Následující příběh byl tak tajný, že o něm dlouho nic nevěděly dokonce ani československé tajné služby a vlastně dodnes toho o něm víme jen málo... Praha a Havana měly v dobách studené války výjimečné vztahy. Začaly se rozvíjet záhy po vítězství kubánské revoluce v lednu 1959. Už příští rok otevřelo Československo na Kubě svou ambasádu a zahájilo intenzivní styky s novou kubánskou vládou. Spolupráci zahájily také rozvědky obou zemí. V 60. letech rozjely akci s názvem Manuel.

We take a closer look at the online world known as the manosphere—a loose network of communities including incels, Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW), men's rights activists (MRAs), and pick-up artists (PUAs).These groups may look different on the surface, but they share a common core: resentment toward feminism, nostalgia for traditional masculinity, and a belief that men are the new victims of modern society. With guidance from researcher Havana Mohr-Ramirez, we unpack how these subcultures operate, where they overlap, and why they've become such powerful forces in shaping how young men see themselves and their place in the world.Drawing on insights from Laura Bates, author of Men Who Hate Women, and sociologist Ellis Cashmore, the episode examines whether the manosphere is an organized movement or something more elusive that still influences real attitudes, politics, and violence.This documentary episode goes beyond headlines and outrage to ask deeper questions about identity, belonging, and what happens when online spaces built around grievance start reshaping the world outside the screen.Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

How did Ana Montes spy for Cuba for 17 years while surrounded by FBI agents, which included her own relatives? Investigative journalist Jim Popkin joins spy novelist Charlie Higson to reveal how the Pentagon's top Cuba analyst maintained her double life, and shared Thanksgiving dinner surrounded FBI family members while feeding America's military secrets to Havana. Having spent extensive time with Montes' own siblings, Popkin knows this remarkable story of deception inside out - from Montes' risky romance with an intelligence officer, to the psychological discipline that kept her hidden in plain sight. It's a tale that shook US intelligence to its core, wrapped around a family drama that still reverberates today.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Em abril de 1961, um grupo de exilados cubanos anticastristas, treinados e apoiados pela CIA, tentou invadir Cuba pela Baía dos Porcos, no que ficou conhecido como uma das mais emblemáticas derrotas militares da Guerra Fria. A operação, lançada poucos meses após John F. Kennedy assumir a presidência dos Estados Unidos, pretendia derrubar o governo socialista de Fidel Castro, mas terminou em fracasso após apenas três dias de combates. As forças cubanas, preparadas e armadas pelo Bloco do Leste, rapidamente derrotaram os invasores, consolidando o poder da Revolução Cubana e ampliando as tensões entre Washington e Havana. Convidamos Vitor Soares para explicar como se deu a Invasão da Baía dos Porcos, seus desdobramentos políticos e o impacto desse episódio na consolidação do regime de Fidel Castro e no acirramento da Guerra Fria na América Latina.Financiamento coletivo do jogo Imperialismo: América CLICANDO AQUI⁠Adquira o curso História: da pesquisa à escrita por apenas R$ 49,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adquira o curso A Operação Historiográfica para Michel de Certeau por apenas R$ 24,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adquira o curso O ofício do historiador para Marc Bloch por apenas R$ 29,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colabore com nosso trabalho em ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠apoia.se/obrigahistoria⁠⁠⁠Calor chegando, hora de usar INSIDER!

On January 8, 1959, Fidel Castro and his ragtag army marched into Havana and proclaimed victory in the Cuban revolution. Much of the world knew Cuba primarily from its 1930 megahit "El Manicero" ("The Peanut Vendor") and from the mambo craze of the 1950's. After Castro came to power, the economic, political and cultural doors between Cuba and the U.S. would soon be shut. The doors opened briefly for tours by Cuban artists in the U.S. during the Carter and Clinton administrations. In this broadcast, we savor sounds from the pre-Revolutionary golden age of Cuban music that sets the scene for the international success of Cuban music. We illustrate how popular music in Africa and the Americas is not imaginable without the influence of Cuban music--copied and adapted on three continents. We'll hear the stories and rare recordings of such core styles as son - as well as luminaries like Beny Moré, Arsenio Rodriguez, Celia Cruz and the Sexteto Habanero; along with less well known artists.

