SUB TO THE PPM PATREON SO KLONNY GOSCH'S CORK BOARD LABOR OF LOVE CAN CONT FOR ANOTHER 100 EPISODES (AND GAIN ACCESS TO "SYSTEME ZAHAROFF II"):patreon.com/ParaPowerMappingIN CELEBRATION OF 100 EPISODES OF PPM, I am joined by SEBBE for a synchronized dive into the wilderness of mirrors that is the Balkans-trotting, death-peddling life of Basil Zaharoff, "the mystery man of Europe" whose blood money fortune rivaled those of Rockefeller and Henry Ford. We excavate how Zaharoff was a prototypical deep political figure foreshadowing more modern underworld ne'er-do-wells and sex-crazed arms traders like Jeffrey Epstein, Adnan Kashoggi, Viktor Bout, Sarkis Soghanalian, Efraim Diveroli, Robert Maxwell, etc. We also draw a number of Erik Jan Hanussen symmetries, convenient considering a likely candidate for a character partly patterned after him in Shadow Ticket.This is the first entry in the SCIF SESSIONS featuring past guests, friends, and Cork Board Cadre members. I initially planned to release a monster episode in call-in special style, but as I got a number of sessions under my belt, it became apparent that a 20 hour or so episode would be prohibitive. So instead, I will be dropping the conversations in discrete installments in between our regular programming. Lots of great material coming at you.File under: parallels with our Shadow Ticket exegesis by way of Zedzed's relationship with British intelligence and Viennese manse, which evoke MI3b agents Pips and Alf Quarrender; Zaharoff's ward Tereza Damala's amorous relations with Gabriele d'Annunzio also evoking ST; his remote cameo in Against the Day via purchasing agent Viktor Mulciber, who is pursuing the Q-Weapon at Zaharoff's behest (which harnesses time as means of violence), his latter attempts to sell it to the Japanese, and Clive Crouchmas' thwarted scheme to sex traffick the scarlet strumpet Dahlia Rideout to the Lord of War, a bribe seeking to tempt his fabled appetite for redheaded Babalonian women; Hergé, Tintin, and Basil Bazarov lampooning the int'l man of mystery; the varying accounts of Zaharoff's early life and heritage, whether Greek, Turkish, Russian Jew, etc. etc.; his criminal adolescence as a member of an arsonry gang cum fire department, a racket in Constantinople where they would burn down wealthy homes and extort payment and which is right on theme with our recent history of class violence, organized crime, racketeering, and transformismo; his time as a brothel tout; human trafficker in Galway, Ireland, sending girls to MasSUSchusetts textile mills; bigamist marrying a dame in Philly; confidence artist; etc.; there are myriad legends, some of which we'll unpack in Pt. II; all trails eventually merge with Zaharoff's employment as a Nordenfelt machine gun salesman; which leads to his relationship with machine gun manufacturer Hiram Maxim; the Rothschilds connection; PM David Lloyd George; negotiations to bribe the Young Turks and Enver Pasha into abandoning the Central Powers circa WWI; and much much more. I am doing my best to ward off burnt-outage, but I think that is sufficient for liner notes for this second. A second part, solo, and with some research revolving around a possible outcropping of the Zaharoff network amounting to a Nazi - Z i o n i s t gun running ring in Palestine in the late '30s and which I'm actually quite giddy over and which may well be relatively novel and which certainly expands upon past points of interest... will follow in the morning.

In this episode I chat with Ranko Cerić in Zagreb to explore how economics, trauma and identity shape the Balkans and the rest of Europe today. We look at how Yugoslavia fell apart, why ordinary people can be pushed into fear and extremism, and how current migration and cost-of-living pressures are creating similar tensions in the West. We also get into land, belonging and the dysregulation that comes with cultural dislocation. A grounded, honest conversation about what really drives division - and what might help us move beyond it.

Wir haben gemeinsam auf YouTube die Serie "Das Pulverfass Balkan" diskutiert. Hier ist das Ergebnis.

