In March 2025, radio frequencies worldwide stopped carrying Voice of America broadcasts for the first time in 83 years. President Donald Trump's administration had imposed funding cuts on the US Agency for Global Media with the White House accusing the broadcaster of being "anti-Trump", "radical" and "leftist”. While the cuts are being disputed in courts, Josephine McDermott traces the beginnings of the overseas broadcaster which was designed to counter Nazi propaganda. In the first Voice of America broadcast in February 1942 it promised, “The news may be good or bad; we shall tell you the truth”. We hear the testimony of Eugene Kern who walked in one day in 1942 to casually ask about a job, and was put to work straight away producing a Finnish programme – unable to speak a word of the language. He says, “It was a wild place. Every week a new language service began”.By the end of World War Two, Voice of America was broadcasting more than 3,000 programmes in 40 languages every week. This Witness History is produced using the archives of the US Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training, and the US National Archives and Records Administration.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past. We take you to the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes every day, we take you back in time and all over the world, to examine wars, coups, scientific discoveries, cultural moments and much more. Recent episodes explore everything from the death of Adolf Hitler, the first spacewalk and the making of the movie Jaws, to celebrity tortoise Lonesome George, the Kobe earthquake and the invention of superglue. We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: Eva Peron – Argentina's Evita; President Ronald Reagan and his famous ‘tear down this wall' speech; Thomas Keneally on why he wrote Schindler's List; and Jacques Derrida, France's ‘rock star' philosopher. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the civil rights swimming protest; the disastrous D-Day rehearsal; and the death of one of the world's oldest languages.(Photo: Gene Kern broadcasting in about 1960.

Laurent had the pleasure and privilege of sitting down with Markus Rauroma, CEO of Fortum, during the Eurelectric “Power Play” conference in Brussels this June. Fortum, the Finnish energy company also active in Sweden and Poland, finds itself right on the front line when it comes to tensions with Russia—not exactly your average utility boardroom drama. The conversation kicks off with Markus's recent election as President of Eurelectric, taking over from none other than Leo “the Great” Birnbaum, CEO of E.ON.We talk about the challenges Markus has faced so far, including how Fortum managed to steer through the stormy waters of the Ukraine war, and what's ahead for the industry. Spoiler: it's not all doom and gloom—there's strategy, resilience, and some surprisingly good teamwork. Markus rolls out Eurelectric's Manifesto centred on customers, security of supply and digitisation (AI). Markus introduces his vice-presidential duo: Georgios Stassis (CEO of PPC) and Catherine MacGregor (CEO of Engie). According to him, it's a well-balanced trio—think energy world's version of the Avengers, but with spreadsheets and grid stability. He also gives kudos to Kristian Ruby, Secretary General of Eurelectric, and the Brussels team for their stellar behind-the-scenes work.The chat then shifts to the Baltics, one of the rare places in Europe where electricity demand is actually growing. Fortum's been ahead of the game there too: Markus reveals they now have over 1.3 GW of capacity lined up and ready to power new datacenters—because TikTok videos don't host themselves. Of course, we couldn't ignore the constant cyber-attacks and sabotage attempts coming from Russia. Markus shares how Fortum has learned to deal with them—let's just say they don't flinch easily anymore. And finally, a public mea culpa: Laurent repeatedly referred to Finland as part of Scandinavia. A common slip-up. For the record: Finland is next to Scandinavia, but it's not in it. The Finns are Nordic, not Scandinavian—but much like their neighbours to the west, they handled the mix-up with trademark cool. No sauna ban issued. We thank Kristian Ruby and all the Eurelectric team for organising this recording and putting together such a great summit.

