Podcasts about Berlin

This week on Drumcode Live we have a studio mix from Veerus & Mattia Saviolo recorded in Berlin, Germany.

Artificial intelligence is changing the rules of software investing, forcing private equity firms to adapt quickly and carefully. In this episode, we're joined by the team from Code & Co., one of the leading AI and tech due diligence firms serving private equity investors, to discuss how AI is transforming the way software companies are evaluated before a deal closes. Jim sits down with Code & Co. Managing Partners Dan Bender and Lukas Ingelheim along with Head of North America Kirby Montgomery to explain why tech due diligence is no longer just a checkbox exercise. Dan, Lukas and Kirby walk us through real-world examples of overengineered software, cloud optimization opportunities worth millions of dollars, and how PE firms can identify companies that are positioned to thrive rather than become the next commoditized AI feature. Whether you're a private equity investor, software executive, operating partner, founder, or technology leader, this episode offers a practical look at what separates durable software businesses from those at risk of being disrupted. About Code & Co.: Founded in 2016, Code & Co. has close to 1000 engagements behind them for more than 200 global funds. They are a global and fast-growing practice with offices in Berlin, London, Paris and New York. From a fast first-read all the way through post-close value creation, Code & Co. works across the full deal life cycle on both the buy-side and sell-side. Every member of the team is an operator with hands-on tech, product, and AI experience. That experience helps them take a confident view on where AI is building a real moat versus just being a feature that gets commoditized away.

Mark Sappenfield, from Berlin, GermanyHear more from Mark on this week's episode of Sentinel Watch.

Francis Kéré, architect, educator, builder, and one of the most compelling advocates for architecture as a force for dignity, participation, and social transformation. Kéré's architecture begins with people and for a building to exist, it has to traverse a process of listening, learning, and designing and fabricating together with the public it is meant for.Born in Gando, Burkina Faso, and based in Berlin, Kéré first came to international attention through a school he designed for his home village while still a student, in 2001. Built with local materials and the participation of the community, the project demonstrated that architecture could be elegant, climate-responsive, and socially transformative. Since then, his work has expanded from schools and clinics to national assemblies, memorials, museums, and cultural institutions around the world. In 2022, he received the Pritzker Architecture Prize, the highest honor in his field.In this conversation with Paola Antonelli, Kéré reflects on his new book, Building Stories, which foregrounds sketches, conversations, memories, and acts of collective making rather than finished masterpieces. Together, they discuss participation, local knowledge, democracy, and architecture's capacity to create dignity, agency, and belonging.You can find images related to this interview on our Instagram grid @design.emergency.

Da will - nennen wir sie mal - Kim einfach nur ihrer Arbeit nachgehen, da kommt auch schon der Kollege. Und der hat nur eine Frage: warum Kim kein Kind hat. Dabei hat Kim dieses Thema diesem Mann gegenüber nie aufgemacht. Er scheint kein anderes zu haben. Obwohl… dezent übergriffig kommt er dann auch noch mit anderen Sachen um die Ecke.

