Berlin is losing its publicly-funded Nextbike system. What does it say about the city's deflating civic status? Also we meet the artistic director of the Doxumentale film festival to hear why they've added an X to their name. And the founder of Give Something Back to Berlin will tell us about how beauty parlours are places of feminist empowerment.  Nextbike has lost its €1.5M annual public funding to run a discounted shared bicycle system across Berlin. The CDU-led city-state government says it is too broke to fund the scheme, which ran since 2017, and reached 4 million journeys last year. Joel explains what's behind its demise. Days before the start of Berlin's Dokumentale documentary and non-fiction festival, the organizers received a legal threat over their name. Instead of fighting, they've changed their name to DoXumentale. We meet the festival's artistic director Anna Ramskloger-Witt, who explains why the new name is better. She tells us about program, including a nature film about gay animals, a profile of a Berlin undertaker and more. DoXumentale runs until June 28. Find a screening or watch online at https://www.dokumentale.de/ What goes on behind the doors of beauty salons? NGO founder Annamaria Olsson decided to take a microphone to meet women in these safe spaces, and found a world of womens' empowerment. Beauty salons give women jobs and help them overcome domestic violence. Annamaria has travelled to Morocco, Georgia, Bosnia and Kosovo to record audio for her project. The result is “Stories from the Beauty Parlor”.

June '95: the new Rapid Reaction Force | Sarajevo on its knees | The prelude to extermination

Giugno '95: la nuova Forza di reazione rapida | Sarajevo allo stremo | Il preludio di uno sterminio

Astăzi la Odesa are loc summitul regional Ucraina-Europa de Sud-Est, găzduit de preşedintele ucrainean Volodimir Zelenski, la care participă şi președintele României Nicușor Dan, preşedinta Republicii Moldova Maia Sandu şi alţi lideri din zonă. După ce Odesa a fost recent ţinta unor atacuri masive cu drone, azi noapte şi azi dimineaţă la Odesa au sunat din nou alarmele aeriene. Acesta este contextul în care se desfăşoară summitul. Ce semnificaţie are întîlnirea liderilor sud-est europeni în acest climat tensionat? L-am întrebat pe jurnalistul Mihai Isac.Mihai Isac: „Acest al patrulea summit Ucraina-Europa de Sud-Est are loc în condiţii drastice de securitate. Federaţia Rusă şi-a făcut un obicei din a ataca diferite oraşe din Ucraina în momentul în care au loc întîlniri importante între Ucraina şi statele partenere. Este al doilea exerciţiu de acest nivel al preşedintelui României Nicuşor Dan, este a doua vizită la un summit important, după participarea la summitul B9 cu statele baltice, la Vilnius. Prezenţa României în acest format este importantă atît pentru relansare politicii externe a României, dar şi pentru a demonstra, pe plan intern şi pe plan extern, că statul român este din nou funcţional.”Care este semnalul transmis Moscovei prin summitul de la Odesa?Mihai Isac: „Semnalul este clar: Ucraina nu este singură, Ucraina nu este învinsă. În pofida pierderilor de pe front, totuşi, vedem că Federaţia Rusă nu reuşeşte să înfrîngă capacitatea de luptă a Ucrainei şi voinţa poporului ucrainean de a rezista. Vedem de asemenea prezenţa la Odesa a preşedintelui sîrb Aleksandar Vucic, un cunoscut prieten al preşedintelui Putin – e clar că ceea ce se întîmplă în regiune îi îngrijorează chiar şi pe cei mai fervenţi aliaţi ai preşedintelui Putin. (...) Este pentru prima dată cînd Vucic vizitează Ucraina după declanşarea invaziei pe scară largă, în februarie 2022. Desigur, Serbia are propriile sale interese atunci cînd susţine integritatea teritorială a Ucrainei. Să nu uităm că Belgradul se află într-un război dur cu autorităţile de la Priştina, capitala Republicii Kosovo, pentru a împiedica recunoaşterea independenţei acestei foste provincii de către majoritatea statelor lumii. Republica Kosovo este recunoscută de o mare parte a statelor Uniunii Europene, România nu este unul dintre aceste state. Serbia are, de asemenea, interese foarte mari cînd vine vorba de Republica Srpska din Bosnia şi Herţegovina, o regiune locuită majoritar de etnici sîrbi. În acest moment putem vedea un interes al Federaţiei Ruse ca domnul Vucic să participe la acest summit. Sau această participare poate fi o încercare a administraţiei prezidenţiale de la Belgrad de a îmbuna statele Uniunii Europene, avînd în vedere că Serbia depinde economic de UE.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral! O emisiune de Adela Greceanu și Matei Martin Un produs Radio România Cultural

