Madrid, festival que llena la ciudad de música en directo con 56 conciertos gratuitos en espacios emblemáticos.

Watch this episode with Wendy Holden, the author of 'The Teacher of Aushwitz' a stirring, sad, hopeful novel about a 28 year old gay Jewish inmate of Auschwitz who started up a children's barrick in the concentration camp to teach the children how to deal with the barbarism of their environment, and learn studies and creativity. Fredy was able to open the school through courageous negotiations with the SS, including Joseph Mengele. Wendy, a former war correspondent, is a magnificent author (of over 40 books) and guest. I enjoyed my time with her so much, her stories, her insights and her unparalleled positivity about human nature. Wendy is highly inspiring.

The Spinka chassidic dynasty was established in the late 19th century as a sort of offshoot of the Zidichov dynasty, by Rav Yosef Meir Weiss (1838-1909) in the town of Spinka, in the Maramuris region of Transylvania, then in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It soon gained a significant following and emerged as one of the prominent Hungarian Chassidic communities of the first half of the century. This was especially so under the able leadership of his son and successor Rav Yitzchak Eizik Weiss (1875-1944), the Chekel Yitzchak, who moved his court to the town of Selish following World War I. The Spinka Rebbe and most of his family were murdered by the Nazis in Auschwitz during the Holocaust, but surviving grandchildren who miraculously survived rebuilt Spinka in the United States and Israel after the war.

Notorious Nazi doctor, ‘Angel of Death' Josef Mengele, spent the last twenty years of his life on the run. His remains were recovered in São Paulo on 6th June, 1985, when Brazilian Police dug up the grave of a man named “Wolfgang Gerhard” - later proven to be Mengele, who'd drowned at a beach resort at the age of 68. Mengele, responsible for sending up to 400,000 Jews to their deaths at Auschwitz, was able to escape to Argentina via Italy after the War, even living freely under his real name for a period, before Mossad and ‘Nazi Hunter' Simon Wiesenthal began hunting him down more assiduously. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly reveal how frustratingly close Israel's secret services came to capturing him in his lifetime; explain how he was able to live under cover in South America for decades; and consider the irony of what finally happened to his skeleton… Content Warning: depictions of Auschwitz, Holocaust torture techniques Further Reading: • ‘Son Says Mengele's Dead, Tells Why He Kept Silent : Learned of Death in 1979' (Los Angeles Times, 1985): https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1985-06-11-mn-10339-story.html • ‘How did the infamous Josef Mengele escape punishment?'

Le 24 octobre 1942, le jeune Hanus Hachenburg, né à Prague, est déporté, à une cinquantaine de kilomètres, dans ville-forteresse de Terezin, transformée en ghetto et en camp de transit et de concentration nazi. Conçue pour 6 000 habitants, elle abrite, à cette époque, plus de 50 000 Juifs. Hanus intègre la chambrée n° 1, en compagnie d'une quarantaine d'autres enfants. C'est là que naît la « République de ŠKID », une sorte de régime autogéré par ces enfants-adolescents. Une République doté d'un gouvernement, d'une Constitution et de comités. Le cœur de cette « création » est un journal dans lequel les contributeurs peuvent exprimer leur ressenti. Ils débattent, ils dessinent, ils se moquent dans tous les styles littéraires. Hanus y fait paraître ses poèmes mais aussi des essais philosophiques, des chroniques décrivant la vie quotidienne du ghetto. Et aussi une pièce de théâtre pour marionnettes. Le 18 décembre 1943, l'adolescent est transféré au camp d'Auschwitz-Birkenau. Deux jours après son anniversaire, le 12 juillet, Hanus Hachenburg est assassiné. Il venait d'avoir quinze ans. Souvenons-nous de ce jeune poète… Avec nous : Baptiste Cogitore. « L'Enfant comète - Hanus Hachenburg - Prague, 1929 - Birkenau, 1944 » ; Plon/Rodéo d'âme. + documentaire « Le fantôme de Theresienstadt ».