Pascal Papathemelis: The Mobile Product Owner—Why Great POs Move Around and Talk to People Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. The Great Product Owner: The Visionary Communicator Pascal describes great Product Owners as excellent communicators who possess the courage to confront stakeholders when necessary. These exceptional POs thrive as decision makers and understand the importance of being mobile - they have "legs and walk around to meet stakeholders" rather than remaining isolated in their offices. Great Product Owners maintain a clear vision and excel at breaking down products into granular items that teams can easily pull from the backlog. They demonstrate superior backlog management skills and understand how to focus on creating systems that collect valuable feedback. Pascal emphasizes that it's critical to help Product Owners develop these capabilities so they can flourish in their role as the primary decision makers for their products. The Bad Product Owner: The Dominating Manager Pascal encountered a challenging Product Owner who exhibited several destructive anti-patterns. This PO dominated meetings by talking most of the time while the team remained silent, creating an environment where team members felt unsafe to contribute. The situation was complicated by the fact that this Product Owner also served as the line manager for the team members, blurring the boundaries between product decisions and personnel management. This dual role created a power dynamic that inhibited healthy team collaboration. The PO went so far as to stop retrospectives, even when Pascal explained how these sessions could benefit the entire team. Pascal identifies a critical anti-pattern: when a Product Owner has no channel of communication or coaching support, and they resist help, it becomes impossible to improve the situation. Self-reflection Question: What steps could you take to help Product Owners in your organization develop better communication skills and create safer environments for team collaboration?

Pascal Papathemelis: Selecting the Appropriate Agile Values for Organizational Impact Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Pascal defines success for Scrum Masters through his recent mantra of "effectiveness over efficiency," "outcome over output," and "create value for the customer." Working with a client introducing a new digital platform, he focuses on understanding the value for both the organization and end customers while minimizing confusion in the process. Pascal emphasizes the importance of ensuring work sustainability over time by focusing on Agile values and principles and their deep understanding. He customizes the Agile Manifesto's values and principles for each organization, such as focusing on customer value, collaboration, and constant learning. Pascal strategically highlights the principles and values that address the biggest challenges facing the organization at any given time, making Agile concepts relevant and actionable for the specific context. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Sailboat Pascal recommends the sailboat retrospective as his preferred format, though he emphasizes that the choice depends on context and team focus. He values this metaphor-based retrospective because it helps teams discuss critical aspects of their work through different perspectives. The sailboat format allows teams to explore what propels them forward (wind), what holds them back (anchors), what they need to watch out for (rocks), and their destination (island). Pascal also uses timeline retrospectives and stresses the importance of varying retrospective formats to prevent teams from falling into routine patterns that might limit their ability to bring fresh insights to their work. He believes that good data and effective visualization are essential components of any successful retrospective format.

Pascal Papathemelis: From Waterfall to Agile—A Multi-Level Change Strategy Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Pascal describes a successful agile transformation where he collaborated with a fellow coach in the IT department of a large organization with a waterfall history and heavy documentation-driven processes. The two coaches worked together effectively, sharing information and scouting for opportunities to take action. They began with an assessment and discussions across IT, business, and management levels to understand the current state. Using the Cynefin framework to understand complexity, they conducted a two-day workshop to introduce Agile vocabulary, covering concepts like Push/Pull and process waste. The coaches operated at multiple levels simultaneously - working strategically with leadership who typically pushed excessive work to the organization, while also helping teams visualize their processes and clarify priorities. At the team level, they acted as Scrum Masters to demonstrate the role while mentoring the actual Scrum Master through one-on-one sessions. They also supported the Product Owner in understanding their role and used story maps to help visualize and organize work effectively. Self-reflection Question: How might collaborating with another coach or change agent amplify your effectiveness in leading organizational transformation? [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]
Pascal Papathemelis: The Hidden Cost of Removing Scrum Masters from High-Performing Teams Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Pascal shares a cautionary experience with mature Scrum teams that appeared to function flawlessly. These teams demonstrated excellent Scrum practices with minimal impediments, leading management to conclude that Scrum Masters were unnecessary. When management removed all Scrum Masters from the department, the previously high-performing teams began to struggle significantly. Team members had to absorb the responsibilities previously handled by their Scrum Masters, causing them to lose focus on their core value-creating work. Different teams adopted various approaches to fill the Scrum Master void, but none proved effective. Pascal reflects that the Scrum Masters could have made their value more visible by supporting Product Owners more actively and becoming more involved in team tasks. This experience taught him the importance of demonstrating the ongoing value that Scrum Masters provide, even when teams appear to be self-sufficient. Featured Book of the Week: Learning Out Loud—Community Learning and Networking Pascal draws his greatest inspiration not from a single book, but from active participation in the Agile community. He finds tremendous value in discussions within local communities, networking events, and sparring sessions with colleagues. Pascal particularly benefits from Agile Coaching circles in Helsinki, which provide practical knowledge and insights. He also gains inspiration from Agile conferences, but credits Agile Coaching Camps as having the biggest impact - these 2.5-day open space format events are intense and packed with valuable insights. Pascal recommends that Scrum Masters actively engage with their local Agile communities and attend coaching camps to accelerate their professional development and gain diverse perspectives. Self-reflection Question: How visible is the value you provide as a Scrum Master, and what steps could you take to make your contributions more apparent to your organization?

