Ja... ich weiß. Aber keine Angst, es wird nicht ganz so schlimm wie damals in den 80ern, oder den 60ern, von den 40ern gar nicht zu reden."Herr Falschgold hat gesagt, der Holocaust ist nicht mehr so schlimm!"Exakt.In meiner Jugend, in der DDR, liefen am Jahrestag der Befreiung des Konzentrationslagers Auschwitz noch Tausende von ehemaligen Häftlingen in ihren gestreiften Anzügen mit dem gelben Stern oder dem roten Dreieck die Strecke des Todesmarsches ab. Sowas brennt sich ein in ein Kinderhirn.Zwanzig Jahre später, in den Neunzigern, im Kibbuz in Israel als Freiwilliger, freundete ich mich mit einem Bewohner an. Er hieß Bedolf. Bedolf war ein alter Berliner mit Schnauze. Seine Heimat hatte er damals, im Jahr 1998, schon seit fünfundsechzig Jahren nicht mehr gesehen. Er hatte Anfang der Dreißiger, eher als viele andere, die Zeichen der Zeit erkannt und ging nach Palästina. Er hieß da noch Adolf, was ein ganz normaler Jungsname war, und hätte ich in '98 schon gewusst, was ich heute von der Geschichte des Zionismus, Palästinas und der Gründung des Staates Israel weiß, hätten wir ein wirkliches Gesprächsthema gehabt. So habe ich ihn natürlich befragt, ob er wirklich Bedolf heiße (unklar) und über den Holocaust. Bedolf hat mich nur angeschaut, leise und bestimmt gesagt, dass er lange vorher rausgekommen ist und damit war das Thema erledigt.Heute in den 2020ern gibt es nahezu keine Überlebenden der Judenvernichtung mehr. Die Erinnerungen an die Shoa sind von den Opfern auf deren Kinder, Enkel, Großenkel übergegangen, von der Tätergeneration auf die unseren.Die Shoa war ein Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit. So ist sie definiert, haben wir alle gelernt. Das Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit. Aber man kann das "Das" noch so kursiv setzen, man wird ihm nicht gerecht. Gleich gar nicht in Worte zu fassen ist die Innenansicht, die Gefühle der Überlebenden und ihrer Nachfahren (und nur um die wird es in diesem Text gehen). Das muss versucht werden, klar. Wenn man über etwas sprechen will, braucht es Worte. Aber "Shoa" ist zu abstrakt, "Holocaust" zu institutionalisiert. Ok, nennen wir es "Trauma"? Das ist vielleicht zu allgemein, aber hat den Vorteil, dass es die Gefühlswelt der Opfer in den Empfindungsbereich ihrer Mitmenschen bringt. Trauma kennt jeder vom Sport, aus der Liebe, aus dem Leben. Damit ist es vielleicht doch das beste Wort, wenn man über das sprechen möchte, worüber man nicht sprechen kann. Heute nicht mehr, weil fast alle Überlebenden tot sind, damals nicht, weil sie noch gelebt haben. Aber wir müssen über den Holocaust sprechen!Das sagte sich Taffy Brodesser-Akner, nachdem sie mit ihrem Debutroman 2019 "Fleishman is in trouble" einen wirklichen Erfolg gelandet hatte. Die rasante Story um eine New Yorker Middle-Class-Familie (also aus unserer Sicht "f*****g rich"), in der unten, oben, männlich, weiblich, richtig und falsch wild durcheinandergewirbelt wurden, voller Überraschungen und mit genau der richtigen Mischung aus jiddisch/jüdisch/amerikanischer Stereotype und deren Brechen, war der reine fun.In den erzählenden Künsten sind Stereotype meist ein großer Spaß (wenn man auf sowas steht) und haben auch im realen Leben eine Funktion. Sie halten Erinnerungen wach, sie verbinden Gruppen, deren Individuen oft gar nicht so viel gemein haben; da muss man manchmal ein bisschen nachhelfen, passend machen, verallgemeinern. Die Kehrseite des gruppenverbindenden Holzschnittes ist, dass ein Stereotyp abgrenzt, nach und von außen. Auch wenn der erste Gedanke in aufgeklärten Kreisen ein "Nonononono!" ist: "Abgrenzung böse! Pfui! Aus!" sollte man das anthropologisch neutral sehen. Nicht jede Abgrenzung ist eine Ausgrenzung, ein Akt der Gewalt; zumindest geht sie vom Grenzenziehen nicht zwangsläufig aus. Bei Juden ist die Abgrenzung nach ein paar tausend Jahren