Podcasts about The Gambia

We had the pleasure to interview Sandro Gohoho, President of Film Licensing and Operations at Echelon Studios, whose life and career span continents, cultures, and transformative moments. Born in North Macedonia to West African parents, Sandro moved across Guinea-Bissau, Ghana, The Gambia, Senegal, France, Canada, and beyond, each chapter forging a deeper sense of identity, resilience, and leadership.Sandro shares how witnessing his father start from scratch in a foreign land taught him the meaning of perseverance, trust, and hard work. Fluent in multiple languages and shaped by a global lens, he now sits at the helm of international film licensing, helping bring stories from around the world to audiences everywhere. In this conversation, he opens up about the evolving landscape of global content, the importance of mentorship, and why diverse voices matter more than ever in the age of AI and digital storytelling.

La región del Sahel es quizás una de las más ricas del mundo, dotada de vastos recursos energéticos y minerales como petróleo, oro y uranio, pero su población sigue sumida en la pobreza extrema, el hambre y los conflictos.La Estrategia Integrada de las Naciones Unidas para el Sahel (UNISS) define la región política del Sahel como 10 países: Senegal, Gambia, Mauritania, Guinea, Malí, Burkina Faso, Níger, Chad, Camerún y Nigeria.Es un consenso que los habitantes del Sahel siguen sufriendo y viviendo en una pobreza extrema debido a sus líderes, que participan en actividades corruptas en connivencia con Occidente y sus antiguas potencias coloniales.“Extraen recursos a precios muy baratos que sólo los benefician a ellos, que son la élite neocolonial en estas antiguas colonias” se dice casi unánimemente.Las recientes celebraciones de las tomas militares en el Sahel por parte de los civiles pueden explicarse por las frustraciones de la población por la pobreza rampante, el desempleo, la mala infraestructura y la inestabilidad, entre otras razones.En la mayoría de los países de África occidental y central, las poblaciones han mostrado resentimiento hacia Francia, su antiguo amo colonial y la ola de golpes de Estado en el Sahel y la violencia están lejos de terminar.No hay una respuesta fácil a esto, porque algunos extremistas por otro lado están empeñados en imponer ideologías extremistas que a veces son antidemocráticas.Con altos niveles de pobreza, desigualdad, desempleo, mal liderazgo y analfabetismo, y si se combinan todos los factores, es muy probable que se produzca un golpe de Estado o reclutamiento por parte de movimientos extremistas.

Für Paul Soldan ist Afrika immer schon eine Sehnsucht gewesen, als hätte er „aus einem früheren Leben noch eine Rechnung offen“. Er deckte sich ausgiebig mit Literatur ein und schrieb angesichts des Bürgerkrieges in der Zentralafrikanischen Republik das Buch „Sheikhi – ein afrikanisches Märchen“, das eine Friedensbotschaft in die Welt bringen will. Die Zumutungen der Corona-Zeit haben ihm dann den letzten Tritt gegeben, selbst aufzubrechen nach Südafrika, nach Gambia, in den Senegal, nach Tansania und nach Sansibar, wo er Deutsche getroffen hat, die regelrecht geflüchtet waren und dringend eine Atempause brauchten. Paul Soldan erzählt von den tatsächlichen Gefahren, von Selbstjustiz, von der Offenherzigkeit und Unmittelbarkeit – und von dem berühmten afrikanischen Lachen, das einen nicht wieder loslässt.

