I vårt mest bedårande avsnitt hittills går vi igenom några av den moderna världens minsta arméer. Eller ja, rent tekniskt är det väl snarare små försvarsmakter; men i det här fallet är det ofta synonymt med arméer.Per går igenom Guyanas, Vatikanstatens och Islands mäktiga krigsmakter, där han hänförs över den förstnämnda och allt mer irriteras över de två sistnämnda. Mattis hoppar å sin sida på Vanuatus, Gambias och Luxemburgs fruktade horder. Han finner alla tre rätt gulliga faktiskt.Dessutom: Pers positiva fördomar om indier, Luxemburg tar oproportionerligt stort ansvar, isländska polisen överkompenserar, Mattis bygger en fullstack, längst pinne inte bara vinner utan omkullkastar den sociala ordningen, Fredrik reder ut det där med matte, en framtida supermakt, och mycket mer!

Vi fortsætter det musikalske nørderi i denne anden sending fra Gambia. Ledsaget af Dawda Jobarteh prøver Jonas Visti at blive klogere på de her utroligt omsiggribende musikalske traditioner, som rækker ind i både Senegal, Mali, Guinea og Guinea-Bissau. I denne episode får Jonas og Dawda besøg af den senegalesiske koraspiller Solo Sissoko der fortælle øser ud af sin biblioteks-agtige viden om instrumentet. Og ikke nok med det tryllebinder han os alle sammen med sine smukke simple musik, som Jonas Visti heldigvis får på sin optager. Udover det tager vi hul på den store kassettebånd og vinyljagt, som lod vente på sig i første program. Men nu er der taget hul på det hele, så nu flyder det bare med vestafrikanske analog toner ud af din radio de næste par lørdage. PS. Hvis ikke du har lyttet til første program, så synes den store redaktion bag programmet, at du skal begynde der, så du får the basics først. Mange møs og go fornøjelse :-) Medvirkende: Dawda Jobarteh. Solo Sissoko. Jonas Visti.

Die Schweiz führt einen Prozess von Weltformat: Ousman Sonko, rechte Hand des Diktators in Gambia, ist vor dem Bundesstrafgericht angeklagt. Lange darauf gewartet hat Fatoumatta Sandeng. Ihr Vater wurde vom Regime in Gambia ermordet. Seither kämpft sie für Gerechtigkeit – und gegen das Vergessen. Der April 2016 veränderte Fatoumatta Sandengs Leben für immer: Ihr Vater, ein Oppositionspolitiker in Gambia, wurde brutal ermordet. Sein Tod führte zu Protesten und markierte das Ende der Diktatur. Fatoumatta widmet seither ihre Energie und Zeit dem Gedenken an den Vater. Als Privatklägerin ist sie auch am Prozess in Bellinzona TI gegen Ousman Sonko, einem langjährigen Minister Gambias.

Wenn Sheriff Bojang Jnr. aus Gambia durch Berlin geht, dann erkennen ihn hier lebende Landsleute sofort: In seinem Heimatland ist der Investigativ-Journalist fast so bekannt wie ein Popstar. Doch er musste aufgrund seiner kritischen Berichterstattung als Journalist aus Gambia flüchten: Zehn Jahre lebte er fern seiner Familie und mit einer ungewissen Perspektive im Nachbarland Senegal, um halbwegs sicher zu sein und von dort aus berichten zu können. 2017 kehrte Sheriff Bojang Jnr. nach Gambia zurück. „Ein magischer Moment. Alles hat sich seitdem geändert. Das Gefühl von Sicherheit etwa“, sagt er. So gilt Gambia in Subsahara-Afrika mittlerweile als ein echtes Erfolgsmodell auf dem Weg zu Demokratie und Pressefreiheit. Mit RSF-Kommunikationsleiterin Sylvie Ahrens-Urbanek spricht er darüber, dass sich Journalist*innen jedoch nach wie vor viele Hürden in den Weg stellen.

