Die Folge #34 des Podcasts «WE LOVE HANDBALL – Der Podcast von Handballworld», präsentiert von der CONCORDIA und unterstützt von SPAR Schweiz, mit David Graubner, Geschäftsführer der Kadetten Schaffhausen, und Lukas Troxler, Geschäftsführer des HC Kriens-Luzern, sowie Marco Ellenberger als Host ist erschienen. Im Playoff-Final der Quickline Handball League duellieren sich die Kadetten Schaffhausen und der HC Kriens-Luzern um den Meistertitel. Wir beleuchten die Affiche der Topteams im Podcast aus einer anderen Flughöhe: Mit den beiden Geschäftsführern. David Graubner und Lukas Troxler bringen beide einen sehr vielfältigen – und vor allem auch sehr unterschiedlichen – Rucksack an Erfahrungen mit. Entsprechend spannend ist das Gespräch über eine grosse Anzahl verschiedener Themen: Wo steht der Schweizer Handball im Vergleich zu anderen Sportarten? Wie sieht es mit Ehrenamt und Professionalisierung aus? Oder wie wichtig sind moderne Arenen wie die Pilatus Arena oder die BBC Arena für die Vermarktung? Reinhören in den Podcast lohnt sich auf jeden Fall. David Graubner (39) ist ehemaliger Nationalspieler (128 Länderspiele), langjährige Identifikationsfigur bei den Kadetten Schaffhausen und seit 2017 – nach seinem Rücktritt vom Spitzensport – Geschäftsführer der Kadetten Handball AG und der BBC Arena. Gleichzeitig verantwortet er auch die Funktion des Sportchefs. Im Jahr 2011 erlebte er als Spieler den Umzug von der altehrwürdigen Schweizersbildhalle in die moderne BBC Arena. Lukas Troxler (47) ist seit einem Jahr Geschäftsführer des HC Kriens-Luzern. Der Fachmann im Sportmarketing arbeitete in seiner Karriere unter anderem für die FIFA – er begleitete die Fussball-Weltmeisterschaften 2006 und 2010 – oder für Adidas. Vor seinem Wechsel in den Handball war er Mitglied der Geschäftsleitung beim FC Luzern. Mit seiner Erfahrung soll er als Nachfolger von Nick Christen auf Vereinsseite die Voraussetzungen für den Umzug in die Pilatus Arena schaffen, der auf den Saisonstart 2025/26 geplant ist.

Elana Levin from Graphic Policy Radio returns to the show for a deep dive into the second wave of Ska music, a brief but influential era when black and white UK musicians fused Jamaican dance music of the sixties into punk and new wave music of the seventies to create a sound that would further revolutionize American popular music in the nineties. The modern ska genre gets made fun of a lot (mozzarella sticks, anyone?) but Elana will have you know that ska music is not a joke. In an 18-month period, 2 Tone Records, an indie label founded by the keyboardist from The Specials, Jerry Dammers, took over the UK pop charts with major distribution support from Chrysalis Records. In the wake of the election of Margaret Thatcher and the rise of white nationalists taking advantage of national economic malaise, a musical rebuke of these trends came from bands in the town of Coventry, offering alternative visions of racial harmony and anti-fascist songs you could dance to. The 1981 concert documentary Dance Craze, recently restored, captures the 2 Tone bands performing in their prime. We discuss the evolution of ska, pay tribute to some of the top groups of the Second Wave Ska era including The Selecter, Madness, Bad Manners and The Specials and bid farewell to their lead singer the late great Terry Hall, whose passing last year inspired this episode.