(Piano music stops)   Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… This is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. This is the second episode of Aba aba, or Gymnarchus niloticus, and the second thing I like about this little known fish is where they are found. Let's talk about where in the wild this fish is naturally found and what kind of habitat they tend to like best. This episode may be a bit shorter than most, but I promise to make up for it in future episode of this series. In episode one we found out that the Aba Aba is found in Africa. They can inhabit bodies of fresh water in the Nile, Turkana, Chad, Niger, Volta, Senegal, and Gambia basins. It is wide spread throughout West African countries of Egypt, Benin, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Chad, Cote d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, South Sudan, Sudan, Uganda, and Gambia. It has been reported in Cameroon, where it is an introduced species, but identification here still needs further confirmation. By widespread I mean that they can be found in various bodies of freshwater such as lakes and rivers in these areas but they are sparsely spread.  These fish need fairly large territories, remember that can get up to five feet in length and weigh 42 pounds, and spend most of their lives as solitary individuals, so therefore, they are sparsely spread throughout their natural habitat. Now that we know where in the world to find these amazing fish, what kind of habitat are we looking for? We know they like freshwater and can be found in lakes and rivers. They will most often be found in areas with dense aquatic vegetation. They use this to hide from larger predators and to help camouflage themselves from prey items.  In rivers, they favor the edges of the water near the banks to keep out of the rushing currents toward the middle. Don't get me wrong, they can swim well, but the edges host the plants they need to rest in during the day. Aba aba are nocturnal, so they are most active at night and they spend their days resting in the vegetation. They can use the plants a bit like a hammock, supporting them while they sleep. Aba aba fish have very small eyes and are a bit sensitive to light so this is another reason to live in and around thick vegetation.  Their behavior is seasonally influenced by the rains of this continent, as are many species of animals that live on the African continent. When the rains come breeding season begins, but you'll have to wait for the next episode to find out the unique breeding behaviors of the Aba aba. That's it for the second episode of the Aba aba. Thank you for joining me to find out where this amazing fish lives because it is my second favorite thing about them.  If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me next week for another exciting episode about the Aba aba.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company.

Gabón, Sudán, Sur Sudan, Azania, Togo, Alianza de los Estados del Sahel, Kenia, RDC, Costa de Marfil, Gambia, Camerún... ¿Cómo analizar los eventos socio-políticos? ¡Herramientas de análisis para la revolucion!Hoy es miércoles y toca #LALLAVE con un servidor Nsang Cristià Esimi Cruz a.k.a Okenve Nsue. .Escuchanos en nuestros canales de YouTube o Spotify : https://youtu.be/h9OOXWXH_UIEn el programa de hoy presentamos algunas herramientas de análisis como:- Las masas (el pueblo) son los creadores de la historia- El papel que juegan los individuos y líderes en cambiar sociedades - Materialismo dialéctico- El materialismo / materia es primaria- Análisis de clase social en la nación AfricanaOsagyefo Kwame Nkrumah afirma correctamente que "Todos los pueblos de ascendencia africana, ya sea que viven (o nacen) en (África), América del Norte o América del Sur, el Caribe, o en cualquier otra parte del mundo son africanos y pertenecen a la Nación Africana ". Como nación tenemos una historia de lucha por nuestra propia supervivencia y desarrollo, igual que otras naciones y pueblos. Esta historia incluye la lucha de clases, en su formas particulares, en África previa a la invasión y colonización. Sin embargo, desde la primera (árabe-islámica) y la segunda (europea-cristiana) de las principales invasiones de nuestra nacion luchamos no solo una lucha de clases, sino también una lucha como nación para sobrevivir y desarrollarnos contra la dominación que nos imponen las naciones imperialistas.Esta lucha de clase nacional, aunque difícil, es tanto necesaria como correcta considerando el nivel y la cantidad de subdesarrollo que nuestra nación ha sufrido resultante de la colonización de nuestra patria y la dispersión masiva de millones de personas a través de la experiencia devastadora y brutal de la esclavitud.Esta experiencia le ha dado a nuestra lucha un aspecto doble: nuestra lucha como nación para recuperar el control de nuestras vidas e historia para que podamos desarrollarnos en nuestros intereses, y nuestra lucha continua de clases para transformar nuestra nación en una nación libre y unificada bajo un sistema socio-político que beneficie al pueblo y no a las elites coloniales. Siempre debemos ver el mundo desde nuestros intereses como Nación africana con África siempre como punto de referente, y desde los intereses de los trabajadores, que luchan, son explotados y las masas oprimidas (o clases), cuya mano de obra construyó África, y ha producido la mayor parte de la riqueza del mundo europeo occidental.Nunca debemos de pretender dominar a ninguna otra nación, pero sí debemos de pretender llegar a ser tan potentes, como nación africana, que nadie nos vuelva a dominar. Nosotros también debemos organizarnos para asegurar que las masas de nuestra gente tengan el control de sus propias vidas, y que no haya capitalistas codiciosos, reaccionarios, burgueses, pequeños burgueses, ni neocolonialistas que exploten a las masas africanas. Los que trabajan y producen deben, y lo harán, recoger¡ los frutos de su trabajo!Como siempre con música :Grupo Molato de MbiniFistong BoyMista ORommy ft Teddy