A Polish soldier who voluntarily went undercover inside Auschwitz, he gathered crucial intelligence and organized resistance from within the camp itself. Today, we'll uncover the life of a man whose bravery and sacrifice went beyond what most could imagine — a story of courage, hope, and the fight against unimaginable evil.Support the showInsta@justpassingthroughpodcastContact:justpassingthroughpodcast@gmail.com

Dana Arschin is a 3X Emmy Award-winning journalist, mother of two, granddaughter of an Auschwitz survivor, and a dedicated Holocaust storyteller. Her life's work is centered around one mission: ensuring the stories of survivors are never forgotten. Her dream was to ‘make it' as a journalist in New York, and that journey began at News 12 in Brooklyn. She later joined Fox 5 NY, where she launched a powerful series featuring interviews with Holocaust survivors. The rest, as they say, is history.But when we say “never again”, what do those truly mean? As history continues to repeat itself, it's fair to ask whether telling these stories really makes a difference for the next generation. The simple answer is yes. These testimonies—whether from the Holocaust or other genocides—are sometimes all we have left, and as such, it is our collective responsibility to keep their memories alive. And still, it is often times more complicated than that.

Cultural Christianity is bad in the Church, but really good in society. If that is true, then we need real christians in church producing culture that impacts society. We can't have fake christians and deists as our only ambassadors to the world. They will fail because they don't know Christ. They don't have the Holy Spirit within them. They don't have the Father's favor.Introduction (00:00:00 - 00:02:09)* Opening Dialogue: The hosts engage in a brief, cryptic exchange about spiritual and metaphysical questions, referencing a psychologist's inability to address good and evil without Jesus as the answer.* Podcast Welcome (00:01:05): Introduction to the Kingsplaining Podcast, self-described as the "I Told You Show," hosted by the two kings of the "Rube Empire."* Hosts introduce themselves as right-wing extremists, supernaturalists, and Christian bigots with a humorous tone.* Philosopher King: Claims 51% of the power, resides in the "Ivory Tower," and shares a satirical rumor about nicotine and caffeine producing protein.* Strong One: The "people's champ," references missing "Dusty" (a recurring figure), and emphasizes his grounded perspective.* Episode Setup: The hosts express readiness to dive into controversial topics with their signature unfiltered style.Segment 1: Marriage and Public Perception (00:02:09 - 00:08:12)* Topic: Marital disputes and public image, with a focus on French President Emmanuel Macron's alleged altercation with his spouse.* Key Points:* The hosts discuss their long marriages (15 and 19 years) and how time flies in a fulfilling relationship.* They pivot to a hypothetical marital dispute scenario, emphasizing the importance of resolving conflicts privately, especially under public scrutiny.* A controversial anecdote about Macron being “manhandled” by his “he-wife” (a derogatory reference to his spouse, Brigitte Macron) before exiting a plane, highlighting the embarrassment of public disputes.* Reference to Candace Owens' podcast, which claims Brigitte Macron is transgender, sparking a discussion about media narratives and public perception.* Comparison to Donald Trump's advice (from an interview with Elon Musk) to resolve disputes before facing the press, contrasting Macron's embarrassment with Trump's media savvy.* Themes:* Public image and political optics.* Gender roles and traditional masculinity.* Criticism of progressive narratives and media manipulation.Segment 2: Atheism and Jordan Peterson's Debate (00:08:12 - 00:29:15)* Topic: Jordan Peterson's debate with 20 atheists and his inability to defend a Christian worldview.* Key Points:* The hosts mock atheists' selective outrage against Christianity (Yahweh) while ignoring other religions like Buddhism or Islam, suggesting atheists target truth (Jesus).* Discussion of Peterson's intellectualism, labeling him a “king of gobbledygook” who relies on psychological archetypes rather than affirming Jesus as the divine truth.* Critique of Peterson's deist stance and failure to embrace Christianity fully, referencing his recent interviews and a podcast with John Rich (of Big & Rich).* The hosts argue that truth and reality are symbiotic, and atheism (like Peterson's intellectualism) abandons both by rejecting God.* Comparison to other intellectuals (e.g., Thomas Sowell, G.K. Chesterton) who critique over-educated “imbecility” and scientism (e.g., Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye).* Anecdote about Destiny (a streamer) taking his son to Auschwitz to counter Holocaust skepticism, illustrating the futility of arguing without a foundation in truth.* Themes:* Rejection of intellectualism without faith.* Defense of Christian truth as the ultimate reality.* Critique of atheism and scientism as grounded in denial.Segment 3: Cultural Shifts in Music and Media (00:21:30 - 00:24:11)* Topic: The decline of positive music and its psychological impact.* Key Points:* The Strong One shares a study claiming 99% of 1980s and 1990s music had positive lyrics (e.g., Def Leppard, Run DMC), compared to only 12% today.* Discussion of how modern music is formulaic, robotic, and degenerate, contributing to cultural decay.