Yale historian and memoirist Carlos Eire recounts his extraordinary journey from being an 11-year-old Cuban boy in Operation Peter Pan—sent to the United States to escape Fidel Castro's regime—to becoming a National Book Award–winning author and chaired professor at Yale. Eire discusses the painful separation from his family, the challenges of assimilation, and the lifelong tension between his Cuban and American identities, themes he explores in his acclaimed memoirs Waiting for Snow in Havana and Learning to Die in Miami. The conversation also delves into Eire's recent book They Flew: A History of the Impossible, which examines early modern testimonies of levitation, bilocation, and miracles, and how belief, culture, and skepticism shaped their reception. Eire also reflects on Cuban history, the failures of the Castro regime, the broader Hispanic experience in America, and the enduring clash between materialist skepticism and openness to mystery.

I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA podcast is one of the most influential artists working in the world right now, TANIA BRUGUERA! Hailed for her installation and participatory performance works that blur the boundaries between art and reality, Bruguera has dedicated her life to making work that explores freedom of expression, immigration, totalitarianism, and human rights. She has brought attention to the strict control of Cuban authorities by confronting visitors at Tate Modern with performer police officers on horseback, to setting up an open debate on an official-looking stage at the Havana Biennale to give people license to say what they want for one minute… Her work – often set in the framework of the theatre – has continued to push art to its limits and grant space for important and difficult conversations to take place. As she has said: “In a way, when you talk about politics, there is a lot of theatre involved. And what I'm trying to do with my art is how can we break the classic theatre where everything has already been decided, into a place where people can add something to the discourse”. Born in Cuba in 1968, Bruguera was raised during the era of Fidel Castro by a diplomat and minister father in the Castro government. She moved three times – to Paris, Lebanon, and Panama – before returning to Havana, where she graduated from the Escuela de Arte San Alejandro, and would go onto complete MFAs in painting and performance in Havana and Chicago. Since then, Bruguera has researched both the promise and failings of the Cuban Revolution, in performance pieces that allow her audience to unite and gather together and see and experience what lies behind governmental propaganda. Not only do these works speak universally, transcending time and place, but they are a great comment on the promises and failings of institutions and governments today. The founder of the first performance studies programme in Latin America, known as the Behaviour Art School, Bruguera is also Senior Lecturer in Media & Performance, Theater, Dance & Media at Harvard University, where we are recording with her today, and, as an artist I have admired for a very young age, I really can't wait to find out more. --- My new book, How To Live An Artful Life: https://www.waterstones.com/book/how-to-live-an-artful-life/katy-hessel/9781529155204 --- THIS EPISODE IS GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY THE LEVETT COLLECTION: https://www.famm.com/en/ https://www.instagram.com/famm_mougins // https://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858947037 Follow us: Katy Hessel: @thegreatwomenartists / @katy.hessel Sound editing by Nada Smiljanic Music by Ben Wetherfield

Che Guevara – the man whose name became a global symbol of rebellion and justice. Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this multi part series. This is Part -7. Events happened from 1959 September to 1960 December - Critical role in establishing relationships with Russia - Close friend Camilo's mysterious death - Sabotage in ship docked in Havana port - Who is this Tamara Bunk? are covered in this episode.

We explore her legacy of resilience through imprisonment, exile, and sacrifice, and how her story forces us to question who controls history.Meanwhile, Ghana's president delivers a bold call at the UN, declaring the transatlantic slave trade “the greatest crime against humanity” and reigniting conversations on reparations, restitution, and accountability.

Coen van de Ven van De Groene Amsterdammer zat er vier jaar bovenop. De worstelingen van GroenLinks en Partij van de Arbeid met elkaar, met zichzelf, de kiezer, hun leden en hun verleden, idealen en toekomst legde hij nauwkeurig vast. Hij sprak met grote namen en onzichtbare krachten. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger duiken met hem in zijn nieuwe boek 'Een links verhaal', met de ondertitel 'Hoe GroenLinks en de PvdA ondanks alles één werden'. Ze gaan samen naar een volkstuintje, naar meet-ups, naar Pekela, naar eindeloze procedurecongressen, formatietafels en weerbarstig ‘Havana aan de Waal’.