Beaucoup de pays du continent européen sont frappés par l'exode de leur jeunesse. C'est vrai y compris au sein de l'Union européenne, mais la situation est encore plus critique dans les pays voisins. En particulier dans les Balkans. Des jeunes en quête d'une vie meilleure... À Trebinje, petite ville du sud de la Bosnie-Herzégovine, le marasme économique et le clientélisme mafieux ont eu raison de l'espoir de la jeune génération. Lors de l'élection présidentielle de fin novembre 2025, les jeunes de cette commune de Republika serbska, tenue par le parti du nationaliste pro-russe Dodik, ont déserté les bureaux de vote, et ils n'aspirent qu'à quitter le pays. Reportage, Louis Seiller. En Italie, cela fait plus de trente ans que les responsables politiques parlent de «fuite des cerveaux» pour qualifier l'exode des jeunes. Car même dans la troisième économie de l'UE, ils sont très nombreux à partir. Mais l'expression ne rend pas pleinement compte du phénomène, qui touche tous les profils de jeunes, et toutes les régions du pays. Les explications de Cécile Debarge,   ...sur une planète vivable Pour préserver l'environnement, humains et animaux travaillent parfois de concert : c'est le cas au Royaume-Uni, dans la New Forest. Une forêt communale pas vraiment nouvelle : elle a été créée au XIè siècle par Guillaume le Conquérant pour servir de terrain de chasse. Mais ce territoire de plus de 500 km2 est aussi un immense lieu de pâturage pour les fermiers locaux. Appelés les Commoners, ces fermiers doivent adhérer à des traditions très anciennes qui ont des atouts indéniables pour lutter contre la dégradation des écosystèmes. Reportage, Marie Billon. Et les océans ? Des scientifiques ont annoncé récemment la redécouverte d'une baleine parmi les plus rares au monde, jamais observée vivante jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Une excellente nouvelle pour les défenseurs de l'environnement, car les baleines et autres cétacés sont de précieux régulateurs des écosystèmes marins. Pourtant, malgré les risques d'extinction, quelques pays autorisent encore la pêche des cétacés : la Norvège, le Japon et l'Islande. Mais Reykjavik a suspendu cette activité pour la deuxième année consécutive. Les explications de Clémence Pénard, de retour d'Islande.

Europe responds with caution to the latest peace-push in Ukraine. We'll be looking at the EU's military mobility plans and what Ukraine can teach Europe about total defence. Also on the show: Sir Nicholas Winton and the Kindertransport, the second coming of Milorad Dodik, Turkey's Balkans ambitions and fast-fashion vs wooly jumpers.

The Cold War ended, but crises kept coming. This episode opens in the Balkans, where Yugoslavia's breakup pulls Marines into a different mission. Offshore in the Adriatic, they fly strikes, launch rescues, and put infantry ashore as refugee camps, no-fly zones, and patrols blur the line between war and relief. From there, the story follows deployments to Haiti, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Albania, and East Timor, where Marines secure embassies, evacuate civilians, and support coalitions trying to hold together collapsing states. Then 9/11 hits, and the long war begins. Task Force 58 pushes hundreds of miles inland to seize Rhino and Kandahar, proving sea-based Marines can operate inside a landlocked country. The chapter ends in Helmand, in places like Garmsir, Now Zad, and the Ganjgal Valley, where patrol bases, IEDs, and hard lessons define a war with no clean finish.

Mit dem Übersetzen osmanischer Truppen über den Hellespont beginnt im 14. Jahrhundert eine Entwicklung, die den Balkan dauerhaft umformt. Gemeinsam mit dem Historiker Ralf Grabuschnig vom Déjà-vu Geschichte-Podcast zeigen wir wie aus ersten Stützpunkten ein stabiles Herrschaftsgefüge entsteht: durch die Einbindung lokaler Eliten, neue Verwaltungs- und Militärstrukturen sowie tiefgreifende soziale und religiöse Veränderungen. So entsteht ein vielschichtiger politischer Raum, in dem alte und neue Ordnungen ineinandergreifen – eine Dynamik, die die Region bis in die Neuzeit prägt.Ralf und Déjà-vu Geschichte findet ihr unter: https://ralfgrabuschnig.com/deja-vu-geschichte-podcast/Die aktuelle Staffel "Pulverfass Balkan" findet mit der Folge: Nicht West nicht Ost.