(Piano music stops)   Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… This is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  My name is Kiersten and I have a Master's Degree in Animal Behavior and did my thesis on the breeding behavior of the Tri-colored bat. I was a zookeeper for many years and have worked with all sorts of animals from Aba Aba fish to tigers to ravens to domesticated dogs and so many more in between. Many of those years were spent in education programs and the most important lesson I learned was that the more information someone has about a particular animal the less they fear them. The less they fear them the more they crave information about them and before you know it you've become an advocate for that misunderstood animal. This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. Welcome back, listeners! In this new series after summer break, we will be heading back into the water. Don't worry we will not need a bigger boat! Okay, I had to throw in a reference to Jaws, being that it's fifty years old this year, and also one of the reasons that an entire generation of people fear sharks. But that is another series all together.  This episode is the first in a new series about a fish. The Aba aba fish to be specific. Never heard of it? That's exactly why I picked it as my next unknown creature. This first thing I like about the Aba aba fish, is the Aba aka fish. We will start off this series with an overview of this wicked cool fish to whet your appetite to learn more. The Aba aba fish, Gymnarchus niloticus, is also known as the African knife fish, Frankish, freshwater rat-tail, or aba fish. It is a long, slender bodied fish with only one fin. The dorsal fin runs from the back of the head to the tip of the tail on the top-side of the body. This is their only fin and the reason they are called knife fish because they kinda look like a knife if you used the head as the handle.  Aba aba are typically black to gray to brown on the top half of the body while the underside is a paler color, such as white or beige. They are covered in very small scales that do not stand out making it look like they have smooth skin. Adults can reach a length of five feet or 1.6 meters and weight 42 pounds or 19 kilograms. That's a pretty big freshwater fish. Classification of the Aba aba is as follows- Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Actinopterygii (the ray-finned fish. These are fish that have lightly built fins made of webbings of skin supported by thin bony spines) Order: Osteoglossiformes (this is an order of ray-finned fish known as the bony tongue fish and we will delve into to this in more detail in a future episode) Family: Gymnarchidae  Genus: Gymnarchus (meaning naked bum) Species: niloticus (meaning from the River Nile)     They are the only fish in the family Gymnarchidae and in the Genus Gymnarchus which makes them special.  In the wild the Aba aba is found in the freshwaters of Africa. They live n the lakes and rivers of the Nile, Turkana, Chad, Niger, Volta, Senegal, and Gambia basins. This fish is an obligate air breather which means they need to gulp air form the surface of the water to supplement the oxygen that they get from the water. If they cannot do this, they will suffocate. There are other species of fish that are also obligate air breathers. Typically this adaptation is found in fish that live in waters that are thick with sediment or have seasonal changes that can increase the sediments levels in the water. Gulping air gives the fish a clean source of oxygen. Aba aba are predators hunting for other small fish, crustaceans, aquatic insects, copepods, frogs, and snails. The diet is dictated by the size of the Aba aba but they are carnivores throughout their entire lives. This amazingly cool fish is nocturnal and because they are most active at night they have an adaptation that makes them even cooler. No way, you say! How could they get any cooler than they already are? Well, they are electric! Didn't see that coming did you? Aba aba are capable of generating a weak electric current that helps them find prey in low light. Yes! Aba aba are electric fish. I became fascinated by this fish when I worked with one at one of the zoos where I worked. As soon as he was transferred to our department, he quickly became one of my favorite animals to feed, clean, and develop enrichment for. That's right these fish are great problem-solvers and we had to give him things to rearrange inside his tank to keep him busy. It was my pleasure to work with him and I like to think he appreciated the attention we gave him, as well. That is it for the first episode of Aba aba. I hope the overview of this animal has you excited to learn more because my first favorite thing about the Aba aba IS the Aba aba. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me next week for another exciting episode about the Aba aba.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company.