Fluent Fiction - Danish: A Serendipitous Swap at Copenhagen's Busy Airport Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/da/episode/2026-06-16-07-38-19-da Story Transcript:Da: Midt i sommerens travlhed ved Københavns Internationale Lufthavn skete der altid noget uventet.En: In the midst of the summer hustle and bustle at Københavns Internationale Lufthavn, something unexpected always happened.Da: Flugttavler skiftede konstant, og rejsende hastede gennem terminalerne med blikke faste mod deres destination.En: The flight boards constantly changed, and travelers rushed through the terminals with their eyes fixed on their destinations.Da: Mellem disse mennesker gik Mikkel, en mand i jakkesæt, altid ordnet med skinnende sko, sin rene mappe og det sundeste danske rugbrød i sin taske.En: Among these people was Mikkel, a man in a suit, always tidy with shiny shoes, his clean folder, and the healthiest Danish rye bread in his bag.Da: Han havde en vigtig forretningsrejse til Berlin på programmet.En: He had an important business trip to Berlin on the agenda.Da: Ikke langt fra ham var Freja, en ung kvinde med afslappet tøj og en lystig rygsæk fyldt med drømme og lidt praktisk rejsegejl til hendes kommende eventyr i Sydøstasien.En: Not far from him was Freja, a young woman in casual clothes with a cheerful backpack filled with dreams and a bit of practical travel gear for her upcoming adventure in Southeast Asia.Da: Idet de begge nåede sikkerhedskontrollen, forsøgte Mikkel at holde fokus.En: As they both reached the security checkpoint, Mikkel tried to stay focused.Da: Men i strømmen af mennesker, der skubbede og skyndte sig med livlig kækhed gennem sikkerhedstjekket, tog han uforvarende Frejas rygsæk i stedet for sin egen.En: But in the stream of people pushing and rushing with lively zest through the security check, he inadvertently took Freja's backpack instead of his own.Da: Det gik ikke op for ham, før han sad i venteområdet, langt væk fra lydløse beskedtoner og knas af småkager.En: He didn't realize until he was sitting in the waiting area, far away from silent message tones and the crunch of cookies.Da: Han skulle bruge sine dokumenter til forretningsmødet, da han fremdrog en guidebog til Thailand og en farvestrålende sarong.En: He needed his documents for the business meeting when he drew out a guidebook to Thailand and a colorful sarong.Da: Samtidig sad Freja ved nærmeste kaffebar, klar til at tage sin rejsebibel frem.En: Meanwhile, Freja sat at the nearest coffee bar, ready to take out her travel bible.Da: I stedet mødte hun et hav af papirer og kontorartikler, der stank af formalitet.En: Instead, she was met with a sea of papers and office supplies that reeked of formality.Da: Hun grinede, lidt rystet, men ikke overrasket over Lufthavnens magi.En: She laughed, a bit shaken, but not surprised by the airport's magic.Da: Med et skævt smil besluttede hun at blive siddende i håb om, at ejeren af den byttede taske ville komme forbi.En: With a crooked smile, she decided to stay put in the hope that the owner of the swapped bag would come by.Da: Mikkel kiggede febrilsk rundt og så sig nødsaget til at finde Freja.En: Mikkel looked around frantically and knew he needed to find Freja.Da: Han spurgte sig vej blandt travle rejsende og nåede frem til Freja, sidst da han var tæt på at gå om bord.En: He asked his way among busy travelers and reached Freja, just as he was about to board.Da: "Er du Freja?"En: "Are you Freja?"Da: spurgte han lettere åndeløst, idet han kunne se sin egen rygsæk ved hendes fødder.En: he asked, slightly breathless, as he could see his own backpack at her feet.Da: "Jeg tror, vi har byttet tasker," sagde Freja leende, og de to udvekslede taskeindhold og latter.En: "I think we switched bags," said Freja, laughing, and the two exchanged bag contents and laughter.Da: Med deres tasker tilbage i de rette hænder skilles deres veje hurtigt.En: With their bags back in the right hands, their paths quickly diverged.Da: Idet de gik mod hver deres gate, kiggede Mikkel en sidste gang mod Freja og overvejede, hvordan hendes frie ånd kunne give et pust til hans lidt for skematiske liv.En: As they walked toward their respective gates, Mikkel glanced one last time at Freja and considered how her free spirit could bring a breath of fresh air to his somewhat too schematic life.Da: Freja på sin side tænkte, at nogle gange krævede selv eventyr lidt planlægning – nok til, at man fik sine ting med sig.En: Freja, on her part, thought that sometimes even adventures required a bit of planning—enough to ensure you took your belongings with you.Da: Mikkel boardede flyet med en ny tanke om, at eventyr, som Frejas, måske ikke var så langt fra hans rækkevidde, mens Freja gik mod sin gate med en ny respekt for planlægningens kunst.En: Mikkel boarded the plane with a new thought that adventures like Freja's might not be so far out of his reach, while Freja headed toward her gate with a newfound respect for the art of planning.Da: Og et sted imellem lufthavnens travlhed fandt de en fælles forståelse for livet på farten.En: And somewhere amidst the airport's hustle and bustle, they found a mutual understanding for life on the move.