Sandro Šutalo braucht mehrere Stunden, um sich in die Figur Sara Jevo zu verwandeln. Aber inzwischen ist sie ein Teil von ihm, nicht einfach nur eine Rolle. Für seine neuste Bühnenproduktion „Miss Sara Jevo“ am Nationaltheater Mannheim ist der Schauspieler in seine alte Heimatstadt Sarajevo gefahren, die er als kleines Kind wegen des Bosnien-Kriegs verlassen musste. Der Solo-Abend verhandelt Themen wie Nationalismus, Männlichkeitsideale, Queerfeindlichkeit und Heimatgefühle - mal nachdenklich, mal mit schrillem und derben Humor.

It's our monthly chat about The Feminine Frequency with Jennifer and Theresa! Joining us today in conversation is Liridona Duraku, a first generation Albanian American. She currently lives in the Hudson Valley and spends most of her time outdoors studying the local fauna. Liri received a BA from CUNY York in Journalism and Political Science but found herself working in mostly activist spaces. She has a professional background in the food industry, farming and hospitality. Recently she did further study as a special student at SUNY New Paltz studying art and psychology.Liri is also an herbalist. As a child, herbal remedies and natural medicine was part of her upbringing, she often heard stories of women healers and even got to know a few. She blends her ancestral Balkan knowledge with the various herbal trainings she has done. She has studied with Vanessa Chakour of Sacred Warrior in Brooklyn and Scotland, Clinical Alchemy with Evolutionary Herbalism, Ayurveda with Tribe Yoga in Rishikesh, India, Astro-Herbalism with Judith Hill and Wild Gather in the Hudson Valley.Liri has published fiction and non-fiction writing and shown work in small local galleries. Her work is primarily oil paintings, charcoal  and pastel drawings but recently has been playing in forms of ceramics and sculpture of various materials. She draws inspiration from her experience of diaspora, a child of (non-documented) immigrants fleeing war and ethnic cleansing. She brings in imagery, ritual and mysticism of Balkan culture and themes of plants, animals, folklore, myth and magic can be seen throughout her work.Today we get to hear about what Land Divination is and how Liri began communicating with the land and its many occupants. The conversation weaves through some of the practical, and often the magical of being in right relationship to the land, plants and animals. She offers monthly Earth Oracle readings and Land Divination workshops at Spiral Mirror in Kingston, NY, as well as an online Land Divination course. You can find her paintings, ceramic work and herbal potions for sale on her website as well as at Pink Clementine in Kerhonkson, NY, Feast and Floret in Hudson, NY and soon at Holding Space in Kingston, NY. Liri offers private reading and ritual sessions as well as custom aura paintings.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Michele Levy, author of the book Anna's Dance. Born a Yankee in Providence, Rhode Island, after seven years in Boston, she moved with her family to Wisconsin and Northern Virginia. Then she continued the southern trend with graduate studies in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and followed her Brooklyn-born husband even farther south, to New Orleans. Twenty-six years later, they traded the Superdome (seven minutes away from their house by car) for the North Carolina woods. This wandering stripped away her Boston accent, leaving a tendency to enunciate clearly that made New Orleanians think she was from England.   From the age of four she has played classical piano and read voraciously. But an exposure to Balkan dance in high school kindled what became a life-long passion. Still, her love for D. H. Lawrence and Dostoevsky led her to a PhD in Comparative Literature (English, French, Russian), and then to universities, where she taught, researched, and became a chair. Though she first published on Russian and European authors, her academic interest shifted to the Balkans. She wrote on Balkan history and literature and returned to the region (she'd first visited in 1968) in 2000, after the end of the Bosnian War, and 2002, invited by the Serbian Writers' Association. By then she'd begun to write poetry and stories with Balkan settings. Anna's Dance grew from her deep engagement with Balkan history and culture.   These days, she plays piano and reads, but mostly she writes. She's working on a novel about a Bosnian asylee in New Orleans. Carolina's nature nurtures her, she and her husband enjoy their three children and seven grandchildren, who have moved nearby, and she still does Balkan dance!   In my book review, I stated Anna's Dance: A Balkan Odyssey is a beautiful Jewish historical fiction novel. I once again found myself wondering what history I was taught in school because I knew next to nothing about Balkan history, even as it related to WWII. This book helped me fill in several gaps in my knowledge.   We meet Anna Rossi, an early 20's girl on a journey through the Balkan region. She starts out with one set of plans and moves to another, then another, and then another, finding herself learning more and more about prejudice and suffering. She sees a strong correlation to her own Jewish heritage - how minority suppression can lead to horrible end results, including violence.   As Anna travels, she grows from a silly girl to an experienced woman who knows her place in the world. Eventually, she learns to embrace her heritage and all that encompasses. I found the book to be quite beautiful in the telling and very relevant to our day.   Author Note: There are some sexual scenes - a couple that were a bit graphic for my taste. However, overall, these scenes were not gratuitous but helped the reader understand where Anna was in her journey.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Michele Levy Website: www.micheleflevy.com.