Edgar González Corral emprendió su primer gran viaje en moto el 4 de agosto de 2024. Durante más de cinco meses, atravesó Marruecos, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea-Bisáu, Guinea y Sierra Leona, antes de regresar por la misma ruta a España el 20 de enero de 2025, habiendo recorrido 20.000 kilómetros. Viajó en solitario la mayor parte del tiempo, salvo los primeros y últimos 20 días, en los que estuvo acompañado por su novia en la misma moto. Con la intención de viajar despacio, conocer a la gente y disfrutar de la naturaleza, este viaje representó un cambio radical en su vida: dejó su trabajo como biólogo en Oviedo y se lanzó a la carretera con una Yamaha XT600 E del 2001, sin experiencia previa en viajes largos en moto. Su objetivo inicial era dar la vuelta a África, pero pronto comprendió que el tiempo disponible no era suficiente. ⚠️ Más información y fotos en: https://bit.ly/edgar-gonzalez ❤️ ¿Te gusta este podcast?

Als wij bij de wedkantoren mogen inzetten op nieuwe regionale conflicten in West-Afrika, dan kiezen we Togo en Gambia. “Die dekselse horizontalen aan de westkust!”, moeten de verticale Togolezen denken. Met Chili kunnen we tenminste praten. En met oosterbuur Benin eigenlijk ook wel. Maar vergis je niet, het kleine stukje kust in dit smalle landje trok veel bekijks, met alle gevolgen van dien. Hier hebben zó veel Europese onruststokers rondgelopen dat het Esperanto in Togo uitgevonden had kunnen zijn. Meerdere walletjes hebben dus gegeten van Togo. Dus dan rijst nu de vraag: hier opeten of meenemen? We zijn nooit volledig, wel origineel. Geen experts, maar wel liefhebbers. Hebben we tóch iets verkeerd gezegd of zijn we iets cruciaals vergeten? Volg ons en laat het weten.

In the second episode of this three-part series on female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) in Kenya, host Anna Stoecklein and Kenyan journalist Evelyn Wambui explore the complex reasons why this practice persists despite its known harmful effects. The episode delves into the cultural, religious, and social forces that perpetuate FGM/C and the challenges faced by those who choose to break away from tradition. From conversations with survivors, religious leaders, and a former cutter, this episode sheds insight into the powerful current of tradition and the remarkable courage required to break free from it. It also reveals how even as laws change, cultural norms can remain deeply entrenched, presenting unique challenges for those working to end the practice. Content Warning This series includes discussions of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C), including personal accounts of physical and emotional trauma. These stories may be distressing or triggering for some listeners. Please take care while listening. Topics Covered The safety paradox: Why families and communities view FGM/C as keeping their daughters "safe" Social consequences: The severe social repercussions faced by those who reject tradition When laws aren't enough: The evolution of FGM/C through medicalization, modified practices, and cross-border cutting when legislation outpaces cultural change Global backlash: Current attempts to repeal anti-FGM/C laws in countries like the Gambia and the broader implications for women's rights The patriarchal undercurrent: How FGM/C connects to other gender equality struggles through shared root causes in patriarchal systems Swimming against the current: The challenges of individual resistance to powerful cultural forces Some names have been changed to protect the identities of individuals featured in this episode. Featured Voices Survivors & Community Members Fariha: Somali survivor who advocates against FGM/C through conversations at her salon Leila: Somali survivor and mother who explains community beliefs about female sexuality Saitoti: Maasai community leader who faced backlash for marrying an uncut woman Pauline: Former cutter from the Maasai community who now advocates against the practice Osman: Religious leader who clarifies FGM/C has no basis in Islam Experts Sean Callaghan (Orchid Project): Head of Research and Capacity Strengthening Kirigo Njenga (Orchid Project): Advocacy Officer  Evelyn Wambui: Field producer and translator for this series Partner Organizations ⁠Orchid Project⁠: International NGO working at the forefront of the global movement to create a world free from FGM/C. ⁠COVAW⁠ (Coalition on Violence Against Women): National non-profit women's rights organization responding to the silence of the Kenyan society in addressing Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG). ⁠Brighter Society Initiative⁠: Local Kenya NGO that works to empower the society beyond violence.