Christiane Amanpour is chief international anchor of CNN's flagship global affairs program “Amanpour,” which airs weekdays on CNN International and nightly on PBS in the United States. She is also host of “The Amanpour Hour,” and is based in the network's London bureau. Beginning in 1983 as an entry-level assistant on the international assignment desk at CNN's headquarters in Atlanta, Amanpour rose through the organization becoming a reporter at the New York bureau, and later, the network's leading international correspondent. On the ground during the siege of Sarajevo, Amanpour exposed the brutality of the Bosnian War, reporting on the daily tragedy of life for civilians in the city. She was outspoken, calling out the human rights abuses, massacres and genocide committed against the Bosnian Moslems, later saying “There are some situations one simply cannot be neutral about, because when you are neutral you are an accomplice.” Throughout her time at CNN, Amanpour has secured exclusive interviews with global power players. In the wake of the September 11 attacks she was the first international correspondent to interview British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf and Afghan President Hamid Karzai. During the height of the Arab Spring she conducted an Emmy-winning interview with Libya's former leader ‘Colonel' Moammar Gadhafi, and she was also the last journalist to interview Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak just before he was deposed. In January 2014, Amanpour also exclusively broke the news of a dossier of testimony and photographs which alleged to show systematic torture of prisoners by government forces in Syria, evidence she used to confront Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev about his government's support for the Assad regime. In addition to her work as an anchor and reporter, Amanpour is an active rights campaigner. A board member of the Committee to Protect Journalists, the Centre for Public Integrity and the International Women's Media Foundation, she has used her profile to raise awareness of key global issues and journalists' rights. She has interviewed educational rights activist Malala Yousafzai for CNN on several occasions – bringing focus to her courage and international advocacy work. Amanpour has earned 16 News and Documentary Emmy Awards, four Peabody Awards, two George Polk Awards, three duPont-Columbia Awards and the IWMF's Courage in Journalism Award. She has received nine honorary degrees, is an honorary citizen of Sarajevo, and a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for Freedom of the Press and the Safety of Journalists. Amanpour holds a BA in Journalism from the University of Rhode Island.Ralph Ranalli of the HKS Office of Communications and Public Affairs is the host, producer, and editor of HKS PolicyCast. A former journalist, public television producer, and entrepreneur, he holds an BA in political science from UCLA and a master's in journalism from Columbia University.Scheduling and logistical support for PolicyCast is provided by Lilian Wainaina.Design and graphics support is provided by Laura King and Delane Meadows.