Pascal Papathemelis: From Mechanics to Human Factors—How Scrum Masters Grow Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Pascal shares his evolution as a Scrum Master, moving from focusing purely on the mechanics of Scrum to understanding the critical importance of human factors. Early in his career, Pascal worked with teams that struggled to achieve sprint goals, with stories floating from one sprint to another. Through retrospectives and continuous improvement, he learned essential tips like not taking too much into sprints and making stories smaller. However, Pascal's biggest transformation came when he shifted focus to human elements - involving everyone in the team, improving collaboration during refinement, and developing people's skills and attitudes. He emphasizes that every person is an individual with the intention to be their best, and a good Scrum Master must sense when something is wrong and create safe environments for open conversations. Pascal highlights the importance of corridor conversations and coffee machine breakthroughs, especially before COVID, and stresses the need to invest effort in how teams start, using models like Tuckman's team growth model and Diana Larsen's Team Liftoff approach. In this segment, we also refer to the episode with Arne Roock, about the importance of team design and setup in the success of teams. Self-reflection Question: How might shifting your focus from Scrum mechanics to human factors transform the way you support your team's growth and collaboration?

Story at-a-glance Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a serious condition where jawbone dies and fails to heal, and it's been linked to common bone drugs like bisphosphonates and denosumab A Finnish study found that people taking denosumab were five times more likely to develop MRONJ than those using bisphosphonates, with cancer patients and long-term users at highest risk Adding corticosteroids to bone drugs significantly worsened outcomes, multiplying the risk of jaw disease by up to six times in some users MRONJ often begins after dental procedures like extractions, but it also develops in people with gum disease or dentures — even without dental intervention Preventive dental care, a nutrient-rich diet, and lifestyle habits that support natural bone repair offer your best defense against this disfiguring and painful condition

Listener Dickson Mukisa from Uganda has been gazing up at the stars. But he's not making wishes. He wants to know whether we can harness their energy, in the same way we do with our OWN star – the sun. After all, they may seem small and twinkly to us, but each one is a gigantic flaming ball of energy, with a power outputs averaging around 40 quadrillion kilowatt-hours per year – EACH! With somewhere between 100 and 400 BILLION stars in our own galaxy alone, that's a lot of power! Can we get ‘solar power' from stars that are such a long way away from earth? And what might we use it for? Alex Lathbridge heads to the University College London Observatory, to peer through the eyepiece of an enormous telescope and see some stars for himself. Professor Steve Fossey explains just how much of the light energy of the stars reaches us on earth. In other words, how BRIGHT they are. Once the starlight reaches earth of course, we have to capture it. Could traditional solar panels do the job? Alex meets Professor Henry Snaith from the University of Oxford, to find out about the future of photovoltaic technology, and why it could all be heading out to space. Once in space, things start getting weird! What if we made an enormous fleet of solar panels, and put them all into orbit around a star, soaking up every last drop of that precious energy? That might sound like science fiction, but the idea has been around for decades. It's called a Dyson Sphere, or Dyson Swarm. Swedish researcher at the Insitute for Future Studies, Anders Sandberg explains how we might be able to build one around a neighbouring star... in around 10,000 years or so. But maybe it's not all about light. Finally, Alex explores the mysterious, invisible energy of the ‘solar wind', with Pekka Janhunen, Finnish physicist and inventor of the “E-Sail”, which might be able to harness the power of the stellar wind, too.