Episode: 00294 Released on November 24, 2025 Description: In this episode, Jason Elder sits down with Phil Powell, Vice President of IALEIA, longtime FIAT instructor, international advisor, and one of the most globally experienced intelligence professionals in the field. With more than forty years of service across the United Kingdom, the Balkans, Jamaica, and the United Nations, Phil shares rare insights into building intelligence units from the ground up, applying analytical fundamentals under extreme conditions, and navigating the evolving relationship between technology, artificial intelligence, and human judgment. Phil reflects on the post conflict environment in Kosovo, the early development of intelligence led policing in the United Kingdom, the rapid rise of analyst capacity in Jamaica, and what it truly takes to create an environment where analysts can succeed. He explains the core traits that endure in the profession, including adaptability, critical thinking, discipline, and clear communication. He emphasizes that even in a world filled with automation, the human analyst remains essential. Phil also offers practical guidance to new analysts and experienced practitioners, discusses the future direction of IALEIA, and closes with an encouraging message for anyone committed to the growth of the profession.

Dix ans après la transformation spectaculaire qu'a connue la capitale de la Macédoine du Nord avec le projet «Skopje 2014», retour dans la ville parmi une statuaire fantomatique et un projet nationaliste qui hante encore le pays… Au cœur des Balkans, la Macédoine du Nord est un petit pays au nom longtemps disputé et au territoire convoité depuis des siècles. Située entre la Grèce, l'Albanie, la Serbie, le Kosovo et la Bulgarie, cette jeune nation issue de l'éclatement de l'ex-Yougoslavie de Tito est encore largement méconnue ; mais sa capitale Skopje a fait, un temps, il y a 10 ans, la Une de la presse internationale.  « Disney des Balkans, capitale du kitsch, Disney nationaliste… » :  les qualificatifs, parfois railleurs, souvent critiques, ne manquaient pas pour désigner le nouveau visage que la ville a offert au monde et aux Skopjiotes, à travers le projet «Skopje 2014». Cette opération ruineuse de rénovation urbanistique du centre-ville était alors portée par la droite nationaliste au pouvoir. Son ambition : redessiner l'identité macédonienne à coups de statues antiques géantes avec, au centre, la figure d'Alexandre Le Grand, de galion amarré le long des rives du Vardar qui traverse la ville ou de monuments néo-classiques ou néo-baroques, aux accents propagandistes. En 2014, une blague courait d'ailleurs les rues de Skopje : «Attention, si tu restes plus de 5 minutes au même endroit sans bouger, tu vas te transformer en statue ». Ce n'est certes pas nouveau que l'urbanisme est une arme pour le pouvoir et les nations boursouflées ; mais à Skopje, dix ans après ce vaste programme, que reste-t-il aujourd'hui de cette vision mégalomaniaque ? Comment les habitants ont-ils appris à vivre parmi ces façades pompeuses et ces places devenues musées d'elles-mêmes ? Comment certains artistes opposés au projet, cherchent-ils, aujourd'hui comme hier, à le déjouer et dire autrement le pays métissé, traversé d'influences qu'ils habitent ? Un reportage de Sibylle d'Orgeval à Skopje.   En savoir plus :   - Sur l'actualité des Balkans et notamment celle de la Macédoine du Nord, allez voir la Revue de presse des Balkans de RFI, préparé par les équipes du «Courrier des Balkans», l'indispensable portail francophone des Balkans - Sur les expressions artistiques et l'humour autour du projet Skopje 2014, un article de 2016 d'Aleksandar Takovski. En anglais - Sur le rapport de Transparency International Macedonia sur le projet Skopje 2014. Publié en 2018. En anglais - Sur l'institut français de Skopje - Sur les deux reportages que nous avions consacrés en 2015 à la Macédoine aujourd'hui dite du Nord.