It's Tuesday, May 20th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Fulani Muslim killed 15 unarmed Nigerian Christians On Saturday, May 17th, armed Fulani Muslim militia opened fire on Agatu Christians in Benue State, Nigeria, killing 15 unarmed men. Throughout that North Central region, the Fulani have also killed 159 Christian residents over the last 40 days, according to TruthNigeria.com.   Pray for Christians in Nigeria, suffering the most severe violence in the world today. Romania turns left after election interference On Sunday, Romania has taken the centrist-left position with the election of a new president named Nicușor Dan. Dan is supportive of Romania's participation in the European Union, and has made moves to approve the homosexual/transgender movement in his country. The more conservative candidate, George-Nicolae Simion, lost the election in a vote of 54% to 46%. Romania is the second largest Eastern European country by population.  The mainstream media is interpreting this election as an international rejection of the Trump agenda.  The back story is that Călin Georgescu, the conservative in the first round of the Romanian presidential election last December, garnered the most votes among the six presidential candidates at that time. After his opponents claimed that Russia had influenced the election through TikTok accounts, Romanian government officials detained Georgescu, canceled that election, and re-set it for May 18th.  Tens of thousands of Romanians protested in the streets back in March. At the time, Elon Musk said, “They just arrested the person who won the most votes in the Romanian presidential election. This is messed up.” Most and least benevolent countries According to this year's Gallup World Happiness Report, the most benevolent countries in the world, judged by donations and volunteer hours, are Indonesia, the United States, Kenya, Gambia, United Arab Emirates, Ireland, Canada, and New Zealand. The least benevolent countries are Afghanistan, Yemen, Egypt, Jordan, and Morocco.  Biden announces advanced prostate cancer Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an "aggressive form" of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, reports CBS News. On Sunday, President Trump posted on social media that he and First Lady Melania Trump are "saddened to hear about Joe Biden's recent medical diagnosis." Appearing on MSNBC's “Morning Joe” on Monday, former Obama health advisor Dr. Zeke Emanuel said the cancer is so advanced, he has had it for many years. SCARBOROUGH: “Doesn't it take some time for prostate cancer to develop to a point where it would spread to the bones?” EMANUEL: “He's had this for many years, maybe even a decade, growing there and spreading.” Dr. Emanuel explained how serious Biden's prostate cancer truly is. EMANUEL: “That Gleason score, that score is from 2 up to 10, and he's at a 9. That means that the cancer doesn't look normal. It looks very abnormal.” Appearing on Fox News with Jesse Waters, talk show host Hugh Hewitt was incredulous. HEWITT: “This is the fourth time, in a little over 100 years, that a Democratic president -- Woodrow Wilson, FDR, John F. Kennedy and now Joe Biden, have hidden crucial details about their health as Commander-in-Chief from the American people. Ronald Reagan did not do that. “And it just astonishes me that in a free republic, we have to worry about our leaders telling us whether they're healthy or not.” Supremes allows Trump to revoke protection for thousands of illegal Venezuelans On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling allowing the Trump administration to deport 350,000 Venezuelans who are presently living in the U.S. on what they call a “humanitarian parole,” reports NBC News. Christian camp sues over foolish transgender mandates The State of Colorado is threatening to shut down a Christian Camp called Idrahaje -- short for “I'd Rather Have Jesus.” The Colorado Department of Early Childhood has refused to grant the camp a religious exemption concerning its transgender policies. This would require the camp to allow boys, pretending to be girls, to sleep, shower, and dress with female campers. The camp has sued the state, with representation from Alliance Defending Freedom. The camp disciples 2,500 to 3,000 students each year with the mission to “win souls to Jesus Christ through the spreading of the Gospel.”  