De culturen van de twee partijen zijn boeiend, maar staan vaak diametraal tegenover elkaar. Ook als ze het inhoudelijk overal over eens lijken. Veel GroenLinksers zijn stiekem verliefd op 'oppositie voeren'. Tegendraadse dromers zonder to do-lijstje, want macht geeft maar vuile handen. In de PvdA kennen ze het adagium van de Duitse zusterpartij: 'Opposition ist Mist'. “Als GroenLinksers een boek lezen, dan wordt de wereld dat boek. Bij sociaaldemocraten zit veel meer de traditie van: de wereld is geen boek, maar een bibliotheek", zegt een PvdA-denker. Het maakt de ene partij gevoelig voor nieuwe sfeer en thema's, zoals de bevlieging voor Thomas Piketty of Bernie Sanders, en de andere partij minder beweeglijk, maar daarmee wel meer geworteld. Zo voelden velen bij GroenLinks meer voor samengaan met D66, terwijl bij de PvdA Lodewijk Asscher de SP erbij wilde. Anders hoefde het voor hem niet. Cruciaal noemt Van de Ven de worsteling in de fase tussen de kabinetsformaties van 2017 en 2021. De PvdA versleet toen drie aanvoerders, terwijl GroenLinks ervoer dat ook de succesvolle 'Jessias' geen linkse renaissance kon opleveren. En hoe Jesse Klaver Asscher politiek liet vallen, was geen ingreep die in de PvdA snel vergeten zou worden. De lakmoesproef kwam in 2021. VVD-leider Mark Rutte en CDA-aanvoerder Wopke Hoekstra wilden GroenLinks serieuze macht en veel geld voor klimaatbeleid bieden, maar niet met de getalsmatig niet nodige PvdA erbij. Tenzij ze samen een fractie zouden vormen. Voor zo’n snelle fusie schrok de PvdA op de valreep terug. "Ik heb het verpest", wist fractieleider Lilianne Ploumen. Toch brak GroenLinks het gezamenlijk perspectief niet af. De voortdurende lobby van onderop door leden verenigd in RoodGroen betaalde zich uit. Oppositie van mastodonten uit het verleden bleek te zwak. Met dank aan de snelle val van het kabinet-Schoof is de fusie nu niet meer terug te draaien. Maar een écht ‘Verenigd Links' is het niet, want de twee samengevoegde constructieve, vooruitstrevende partijen – bij de verkiezingen van 2025 voor de tweede keer onder lijsttrekker Frans Timmermans - vertegenwoordigen lang niet het hele progressieve en linkse spectrum. De vraag is nu of GroenLinks-PvdA zich ontwikkelt als partij waarin linksheid zuiverheid betekent of als partij waarin progressiviteit ook ruimte voor de ander betekent. Het beste dat de gefuseerde partij kan overkomen en het slechtste ligt electoraal niet eens zo ver uit elkaar, blijkt uit Van de Vens analyse. Zo is zijn boek onbedoeld een spannende thriller. *** Verder luisteren 480 - De dilemma's van links https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/365fbba7-cf8c-42e5-bcf9-95bb1c189826 195 - PvdA en CDA: ooit dominante machtspartijen, nu grote verliezers.

Assata Shakur, a former member of the Black Liberation Army, has died in Cuba at 78. Shakur was convicted in the 1973 murder of a New Jersey state trooper, escaped prison in 1979, and fled to Cuba, where she was granted political asylum.

HEADLINE: Mikoyan Negotiates the "Crisis of November" with Fidel Castro GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: After the crisis resolution, Nikita Khrushchev rationalized his actions but faced internal criticism. Fidel Castro, who had advocated nuclear attack, felt insulted by the lack of consultation. Khrushchev sent Mikoyan to negotiate with Castro, who refused to allow inspections and sought to retain tactical nuclear weapons, leading to the "crisis of November." The eventual, humiliating Soviet withdrawal verified by US ships was cited in Khrushchev's later removal. 1899 HAVANA

HEADLINE: Nikita Khrushchev's Miscalculation and the Specter of Berlin GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii PlokhyBOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: Nikita Khrushchev, a shrewd politician who succeeded Joseph Stalin, was widely misunderstood as a clown. Khrushchev expected to manipulate the young Jack Kennedy, having once offered campaign assistance. Khrushchev was surprised when Kennedy refused to compromise over the missile deployment. Both leaders were constantly concerned about Berlin; Khrushchev used the threat of escalation there to manipulate Kennedy. 1920 HAVANA

In this episode of Gangland Wire, retired Kansas City Intelligence Detective Gary Jenkins sits down with journalist and author Rich Gazarik to explore a little-known corner of mob history—one that ties the Pittsburgh Mafia to Fidel Castro, stolen guns, and even the Kennedy assassination. Rich's latest book, Gun Smuggling, Castro, and the Pittsburgh Mafia, shines a spotlight on Sam Mannarino, a Pittsburgh mob captain under boss John LaRocca, who hatched a wild plan in the early 1960s: supply Fidel Castro with hundreds of stolen weapons in hopes of carving out a piece of Cuba's casino action. The scheme included an audacious plot to rip off 300 rifles from a National Guard armory in Ohio—an operation that quickly unraveled into chaos. From there, the conversation broadens into the Pittsburgh mob's stranglehold on its city, including political corruption, bribery, and intimidation that reached into the mayor's office and the police department. Rich recounts how Mannarino and his crew maintained a façade of respectability while ruling through violence and fear, leaving a lasting mark on Pittsburgh's civic life. Drawing on decades of investigative journalism and declassified JFK assassination files, Rich also connects the dots between the Pittsburgh Mafia and broader mob influence in the 1960s. We discuss how figures like Carlos Marcello and Santo Trafficante emerged in congressional investigations, feeding speculation that the Mafia's reach extended into Dallas on November 22, 1963. This episode uncovers a forgotten piece of organized crime history where local corruption, mob ambition, and Cold War politics collided. If you want to understand how Pittsburgh's underworld tied into national events, you won't want to miss this deep dive with Rich Gazarik.