Across the globe, memorial and grave sites are being increasingly weaponized in conflicts and politicized by parties to advance agendas. Here, Carol S. Lilly examines ideas of death, politics, memory, ideology and nationalism in the former Yugoslav republics of Bosnia & Hercegovina, Croatia, and Serbia to shine fresh light on cemetery culture in 20th-century Europe.More specifically, Death and Burial in Socialist Yugoslavia: The Politicization of Cemeteries and Ethnic Conflict in the Balkans (Bloomsbury, 2024) argues that while the CPY created its own communities of the dead in postwar Partisan Cemeteries, it failed to do the same for civilian cemeteries in ways that might reinforce its ideals of secularism, pluralism, and brotherhood and unity. Moreover, the communist regime left the previous system of ethno-religious segregation in place, further isolating Catholics, Orthodox, Muslims and Jews who continued to be buried in separate locations. Finally, it explicitly politicized burial rites and grave markers, making cemeteries into legitimate spaces of political discourse.As a result, by the time Yugoslavia disintegrated in the early 1990s, dead bodies and cemeteries had become a concerted weapon of war in the ongoing ethnic conflict. Ultimately, then, this timely study reveals for the first time the extent to which the communist regime not only failed to created their own communities of the dead but also further divided and alienated living communities in Yugoslavia.

Forget the usual holiday cheer and dive into the chilling world of Christmas folklore with the terrifying Karakoncolos (also known as Kallikantzaros).These malevolent, shapeshifting, hairy winter goblins emerge exclusively during the Twelve Dark Days, the treacherous period between Christmas (December 25th) and Epiphany (January 6th), to wreak havoc across the Balkans. We uncover the sinister origins of this enduring European myth, tracing it back to the drunken, masked chaos of the ancient Dionysian festivals in Greece, and reveal their terrifying cosmic purpose: spending all year sawing down the World Tree!Join us as we explore the chilling regional differences:Greek Myth: Why do the Kallikantzaros try to force travelers to dance to death?Turkish Folklore: Learn the deadly verbal trickery of the Karakoncolos, which requires you to always use the word "kara" (black) or risk instant death.Bulgarian Tradition: How the Karakondžul's influence gave rise to the massive, UNESCO-recognized Kukeri festivals.We detail the bizarre protective rituals, from burning stinky shoes and scattering salt to the crucial act of counting holes in a sieve, used to keep these holiday horror creatures out of your home.