Le secteur de la construction représente 37% des émissions de gaz à effet de serre, et plus de la moitié de l'extraction des matières premières dans le monde, selon un rapport du Programme des Nations unies pour l'environnement (PNUE) et l'Alliance mondiale pour les bâtiments et la construction (GlobalABC).  Des chiffres qui le classent parmi les plus polluants au monde. Alors que la surface bâtie a augmenté d'1,7% en 2024, soit 4 fois la superficie de villes comme Berlin ou New-York, nos besoins en béton, acier, bois, verre, briques devraient continuer à croître. Car le monde s'urbanise, selon les projections des Nations unies, près de 70% de la population mondiale vivra en zone urbaine en 2050, soit 6,3 milliards de personnes. Des zones urbaines qu'il faudra donc construire car beaucoup ne sont pas encore sorties de terre, surtout au Sud où la croissance urbaine est la plus forte.  Dans un contexte de réchauffement climatique, où les villes connaissent des phénomènes d'îlot de chaleur, où elles sont traversées par des inondations destructrices, où les bâtiments, les infrastructures s'effondrent, notre manière de bâtir interroge. De Paris à Dubaï en passant par Dakar, quels sont les matériaux que nous utilisons pour ériger nos villes ? D'où viennent-ils ? Sont-ils adaptés à tous les contextes ou faudrait-il faire des choix différents ?   Avec : • Armelle Choplin, géographe et urbaniste, professeur à l'Université de Genève. Co-autrice avec Philippe Simay de Matériaux, un catalogue critique – construire le monde autrement (La Découverte, 2026) •  Philippe Simay, maître de conférences en philosophie à l'École nationale supérieure d'architecture Paris-Belleville. Co-auteur avec Armelle Choplin de Matériaux, un catalogue critique – construire le monde autrement (La Découverte, 2026) • Nzinga Biegueng Mboup, architecte, co-fondatrice de Worofila, atelier d'architecture bioclimatique basé à Dakar au Sénégal.   Programmation musicale : ► Ma mère va me tuer - Yoa, Asfar Shamsi ► Pa' la seca  - Maluma, Ryan Castro.

The majority of the societal weakening an cultural poisons are now done away from the streets and clubs. The tech age has allowed for more discretion, and less noticeable moral decay is happening right at people's homes, at their desks, on their tablets, PCs, laptops, and phones. It's a new age of perversion that can creep right into your home and obsess or corrupt your family members. They needn't sneak out or ever run away to become essentially prostitutes. They can do it in their bedrooms, and even order elicit, life destroying addictive substances from the internet while making the "easy money." It's an epidemic and along with it, weak males, simps, gooners, and degenerate social misfits with arrested development are on the rise. The probability is low that these porn addicted young males will ever function in real life. The convenience of the internet, the opportunities it provides, the money that can be made for the price of your dignity and self-respect are extremely powerful temptations for many young women. The promise isn't always equal to the actual payout. And the reputation damage, the scarlet letter they forever after carry, cannot be erased or bought out of existence. The evidence remains, and no one will ever look at you without thinking about what you do or did for pay.One way to ensure your favorite indy channels remain is to Follow, Subscribe, and leave likes and comments.

What if your deepest expertise is the very thing making you harder to understand? British music producer turned strategic story producer Rob D. Willis joins Park Howell on the Business of Story to explain why complexity kills communication — and how story structure gives your audience exactly the right combination of connections to get you, what you're about, and what you're asking them to do. Rob has spent years helping tech founders, corporate leaders, and change-makers in Berlin and beyond simplify their most complex ideas into stories that move people to act. In this episode, he brings the frameworks, the neuroscience, and the real-world case studies to prove it. What you'll discover: Why the curse of expertise turns your knowledge into noise — and how story is the antidote The four audience types (friendly, adversarial, apathetic, uneducated) that should reshape every high-stakes conversation How the Downing Street communication grid turns your story into a replicable action plan The three types of complexity — intrinsic, extraneous, and germane — and which one you actually control Why your brain runs on narrative, not logic (and what dopamine, cortisol, and oxytocin have to do with it) How a bank board member's "sand vs. stones" story changed the way Rob thinks about strategic communication About Rob D. Willis: Rob D. Willis is a British music producer turned strategic story producer based in Berlin. He helps leaders and organizations cut through complexity by applying the structure of story to high-stakes communication. Find him on Instagram and LinkedIn at @robdwillis.