Discussion Highlights:Global demographic megatrends include aging populations, declining fertility rates, and diverging regional population dynamics.Migration patterns involve both forced displacement from conflict zones such as Ukraine and Palestine and labor migration from the Western Balkans, with climate-related movement remaining unpredictable.Depopulation in the Western Balkans is driven by inaccurate census data, economic factors that incentivize emigration, steadily declining fertility rates, and cultural influences on family size.Many countries in the region face labor shortages as plumbers, electricians, and healthcare workers emigrate, prompting policy responses to attract migrant labor, cover an estimated €600 million integration cost in Croatia, and implement language instruction and integration programs.Populist political discourse often exploits public fears about migration, while political leaders frequently show reluctance to acknowledge domestic labor shortages and plan beyond short electoral cycles.Europe's geopolitical context is shaped by U.S.-China competition, the continuation of the war in Ukraine, and uneven or delayed European responses to crises, such as the conflict in Gaza.The current EU enlargement process is critiqued as overly merit-based, and many argue for the package accession of all Western Balkan states, drawing lessons from Croatia's recent membership and anticipating a changing nature of the future European Union.Bosnia and Herzegovina's post-Dayton governance system succeeded in halting widespread violence but remains hampered by persistent power-sharing gridlock, redundant international structures such as the Office of the High Representative, and ongoing challenges in constitutional and education system reforms.Thirty years after Dayton, instances of inter-ethnic violence have remained low since 1995, but schooling and commemorative practices remain fragmented, and domestic dialogue on wartime accountability has stalled.EU integration offers the potential to replace international oversight with European Union frameworks while addressing governance deficits, pervasive corruption, and the need for electoral reforms.About Alida VračićAlida Vračić is a political scientist and lawyer. She co-founded and serves as executive director of Populari, a Sarajevo-based think tank specializing in post-conflict state-building, democratization, good governance, and migration in the Western Balkans. Vračić holds a law degree from the University of Sarajevo and Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, where she specialized in criminal procedure law, an M.Sc. in International Public Policy from University College London, and completed Executive Education for non-government executives at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University. Before founding Populari in 2007, she worked for the State Court Prosecutor's team in Bosnia, at the Human Rights Commission of the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and led Balkan-wide projects at the Human Rights Centre, University of Sarajevo, and the Spanish Institutional Programme. Vračić has been affiliated with several academic and policy institutions, including as a former Europe's Futures fellow at IWM, the European Council on Foreign Relations as a Visiting Fellow, and the German Marshall Fund as a Marshall Memorial Fellow. Further Reading & ResourcesPopulari Think Tank: https://populari.org/en populari.orgIWM Europe's Futures Program (Alida Vračić profile): https://www.iwm.at/europes-futures/fellow/alida-vracic iwm.atECFR Profile (Alida Vračić): https://ecfr.eu/profile/alida-vracic ecfr.eu Ivan Vejvoda is Head of the Europe's Futures program at the Institute for Human Sciences (IWM Vienna) implemented in partnership with ERSTE Foundation.

In this episode of the Faith and Activism series, Abeer speaks with Bryan Carey, a peacebuilding consultant and the Director of International Peacebuilding at Peace Catalyst International. Drawing on his years of experience living in post-conflict Bosnia, Bryan reflects on the theological and practical shifts needed within Christian communities to move from domination-based models of faith to power-with approaches rooted in justice, empathy, and shared responsibility.Together, they explore how Christian theology can either fuel cycles of conflict or serve as a powerful tool for healing and reconciliation—especially in the context of Israel and Palestine. Bryan shares insights from his work with diverse communities in the Balkans and offers practical wisdom on what it takes to form faith communities into networks for peace.In the extended conversation for our Patreon supporters, Bryan dives deeper into what sustains hope in this work, even when Christian institutions resist change.

In questa puntata raccontiamo il crollo della Jugoslavia: una delle vicende più drammatiche e complesse della fine del Novecento.Ripercorriamo gli anni successivi alla morte di Tito, tra crisi economiche, tensioni etniche e un mosaico di repubbliche che si frantuma nel sangue.Dalla guerra lampo in Slovenia alla devastazione della Croazia, dalla tragedia della Bosnia fino all'intervento della NATO in Kosovo, seguiamo l'emergere di leader nazionalisti, i massacri, le epurazioni e le illusioni spezzate di fratellanza.È una storia che parla di confini, identità e violenza, ma anche del difficile equilibrio tra giustizia internazionale e memoria. Un'ultima lezione per capire come si rompe un paese — e quanto sia difficile ricomporlo.