* Brief tangent about the hosts' music preferences (grunge, metal, country) and a humorous debate about rap as a “psyop” funded by undisclosed entities.* Themes:* Cultural degradation through media.* Nostalgia for positive cultural influences.* Suspicion of corporate agendas in entertainment.Segment 4: Toxic Masculinity and Political Alienation (01:28:10 - 01:39:19)* Topic: The Democratic Party's alienation of young men and the concept of toxic masculinity.* Key Points:* The hosts argue that Democrats have demonized masculinity, rewarding “feminine” boys and punishing natural male behavior, leading to resentment.* Critique of media and education (unionized, Democratic teachers) for promoting “toxic masculinity” narratives and undermining traditional gender roles.* Discussion of a failed Democratic campaign ad featuring “burly” men supporting Kamala Harris, mocked as inauthentic and “zesty” (a slang term for effeminate behavior).* Assertion that men have a “gaydar” (instinctual disgust toward homosexuality), backed by a cited study claiming 98% of men react negatively to same-sex displays.* Advice to Democrats: To regain male support, they must embrace America-first policies, traditional families, and stop promoting progressive ideals (e.g., abortion, transgenderism).* Themes:* Defense of traditional masculinity.* Political polarization and male disenfranchisement.* Rejection of progressive social policies.Segment 5: Entertainment as a Cultural Wake-Up Call (01:39:19 - 01:46:57)* Topic: The role of entertainment in awakening men to cultural decline.* Key Points:* The hosts pinpoint the “woke” overhaul of entertainment (e.g., Star Wars, Arnold Schwarzenegger's “Screw Your Freedoms” comment) as a turning point for men rejecting progressive narratives.* Examples include Luke Skywalker's emasculation, Rose Tico's arc in The Last Jedi, and sports controversies (e.g., NFL kneeling, pink shoes for breast cancer awareness).* Argument that men initially tolerated progressive changes to please women but rebelled when their heroes were vilified, stripping them of aspirational myths.* Connection to broader cultural hatred of masculinity and Christianity, driving men toward traditional values and faith.* Themes:* Cultural betrayal through entertainment.* Reclamation of masculine archetypes.* Spiritual awakening through cultural pushback.Segment 6: Embracing Christian Extremism and the Overton Window (01:47:00 - 01:58:08)* Topic: Rejecting compromise and embracing a radical Christian identity.* Key Points:* The Strong One declares himself a “right-wing Christian nationalist extremist,” inspired by Kanye West's song “Hail Hitler,” which he interprets as a defiant response to being labeled evil for wanting to see his children.* Critique of the Overton window as skewed toward Satan, with cultural Christianity unfairly demonized by figures like Tim Keller.* Defense of cultural Christianity outside the church as a net positive, preventing societal ills like transgenderism, abortion, and “sodomy” celebration.* Rejection of seeker-sensitive compromise, advocating for unapologetic Christian truth to shame wickedness and restore societal norms.* Examples of being demonized for rejecting COVID narratives (masks, vaccines) and public schools as “dens of Satan.”* Call to run toward Jesus without meeting the world halfway, citing Psalms 4:7-8 for peace and safety in God alone.* Themes:* Uncompromising Christian faith.* Reclamation of cultural Christianity.* Defiance against secular labels and norms.Closing (01:58:08 - 01:59:58)* Prayer (01:58:13): The Philosopher King prays for empowerment to speak truth, avoid cultural Christianity in the church, and foster a national Christian culture through the Holy Spirit.* Outro (01:59:27):* Reiteration of the podcast as the “I Told You Show” and home of the “Rube Empire,” where taxes are voluntary, and the hosts serve Jesus.* Call to action: Like, share, subscribe, buy merchandise, and support the show at Kingsplaining.com.* Sign-off: “Peace out. God bless.”Notable Quotes* “Truth and reality are symbiotic. They have to be together. You can't have truth without reality.” (00:19:15)* “I'm done trying to fit into the Overton window of right and left... I'm an extremist. Cool beans.” (00:52:17)* “I want liberty because that's what Christ died on the cross for. Freedom from sin.” (00:52:26)* “I want some of that cultural Christianity back because you wouldn't have tranny madness.” (00:54:31)* “I'm not meeting you in the middle anymore. You can look at my rear end the whole time.” (00:57:23)Themes and Tone* Core Themes: Defense of traditional masculinity, unapologetic Christian faith, rejection of progressive ideologies, and critique of cultural compromise.* Tone: Provocative, irreverent, and confrontational, with frequent use of humor, sarcasm, and derogatory language to challenge secular norms and “woke” culture.* Target Audience: Conservative Christians, particularly men, who feel alienated by modern societal shifts.Additional Notes* The podcast frequently references pop culture (e.g., Star Wars, Arnold Schwarzenegger) and political figures (e.g., Trump, Macron, Obama) to ground its arguments.* The hosts' self-described “extremism” is framed as a biblical mandate to reject compromise with a sinful world.* The show's unfiltered style is acknowledged as potentially shocking to “normies” (mainstream listeners), with Dusty (a recurring figure) cited as a moderating influence.Support the Show: Visit Kingsplaining.com to subscribe, share, or purchase merchandise.Next Episode: Tune in next week for more unfiltered commentary from the Rube Empire.