In this episode, Andrew chats with Adriano Carollo at PSConfEU about community, PowerShell Universal, AI, and what happens when you stop lurking and start talking to people. Adriano shares how PowerShell helped him grow from sysadmin into web apps, automation, and open source-style contribution, while Andrew reflects on learning, AI, and why enthusiasm still matters.   Key Takeaways:  · Community accelerates growth. Adriano came to PSConfEU after hearing Andrew encourage listeners to engage, and the payoff was immediate.  · PowerShell Universal can open unexpected doors. Adriano describes using it daily to learn web development concepts like JavaScript, HTML, and React through PowerShell.  · AI is most useful when it supports learning instead of replacing it. Both Andrew and Adriano talk about using AI for research, syntax help, documentation, and personal workflows while still valuing hands-on problem solving.  Guest Bio:  Adriano Carollo is a Berlin-based system administrator and PowerShell enthusiast who uses PowerShell Universal daily. He is active in the PowerShell Universal Discord community and is exploring automation, web apps, self-hosting, and entrepreneurship.  Resource Links:  PDQ Connect:https://www.pdq.com/pdq-connect/ PowerShell Scanner for PDQ Connect:https://www.pdq.com/blog/the-powershell-scanner-has-arrived-in-pdq-connect/ PowerShell Universal:https://powershelluniversal.com/ PSConfEU:https://psconf.eu/  PDQ Community Discord:https://discord.gg/pdq Adriano C. https://linkedin.com/in/adriano-c-501203213 The PowerShell Podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/qLYqUF9gD9s

What does it mean, three decades after the demise of the USSR, to inhabit cities built for a future that has never arrived? In pursuit of the question—what is left of the socialist city?—this book aims not only to trace the material and mnemonic remains of the socialist city,  but to show how the Soviet discourse of the city at times engendered radical ideas that challenged the narrow confines of state socialism itself. These ideas are, for instance, the efforts of Esperanto-speaking internationalists from Czechoslovakia to build the internationalist city from below in the Central Asian steppe, the quest of Armenian Futurists to root the architectural style of Soviet Armenia in the country's Persianate heritage, or a Jewish-Kyrgyz philosopher's vision of turning a science town in the hinterland of Moscow into the first ecopolis of the USSR. In an effort to rethink the life and afterlife of the Soviet city from its geographical South, The Death and Life of Southern Soviet Cities: Urban Futures and Their Afterlives (Routledge, 2026) explores the material and immaterial legacies of socialist-era urbanization in Central Asia and the Southern Caucasus. To this end, it embarks on a historical and ethnographic journey to urban sites in Armenia and Kyrgyzstan. In a quest to reconstruct competing visions of urbanity that emerged from within the Soviet South, using varied empirical sources in Armenian, Czech, Kyrgyz, and Russian, the book outlines four urban visions: bottom-up urbanity, rooted urbanity, polycentric urbanity, and ecocentric urbanity. By understanding the social vision of a "socialist city of the future" beyond the political center in its trans-local independence, the book highlights the cultural and linguistic diversity of the Soviet South and its historical embeddedness within the regional dynamics of the Global South. David Leupold is a sociologist, scholar of memory wars and research fellow in the ERC-funded research project REVENANT: Revivals of Empire. He is the author of the prize-winning book Embattled Dreamlands: The Politics of Contesting Armenian, Turkish, and Kurdish Memory (2021), the former principal investigator of the DFG-funded research project Future Images of the Past (2021–2025), and a current resource scholar for the Monterey Initiative in Russian Studies (Middlebury Institute of International Studies). He lives in Berlin.  This interview was conducted by Ernest Lee, PhD student at the University of Chicago. He researches the history of postcolonial energy through the lens of development, infrastructure and environment, with a focus on West Africa and Southeast Asia.  Learn more about your ad choices.

We're well used to Barcelona winning this title over the years but this one felt a little different. With the German sides favoured by most and Aalborg the hipster tip for the trophy, the Catalan club reminded us all what it takes to get through this weekend, surviving Saturday's semi-final slog before a masterclass in the final against Berlin. Emil Nielsen's early showdowns with Gidsel and Andersson set the tone and Barca never looked back. We break down the action and the players who made it happen, discuss the history made by the champions and wonder if Berlin's golden chance has passed them by.

By understanding the social vision of a "socialist city of the future" beyond the political center in its trans-local independence, the book highlights the cultural and linguistic diversity of the Soviet South and its historical embeddedness within the regional dynamics of the Global South.