Google "Czechia" and you'll find my article in Forbes. Although it has about 200,000 views, a few outliers are still resisting the name Czechia. They cling to The Czech Republic name as stubbornly as they cling to their Czech beer in a pub. In this WanderLearn episode (#112), I talk with two Czechs: Petr Pavlinek: Professor of Geography at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.  Václav J. Šulista: Honorary Consul of the Czech Republic to the Swiss Confederation (or Honorary Consul of Czechia to Switzerland, for you short-form name fans). We discuss: Why Czechia is a good name. Who dislikes the name. Why they dislike the name. How long will it take for the world to adopt the name. Why it matters.     You can watch most of the interview on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ivX9h4c5a4       Here is my article on Forbes: Czechia Has Won The Czech Republic Name Debate Quick: Paris is the capital of which country? You probably said, “France.” However, technically, it’s “the French Republic.” But who says that? Only a petulant Frenchman. Now try this: what’s the name of the country that drinks more beer per capita than any other country? If you’re feeling petulant, it’s the Czech Republic. If you want to be cool, it’s Czechia (pronounced Che-ki-ya). I'll drink to Czechia. (Photo credit: FRANCK FIFE/AFP/Getty Images)     Peruse the CIA’s Factbook and you’ll find that most countries have a long-form name and a short-form name. The People’s Republic of China is the long-form name, while China is its short-form name. The United States of America is also a mouthful, which is why there are popular alternatives: America (which many Latin Americans object to), the USA, the US, the States or Gringoland. For the last 100 years, the Czechs have been unable to come up with an easy name for English speakers to call their country. In 1918, when they first formed their country, the Czechs called their country Czechoslovakia. That tongue-twister was ridiculed by National Geographic, which called the new country’s name “awful” and an “unfair handicap for the young state.” In 1993, following Slovakia’s Velvet Divorce with Czechoslovakia, the Czech bureaucrats once again failed to promote a catchy English name for their new country. The Czech Republic is all they could come up with. It became both the long-form and short-form name of their new country. Why couldn't they come up with a short-form name? They were obviously too busy doing more important activities, like drinking their legendary beer. After American entrepreneurs tried Czechia's Budweiser Budvar Brewery beer, they named their version... [+] You can’t fault the Czechs for being unable to realize that what their nation’s name is a mouthful for English speakers. These are the same guys who have phrases like “Prd krt skrz drn, zprv zhlt hrst zrn.” I asked a Czech how you’re supposed to say that, he said, in complete seriousness, “Just like it’s written.” After I tried and comically failed, I asked him what it meant. He said, “A mole farted through grass, having swallowed a handful of grains.” Suddenly, calling their country "the Czech Republic" didn't feel so cumbersome anymore. The Czech Republic was one of the few countries that insisted on having a definite article in front of their country’s name: the Netherlands and the Gambia also annoyingly demand that. Sensing the frustration of English speakers who have to say “the Netherlands,” the Dutch offer the informal “Holland” alternative. It’s a bit easier to say, “I’m going to Holland,” instead of, “I’m going to the Netherlands.” It sounds weird to say, “I’m going to Netherlands.” Strangely, it doesn’t sound weird to say, “I’m going to Gambia.” Perhaps the Netherlands has been simply better than Gambia at demanding that we put a definite article before their name. Insisting on saying the Gambia implies that there are many Gambias. “Hey buddy, I’m not going to just any Gambia, I’m going to the Gambia.” In an effort to improve the linguistic lives of all English speakers, the Czech Republic registered its short-form name, Czechia, on July 5, 2016. How’s it catching on nearly a year later? On the one hand, there’s been little change. Some official Czech government websites still refer to "the Czech Republic." Because they're official government sites, it's not that surprising that they use the formal name, just like the United States government websites often spell out the long-form name of the USA. Czechia has yet to update its national athletic uniforms. Pavel Maslak celebrates on March 4, 2017.... [+] A few months after Czechia was officially registered in the United Nations databases and Czech leaders started to encourage English-speaking governments to use it, some