Valerio Di Donato"La via di Emilio"Ronzani Editorewww.ronzanieditore.itUn viaggio nella memoria di Emilio Sergi, personaggio liberamente ispirato a Giacomo Scotti, uno degli intellettuali più rappresentativi della minoranza italiana residente in Croazia.Un viaggio nella memoria di Emilio Sergi, personaggio liberamente ispirato a Giacomo Scotti, uno degli intellettuali più rappresentativi della minoranza italiana residente in Croazia. Emilio ha ormai superato i 95 anni e vive in un palazzone di Fiume con la moglie Dorina, rintanato nel suo piccolo appartamento. Vi si trasferì diciannovenne, attratto dagli ideali del socialismo titino. Stimolato nelle riflessioni da una impertinente voce interiore, Emilio ricostruisce i passaggi più importanti della sua vita coincidenti, per lo più, con eventi salienti della grande Storia: l'esodo degli italiani dalla Venezia Giulia, il cosiddetto ‘controesodo' dei monfalconesi, l'orrore dell'Isola Calva, le guerre in Croazia e in Bosnia dopo la dissoluzione del 1991, l'assiduo impegno come inviato di guerra e animatore di iniziative umanitarie e pacifiste. Impegnato attivamente come giornalista presso «La Voce del popolo», quotidiano in lingua italiana dell'Istria e Quarnero, nel 1960 finisce in carcere come ‘nemico del popolo' per un articolo contrario all'ortodossia ufficiale e il giornale lo licenzia perché considerato poco malleabile alle direttive politiche. Nelle difficoltà di sfamare la famiglia, Emilio trova la sua via di salvezza nella poesia e nelle collaborazioni con i giornali italiani. Valerio di Donato (Teramo, 1955) cresciuto e ha studiato a Treviso, e si è laureato in Scienze Politiche a Padova. Alla fine degli anni '80 si è trasferito a Brescia, dove tutt'ora risiede e ove è stato per ventidue anni giornalista presso il «Giornale di Brescia» nella sezione interni/esteri. Attivamente impegnato nel mondo della divulgazione culturale, scrive per il blog «Il Diario online». Nel 2006 ha pubblicato ISTRIANIERI. Storie di esilio (Liberedizioni, Gavardo, bs), e nel 2021 Le fiamme dei Balcani (Oltre Edizioni). Nei primi anni Novanta si appassiona alla ‘questione istriana', alle vicende degli esuli giuliano-dalmati e alle guerre in ex Jugoslavia. Ha realizzato articoli e reportage sul territorio in Istria, Croazia, Serbia e Bosnia, anche come inviato del «Giornale di Brescia» a Belgrado durante e dopo le guerre degli anni Novanta. Da questa esperienza trae l'ispirazione per i suoi romanzi.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

From the war zones of Bosnia to the frontlines of Gaza, Christiane Amanpour has reported from the epicentres of global upheaval for over three decades. Her commitment to being “truthful, not neutral” made her one of the most respected correspondents of her generation and a sharp, unwavering voice in the age of misinformation.In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O'Brien sits down with Christiane to explore the emotional and political terrain of her career. They trace her journey from Tehran to CNN's international anchor desk, discussing the deep personal impact of motherhood, the shifting challenges for women in journalism, and the influence of her high-profile marriage to diplomat Jamie Rubin. From candid reflections on the media's role in Trump-era America to her evolving understanding of clarity, empathy and leadership, this is a conversation shaped by the past but rooted firmly in the turbulent present.Christiane also opens up about her new podcast, The Ex Files, co-hosted with her ex-husband Jamie Rubin. Told through the prism of their 20-year marriage and subsequent divorce, the series explores the biggest issues of the day and the historical moments that shaped them- from Donald Trump's return to office, to the escalating global economic crisis, the war in Gaza, and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine- all examined through lived history on opposite sides.Listen to The Ex Files here

With Eliot still on the road, Eric welcomes Dennis Ross, Counselor and William Davidson Distinguished Fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and former Director of Policy Planning under James Baker, Special Middle East Envoy under President Clinton among several other high level national security positions at State, Defense and the White House under Presidents Carter, Reagan, Bush 41, Clinton, and Obama.