Lilly examines ideas of death, politics, memory, ideology and nationalism in the former Yugoslav republics of Bosnia & Hercegovina, Croatia, and Serbia to shine fresh light on cemetery culture in 20th-century Europe.More specifically, Death and Burial in Socialist Yugoslavia: The Politicization of Cemeteries and Ethnic Conflict in the Balkans (Bloomsbury, 2024) argues that while the CPY created its own communities of the dead in postwar Partisan Cemeteries, it failed to do the same for civilian cemeteries in ways that might reinforce its ideals of secularism, pluralism, and brotherhood and unity. Moreover, the communist regime left the previous system of ethno-religious segregation in place, further isolating Catholics, Orthodox, Muslims and Jews who continued to be buried in separate locations. Finally, it explicitly politicized burial rites and grave markers, making cemeteries into legitimate spaces of political discourse.As a result, by the time Yugoslavia disintegrated in the early 1990s, dead bodies and cemeteries had become a concerted weapon of war in the ongoing ethnic conflict. Ultimately, then, this timely study reveals for the first time the extent to which the communist regime not only failed to created their own communities of the dead but also further divided and alienated living communities in Yugoslavia.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Lya Badgley, author of the book The Thirty-Fifth Page. Lya Badgley was born in Yangon, Myanmar, to Montana parents—a political scientist and an artist—who sparked her lifelong love of creativity and critical thought. After moving to the Pacific Northwest in the 1980s, she became part of Seattle's arts and music scene. In the 1990s, she returned to Southeast Asia as a videographer documenting interviews with Burmese insurgents, then went on to lead Cornell University's Archival Project at Cambodia's Tuol Sleng Museum, preserving evidence used to prosecute war crimes. She later opened the 50th Street Bar & Grill in Yangon—one of the first foreign-owned businesses of its kind at the time.   Lya writes internationally set fiction that blends suspense with cultural nuance, exploring women's journeys through landscapes shaped by historical legacy, grief, and transformation.   Her debut novel, The Foreigner's Confession (2022), set in Cambodia, was a finalist for the Nancy Pearl Award for Best Fiction. Her second, The Worth of a Ruby (2023), set in Myanmar, was also honored as a finalist for multiple international awards. She now lives outside Seattle, Washington in the United States, and is excited to release her third novel, The Thirty-Fifth Page—a gothic-tinged literary suspense set in Bosnia.   In my book review, I stated The Thirty Fifth Page is a literary suspense laden with magical realism and a dash of historical fiction. Miri is a researcher whose specialty is medieval manuscripts. She flies to Bosnia to study the Sarajevo Haggadah, an illustrated Jewish text of the Passover Seder housed at the National Museum. Unfortunately, Sarajevo is on the brink of war, so Miri has to work quickly.   As she works, she believes the Haggadah has strange powers. Before she can figure it out, war breaks out, and the Haggadah is lost. But when it finally returns to its place of honor at the museum, it has a new page. And she is called back to find out why. This thirty-fifth page merges history and folklore, putting Miri and those she cares deeply about into the middle of an ancient curse.   I loved going on this adventure with Miri as she tries to figure out who she is and what she wants in the world. I also loved seeing how the past directly affects our present and future - and how we pass that on from generation to generation.   You are definitely going to love this new novel by Lya Badgley!   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Lya Badgley Website: https://lyabadgley.com/ FB: @lyabadgleyauthor IG: @lyabadgleyauthor   Purchase The Thirty-Fifth Page on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/3JBzcpP Ebook: https://amzn.to/4q5ai1W   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

Send us a textIn this first episode after the reconquest of Constantinople we see the retaliation that was planned for the Greeks in the form of a Crusade. Charles of Anjou prepares a mighty army in Sicily to invade the Balkans and capture the city of Constantinople from the Nicaeans. But Emperor Michael Palaiologos was ready for this, and used his network of spies to encourage rebellion amongst the local Sicilians, and by the Grace of God, the island rebelled against he French in what has become known to history as the Sicilian Vesper Revolution.Here is a link to see the Sicilian Vesper Flag, in use during one of the Sicilian Independence Marches.https://youtu.be/QoozWKTBq1k?si=y_CRIXH1F7UxFnttThe History of Modern Greece Podcast covers the events from Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire, and the fall of Constantinople in 1453, to the years under the Ottoman Empire, and 1821 when the Greeks fought for independence... all the way to the modern-day.Website: www.moderngreecepodcast.comSOCIAL MEDIA: Go here to chat with us. https://www.instagram.com/historyofmodern%20greece/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578023316172Music by Mark Jungerman: www.marcjungermann.comCheck out our 2nd Podcast: www.antecedors.com