I'm here in the studio of Gangland Wire, and I have a story that is kind of topical right now because there's a movie being made about November 1963. And this isn't exactly about Kennedy assassination, but it's all around the Kennedy assassination. And it's about mob guys having connections down in Cuba and with Castro and out of Pittsburgh of all places. Now, go figure that. You know, I always think of Tropicante down in Tampa, and you've got Marcello down in New Orleans. You've got Ardo up in Chicago, and you always think of them, Giancana, having those connections. Well, there was a Pittsburgh guy named Sam Mannarino who had extensive connections down in Cuba. So welcome, Rich Gazarek. [0:51] Thank you, Gary. Appreciate it. Good to have you. Rich, tell the guys the name of your book. I don't have to. I'd have to lean over here and read it. It's a little bit long. So tell the guys the name of your book and a little bit about what it's about. It's called Gun Smuggling, Castro, and the Pittsburgh Mafia. And it was a faction of the Pittsburgh Mafia. [1:11] John LaRocco was the godfather of the Pittsburgh Mom. Sam Mannarino was one of his captains. And Mannarino and his brother Kelly had a casino in Cuba, San Suu Kyi, outside of Havana. And they didn't do very well with it and they eventually sold it. And at the time, Fulgincia Batista was getting a little bit greedy and he was on the...

In remembrance of the legendary Robert Redford, we're resharing this conversation from 2024 on his extraordinary career and most overlooked performances. Welcome to The B-Side, from The Film Stage. Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we talk about the movie star. The person who if you looked up “movie star” in the dictionary there would be a picture of him. Robert Redford!  Today we talk the esteemed career of the quintessential movie star. Our B-Sides include: The Hot Rock, The Great Waldo Pepper, Havana, and The Last Castle. Our guest today is Blake Howard, podcast producer, host, and really good guy. Check out One Heat Minute Productions for everything new and relevant in Blake's world.  We discuss a million things, from why The Hot Rock is so hard to find, to the airplane stunts in The Great Waldo Pepper, to why Havana doesn't work. There's an investigation into the politics of The Last Castle, a brief celebration of Lena Olin, and a quick rave for Jordan Harper's searing short story “My Savage Year.” Additional topics include that upcoming City of Hope release, why Peter Yates is “slow vibes central,” why great screenwriter William Goldman knew why The Great Waldo Pepper underwhelmed at the box office (from his book Adventures in the Screen Trade), and how exactly the A-Side The Natural literally looks like nostalgia. Finally, we mention why Raul Julia didn't take a credit on Havana, we reference that superb Scott Frank New Yorker profile, proclaim ourselves defenders of Hollywood Homicide, and discuss the end of Redford's career.

Part 2 of 2. Anomalous Health Incidents. AHI's. That is what the intelligence community refers to it as, but you likely know it as “The Havana Syndrome.” People reported feeling sick, dizzy, or even worse after experiencing a loud sonic-like wave in and around the U.S. Embassy in Cuba. The U.S. Intelligence Community says there is no evidence of any deliberate actions by a foreign actor. Is there more to the story?

This week the guys talk about 911, power ball, and much more... Thanks for listening, ENJOY IT.

Che Guevara – the man whose name became a global symbol of rebellion and justice. Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this multi part series. This is Part - 5. Che Guevara's journey from Escambray mountains to Santa Clara and from there to Havana in the last phase of Cuba Revolution - is covered in this episode.