quickly declared that Czechia was dead on arrival. Part of the “proof” that Czechia wasn't catching on was an unscientific survey of people in Prague’s Wenceslas Square. However, most Prague pedestrians aren’t native English speakers. Although some must have passionate opinions on the matter (and they’ll surely comment on this article), most Czechs probably don't care that much what English speakers call their country, as long as we don’t come up with an insulting name. The Czechs call their country Česko. Imagine asking New Yorkers what they think of Les États-Unis? Most New Yorkers aren’t fluent French speakers and are way too busy to worry about what the baguette eaters call their country. Consider the Finns. Nearly every language calls their country something that sounds like “Finland.” But what do the Finns call their own country? Suomi. This hockey star is happy to score goals for either Suomi or Finland. (Photo by Brian Bahr/Getty... [+] Albanians do the same thing. Almost everyone calls their country something that sounds like “Albania.” Meanwhile, Albanians call their own land Shqipëria. Neither the Finns nor the Albanians are trying to change what the world calls their country nor do they seem that concerned about what people call their motherland. The Czechs, on the other hand, want to make life easier for English speakers, which is why they’re encouraging us to say Czechia. It takes years for new names to catch on. As anyone who has changed their name knows, getting your friends to adopt it is difficult. Ten years ago, my wife changed her name from Binta to Rejoice. Her old friends and family still call her Binta. Similarly, when Burma became Myanmar, Leningrad became St. Petersburg and Peking became Beijing, the world took years to adapt. It would have saved cartographers and the rest of us English speakers plenty of trouble if China had just called their capital Beijing from the beginning. For whatever reason, they asked English speakers to start calling their big city Beijing. We complied. Prague, Czechia is arguably Europe's most beautiful city. Just don't tell that to the French. (Photo... [+] Czechia is an old name. The name Czechia first appeared in Latin about 400 years ago. The first English text to mention it was in 1841. Czechia’s party poopers say that it’s a lousy name because it sounds like Chechnya. However, it’s hard to avoid naming confusion. When I was writing my book about Eastern Europe, I discovered that most people confuse Slovakia and Slovenia (it doesn’t help that their flags are similar too). The poor folks who live in Seattle must spend their lives clarifying that they live in Washington state, not Washington, DC. And what were the people in Paris, Arkansas thinking when they came up with their city’s name? Compared to these cases, Czechia is clear as a watered-downed ale. Also, Czechia doesn’t ignite a vicious name debate like the one regarding Macedonia. The Greeks stir like a Poseidon-powered tidal wave whenever they hear the northern neighbor call themselves Macedonia. Chechnya has yet to declare war on Czechia. Speaking of war, it appears that Czechia has won the war against the Czech Republic . The October 2016 reports of Czechia's death recall a famous quotation: The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated. - Mark Twain More and more people are using the word Czechia. The CIA World Factbook uses Czechia. Similarly, the US State Department refers to Czechia. In September 2018, the European Union's official style guide proclaimed that Czechia should be used just like we use France. Had you searched for "Czechia" on Eurostat last year, you would have gotten zero results. Today, their databases have over 5,000 entries. On the European Union's list of member states, the EU refers to Czechia, not the Czech Republic. In addition, Google Maps uses Czechia. Apple iOS 11 uses Czechia in its maps and system settings. As usual, the British are slower to change than the Americans: the UK government still clings to the long-form name. No wonder the Yanks wanted independence. Had you Googled “Czechia” in February 2016, you would have gotten 460,000 hits. Today, you'll get 12.5 million hits. Google Trends indicates that when the Czech government announced that "Czechia" would be their... [+]  GOOGLE TRENDS Instagram had 10,000 #Czechia mentions in 2015, but now it's nearly 300,000. In 2015, Twitter and Pinterest had negligible hits when you searched for #Czechia. In 2017, Twitter (300,000 hits) and Pinterest (200,000 hits) have seen a surge of #Czechia usage. Length matters: shorter country names are sexier than long ones. (Photo was taken in 2010 by MARK... [+] Czechia is encouraging English speakers to use its new short-form name.