Seit der vergangenen Woche greift sie nun: die Reform des Gemeinsamen Europäischen Asylsystems. GEAS gilt seit dem 12. Juni EU-weit und damit auch in Deutschland. Die neuen Rechtsakte verändern die Asylverfahren grundlegend und fordern von den EU-Staaten Härte und Solidarität. Die Reform sollte Migration europäisch ordnen, doch die Praxis zeigt unterschiedliche Wirkungen: Grenzkontrollen, nationale Alleingänge, Abschreckung. Die Einigkeit über die Praxis ist instabil in Europa. So riskieren Staaten den Bruch mit Brüssel, um innenpolitisch Handlungsfähigkeit zu demonstrieren. Dazu kommen neben GEAS neue EU-Beschlüsse wie die Rückkehrverordnung und geplante Return-Hubs, die die öffentliche Debatte über Asyl weiter befeuern. Die Politik verspricht der Bevölkerung durch die Reform und Verordnungen bessere und schnellere Kontrolle, bewegt sich dabei juristisch aber auf dünnem Eis. Diskutiert wird außerdem, was moralisch und humanitär vertretbar ist. Denn was bedeutet all das für die geflüchteten Menschen? Und löst dieser politische Kurs die logistischen Probleme in den Kommunen? Wie kann der europäische Traum vom gemeinsamen Grenzmanagement umgesetzt werden? Und welche gesellschaftlichen und ethischen Werte stehen dabei auf dem Spiel? Darüber sprechen wir mit Svenja Niederfranke vom Zentrum für Migration der DGAP, mit dem Sprecher des Bayerischen Flüchtlingsrates, Hamado Dipama, und dem Asylexperten Daniel Thym. Außerdem zu Gast: Karl Kopp, Geschäftsführer von Pro Asyl, und Kerstin Schlögl-Flierl vom Deutschen Ethikrat. Podcast-Tipp: Kaffee, extra schwarz. Der Podcast mit Mansour und Mayer-Rüth: GEAS - kommt jetzt die Asylwende? Gespräch mit Prof. Ruud Koopmans Professor Ruud Koopmans ist Migrationsforscher an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. Im neuen BR-Podcast "Kaffee, extra schwarz" sprechen der Autor Ahmad Mansour und der Journalist Oliver Mayer-Rüth mit ihm über GEAS. In knapp 30 Minuten beleuchten die beiden unterhaltsam, fundiert, provokant regelmäßig ein wichtiges Thema. https://www.ardsounds.de/episode/urn:ard:episode:1a8fec8fe02a6688/

What does it mean, three decades after the demise of the USSR, to inhabit cities built for a future that has never arrived? In pursuit of the question—what is left of the socialist city?—this book aims not only to trace the material and mnemonic remains of the socialist city,  but to show how the Soviet discourse of the city at times engendered radical ideas that challenged the narrow confines of state socialism itself. These ideas are, for instance, the efforts of Esperanto-speaking internationalists from Czechoslovakia to build the internationalist city from below in the Central Asian steppe, the quest of Armenian Futurists to root the architectural style of Soviet Armenia in the country's Persianate heritage, or a Jewish-Kyrgyz philosopher's vision of turning a science town in the hinterland of Moscow into the first ecopolis of the USSR. In an effort to rethink the life and afterlife of the Soviet city from its geographical South, The Death and Life of Southern Soviet Cities: Urban Futures and Their Afterlives (Routledge, 2026) explores the material and immaterial legacies of socialist-era urbanization in Central Asia and the Southern Caucasus. To this end, it embarks on a historical and ethnographic journey to urban sites in Armenia and Kyrgyzstan. In a quest to reconstruct competing visions of urbanity that emerged from within the Soviet South, using varied empirical sources in Armenian, Czech, Kyrgyz, and Russian, the book outlines four urban visions: bottom-up urbanity, rooted urbanity, polycentric urbanity, and ecocentric urbanity. By understanding the social vision of a "socialist city of the future" beyond the political center in its trans-local independence, the book highlights the cultural and linguistic diversity of the Soviet South and its historical embeddedness within the regional dynamics of the Global South.