In this concluding episode of iGaming Daily's deep dive into Eastern European markets, host Ted Menmuir is joined once again by Ilya Machavariani, Founder and CEO of 4H Agency, to explore the fast-evolving regulatory environment across the Balkans. With sweeping changes underway, the episode equips the SBC audience with practical insights and strategic guidance for navigating this multifaceted region. Ilya emphasises the importance of understanding local specificities, highlighting how cultural, historical, and linguistic overlaps contribute to both collaboration and complexity among countries like Serbia, Greece, and Romania.Listeners will gain an on-the-ground view of the unique regulatory dynamics in countries such as Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, and North Macedonia. From Albania's ongoing transition between white and grey markets to Montenegro's controversial digital payment ban, each jurisdiction presents its own challenges and opportunities. Ilya also points out the broader forces shaping policy—such as political instability, protection of vulnerable populations, and the role of gambling as a politicised issue—underscoring how public perception and youth protection are being used to justify stricter regulations.The episode concludes with a forward-looking discussion on 2025, where reforms are expected to reshape markets in Romania, Croatia, Montenegro, and Serbia. As Ilya explains, EU integration efforts—or the lack thereof—continue to influence regulatory harmonisation across the region. For operators eyeing Eastern Europe, this episode delivers a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between national policies, industry trends, and geopolitical pressures that will define the region's iGaming future.Host: Ted MenmuirGuest:  Ilya MachavarianiProducer: Anaya McDonaldEditor: James RossiGaming Daily is the official podcast of SBC Summit Malta.

The Bosnian War in the early 1990s was at the time the bloodiest conflict on European soil since World War II. Some 100,000 people were killed and more than 2 million displaced amid widespread ethnic cleansing and massacres. In 1995, the warring parties struck a power-sharing deal in negotiations just outside Dayton, Ohio, in what came to be known as the Dayton Accords. But the deal didn't really resolve the underlying problems. Bosnia continues to be plagued by ethnic division, and the country's political structure is widely seen as ineffective and unstable. Welcome to Counterpoint. On each episode, we look at one pressing question facing world leaders—from two opposing points of view.  In our season finale, we're tackling the question: Did the Dayton Accords set Bosnia up for failure? Arguing that the agreement put Bosnia on a path to perpetual crisis is Jasmin Mujanović, a senior nonresident fellow at New Lines Institute. He is the author of two books, Hunger and Fury: The Crisis of Democracy in the Balkans and  The Bosniaks: Nationhood After Genocide. And making the case that the Dayton Accords were essential to bringing peace and maintaining stability is Chris Hill. A career diplomat, Hill was part of the U.S. delegation that brokered the agreement. Most recently, he served as the⁠ U.S. ambassador to Serbia⁠ under President Joe Biden. Counterpoint is a production of Foreign Policy, in partnership with the Doha Forum. The show is hosted by Sasha Polakow-Suransky. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week we revisit our conversation with the former Chief Judge of the County Court of Victoria, The Hon. Peter Kidd. During his first few years in a commercial firm, Peter was unsure if law was for him, but a decision to move to crime ignited his passion for the profession. After his time at the Commonwealth DPP, he went to the bar and was quickly working on very large and often high profile cases, honing his skills and advocacy style, often under immense pressure. Peter also managed to combine his love of travel with his love of the law, working as a prosecutor at the War Crimes Tribunal in Bosnia; another challenging, enriching and fascinating chapter of his career. Our episode covers all of this and of course his role as The Chief, and is an enlightening and fascinating conversation.www.greenslist.com.au/podcast