Verfolgung, mit der bekannten Kulmination vor achtzig Jahren, eher Selbstschutz. Man weiß, was man aneinander hat und damit kein anderer. Leider ist das neben seltsamen Haar- und Bartmoden, einer Sprache voller Rachenlaute und absurden Ideen, wie man einen Fisch FILLT, vor allem eines - ein Trauma.Nun können es nicht nur deutsche Schulkinder nicht mehr hören, wenn ihnen der Holocaust so erklärt wird, wie das noch vor fünfzig Jahren üblich war. Zu abstrakt, zu brutal oft, zu abstumpfend gleichzeitig, wird institutionalisiert erklärt, was nicht zu verstehen ist. Ein anderer Ansatz scheint nötig, das Verbrechen und seine Nachwirkungen auf ein menschlich erfühlbares Niveau zu bringen. Zum Beispiel, indem man die Geschichte der nachfolgenden Generationen erzählt, ohne Holzhammer und Zeigefinger, verpackt in eine absolut packende, moderne Story. Eine Familiengeschichte vielleicht, mit ein bisschen Kriminalität, Drama, Eifersucht. Wir denken "Billions", "Yellowstone" oder "Succession". Inklusive bekommt man bei einem solchen Herangehen aber den zwangsläufigen kollektiven Aufschrei der Aufpasser, vor der "Verharmlosung der unvergleichlichen Shoa" wird gewarnt werden. Das ist so reflexhaft wie unvermeidlich und somit kann nur eine Jüdin eine solche Story schreiben. Exakt das ist es, was Taffy Brodesser-Akner mit "Die Fletchers von Long Island" anging und was ihr, vorab, ziemlich hervorragend gelingt.Hervorragend deshalb (auf das "ziemlich" kommen wir zum Schluss), weil "Long Island Compromise" (so der Originaltitel) zunächst einmal eine ganz normale amerikanische Geschichte ist, in den Fußstapfen eines Franzen, eines Irving oder Updike. Wir schreiben die frühen 1980er und lernen die Fletchers kennen, eine prototypische weiße, reiche Industriellenfamilie aus Long Island, also im Norden aus New York City raus und dann rechts abbiegen. Welchem ethnischen Hintergrund sie entstammt, erfahren wir sofort, wird doch gerade eine Bar Mizwa vorbereitet. Der Familienvater, so um die 40 Jahre alt, Sohn eines aus Deutschland 1943 geflohenen Juden, tritt aus der Tür des stattlichen Anwesens und auf dem Weg zu seinem Auto wird er, Sack überm Kopf, entführt. Bummer.Aber Brodesser-Akner hält uns nur ein Kapitel lang in Atem, dann kehrt der Entführte, äußerlich fast unversehrt, zurück. Das Lösegeld, $250.000, ist weg - aber scheißegal, es sind Peanuts für die Zeit und die finanziellen Umstände, in denen sich die Familie befindet. Ist ja nix passiert. Ok, wirklich? Das fragen wir uns gerade noch, so schnell geht das alles, da macht das Buch einen Cut und wir sind in den Zwanzigern des aktuellen Jahrhunderts und finden uns wieder im ziemlich kranken Schädel des jüngsten Sohns des damals Entführten, Spitzname "Beamer", einem eher erfolglosen Screenwriter mit "Problemen". Vielen. Er hat Frau und Kinder und einen frühen und leider einmaligen Kinohit auf der Haben-Seite und gegenüber so ziemlich jede Droge, die man in L.A. finden kann. Das ist amüsant bis schmerzhaft zu lesen und, wir kommen zum oben genannten "ziemlich": Das ist alles ziemlich lang. Wir fangen an die Seiten mit den endlosen Exzessen und Ausflüchten und lahmen Entschuldigungen des Mittvierzigers zu überfliegen und wollen schon aufgeben, da kommt der Schnitt zu seinem Bruder Nathan, dem ältesten Sohn des Entführten, der das Familienunternehmen weitergeführt hat und nur äußerlich ein stabileres Leben als sein Bruder in Hollywood führt. Während Beamers Drogen "richtige" sind, beruhigt Nathan sein angsterfülltes Hirn mit dem Kauf von Versicherungen oder dem Verschenken von Handbüchern, mit denen er nicht nur seinen Kindern beibringen möchte, wie man sich durch die achso gefährliche Welt sicher bewegt. Er ist ein Kontrollfreak, ein Langweiler. Soweit so überspitzt, aber auch gut lesbar und wieder fast zu lang. Erst als wir auch hier sagen "Wir haben es