Today's daf is sponsored by Batsheva and Daniel Pava. "Eighty-one years ago, on bet Sivan, the deportation of Hungarian Jewry to Auschwitz began. May our learning be dedicated to the memory of my great-grandmother, Raizel, my grandmother, Batsheva bat Yisroel, the Steinmetz and Vegh families of Apsha, and all the Jews of Marmarosh who were murdered in Auschwitz. May their memories be a blessing." Rava rules that one who takes an oath to not eat a loaf of bread, even if they have already eaten most of it, as long as there is still an olive bulk of bread left, the person can go to a chacham to repeal the oath retroactively. How can this case work with both the language of "I will not eat any of it" and "I will not eat it in its entirety"? A source is brought regarding a nazir to raise a contradiction to Rava. However, it is resolved in three possible ways. Ameimar disagrees with Rava and holds that one has even longer to repeal the oath, as long as the punishment has not yet been implemented. Rava explains that if an oath is made with a condition, if the condition is fulfilled without intention, the oath does not take effect. If the person remembers the condition but forgets the oath when eating the forbidden item, one is liable to bring a sacrifice. If the person remembers both the condition and the oath when eating both, and first eats the one fulfilling the condition, they will receive lashes. If the person first eats the forbidden one and then eats the one fulfilling the condition, it is a debate between Rabbi Yochanan and Reish Lakish regarding a warning given in doubt, hatraat safek. Rava continues with another case where a person said that each item is forbidden on condition that they eat the other item. He discusses four possible permutations of what the person did unintentionally and intentionally and explains the law in each case. Rav Meri brings support from a Mishna and braita for Rava's principle in the above cases that if the condition is fulfilled unintentionally, the oath does not go into effect. Avimi asks his brother Eifa about the ruling in different cases of a double/overlapping oath. Each time Eifa answers, Avimi disagrees with Eifa's ruling.