Episode 310 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features a couple-dip of feature interviews with Vancouver Canucks prospects Ty Young and Aku Koskenvuo.In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Young walks us through turning pro despite having a season of eligibility left in the CHL -- and we tell you why this is another sign the CHL is a big part of the Canadian goalie development challenges -- despite being good enough to finish top-10 in the ECHL with a .926 save percentage and go 8-3-0 in the AHL as a rookie, impressing the Canucks team that drafted him in 2022. Young talks about the biggest adjustments and differences at each level, which makes for a great spring board into our conversation with Finnish goalie Koskenvuo, who was drafted in 2021 and is preparing to follow Young's path after leaving Harvard University in the spring following three seasons. In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop It Goaltending U the App, we share tips on skate sharpening for parents. We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, which features a special 21-minute video of Hart Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck breaking down his positioning and save selection while watching a variety of different types of attacks.

In this ClimateGenn episode we are looking at 3 interviews recorded at the Arctic Repair Conference in Cambridge hosted by the Centre for Climate Repair at the University of Cambridge. In the 1st interview with Centre for Climate Repair director, Dr Shaun Fitzgerald, we touch on some of the theme emerging from the conference but also from the news cycle during London Climate Week that was running concurrently.In the 2nd interview I speak with Anni Pokela from the Finnish organisation Operaatio Arktis – an emerging think tank looking to articulate informed discussions around extreme climate impacts, tipping points and geoengineering also called climate interventions. Operaatio Arktis have gained international recognition for their clear engagement on these complex and often taboo topics. The 3rd interview in this series is with Justus Lehtisaari also from Operaatio Arktis. Both these conversations are recorded during the evening drinks in Cambridge and attempt to explore how their work interacts with such a broad range of issues that we are collectively facing today.There are 5 more interviews from the Arctic Repair conference that include Indigenous Climate representative from Tuvalu, Faatupu Simeti discussing the existential threat of sea-level rise and inundation, as well as a conversation with Julius Mihkkal Eriksen Lindi, PROJECT COORDINATOR at the Arctic and Environmental Unit from the Saami Council who is tasked with trying to see if climate interventions can help preserve their way of life or be rejected as dangerous to life.There are also a second set of discussions with Kerry Nickols from Ocean Visions, Jason Box from the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland, and Rafe Pomerance, a legendary climate policy expert based in Washington. I have a backlog of interviews waiting to be published and recorded. I will uploaded a preview of my interview this week with David Spratt from Australia, an in-depth discussion of policy and risk response. David is always very well informed and has much to say. Thank you for listening.
...And Oceans is a Finnish band known for its unique blend of extreme music, evolving since their formation in 1995 after the disbandment of Festerday. They explore a mix of genres, including black metal, classical, and industrial, while consistently maintaining their core sound. Founding member Timo Kontio emphasizes their commitment to musical exploration without sacrificing their identity.Their early albums, *The Dynamic Gallery of Thoughts* (1998) and *The Symmetry of I: The Circle of O* (1999), featured a fusion of powerful synths, raw guitars, and gothic elements. A significant shift occurred with the albums *A.M.G.O.D.* (2001) and *Cypher* (2002), transforming their sound into a heavier, cybernetic style complemented by industrial beats.After a brief hiatus and a name change to Havoc Unit, they returned to the ...And Oceans identity in 2017, releasing two albums, *Cosmic World Mother* (2020) and *As in Gardens, So in Tombs* (2023). These works showcase their ability to reinvent themselves while retaining the melancholic essence characteristic of the Finnish music scene, led by the emotive guitar work of Kontio and Teemu Saari. @andoceans4502 @seasonofmist @AndNowTheBand Official Links:Bandcamp: https://andoceans.bandcamp.com/Metal Archives: https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/...and_Oceans/231Passionate about metal?