verstanden, Taffy, er ist auch ein Wrack!" kommen wir zur scheinbar normalsten der drei Geschwister: Jenny von der Gnade der späten Geburt, war sie doch zum Zeitpunkt der Entführung des Vaters noch nicht geboren. Sie stellt sich also exakt die gleiche Frage wie viele Enkel von Überlebenden der Shoa: was sie denn mit der ganzen Scheiße zu tun habe? Nichts! Und warum es ihr trotzdem schlecht geht. Jenny war damals, 1983, noch gar nicht auf der Welt, so wie ihre Eltern 1943 noch nicht geboren waren und dennoch kommt sie, wie diese, in dieser nicht so zurecht, wie sie es sollte. "Survivors Guilt kann doch beim besten Willen nicht vererbt werden?", fragt sie sich.Eben doch! Zumindest laut wissenschaftlichen Forschungen, die schon vor dem Aussterben der direkten Holocaustüberlebenden begannen. Nicht dass mir das einleuchtet, mit dem Wissen um Mendels Chromosomen aus Biounterricht und überhaupt als jemand, der zu lange aus der Schule raus ist. Wie soll das gehen, frage ich mich, das (genetische) Vererben von Traumata? Aber, so gebe ich zu, an der Kreuzung von Nature und Nurture liegt ein großer ausladender Sumpf, namens "Gesellschaft" und in ebendiesem Sumpf gären Meinungen über und untereinander, blubbern, fallen aus und kristallisieren sich über Generationen. Man nennt das dann "Stereotype" und die vererben sich natürlich und zwar sowieso, siehe: Juden, siehe: Deutsche, siehe: "Amis", siehe: die “Anderen".Und so haben wir es nun wirklich begriffen, das Buch ist auch schon sehr lang, dass alle handelnden Personen von einem Ur-Trauma abgefuckt wurden: der Entführung des Vaters im ersten Kapitel, von der jeder weiß und trotzdem niemand spricht, damit das nur noch in sich selbst existierende "Familienoberhaupt" (in dicken Anführungen) nicht getriggert werde. Und, ich muss es nicht aussprechen, sprach Herr Falschgold es aus: Dem Holocaust, das Trauma der Spätgeborenen, das der heutigen dritten und vierten Überlebendengeneration, über das erst recht niemand spricht. Wie geht man damit um? Muss es so abgefuckt enden, wie für die Söhne und Töchter Fletcher? Taffy Brodesser-Akner macht nicht viel Hoffnung: ja es muss. Wie anders? Aber wir, die un- oder kaum Traumatisierten sollten davon erfahren, sollen wissen, dass es sie gibt, die Abgefuckten, die Stummen, auch drei, vier Generationen danach und sicher noch ein paar in der Zukunft und wir müssen mit diesen umgehen und wenn wir es nicht können, müssen wir das eben lernen.Das kann man in wissenschaftlichen Abhandlungen vermitteln, in Vorträgen oder Dokumentarfilmen, alles wichtig. Aber die Abstraktion, welche die Belletristik bietet, das ein, zwei emotionale Schritte entfernt sein von schwarzweißen Filmrollen mit Leichenbergen, hilft, die heutigen Generationen von Mitmenschen der Überlebenden der Shoa zu erreichen. Zu erreichen, dass wir nicht gleich abschalten, wenn wir an den Holocaust erinnert werden, denn es ist nicht nur deren Holocaust, es ist auch unserer.Und natürlich hilft dabei auch Humor, eine stimmige Story, ein Bild vom abgefuckten Amerika mit seinen absurden Unterschieden zwischen Arm und Reich, denen sich Taffy Brodesser-Akner auch stellt. Sie lässt uns da manchmal etwas zu lange warten. Wir stöhnen durchaus manchmal: "S**t, tough luck, rich kid!" wenn einer der handelnden Personen mal wieder fast scheitert und dann doch gerettet wird von den nahezu unendlichen finanziellen Polstern, die so eine Industriellenfamilie nunmal hat.Aber alles Geld der Welt kann das Trauma der Entführung wie das der Shoa, und sei es noch so lange her, nicht wirklich lindern und da kann man dann halt nicht sagen "Tough luck, idiot!", schon gar nicht als Deutscher, aber auch einfach als empathischer Mensch. Ja, reiche Leute haben auch Probleme, so klitzekleine, wie die vergasten Vorfahren, vor 80 Jahren, im Holocaust.Und über den müssen wir sprechen. This is a public episode.

