Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith welcome special guest founder of Scientists for EU and chair of European Movement UK, Mike Galsworthy to discuss whether it is better to unite pro-European forces behind one mission or let them be a lively, symbiotic ecosystem. Plus a deepdive into the UK's science and technology strategy. Join the US in deregulating? Or join Europe and actively drain science capacity from it? And of course 'Wokey Dokey' and 'Grin And Share It'. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** “As a campaigning organisation, you have to go to where people are - the spaces that they occupy, the informational areas that they're in, and in person. You have to meet them where they are both physically and in terms of opinion, whether ministers or voters.” “What we are talking about is not a political party winning, but rather how do you move all of UK society in the same direction. At each and every level [rejoining the EU] has to be made relevant to each and every community - personally, regionally, demographically.” “The gov't knows where the public is. The polling has been very clear for some time. The single most influential group that needs to step up right now is business - every size, every industry, every location. They need to step and push gov't towards EU alignment during this critical period in the run up to the [Starmer - von der Leyen] summit.” “There is a real opportunity right now, given the way Trump is behaving, for a ‘brain drain' from the States and diversion of talent that would usually flow to the States, especially from Global South countries worried about the racism and the barriers to funding. The UK and Europe should get together to move on this.” “With the falling apart of USAID, the soft power opportunity there, through science and health security, is huge. This is where both the UK and the EU are strong and trusted.” “Population decline is an existential threat to mature Western economies and soon they will find that they are actually in competition for immigration. The first such country to realise this, will reap huge benefits.” CALLS TO ACTION LINKS: Click here to ask your MP to read Best for Britain's Growth Report. Sign up for European Movement here.

Brahms' violin concerto is one of the most difficult works for any violinist to tackle. It is as virtuosic as the hardest piece of Paganini as well as being as musically complex as a Brahms symphony. It takes most violinists years or even decades to feel comfortable with this piece, and many violinists consider it a kind of Mount Everest. Why? What makes this piece so complex, and yet so beautiful? What kind of choices do violinists make in their interpretations? For today, I'm not only going to tell you about this piece and how Brahms composed it, but I'm also going to compare 3 different recordings of the piece(Heifetz, Oistrakh, and Ferras) in order to show you the differences in interpretations between these 3 titanic violinists. We'll also talk about many of the topics we've covered before with Brahms; continuous development, gorgeous melodies, and that amazing Brahmsian quality of both respecting established forms while constantly subtly subverting them. Let's start the climb together and get to know this remarkable piece. Join us!

In Ep. 5, The Life of Fritz Kreisler, pt. I tells the story of Vienna's greatest violinist, Fritz Kreisler, from birth to his marriage in the beginning of the 20th century. His rise to fame was an eventful one and we will see him grow from a normal little boy into a first rate wunderkind. Following the glories of his youth, Kreisler will give up the violin to pursue the medical arts and also do a bit of soldering. But in the end, the call of music was too great and he set his sights once more on a career as a virtuoso violinist. ---------------- For all things GCP Please rate, review, and subscribe on iTunes!