This is a joint Sauna Talk podcast with Linda and Otto who also run the Sprit of Sauna podcast from Finland as well as Sipoonjoki Heritage Sauna, just outside Helsinki, Finland. Linda and Otto are business partners who share a common interest in preserving the cultural roots and history of smoke sauna, promoting the rituals and power behind, and help create a place and platform for education and retreats at their sauna facility in nature, just outside Helsinki, Finland. Sauna Talk: Sipoonjoki heritage sauna Sipoonjoki's heritage sauna offers a unique experience in a country sauna, where bathing leaves you feeling especially cleansed and refreshed. www.saunotus.fi I'd call Sipoonjoki a “smoke sauna haven.” For guests traveling to Finland or within Finland, the top features include: – their flagship smoke sauna, built traditionally, within the hill mound with stone walls. – saunotus ceremonies and treatments – using plants and herbs, growing on sight and in the shadows nearby. – education and retreats. The day of my visit, as I was departing after my session, a half dozen Finnish ladies were arriving for their private smoke sauna ritual. That's the beauty of smoke sauna – and maybe I should describe smoke sauna for listeners who may not be familiar. Journey to Sipoonjoki Heritage Sauna Otto offers to come pick me up in downtown Helsinki. But learning about he and Linda's busy schedule (as owners, operators, parents to each having their own children, etc.) I will have none of it. I love taking public transport in Europe, and Finland is no exception. I take the metro to the central train station and with train stop on my phone. It doesn't take me long to find a younger, sharper, more localized Helsinki -ite at the station to direct me to platform 7. From there, I board the commuter train. From there, I confirm that once the train pushes off, i'm the third stop north of town. I disembark, and there's Otto waiting for me with a big smile, standing in front of the photo wrapped passenger van. Hugs and hello, and off we go to Sipoonjoki. The drive is just long enough for us to help orient myself to where we are. And we find the common english word, The tool we're thinking of is called a compass (or drafting compass). You remember from elementary school. It has one pointed leg and one leg that holds a pencil or lead, allowing you to draw precise circles or arcs. It's commonly used in geometry, drafting, woodworking, and metalworking. Well, this is part of the magic of Linda and Otto's sauna retreat center. The compass point being Helsinki central, and within the drawn circle is Sipoonkorpi National Park. We are heading for smoke sauna. As Nature is such a critically wonderful component to good sauna. And, here we are, as if transformed to hundreds of kilometers away, yet just close to Helsinki. I ask: for visitors, car is the best option. But if a tourist were visiting without, what is the best way to get close to you, is it the train that I took, or the bus? “There is a bus stop relatively close and during summer weekends there is a bus that comes directly to the sauna.” Gotta love Finland. Beyond the obvious My latest Europe trip – 40 saunas in 12 days carried with it a general theme: beyond the obvious. For example, all sauna tourists will hit Löyly in Helsinki, yet few venture on the path less taken to Sipoonjoki. And stepping out of the van with Otto and meeting Linda, on this end of May early afternoon, I'm met with the sound of birds and soft breeze blowing through the tall spruce trees, take sight of the grounds and smoke sauna awaiting me, and i'm filled with joy and calm for what exists beyond the obvious. We settle into one of their outbuildings, get mic'ed up, and off we go. A joint podcast, The Spirit of Sauna meets SaunaTimes Sauna Talk… and welcome to this episode with Linda and Otto, where we get right into the spirit together with you alongside. Etusivu

This week, Cory sits down with Hanno Möttölä—Finland's first NBA player, University of Utah Hall of Famer, and current assistant coach for the Finnish national team. Hanno's journey spans from dominating youth basketball in Europe to starring for Utah in the NCAA championship game, breaking into the NBA with the Atlanta Hawks, and later shaping European and Finnish basketball as a coach. In this episode, Hanno delivers practical, no-nonsense advice for families navigating the prep school and college basketball pipeline. He breaks down what truly separates future pros: the will and skill to practice, finding the right fit (not just the biggest name), and the importance of honest coaching over empty promises. Hanno also tackles the impact of NIL and transfer rules, why immediate playing time matters more than program prestige, and how European development models differ from the U.S. system.

What's the number on a crosswalk countdown that makes you stop walking? We debate that — plus proper airport attire, summer sleep struggles, and whether Roz would ever hang in silence, Finnish-style. Also today: a fan sends Mocha a clip of someone who sounds exactly like Shem, a 12-year-old offers dating advice, and Roz gets called out for forgetting sunscreen. Plus, we get your reaction to seeing F1: The Movie, the celeb Mount Rushmore with zero haters, and Roz explains the art of the perfect baked potato. Maurie gets an exclusive first comment from director Shawn Levy about the Netflix Madonna series he's working on. Roz's cats are mad at him, and Bashir checks in about hating the heat.
In this episode Lee and Daniel tackle two films that have nothing to do with each other, but Daniel wanted to talk about them. First off it's a fairly breezy conversation about the Finnish "kill all the Nazis" WW2 action film "Sisu" (2022), directed by Jalmari Helander. Then they cover the film Apple decided to buy and then abuse like its red-headed stepchild, "Wolfs" (2024), directed by Jon Watts. What Lee has watched as of late is also talked about. "Sisu" IMDB "Wolfs" IMDB Lee on Bluesky. Daniel on Bluesky, his other Podcast, and his Patreon. Featured Music: "In Search of Gold" by Juri Seppä & Tuomas Wäinölä; "Mr. Vain" by Culture Beat; and "One More Night" by Phil Collins.
Brothers Drew and Eric discuss the 2022 Finnish film Sisu which is… doing a thing. If you want to see Nazi's killed in an over-the-top gory way, this is the film for you. Wes Anderson it ain't. Housekeeping begins at 25:20 during which they discuss a bad Captain America movie, the Matrix, Dirty Dancing, and sending a child to sleepaway camp.