Joel Fleischman, though not widely known, profoundly shaped modern philanthropy by professionalizing the field and championing transparency and accountability. His work at Duke University and his book, A Great American Secret foresaw the growing influence of fewer major donors and the need for foundations to be held accountable for their impact.

If there's anything more daunting than interviewing a professional interviewer it's interviewing an award-winning professional interviewer. Today's guest Taffy Brodesser-Akner is a staff-writer on the New York Times and a legend amongst journalists who often find themselves on the monosyllabic side of a celebrity. (Her interview with Bradley Cooper refusing to be interviewed for is a masterclass.) Her debut novel Fleishman is in Trouble was a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller and then, never having written a screenplay before, she adapted it into a hit miniseries, starring Claire Danes, for which she won an Emmy. I mean. Her new novel, Long Island Compromise, has just been bought by Apple TV and looks set to go the same way. It follows four decades in the life of a wealthy Jewish Long Island family whose patriarch is kidnapped in 1980. The fall out is the story. Wealth class privilege trauma BDSM and controlling mothers abound. I met Taffy in her publisher's office when she was visiting London to talk about her joy of turning 40 and realising the thing she'd been taught her whole life to be afraid of (middle age) was actually her ticket to freedom, the mystifying effect of money, the unlikely promise she made her mum and why her superpower is spotting a nose job. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org, including Long Island Compromise by Taffy Brodesser-Akner and the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls @ Pineapple Audio Production.

In this episode I visit Gregg Fleishman's studio in Los Angeles a few weeks after our trip to Thailand together to build some of his structures for Wonderfruit Festival. Gregg began his journey in architectural design in the concrete industry in the 1970's and has since developed his work into massive 3D geometric puzzle pieces of wood. Now his work has been highlighted at Burning Man - even building the temple of 2007, Lucidity Festival, Wonderfruit Festival, and more. His genius is evident in his endless designs for joinery and nodal mechanisms as his work is free of any metal, screws, or nails. All pieces fit together very specifically. Yet this is also why the structures are so user friendly - if you know the order of operations.

To kick off a brand new season, host Taffy Brodesser-Akner sits down with Succession creator and showrunner Jesse Armstrong to discuss how he staffed and ran his writers' room, the importance of maintaining distance and perspective in your artistic endeavors, what's next for Jesse now that Succession is over, and much more. Jesse Armstrong is a screenwriter, showrunner, and producer known for his work on several critically acclaimed television series. He rose to prominence as co-creator and writer of British sitcoms Peep Show and Fresh Meat, as a writer on the first three seasons of The Thick of It and cowriter of its 2009 feature adaption, In the Loop, which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay. Most recently, Jesse served as creator and showrunner of the HBO black comedy Succession, for which he received – among others – four consecutive Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series, three Golden Globes, and two Writers Guild Awards for Drama Series. Succession centers on the ultra-wealthy and ultra-dysfunctional Roy family, owners of global media and entertainment conglomerate Waystar RoyCo, and their fight for control of the company amidst uncertainty about the health of the family's patriarch. The series—which is nominated for the 2024 Writers Guild Award for Drama Series—concluded its fourth and final season concluded last year, and the entire series is available to stream on Max. This episode of OnWriting is hosted by screenwriter, journalist, and author Taffy Brodesser-Akner.