“Hollywood is about as left and progressive a community as there is in this country. And unfortunately, part of the box you have to check in that very left, super progressive space is being anti-Israel and being pro-Palestine in an anti-Israel way,” says Jonah Platt.Platt is a jack of all trades in the entertainment industry—an actor, director, producer, and singer. In the aftermath of the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre of Israelis led by terrorist group Hamas, he launched the podcast “Being Jewish.”He recently visited Auschwitz, the largest German death camp, alongside over a dozen Muslims. He went with the organization Sharaka, which builds on the work of the Abraham Accords and educates Middle Easterners and other Arabs and Muslims around the world about the Holocaust.“Some of these people came on this trip at great personal risk. If you're coming from Pakistan to hang out with Jews in the middle of this Israel-Gaza war, I mean, you could be in real, physical danger. Some people—they couldn't be in any photos and their identities had to be kept secret to protect them,” says Platt. “There were Jewish slaves [at Auschwitz], working out in that kind of rain in threadbare pajamas, starving to death, and having to do physical labor and be shot if they didn't keep up. And meanwhile, I'm freezing in the cold, but I get to go on a warm bus and get a hot meal after this.”In this episode, we discuss how to navigate being Jewish and Zionist in a society that is becoming increasingly hostile to Israel.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.***Disclaimer: One of the producers for American Thought Leaders participated in the Sharaka program to Poland on an all-expenses paid trip.

What if the horrors of Auschwitz weren't a historical exception—but part of a global pattern we refuse to name? Andrea Pitzer joins Frank Schaeffer to expose the uncomfortable truth behind her book One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps. From colonial Cuba to contemporary detentions, we trace the chilling evolution of mass civilian imprisonment—and how democracies, not just dictatorships, are to blame. This is the history we're living again. Listen in before the memory fades._____LINKShttps://andreapitzer.comhttps://www.lovechildrenplanet.com/events/in-conversation-with-frank-schaeffer-andrea-pitzerI have had the pleasure of talking to some of the leading authors, artists, activists, and change-makers of our time on this podcast, and I want to personally thank you for subscribing, listening, and sharing 100-plus episodes over 100,000 times.Please subscribe to this Podcast, In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer, on your favorite platform, and to my Substack, It Has to Be Said.

El actor, director y productor teatral Sergio Peris-Mencheta cuenta como le ha cambiado, por dentro y por fuera, la enfermedad que sufrió hace apenas un año y que relata en su libro "730 días" editado por planeta. Esas noches oscuras del alma que le han hecho darse cuenta de que, a pesar de que lo tenía todo, no era feliz. "Yo no quería ser el bestia, el grande, el malo de las pelis. Yo quería ser Hamlet, yo quería ser James Dean. yo quería ser Paul Newman". "Ahora me encuentro en un momento de mi vida de redescubrirme, de volver a pasar por, quien en algún momento fui de niño". Además nos invita a ver su nueva obra teatral "Blaubereen" que llegará a los teatros del Canal en Madrid el 5 de junio y estará hasta el 29 del mismo mes con una historia sobre Auschwitz, el campo más letal, donde nos hace reflexionar sobre la banalidad del mal. 

Seit wenigen Jahren gedenkt das EU-Parlament jeweils mit einer speziellen Erinnerungsfeier der Opfer des Holocaust. Dieses Jahr mit einem besonderen «Gast»: Dem Cello des Holocaust-Opfers Pàl Hermann. Überall in Europa nimmt der Antisemitismus stark zu. Die Terrorangriffe der Hamas vom 7. Oktober 2023 und die massive militärische Reaktion Israels im Gazastreifen haben diesen Trend verstärkt. Drei-Viertel der europäischen Jüdinnen und Juden verbergen darum zumindest gelegentlich ihre jüdische Identität. Der stete Kampf gegen Antisemitismus sei untrennbar mit dem aktiven Erinnern an den Holocaust verbunden, unterstrich bereits die erste Frau an der Spitze des Europäischen Parlaments, die Französin Simone Veil, selbst eine Holocaust-Überlebende. Im Zentrum der Erinnerungsfeier an den Holocaust im EU-Parlament standen 80 Jahre nach der Befreiung der Deportierten im Vernichtungslager in Auschwitz für einmal nicht Zeitzeuginnen, sondern ein Instrument: Das Cello des Holocaust-Opfers Pàl Hermann. Dieses Instrument, untrennbar verbunden mit dem jungen jüdischen Musiker und Komponisten, steht für die Unbesiegbarkeit der Musik. Pàl Hermann wurde von der Hitler-Diktatur umgebracht. Das Cello wurde gerettet, weil der Cellist eine Notiz aus dem Güterwagen werfen konnte, in dem er deportiert wurde. In dieser aussergewöhnlichen Geschichte hat ein Cello den Holocaust überlebt - und wird zum klingenden Stolperstein gegen das Vergessen.