WTA Weekly – Queen's Club Review & Berlin/Nottingham Preview Welcome to WTA Weekly. This week, the grass-court season delivered one of its best stories as Donna Vekic completed a remarkable run to win the Queen's Club title in London. Entering the tournament as a lucky loser after falling in qualifying, Vekic took full advantage of her second chance and capped the week with a 6-0, 7-6(6) victory over home favourite Emma Raducanu in the final. Vekic dominated the opening set before Raducanu fought back impressively in the second. The Brit recovered from a difficult start, built a lead, and even held set points, but Vekic's experience on grass proved decisive in a tense tiebreak. The Croatian eventually converted her fifth championship point to secure her first title in several years. Despite the loss, Raducanu leaves Queen's with plenty of positives. After an injury- and illness-disrupted season, she reached the final without dropping a set before Sunday and recorded victories over multiple top players. Her form suggests she could be a dangerous contender during the remainder of the grass swing and at Wimbledon. As for Vekic, the title continues a remarkable turnaround. She only entered the main draw after a late withdrawal created a lucky-loser spot, yet she navigated the field brilliantly and now heads into Wimbledon full of confidence. Looking ahead, attention shifts to the WTA 500 event in Berlin, one of the strongest grass-court tournaments outside Wimbledon. The field is expected to feature many of the tour's top players, making it a crucial test before the Championships. Meanwhile, the WTA event in Nottingham offers another opportunity for players to gain valuable grass-court matches and ranking points. With Wimbledon just around the corner, every match becomes increasingly important as players fine-tune their games for the year's biggest grass-court event. That's all for this week's WTA Weekly. The road to Wimbledon is heating up, and after Vekic's incredible lucky-loser triumph at Queen's, the grass season has already shown that anything can happen. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Lazar Focus. Each Friday, join host diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Last week, Germany failed to secure a temporary seat on the powerful United Nations Security Council. There were several theories about the reason for Berlin's failure, but Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul offered a striking one — that it could be that Germany's support for Israel cost it the coveted seat. Germany is indeed one of Israel's closest allies in the world, and has been for decades. At the same time, the special relationship Israel enjoys with Berlin -- like its ties with other key allies -- has come under strain in the wars it has pursued in the wake of the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks. In August 2025, Germany announced a partial arms embargo on Israel over its decision to conquer Gaza City. To discuss the roots and the state of the Germany-Israel relationship, German Ambassador Steffen Seibert joined the podcast, weeks before he wraps up his four-year tenure and returns to Berlin. He rejects the idea that Germany's approach to Israel is guided by "Holocaust guilt." Instead, he says that the Shoah is a compass for Germany, which has the responsibility to learn the appropriate lessons from that dark period and let them guide its foreign policy. Seibert stresses that the Germany-Israel relationship is also rooted in shared democratic values and common interests. At the same time, he emphasizes that the special relationship exists within the pre-1967 borders, and that it sees Israel's presence in the West Bank as a violation of international law. On the war in Gaza, Seibert calls Israel's military response "inevitable and logical." Still, he says, there are questions over "how it was fought, how long it was fought." Still, he says that Hamas bears the main responsibility for the plight of Gazans. Seibert explains that Germany's decision not to intervene on Israel's behalf in the ICJ genocide case against Israel is a tactical move, as Berlin faces its own charges over its support for Israel: "It changes the assessment that we took at the beginning of the conflict. It's to do with the court case that we find ourselves in." Turning to the Iran war, Seibert says the Israeli-US campaign was "definitely understandable," but that continued fighting won't achieve much, and that it is now time to turn military gains into a political arrangement. Seibert, who learned Hebrew during his tenure, says that he is not sure what he will do next, but intends to continue spending time in Israel while he works to "reinvent" himself in the next phase of his career. Lazar Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by Gabriella Jacobs and video edited by Ari Schlacht. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Germany is considering a package of reforms to reduce its welfare state and make the economy more productive. This would include changes to labor laws, welfare payments to the unemployed, and the retirement age. In this live show in Berlin, Adam and Cameron discuss the potential reforms and also the Tempelhofer Feld, a huge park in Berlin where some Germans now want to build apartments to address the city's housing crisis.

Joel Kotkin examines the definition of fascism, arguing that Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is not a fascist because she respects democratic norms. He identifies China's government-led economy as the closest modern parallel to historical fascism. Kotkin also warns of "techno-fascism," where a small group of global tech companies exert unprecedented control over public opinion and information through surveillance tools. (7)BERLIN 1940

What does it take to photograph elite athletes pushing their bodies to the point of collapse, or freeze the motion of cars hurtling by at speeds that blur the line between control and catastrophe? Two of our favorite recent podcasts went deep inside those worlds: one with Phil Penman and Kristof Ramon on the brutal beauty of competitive cycling, and the other with Camden Thrasher and Jamey Price on the relentless sensory overload that comes with photographing motor sports. While our video podcast studio gets its finishing touches, we're revisiting our archive for an encore that pairs the best of both sports—from the many stages of suffering baked into professional cycling to the wild mix of visual stimulation and sleep deprivation that comes with shooting a 24-hour endurance race. In each conversation, you'll find sparks of enlightenment that happens when photographers who thrive on adrenaline get a chance to really talk shop. The excerpts here contain the highlights. Yet, the full episodes are also worth your time—links to those are in the timeline below. And make sure to subscribe @BHPodcastNetwork to get our latest updates on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.