The kidnap, murder and rape of Sarah Everard was deemed a moment of reckoning in 2021. The Angiolini Inquiry, which investigated this case, found that Wayne Couzens was reported eight times for indecent exposure. The report also found that the offence "may indicate a potential trajectory towards even more serious sexual and violent offending". A new report by The Telegraph has investigated cases of indecent exposure since Sarah Everard's murder and found that police are catching and prosecuting fewer offenders, despite a big increase in the number of offences reported. The paper's Home Affairs Editor, Charles Hymas, joins Nuala McGovern, as does Zoë Billingham, former HM Inspector of Constabulary.Natalie Dormer has graced our screens as Margaery Tyrell in Game of Thrones, Anne Boleyn in The Tudors and in films including The Hunger Games: Mockingjay and The Wasp. She's now back on stage as Anna in a new adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's epic novel Anna Karenina. Set in 19th century Russia, Anna is the wife of a powerful government official, who dares to step outside the bounds of society to risk a dangerous and destructive love affair. Natalie talks to Nuala about the role, her career and more.World fertility rates are in 'unprecedented decline' according to a survey of 14,000 people by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the UN's reproductive rights agency. One in five respondents said they haven't had – or don't expect they will have - the number of children they want. The survey spanned 14 countries on five continents, which are home to a third of the world's population. Nuala is joined by demographer Anna Rotkirch, who has researched fertility intentions in Europe and advises the Finnish government on population policy, to discuss the findings and their impact. Jessica Stanley's novel Consider Yourself Kissed tells the story of Coralie, a copywriter who moves from Australia to London just before she turns 30 and falls in love with political journalist Adam. Jessica tells Nuala about the book, which tracks 10 years of Coralie and Adam's lives from 2013 to 2023, taking in love, birth, illness and a particularly eventful period in British politics. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Sarah Jane Griffiths
In the mid-50s a pair of Finnish brothers had a terrifying, all too close encounter with a speeding saucer. While the boys were both scared by this near miss, for one of them—Osmo Liene — his ordeal was just beginning as just days later, at the stroke of midnight, a trio of aged aliens would invade his home to interrogate him... and reveal something that no one should ever know.

Could the latest Detroit Red Wings star be from Russia - and is he on his way? Tune in as we discuss the news of Dmitri Buchelnikov's Vityaz team in the KHL potentially dissolving, meaning he would be free to join the Grand Rapids Griffins and/or the Detroit Red Wings sooner than expected - what would that mean for other prospects like Brandsegg-Nygard (3:55)? Also, Steve Yzerman signing Jesse Kiiskinen to his entry-level contract, and what's next for the Finnish star (15:10). With Jason Robertson in trade rumors, would he be a worthwhile add for Steve Yzerman to bolster the Detroit Red Wings offense alongside Dylan Larkin, Lucas Raymond, Alex DeBrincat, Marco Kasper, and Patrick Kane? Would Sandin Pellikka, Danielson, or more be the ask, and how would his contract compare to Rantanen's? (19:30) After that, notes on Brock Nelson and Yanni Gourde signing, a conversation on income tax advantages in the NHL (36:20), and whether Jonathan Toews, Max Pacioretty, and Nic Hague could be potential Detroit Red Wings additions by Steve Yzerman (47:10). Next, our 2025 NHL Entry Draft Prospect Profile on Cullen Potter (and whether his comparisons to Dylan Larkin are accurate) as well as a revisit on Radim Mrtka (54:35).