Dr Michael Mulvihill is a Research Associate at the University of Newcastle's. His recent project, 'Turning Fylingdales Inside Out: making practice visible at the UK's ballistic missile early warning and space monitoring station' was a multimedia art project intending to demystify nuclear weapons through showing that they are made of everyday materials: the original panel sections of the geodesic domes covering RAF Fylingdales were made of laminated cardboard, for example. In our discussion, Michael explained that the pro-nuclear and anti-nuclear sides often mirror each other in their rhetoric by showing powerful images of nuclear weapons. Whereas by revealing the mundanity of nuclear construction through his audio-visual and very tactile artwork, Michael's work helps to break this spell and remind us that nuclear weapons are human created things that we control, not some godlike structure that rules over us. We built them, so we can take them apart too. We also talked about the BBC Arena documentary, A British Guide to the End of the World, based on Michael's PhD thesis, which covered British nuclear testing at Christmas Island and the effects it had on British forces participants who were there at the time. Questions I very much connected with your story of trying to run home from school within the four minute warning. Similarly, I think seeing RAF Fylingdales and RAF Menwith Hill on childhood trips to Scarborough planted subconscious questions around nuclear war that emerged years later in my PhD thesis. To what extent do you feel your work is an attempt to gain some kind of control over that fear of nuclear war that concerned you so much as a child? Do you feel that your sculptures and artwork are an attempt to gain close-at-hand control over global forces of nuclear deterrence? To what extent do you feel that your work is an attempt to create a nomadic war machine to disrupt the assemblages of nuclear war? Something akin to Deleuze and Guittari's Warrior-Animal-Weapon as Artist-Hair-Paintbrush? Can we overcome what Gunter Anders calls the ‘Promethean gap' between the embodied limits of human imagination and the enormous powers that nuclear weapons bestow, whereby ‘We can bomb to shreds hundreds of thousands, but we cannot mourn or regret them'? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hypervelocity/message

This week Philip Hoare discusses Albert & the Whale his dive into the mind of Albrecht Durer, one of the most well-known yet mysterious of artists. Mysterious because he lived at that fluid time, in the fifteenth century, where history and legend often blend into one. Mysterious because his works feel so replete with meaning and yet prove so hard to interpret. And mysterious because his skills were so advanced, his genius so profound, that his techniques are hard to replicate even more than five centuries later.'This is a wonderful book. A lyrical journey into the natural and unnatural world' Patti SmithBuy Albert & the Whale here: https://shakespeareandcompany.com/I/9780008323295/albert-and-the-whaleBrowse our online store here: https://shakespeareandcompany.com/15/online-store/16/bookstore*Albrecht Durer changed the way we saw nature through art. From his prints in 1498 of the plague ridden Apocalypse - the first works mass produced by any artist - to his hyper-real images of animals and plants, his art was a revelation: it showed us who we are but it also foresaw our future. It is a vision that remains startlingly powerful and seductive, even now.In Albert & the Whale, Philip Hoare sets out to discover why Durer's art endures. He encounters medieval alchemists and modernist poets, eccentric emperors and queer soul rebels, ambassadorial whales and enigmatic pop artists. He witnesses the miraculous birth of Durer's fantastical rhinoceros and his hermaphroditic hare, and he traces the fate of the star-crossed leviathan that the artist pursued. And as the author swims from Europe to America and beyond, these prophetic artists and downed angels provoke awkward questions. What is natural or unnatural? Is art a fatal contract? Or does it in fact have the power to save us?With its wild and watery adventures, its witty accounts of amazing cultural lives and its delight in the fragile beauty of the natural world, Albert & the Whale offers glorious, inspiring insights into a great artist, and his unerring, sometimes disturbing gaze.*Philip Hoare is the author of six works of non-fiction: Serious Pleasures: The Life of Stephen Tennant (1990) and Noel Coward: A Biography (1995), Wilde's Last Stand: Decadence, Conspiracy, and the First World War (1997), Spike Island: The Memory of a Military Hospital (2000), and England's Lost Eden: Adventures in a Victorian Utopia (2005). Leviathan or, The Whale (2008), won the 2009 BBC Samuel Johnson Prize for non-fiction.

The telly equivalent of a bumper Beano summer special, the 1995 BBC Arena documentary about Peter Sellers was stretched over three episodes and clocked in at nearly three and a half hours. Made up of extensive home movie footage and interviews with most of the key players in Sellers' life, as well as clips from his career and some wonderfully atmospheric music, it was arguably the second-most important multi-episode popular culture TV retrospective of 1995, behind The Beatles Anthology series. Obvs. And *speaking* of The Fab Four, this week's guest is Joe Wisbey, a man who spends an awful lot of time chatting to authors of Beatles books (paperback writers, if you will) for his marvellous Beatles Books podcast – available here: https://beatlesbooks.podbean.com/ Joe has probably watched the Sellers documentary more times than is strictly seemly but it holds an enduring fascination for him and he spoke eloquently about how he came to discover it and what it means to him.

In 1960, Michelangelo Antonioni released "L'avventura," a film that would make him world-famous and that would change cinema forever. Antonioni was crucial in elevating cinema to an art form and expanding the language of film by constructing a deeply visual style that would influence filmmakers for decades to come. In this episode, I talk about the mysterious power of "L'avventura," why it has haunted me for years, and why it matters so much. Consider making this podcast sustainable by supporting it on Patreon.