Only a small fraction of military veterans become priests, and fewer still find their calling in an independent Catholic tradition like the Celtic Christian Church. In this inspiring episode of Your Radical Truth, host Margaret Mary O'Connor welcomes Father Thomas Marble, a combat medic turned priest, healer, and author. Father Thomas shares how a life of constant relocation, 22 years in the military, and a deep yearning for spiritual truth led him to Celtic Christianity. He opens up about his experiences in Bosnia, his training in psychiatric nursing and chaplaincy, and how divine guidance pointed him toward a more inclusive, healing-centered form of faith. Discover how his novel The Mission blends fantasy with Celtic wisdom, why radical hospitality is central to his ministry, and how his current studies in herbalism are helping him prepare for a new chapter of holistic healing. Tune in for a moving conversation about service, sacred calling, women priests, and the power of spiritual authenticity. Learn more at www.YourRadicalTruth.com/037-Father-Thomas-Marble

Send us a textIn this episode, we meet with Maryann Walters who navigates life as a true digital nomad, exploring Europe with her husband, their dog, and their bicycles.Marianne's journey began with determination in 2020, when she specifically sought out remote work that would accommodate a travel lifestyle. After securing a remote position and spending three years renovating their Reno home to make it rental-ready, she and her husband embarked on their European adventure, starting in Belgium.Their time in Belgium revealed a cycling paradise where the sport is revered like football in America. But their journey was shaped by visa constraints – as Americans, they could only stay in the European Union for three months without special documentation.This limitation led them to creative solutions, including stays in non-EU countries like Andorra (a tiny nation between France and Spain) and Bosnia to "reset" their visa clock. Each location brought unique challenges and rewards and stark differences in infrastructure and environment across countries.Through it all, Marianne has maintained her professional commitments while forming deep connections to places they lived for months at a time – a depth of experience inaccessible to typical tourists. Her story reveals both the extraordinary freedom of the digital nomad lifestyle and its very real challenges, offering valuable insights for anyone dreaming of breaking free from geographical constraints.Ready to reimagine what's possible with remote work and international living?

Nesta conversa comprovei minha percepção de que em nosso planeta não existem fronteiras. Ao remover todos os bloqueios históricos e ideias equivocadas que nos afastam de culturas, povos, idiomas e crenças diferentes, podemos de fato abraçar terras estrangeiras que nos acolhem e viver integralmente as belezas de uma jornada de patriotismo global. Convido a todos para conhecer David Saunders, um inglês com espírito livre, fez uma carreira lindíssima nas Organizações das Nações Unidas, gerenciando importantes projetos em diversas áreas para o desenvolvimento econômico e social, integração e bem-estar de populações no Sudão do Sul, Albania, Cazaquistão, Bosnia e Herzegovina, Kenia, Malasia, Uganda, Oman, Qatar, Paquistão, Brasil entre outros. Depois dessa breve introdução, nos resta sentar com calma e curiosidade para tentar aprender lições de resiliência, humildade, sagacidade e empatia de quem viveu 500 anos em seus reluzentes 60, agora aposentado em terras Portuguesas se dedica aos prazeres refinados dos jogos de tabuleiro, a mesa de bilhar, uma boa cerveja na pressão e a conversar com seus amigos multi-nacionais. Neutralidade, simplicidade, amizades e bons relacionamentos e identificar o mito que afasta da missão são chaves para o sucesso sempre. Venha navegar pelas ondas das nações distantes dos eixos turísticos para entender o que é de fato ser Expatriado, trabalhar, viver, entregar-se a rotina de países exóticos, entender o significado da palavra missão, quando e onde o valor das coisas simples amplificam o significado do bem-estar individual e coletivo. (EN) LIVING ABROAD, FROM EMPLOYEE TO RETIRED In this conversation I confirmed my perception that Earth hasn’t had borders. By removing all historical bias and mistaken ideas which separate one from another cultures, peoples, languages ​​and beliefs, we can truly embrace foreign lands that welcome us and fully experience the beauty of a journey of global patriotism. I invite everyone to meet David Saunders, a British with a free spirit, who made an outstanding career in United Nations, managing important projects in various areas for economic and social development, integration and well-being of populations in South Sudan, Albania, Kazakhstan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kenya, Malaysia, Uganda, Oman, Qatar, Pakistan, Brazil, among others. After this brief introduction, we can only sit down relaxed and curious to try to learn lessons of resilience, humility, sagacity and empathy from someone who lived 500 years in his shining 60s, now retired in Portuguese lands, dedicating himself to refined pleasures of board games, pool table, good draft beers and chatting with his multinational friends. Come sailing the waves of nations far from the tourist hubs to understand what it really is living as an expatriate, working, dedicating yourself to the routine of exotic countries, understanding the meaning of “mission”, when and where the value of simple things amplifies the meaning of individual and collective well-being. Neutrality, simplicity, friendships and good relationships and identifying the myth that takes you away from your mission are always keys to success.