In the shadow of the tragic murder of two young Israeli diplomats, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, who dedicated their lives to peace, we confront the heart-wrenching questions: Are we still the Chosen People? Can we still believe in humanity when humanity seems to fall apart? This week's Torah portion, Bechukotai, addresses blessings and brutal curses, followed by the surprising laws of erchin, evaluating human worth. From this strange juxtaposition, Chassidic masters draw a powerful truth: even after unspeakable loss, the value of a human soul remains eternal and divine. Through stories of survival and sacred resistance, from Auschwitz to Washington D.C. we rediscover that our calling is not diminished by darkness, but rather revealed by it. This class is dedicated to the memory of Yaron and Sarah, may G-d avenge their blood. Takeaways:The antidote to darkness is dignity. The Torah teaches us that even after curses, we must return to affirming the value of each soul.Giving heals. The symbolic 143 shekel of erchin counters the 143 curses, showing the power of charity and sacred commitment.Pain does not diminish worth. Jewish identity is not dependent on external conditions. We remain chosen not despite suffering, but in how we respond to it.A moral education saves lives. The solution to violence isn't only policy—it's character, conscience, and responsibility to G-d.We rise because we remember. From the bloodied streets of exile to the halls of peace diplomacy, the Jewish soul remembers who it is and why it's here.#YaronLischinsky #SarahMilgrim #Torah #Bible #BibleStudy #TorahLessons #TorahPortion #Bechukotai #MoralResponsibility #Chosen #Kabbalah #Sermon #Israel #Antisemitism #chosenpeople #humanworth Join us for a special evening exploring:•⁠ ⁠The rise and trials of David HaMelech as told in Tanach•⁠ ⁠What Kabbalah and classical commentaries reveal behind the scenesRSVP HERE https://ndg.chabadsuite.net/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=77Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Theologian and First Things editor R.R. Reno joins The Winston Marshall Show for a sweeping intellectual conversation on nationalism, identity, and the postwar consensus that still haunts the West.Reno argues that the true crisis isn't a conspiracy—but a consensus forged after WWII: a fear of nationalism, religion, and moral conviction, shaped by the horrors of Auschwitz and Hiroshima. He calls this the age of “weak gods”—a culture hollowed out by relativism, therapeutic liberalism, and meaning without truth.From Karl Popper and the Open Society to the cult of DEI and the rise of populist rebellion, Reno makes the case that Western civilization is suffering from a kind of civilizational PTSD—and that only the return of “strong gods” like loyalty, love, and faith can offer redemption.All this—postwar ideology, the collapse of civic trust, mass migration, shared mythos, and the spiritual malaise of modern life…-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 00:00 Introduction 1:49 Populism and Its Global Phenomenon 4:32 The Return of Strong Gods 21:58 Karl Popper's "The Open Society and Its Enemies" 28:29 The Impact of Post-War Consensus on Education 47:33 The Return of Strong Gods and the Role of Love 1:09:32 The Role of Religion and Spirituality in Society 1:14:37 The Impact of Popper's Ideas on Conservatism 1:18:31 Loyalty and Fanaticism in Sports and Society 1:21:15 Nationalism vs. Patriotism 1:23:15 Censorship and the Never Again Mentality1:27:54 The Death Throes of the Open Society Consensus 1:33:41 The Role of Strong Gods in Non-Western Countries 1:37:32 The Paradox of Western Ideologies 1:38:21 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Hosted on Acast.