As Italy advances into Egypt, Britain quietly prepares its first major offensive — Operation Compass — in this tense buildup episode. We explore the friction between Churchill's impatient push for victory and General Wavell's insistence on realistic desert readiness, while massive reinforcements arrive: Matilda tanks, armored regiments, artillery, and supplies all vital to a bold strike through the Enba Gap. You'll also see how Italy's disastrous invasion of Greece shifts British priorities — from Egypt to the Balkans — with far-reaching consequences. This is the quiet storm before Operation Compass, where logistics, terrain, and leadership clash in the desert — setting the stage for one of WWII's most consequential early battles.

Außenminister Johann Wadephul weilte bis zum 19. November auf einer mehrtägigen Reise durch die Staaten des westlichen Balkans. In diesem Zusammenhang erwähnte der Sprecher des Auswärtigen Amtes insbesondere eine engere Zusammenarbeit mit Serbien und betonte: „Für uns steht fest, dass der Westbalkan ein Teil der europäischen Familie ist“.

Yoghurt is the most diverse section of the dairy case: from Icelandic skyr to creamy Australian, and fruity French Yoplait to full-fat Greek. With something to suit every palate, plus a dose of microbes to support healthy digestion, yoghurt is a staple food in the US, hero of a million smoothies, berry bowls, and snack breaks every day. Which is why it's pretty weird that, until about 50 years ago, most Americans had no idea what it was. This episode, we've got the story of the microbial miracle (and ants?) that gave us yoghurt, as well as the secret connection between those heat-loving bacteria and the evolution of lactose tolerance. Plus, for most of history, yoghurt was wildly popular in large parts of the world—the Middle East, the Balkans, Caucasus, much of Asia, and the Indian subcontinent—and totally unknown elsewhere. Even the promise that yoghurt would cure old age, made by a Nobel prize-winning scientist, couldn't persuade Americans to eat it. So how did yoghurt finally capture the hearts of Americans? Listen in now for the little-known story of our curious relationship with this creamy concoction. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”Beauty isn't a filter on life; it's a way to understand it, and ourselves. Jack sits down with Artist-photographer and author Erik Stensland to explore how a season of crushing burnout in the Balkans led him toward solitude, quiet attention, and a life reoriented by wonder in Rocky Mountain National Park. Together we unpack why silence feels unbearable at first, why many of us would rather hit the metaphorical shock button than face our inner world, and how a simple practice—ten phone-free minutes in a forest—can begin to settle the mind. Eric explains the difference between loneliness and chosen solitude, and how beauty, understood as goodness rather than glamour, becomes a practical guide for daily decisions. We also dive into desire: not suppressing it, not indulging it, but tracing it to the deeper longing for meaning, belonging, and purpose.If environmental news leaves you frozen, EriK offers a third path beyond doom and denial. Inspired by John Muir, he shows how falling in love with places fuels lasting care and healing... paying attention, telling small stories, buying less.Ready to test it for yourself? Put the phone away, take a quiet walk, and notice one true thing. If this conversation moves you, follow, share with a friend who needs a breath of fresh air, and leave a review so more people can find their way back to beauty.Visit Erik and Purchase "The Journey Beyond, Learning to Live Beautifully in a Troubled World" and the shipping is free:)Read Jack's Latest "Directing Our Passions and Desires to a Love that is Beautiful" Here are the links to Jack's Substack and  X https://x.com/JP2RenewalCheck out the Podcast on YouTubeContact me: info@jp2renew.orgSupport the show