Today we're diving into the underground world of fungi with Olga from Mushroom Mountain. She grew up foraging mushrooms in the forests of Bosnia and Hercegovina, learning from her grandparents which ones to eat, which to toss, and how to live with the land instead of just on it. These days, she runs Mushroom Mountain, a powerhouse operation producing spawn for edible and medicinal varieties, plus mushroom extracts and honeys under the Mycomatrix label. But that's just scratching the surface. Olga also leads a wild mushroom food safety certification program that's FDA-endorsed and accepted by seven states so far. She's … Continue reading →

Rising through the ranks of the Communist Party, he became Serbia's president in 1989 and quickly moved to consolidate power by revoking the autonomy of Kosovo and Vojvodina. His leadership fueled a wave of Serbian nationalism and played a major role in the wars in Croatia, Bosnia, and later Kosovo, supporting Serbian forces involved in ethnic violence and atrocities.Milošević's regime was marked by authoritarian control, suppression of opposition, and state-controlled media. Though he maintained popular support in the early years by presenting himself as a defender of Serbs, his policies led to international isolation, UN sanctions, and ultimately NATO intervention. In 1999, following a brutal crackdown on ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, NATO launched a bombing campaign against Serbia.Domestically, economic hardship and political repression led to growing dissatisfaction. After a disputed election in 2000, massive protests forced Milošević to resign. He was arrested in 2001 and extradited to the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in The Hague, where he faced charges of war crimes, including genocide. He died in 2006 during the trial.source

A spark of madness is often the first step toward creation. On today's episode, we welcome Bojan Dulabic, a passionate Vancouver-based filmmaker who pulled off a small miracle—he made a full-length zombie movie for just $5,000. But this isn't just a story of budgeting brilliance; it's a tale of relentless passion, artistic vision, and the kind of self-taught wisdom you can't get in film school.Born in Bosnia, raised in Germany and Croatia, and finally settled in Canada, Bojan Dulabic's journey into filmmaking is stitched together by war, displacement, and a child's fascination with VHS tapes in his mother's shop. His early life sounds like something out of a global coming-of-age novel. And perhaps that nomadic upbringing seeded in him a gift for observation—a key trait in any great storyteller. When he finally turned his teenage creativity into a film project in high school, something clicked. Not just the shutter on a camera, but the internal compass of a man who knew he had to follow the path of cinema, even if it meant doing it on his own terms.This wasn't a journey paved in gold. His first feature, shot for $4,000, was a comedy that taught him the ropes. His follow-up? A feature-length zombie film titled Project Eugenics.What could have been a cliché genre dive instead becomes a thoughtful narrative on misinformation, the chaos of modern life, and yes—zombies as metaphors. “To me, a zombie flick... it's not about the zombies. It's always about something else,” Bojan reflects. In his hands, the walking dead become symbols of mass confusion, manipulation, and the blurred lines of truth in our hyper-connected world.There is a playful seriousness to Bojan's philosophy. He reveres Romero and admires Rodriguez, but he walks his own road. Like Alan Watts would muse about the dancer and the dance, Bojan seems less concerned with final outcomes and more with being in the creative flow—tripping over obstacles and finding meaning in the madness. He shares stories of juggling a wedding, a tight shooting schedule, and DIY visual effects like a magician with duct tape. His secret? A mindset that embraces “safe confusion”—a term borrowed from Tarantino—that invites the audience into mystery without losing them.What's more, Bojan brings a rare humility to the table. He speaks about his cast and crew with deep respect, understanding that low-budget filmmaking doesn't give you the license to burn out others for your dream. His actors often worked just a few days, each scene scheduled with precision. His respect for time, energy, and goodwill may be the real reason his film came together. For him, filmmaking is not just a creative act but a spiritual contract—with himself, with his collaborators, and with the audience.This podcast isn't just a technical breakdown of low-budget indie cinema. It's a spiritual blueprint for artists who feel the fire but lack the funds. Bojan's approach is radical because it's so simple: take stock of what you have, and build from there. Whether it's stock footage, free VFX plugins, or your friend's living room—use it. More importantly, finish it. Don't wait for permission. Make your movie now.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.