Camp Idrahaje has complied with all regulations until this year when the Colorado government officials released new gender identity rules that became effective on February 14, 2025. 96% of atheists embrace homosexual/transgender agenda The most likely group in America to support the homosexual/transgender agenda are atheists with 96% professing support.  By contrast, 70% of white Evangelical Protestants oppose the lifestyle. Psalm 14:1 describes the atheist this way: "The fool has said in his heart, there is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works.” Mother loses right to disciple daughter Liberty Counsel is defending a mother in the state of Maine who has lost the right to guide the religious upbringing of her 11-year-old girl in a custody case.  This includes taking her daughter to Calvary Chapel services on Sunday.   A state district judge has ruled against the mother, citing “The ‘fear mongering,' paranoia, and anxiety taught by Calvary Chapel has, more likely than not, already had an impact on [the daughter's] childhood development.”   Expert testimony concluded that Calvary Chapel is a cult, the church's pastor a “charismatic” speaker, who spoke “authoritatively” in his messages, and that he asserted his messages were objective truth.   Liberty Counsel is appealing the case to the Maine Supreme Court. They still persecute people who preach about Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 says, “For you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, just as they did from the Judeans, who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they do not please God and are contrary to all men, forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, so as always to fill up the measure of their sins; but wrath has come upon them to the uttermost.” Housing prices sag Since June 2022, housing prices are sagging in some metro areas around the U.S. — 22.8% in the Austin market, 9.9% in the Phoenix market, 9.2% in the San Francisco market, 9.1% in the San Antonio Market, 7.3% in the Denver market, and 6.7% in the Dallas Market. The Consumer Price Index has also risen about 10% over that period of time. Moody's downgraded America's financial rating And finally, in a year-over-year comparison, the U.S. government is still breaking records for fiscal expenditures running 10% over Fiscal Year 2024. Moody's has downgraded the U.S. as a long-term issuer of bonds by one notch, ending a perfect rating for America over the last 108 years.  No longer does the U.S, government get a Aaa rating, the highest level available. Now, it's an Aa1. Moody's noted that the downgrade "reflects the increase over more than a decade in government debt and interest payment ratios to levels that are significantly higher than similarly rated sovereigns.” The rating organization added that: “Successive U.S. administrations and Congress have failed to agree on measures to reverse the trend of large annual fiscal deficits and growing interest costs.”   Another independent rating service, named Fitch, downgraded the United States in 2023.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, May 20th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Corresponsal, cronista y futbolherido, Xavier Aldekoa acaba de publicar su quinto libro, ‘África redonda', editado por Península. Ahora nos acompaña en un viaje sin red: del secesionismo invisible de Cabinda y la emboscada al autobús de Togo, hasta los estadios egipcios en los que la pasión se mezcla con la tragedia y la represión. En Costa de Marfil, Didier Drogba se convierte en mediador improbable de una guerra civil, logrando que un partido de fútbol reúna a enemigos irreconciliables. Y en Gambia la joven portera Fatim Jawara cruza el desierto y el Mediterráneo persiguiendo el sueño europeo, solo para naufragar en el intento, como tantos otros jóvenes africanos que ven en el fútbol el último pasaporte a la esperanza. Este episodio sirve para coser, con la aguja del deporte, las pequeñas historias humanas que rara vez ocupan portadas, pero que definen la grandeza y diversidad de un continente que ve en el fútbol mucho más que un juego: es refugio, es frontera, es redención y, a veces, condena.