Guest Bios: British-born, New York-based photographer Phil Penman has documented the ever-changing scene of New York City's streets for more than 25 years. and he has quite a bit of experience in the world of professional cycling himself. In his career as a news and magazine photographer, Phil has photographed major public figures and historical events. His reportage following the 9/11 terrorist attack was featured in major print publications and media broadcasts worldwide, and his work covering New York City's pandemic lockdown is in the collection of the U.S. Library of Congress. In addition to exhibiting at Leica galleries in New York, Washington, D.C., Boston, and London, Phil's signature street photography has appeared in international exhibitions as far afield as Venice, Berlin, and Sydney. He also tours the world teaching photo workshops for Leica Akademie. Phil's books, "Street" published in 2019, and "New York Street Diaries" published in 2023 both became best-sellers and have been featured at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Kristof Ramon is a pro-cycling photographer who covers some of the world's most prestigious races, including the Tour de France, the Giro d' Italia, the Tour of Flanders and Paris Roubaix. Born and raised in Belgium, Kristof discovered photography while attending film school at age 19. He eventually followed his passion for cycling and photography and has focused exclusively on this sport since 2011. Working under the name Kramon, his talent for storytelling and his ability to capture the atmosphere and raw emotion of racing makes his images stand out from typical race photography. Kristof's reputation has earned him the respect and trust of many of the biggest racing teams and riders - which is why he's able to capture such extraordinary in-between moments and behind-the-scenes images. The riders are always his primary focus, as evidenced in his close-up portraits of racers caked in sweat, mud, dust, snow, and grime. Kristof's first book, The Art of Suffering, was released in June 2024 by Laurence King Publishing. Camden Thrasher is a motor sports photographer with a distinctive ability to capture unique scenes of fast action. Growing up in Vancouver, Washington, it was the sound of engines from a nearby racetrack that first drew him to motor sports. After becoming a fixture at the track with his camera during high school, Camden studied automotive design and engineering in college, expecting to work as an engineer or on a pit crew. But the money he was making as a side hustle with his camera convinced him to stick with photography, and he hasn't looked back since. Using a unique slow shutter speed method, perfected over many exposures, Camden revels in showcasing the abstract qualities of gleaming metal, bright lights, and dynamic action that are hallmarks of this sport. Now based out of Atlanta, Georgia, Camden's work has been commissioned by top racing teams and featured in a wide range of media, from print magazines to automotive branding campaigns. Jamey Price is an automotive photographer based in Charlotte, North Carolina, whose motor sports work has taken him to more than 25 countries, and across most of the continental US. Jamey's photography career began while he was competing as a thoroughbred horse racing jockey and exercise rider. During this time, he completed more than 50 races, notching 11 wins in the saddle. His life in horse racing was eventually compiled into the self-published book Chasing: Racing Life in England & Ireland. Yet, in 2011, Jamey's photography career switched from horses to horse-power. Since he began chasing race cars, his images have been published worldwide in magazines, distributed by sports imagery wire services, and featured by top commercial clients. Additionally, Jamey is a LEXAR Elite Artist, since 2014.

Today we're joined by Tom Cosm, a New Zealand-born producer, technologist, coder, and educator who's been pushing the boundaries of music and sound for over two decades. He's known for pioneering YouTube tutorials that taught a generation of producers, and for building systems that turn things like tree-disease data and biometric signals into actual music. He's currently Technical Director at Telepathic Instruments, where he built the first prototype of Orchid and now oversees its development. We start out talking about travel and jet lag recovery, which sounds like small talk but turns into a pretty real conversation about what it actually feels like to be constantly in motion — the post-travel bounce, the crash that follows, and learning to slow down when you get home. Tom just got back from London, Berlin, and Spain, partly for a Telepathic team meetup and a pop-up where people could come play Orchid in person, and partly for Superbooth, which he describes as basically a Vegas casino lobby for modular nerds — in a forest. From there we get into Telepathic Instruments and how he got involved — Kevin Parker reached out after seeing his work on YouTube — and what the development of Orchid has actually looked like. We talk about what the device is trying to do, how community feedback from their early adopters has shaped the features, and what's coming next. Hope you enjoy it. Please welcome Tom Cosm.