Why do ordinary people carry out extraordinary harm when simply told to do so? From the Holocaust to the genocides in Rwanda, Bosnia, and Cambodia, history shows how obedience to authority can lead to unimaginable acts. But what's happening in the brain when we follow orders—even ones that conflict with our morals? In this episode, we speak with neuroscientist Emilie Caspar, whose groundbreaking research explores how authority influences cognition and behavior. Drawing from real-life accounts of genocide perpetrators and cutting-edge neuroscience, Caspar reveals how obedience can short-circuit independent decision-making—often without us realizing it. Emilie Caspar is a professor at Ghent University, Belgium, where she leads the Moral and Social Brain Lab. She specializes in social neuroscience. Her main research areas focus on obedience and how restricting one's autonomy and choice options impacts the brain. Her new book is Just Following Orders: Atrocities and the Brain Science of Obedience.

In this heart-wrenching and hopeful episode of Domestic Dad: Cleaning Up the Mess, host Nick Barnett sits down with Esmir, a father whose life has been marked by both deep wounds and divine miracles.   Born in Bosnia and raised in the Midwest after fleeing war with his family, Esmir opens up about the challenges of growing up as an immigrant—navigating a new culture, emotional isolation, and generational trauma. But it wasn't until his youngest son, Jack, was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive brain tumor that Esmir's life truly cracked open.   What followed was a battle no parent is prepared for. In this raw conversation, Esmir shares how he confronted his own past, leaned into therapy, and began a spiritual journey that helped him support his son through countless rounds of chemo, a high-risk brain surgery, and ultimately, a miracle remission. Along the way, the Cedar Valley community showed up in force—proving that no one fights alone.   This episode is a powerful testament to resilience, redemption, and the love of a father willing to do anything for his family. If you've ever wondered where strength comes from in life's darkest moments, Esmir's story will show you.   Timestamps: 00:00 – Introduction and Greetings 00:27 – Childhood Memories and Upbringing 03:35 – Struggles and Spiritual Journey 06:55 – Father-Son Relationship and Therapy 12:28 – Marriage and Early Fatherhood 26:13 – Jack's Diagnosis and Hospital Journey 41:17 – Cherishing Tatum's Memory 42:40 – The Strength of a Young Angel 44:09 – Community Support and Financial Relief 45:27 – Faith and Personal Growth 46:27 – Jackie's Battle with Cancer 47:28 – The High-Intensity Chemo Journey 50:10 – The Emotional Toll and Family Dynamics 53:36 – The Miracle of Remission 01:06:04 – Reflections on Parenting and Faith 01:13:24 – Gratitude and Future Outlook #JackieStrong #FaithOverFear #ChildhoodCancerAwareness #DadLifeUnfiltered #PersonalGrowthJourney #MiracleStory #HealingThroughFaith #BosnianAmericanJourney #StrongFathersStrongFamilies #DomesticDadPodcast   Website: www.domesticdadproject.com    YouTube: www.youtube.com/@DomesticDadProject   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DOMESTICDADPROJECT   Insta: https://www.instagram.com/the_domestic_dad_project