Veckans avsnitt är både spännande och gripande. Vi berättar om de jugoslaviska krigsfångar som försökte fly från nazisternas arbetsläger i Nordnorge – fångar som tvingades välja mellan en nästan säker död i lägren och den livsfarliga chansen att ta sig över fjällen till Sverige.Dödligheten i lägren var extrem. Den som överlevde två vintrar i Nordnorge gjorde det mot alla odds. Därför började fångar av många nationaliteter – polacker, ryssar, jugoslaver – att riskera allt. Trasiga, utmärglade och trasor till kläder tog de sig genom snöstorm och mörker. De som inte blev kvar på fjällen kom till slut stapplande in på sjukstugan i Arjeplog.I centrum för vårt avsnitt står den unge Veljko Popovic från Belgrad. Vi följer honom från barndomen på Balkan, genom helvetet vid Rognan – och vidare på den desperata flykten över fjällvärlden mot friheten i Sverige.Läslista:Hansson, Lars, Flykten i norr: flyktingströmmarna från Finland och Nordnorge 1944–45, Första utgåvan, Irene Publishing, 2022.Popovic, Velimir, Veljkos minnen: en serbisk bondpojkes minnen av arbete, fest, attentat, fångläger, frihet och fred 1930–1945, Nomen förlag, 2018.Dulić, Tomislav, ”De plågade oss som om de ville döda oss”.

State Builders from the Steppe: A History of the First Bulgarian Empire (This is RETHINK, 2025) explores how the Proto-Bulgarians were able to build both an empire and an identity amidst the turmoil of the Balkans in the Early Middle Ages. From creating the Cyrillic Alphabet and crowning the first ever Tsar to defeating the first Arab invasion of Europe and nearly conquering the last vestiges of the Roman Empire, the history of the First Bulgarian Empire is equal parts fascinating and dramatic.

Accents d'Europe se penche sur les conséquences des attentats qui ont fait, il y a tout juste dix ans, 132 morts et 350 blessés. Les pires attentats commis sur le sol français, revendiqués par Daech. Nous parlerons du retour des jihadistes en Europe, au plus fort de l'État islamique en Irak et en Syrie, on comptait 5 à 6 000 combattants européens. On se penchera aussi sur les nouvelles législations sécuritaires en France. Et sur la collaboration entre la justice et la police française et belge. Car c'est bien de Bruxelles que les attentats ont été organisés, et la capitale belge a servi de base arrière... Il a donc fallu mettre en place une intense collaboration de part et d'autre de la frontière, comme nous l'explique l'un de nos correspondants Jean-Jacques Hery.     Le retour des jihadistes dans les Balkans Et selon le spécialiste du jihadisme, Hugo Micheron, une centaine de milliers de prisonniers sont toujours détenus dans des camps dans le nord de la Syrie. Des hommes, des femmes et des enfants parfois nés en Europe qui demandent à revenir. C'est dans les Balkans occidentaux qu'ils sont le plus nombreux à obtenir un droit au retour. Ce qui n'est pas sans poser des questions sur la montée du salafisme. État des lieux avec notre correspondant dans la région, Louis Seiller.     Un réseau de mariage pour permettre l'évasion des femmes jihadistes Et c'est souvent via la Turquie que les combattants européens ont rejoint la Syrie et le groupe terroriste. Parmi eux, des femmes, parfois des enfants... Mais à mesure que le pseudo-califat de Daech perdait du terrain, puis après sa chute en 2019, des dizaines de milliers de ces femmes et enfants ont été placés dans des camps, celui d'Al Hol et Roj au nord-est de la Syrie. La journaliste turque Hale Gönültas, souvent menacée de mort par l'organisation, a enquêté sur les réseaux d'évasion des prisonnières jihadistes. Certaines arrivent à s'échapper grâce au mariage à distance. Notre correspondante Anne Andlauer lui a demandé comment ça fonctionnait.     La revue de presse européenne et sonore de Franceline Beretti Comment les médias européens reviennent sur ces attentats.

During the First World War, most of the attention, at least in the West, was focused on the Western Front.  However, the Western Front was not the only front in the war. There were actually multiple fronts, including the Middle East, Africa, the Balkans, and Italy. However, the largest of these non-Western fronts was in the East. In a front extending from the Baltic to the Black Sea. The war in the East was almost as brutal as in the West, with casualties almost as high.  Learn more about the Eastern Front in World War I on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