ENGLISH VERSION: TheRadioVagabond.com  Jeg har været i Senegal før, men det var i den nordlige del. Efter en uge i vidunderlige Gambia, som ligger midt i Senegal tager jeg videre sydpå til den lille badeby Cap Skirring.  Inden da møder jeg en polsk hostel-ejer i Gambias hovedstad Banjul. Hør hvordan en polak lander lige præcis her. På turen ned til Cap Skirring får jeg følgeskab af Alex, en ung dansker, der tilfældigvis skal samme vej. Jeg falder så godt til i Cap Skirring, at jeg vælger at blive lidt længere - og går på jagt efter et sted med bedre wifi.    LINKS: Sponsor Hotels25.dk  Se billeder på Radiovagabond.dk   Følg også RadioVagabond på Facebook, Twitter, Instagram og YouTube.    

Møte damen som akkurat har etablert Gambias første krisesenter for voldsutsatte kvinner. Hun har også et brennende engasjement for kvinner som er utsatt for kjønnlemlestelse, og mener at Norge bør tilby rekonstruksjon av klitoris. Maimuna forteller om hvordan det selv er å bli utsatt for partnervold og hvor krevende det er å komme seg ut av en slik relasjon. Hun gir også et innblikk i hvordan Gambisk kultur og patriarkatet påvirker kvinner. Hun snakker også åpent om hvordan kjønnslemlestelse har påvirket henne, og hvordan det føles å bli møtt av det norske helsevesenet når du har blitt utsatt for dette. Hun mener at rekonstruksjon av klitoris bør bli gjort tilgjengelig i norsk helsevesen, på lik linje med en fedmeoperasjon. ---Har du innspill, ris eller ros? Forslag til gjester? Forslag til tema?

Amie har haft staycation in Sthlm medan Fanna förlorade 35 dollar på bajsflätor. Men det är inte mycket pengar i jämförelse med vad Gambias f.d. president rånade landet på. I veckans avsnitt av Raseriet diskuterar kusinerna att Gambia har en ny president och svarar på frågan vart de ser sig själva om fem år. Tune in!

I december 2016 förlorar Gambias president Yahya Jammeh förvånande presidentvalet mot Adama Barrow. När han vägrar erkänna sig besegrad börjar en intensiv kamp för att få till ett fredligt maktskifte. När Adama Barrow vinner presidentvalet i Gambia är det många som knappt kan tro att det är sant. Sittande president Yahya Jammehs har styrt landet med järnhand 22 år, sedan han tog makten i en militärkupp 1994. Först erkänner han sig besegrar, men ändrar sig sedan och vägrar lämna ifrån sig makten. Nu börjar en månad av intensiva förhandlingar och hot om en militär invasion, för att säkerställa Gambias första fredliga maktskifte någonsin. Samtidigt sprider gambianer världen över budskapet #GambiaHasDecided och folk som har levt under förtryck i över 20 år vågar äntligen tala ut.   Av: Martina Pierrou och Palmira Koukkari Mbenga

Alagi M´Bye är en av Gambias främsta koraspelare och han spelar ofta i Sverige, och i denna P2-dokumentär lär vi känna honom närmare. Alagi M'Bye har spelat med svenska musiker sedan 90-talet, exempelvis med Mats Edén och Groupa, Ale Möller och dennes Stockholm Folk Big Band Project 1998-99 och på senare år med jazzpianisten Arne Forsén. M'Bye är jali. Det betyder att han är en musikalisk berättare och traditionsbärare i rakt nedstigande led från sin far och farfar. Som sådan lärde han sig spela kora som mycket liten, men han har också samtidigt brutit med den tradition som säger att bara män av jali-släkt får lära sig spela kora. I den musikskola som M'Bye har startat i sin hemby Nema Kunku alla är välkomna oavsett kön, härkomst eller släktförhållanden och det är där vi först träffar honom. I programmet deltar vi också i en workshop som Alagi M'Bye har med svenska ungdomar i Ångermanland, följer med honom till hans svenska hem - hos Arne Forsén och hans familj - till en spelning på en bröllopsfest och ett möte med hans forna elev Sousou Cissoko.

Tänases saates on külas juuni algul aasta parima reisiblogijaks valitud Birgit Kool. Nagu õigele reisiblogijale kohane, saabus Birgit just eile Taanist, kus ta viimased paar aastat on õppinud. Birgit jutustab, miks ta sattus üksinda 15-aastaselt Brasiiliasse ja mida see tema jaoks muutis(14:23); kuidas Gambias aus taksojuht tema iPhone’i tagastas(22:16) ning tänase Istanbuli terrorirünnaku valguses, mis emotsioonid teda Pariisi terrorirünnaku ajal Prantsusmaal elades valdasid. (10:50) Samuti annab ta nõu ja inspireerib neid, kes unistavad reisimisest, aga pole veel seda teinud. (29:49)