Happy Gap Year Exploration Month! In this special before-and-after episode of Gap Year Radio, we embark on an awe-inspiring conversation with Journey Fleishman, a remarkable gap year student who undertook the incredible feat of hiking the entire Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) in the Western US. Julia and Journey take a deep dive into the challenges, triumphs, and transformative experiences that Journey encountered during her epic adventure. Part I was recorded before she hit the trail and Part II was recorded after she finished the hike. The resulting conversation takes us through her decision to embark on this ambitious journey, discussing her motivations, preparations, and the support network that helped her along the way. We delve into the physical and mental challenges of hiking over 2,650 miles, from the southern border of California to the northern border of Washington, experiencing the diverse landscapes and climates that the PCT offers. The episode explores the personal growth and self-discovery that Journey experienced during her time on the trail, shedding light on how this epic adventure transformed her perspective on life, nature, and her own capabilities. Journey shares anecdotes of encounters with fellow hikers, illustrating the strong sense of community that exists within the PCT hiking culture. Listeners will gain insights into the practical aspects of long-distance hiking, including gear choices and the daily rhythm of a thru-hiker's life. By the way, her top gear choices are the REI Magma 15 sleeping bag, her ULA Circuit pack, and her trusty ground pad! Whether you're an experienced hiker, aspiring adventurer, or simply someone looking for inspiration, this episode of Gap Year Radio is a captivating and motivational exploration of an extraordinary gap year experience. Journey Fleishman's Pacific Crest Trail adventure reminds us all that the path less traveled can lead to remarkable personal growth and unforgettable adventures.

As "prestige" TV continues to trend towards more and more morally ambiguous characters, the space between hero and anti-hero has become less clearly-defined, raising questions of whether the characters we love to watch are "good" or "likable," and if that should affect whether or not we root for them.Join eOne executive Jacqueline Sacerio and producer Sarah Timberman as they unpack this topical trend, discuss why we're drawn to morally unsavory characters as much as (if not more than) saintly ones, and attempt to answer the question: How much does likability really matter?This conversation was recorded live at ATX TV Festival Season 12 (June 1-4, 2023) in Austin, TX.PANELISTS:Jacqueline Sacerio (Co-Head, Development, Scripted Television, eOne)Sarah Timberman (Executive Producer, Justified: City Primeval, Fleishman is in Trouble)MODERATOR:Laura Rice (Texas Standard)SUBSCRIBE to youtube.com/ATXTV for more panels, conversations & events with your favorite TV creatives and casts.FOLLOW ATX TV:Twitter: twitter.com/ATXFestivalFacebook: facebook.com/ATXFestivalInstagram: instagram.com/atxfestival/TikTok: tiktok.com/@atxtv

This week, Alan, Quinta, and Scott were joined by Naval Academy professor and cyberlaw expert Jeff "Two Effs" Kosseff to work through the week's big national security news stories, including:“Dox Populi.” Florida's state legislature is the latest of several to propose laws requiring individuals involved in certain online activities to reveal their identities to the state. Are these requirements consistent with the First Amendment? What would they mean for civil society where they apply?“Recommend Forward.” The Biden administration has rolled out what some had previewed as a historic new cyber strategy. But it's left some experts cold, in part because it seems to hinge on future enactments by a cooperative Congress—something that may not be in the cards. How revolutionary is it really?“Forget It, Jake. It's the Select Committee on Strategic Competition between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party.” The House select committee on China held its first hearing last week to much fanfare. How much is it a partisan political exercise? And to what degree might it actually steer U.S. policy on China in a better (or worse) direction?For object lessons, Alan recommended a surprisingly endearing novel about a failing marriage, "Fleishman is in Trouble." On a similar note, Quinta urged listeners to check out Rachel Aviv's portrait of the highly unorthodox marriages of philosopher Agnes Callard. Scott broke from the trend to celebrate Suzy Eddie Izzard's new moniker and remind folks of the brilliance that is her 1999 stand-up special, Dress to Kill. And Jeff endorsed Daisy Alpert Florin's new novel "My Last Innocent Year" as a much needed reflection on, among other things, how the United States handled the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal of the 1990s.