This episode of Only Business pulls 15 deeply reflective and unexpected business lessons from Game of Thrones. We break down real-world insights on leadership under pressure, legacy-building, emotional control, loyalty, succession, and decision-making when the stakes couldn't be higher. Each point is rooted in character choices and turning points from the series—brought to life through the lens of entrepreneurship, small business, and leadership.

Por increíble que nos parezca, las supersticiones aún tienen poder sobre determinados pueblos. Prueba de ello es lo que ocurrió con un cayuco que había salido de Gambia el pasado noviembre y que hizo escala en la senegalesa isla de Bassoul. Allí subieron más personas que pretendían llegar a España. En total había unas doscientas, pero cuatro de ellas no consiguieron alcanzar su destino porque los tripulantes creyeron que eran vampiros, que traían “mala suerte” a la embarcación, y los arrojaron por la borda. Para hablar de este extraño incidente, contaremos con la presencia del psiquiatra forense José Cabrera y del marino Fernando J. García Echegoyen.

Episode 530 - Wendy A Horwitz - Author of Milkweed and Honey Cake - A Memoir in Ritual MomentsRaised in small-town Connecticut, educated in public schools, then Harvard and Temple Universities, I've had a mixed metaphor of a career. I've been a (happy) fish out of water: a doctoral student in psychology with an undergraduate history degree; a psychologist in pediatric medicine; a clinician among academic scholars; a social scientist working with English professors, engineers, and philosophers; a writer teaching medical students. But I promised a mixed metaphor. My life is also an improvised, patchwork quilt of pieces gathered from sojourns in Costa Rica, Israel, Gambia, Provence, Ecuador, and the best, continuous journey of all--being a mom. Now, I teach writing workshops on Cape Cod and in Philadelphia. I'm a haphazard birder and a passionate observer of butterflies, unspoiled habitats, and turtles. Hiking, family, books, close friends, religious observance and secular ritual, music and dance: all lend my quilt color and sublime, if elusive patterns. And I'm still working on it, with clumsy stitches that depict me starting to learn the piano, and along the rough edge, a new design for my next book.In Milkweed and Honey Cake: A Memoir in Ritual Moments, Wendy A. Horwitz shares stories about celebration, loss, change, and the best way to open a pomegranate.Holidays delight – and disappoint. A couple marrying in the pandemic finds a surprise after a rainstorm, and a topsy-turvy search for a gravestone honors her ancestors. When a graduation is cancelled, Horwitz serves pomp and circumstance on the front porch, and through the shifting seasons of a life, amid the scramble of pet guinea pigs and birthday parties, her children add wonder and comedy to tradition.With observations from nature, religion, and literature, Horwitz explores how ritual can exalt ordinary moments and frame the extraordinary. A blue heron, an old cupboard's scent, and the lingering feel of an engagement ring long gone prompt reflections laced with yearning and humor. Guiding us along a wooded path, to the kitchen table, in a messy garden, and under a tent reverberating with song, she traces the boundaries of ritual, considering what we do when ritual falls short, and how we might adapt each other's practices. And when the wider world seems broken, new rituals provide hope.Lyrical and funny, thought-provoking and deeply moving, Milkweed and Honey Cake is at once a meditation on our desire for meaning and the story of a woman's lifelong efforts to create ithttps://www.wendyhorwitzauthor.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

A federal court in Denver has found a former member of Gambia's military guilty of torturing five people accused of involvement in a failed coup against the West African country in 2006. This constitutes a rare prosecution in the United States for torture committed abroad. Also, the UK's Supreme Court passed a ruling on the meaning of the word "woman" as used in the country's Equality Act from 2010. In a unanimous decision, the court said that "woman" refers to people assigned the female gender at birth, and does not extend to transgender women. Critics of the decision say it marks a "huge blow" to the rights of trans people across the country. Also, more than 1,000 Israeli spies and soldiers, past and present, have petitioned their government to cease military actions in Gaza.

According to the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, roughly 4 in 10 people working in small-scale fisheries are women. Half are fishers themselves, and half process the fish, like Cary Badgie, from Gambia, whom the reporting team met as she salted and preserved the local catch. Female activists and entrepreneurs also underpin these fishing communities, as you'll hear from Senegalese climate activist Ndeye Yacine Dieng and local official and businesswoman Yayi Bayam Diouf, based in Dakar. Finally, host Ruxandra Guidi gets a perspective on a possible way forward for fishmeal production in a conversation with Libby Woodhatch, the executive chair of MarinTrust.

The city of Bukhara in Uzbekistan is located on the route of the legendary Silk Road, and in the Middle Ages it became a major intellectual hub of the Islamic world.

Post-Soviet emigration means it's now much smaller than it used to be, but Monica Whitlock met one man who is still happy to call Bukhara home.