How much is a set of gold dentures worth? How many people have to die before this lovable American scoundrel in Havana and his lovely, smokey-voiced ward decide “will they or won't they?” Listen to find out!Gold Dentures, episode 137 of This Gun in My Hand, was crafted and gilded by Rob Northrup. This episode and all others are available on Youtube with automatically-generated closed captions of dialog. Visit http://ThisGuninMyHand.blogspot.com for credits, show notes, archives, and to buy my books, such as Sisyphus, Eat Your Heart Out, available in paperback and ebook from Amazon. How do I sound like someone from a foreign land? This Gun in My Hand! (Wait, I don't mean they fire guns more often. How could anyone have more guns than Americans? Never mind. This Gun in My Hand.)Show Notes:1. If you haven't heard the old time radio drama Bold Venture, you should give it a try. It ran from 1951-1952, starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, set in pre-Castro Cuba.https://archive.org/details/OTRR_Bold_Venture_Singles2. The part of King Moses in Bold Venture was performed by Jester Hairston. One of the first black students to attend Tufts University, Hairston studied music at Julliard, collaborated with Russian composer Dmitri Tiomkin for 30 years, wrote the song “Amen” that became a hit for The Impressions in 1964, and acted in tv and films like The Alamo, To Kill a Mockingbird, In the Heat of the Night, I'm Gonna Git You Sucka and Being John Malkovich.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jester_Hairston3. Music for the Bold Venture radio show was composed by David Rose, who later wrote music for films and tv shows like Leave it to Beaver, Bonanza, Little House on the Prairie and Highway to Heaven. If you think of the jazzy trombone song that has become a cliche of burlesque, you're probably thinking of Rose's composition “The Stripper,” which hit #1 in 1962.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Rose_(songwriter)Credits:The opening and transitional music clips were from episodes of the public domain radio show Bold Venture. Closing music was from the public domain film Killer Bait (1949).

Endurance swimmer Diana Nyad was 64 years old when she became the first person to swim from Cuba to Florida without the use of a shark cage for protection on 2nd September, 2013. Nyad completed the 110-mile swim from Havana to Key West in approximately 53 hours. It was her fifth attempt to swim through the jellyfish-and shark-infested waters of the Straits of Florida. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how Nyad used music and recall to keep her focus; review the conspiracy theories that question if she managed the feat; and consider whether the ‘English Channel Rules' that govern the sport are in need of an update… Further Reading: • ‘Diana Nyad Arrives in Key West After 111-Mile Swim From Cuba' (FlordaKeysTV, 2013): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcvjiw582G0 • The Diana Nyad Cheating Conspiracy Theory (Business Insider, 2013): https://www.businessinsider.com/diana-nyad-cheating-conspiracy-theory-2013-9?r=US&IR=T • ‘It's about having a steel-trap mind' (The Guardian, 2016): https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2016/jul/10/endurance-swimmer-diana-nyad-its-about-steel-trap-mind This episode first aired in 2021 Love the show?

Marga Gomez grew up in Washington Heights, New York City, immersed in a family of Spanish-language entertainers. Welcome to Season 8, Episode 1 of Storied: San Francisco. I first learned of Marga more than a decade ago, through comedy and performance circles I was adjacent to. Because I don't have the world's best memory, I cannot recall exactly where or when I saw her perform, but I do remember feeling an immediate pull to her work. In this episode, Marga shares the story of her parents, growing up in NYC, and coming to San Francisco. We begin in Manhattan, where Marga was born to a comedian/producer/screenwriter Cuban-American dad and a dancer/aspiring actor Puerto Rican mom. Marga went to Catholic school as a youngster, which she says was every bit as harsh as folks say. Looking back, Marga thinks the only discipline she got when she was a kid was through school. Her parents, she says, were narcissists. The two met when Marga's mom danced in a show produced by her dad. The shows were varietal in nature, and took place on stages live at theaters showing Spanish-language Mexican movies. Her dad had danced in shows in Havana pre-Castro. Some white American show producer-types with Johnny Walker, the Scotch company, brought him to New York, unaware that he didn't speak English. It was the Fifties—the height of a Spanish entertainment craze (think Ricky Ricardo). Many folks from Latin America were also immigrating to the US, and New York especially, in those days. And they, too, wanted entertainment. Marga's dad found work in that world, first as a performer, then as a producer. Growing up with locally well-known/borderline famous parents instilled in young Marga a sense that she could do anything she wanted. But when they split up, Marga went with her mom to live in a white neighborhood on Long Island. She was one of the only kids of color in an otherwise homogenous, affluent area. No longer in the Spanish-language community that raised her, she lost that sense of becoming a performer in her own right. She just wanted to graduate high school and get out. And that she did. She ended up at a New York State school on the border of Canada, in Oswego near Lake Ontario. It was still the same weather she used to, but it was time to explore—with pot, acid, and women. She got really into “storyteller” musicians around this time, some women, Dylan, that kind of thing. And she met a woman who later was the reason Marga came to San Francisco. Marga's impression of San Francisco before she moved here was shaped by a magazine feature about the Hippies here at that time—the Seventies. She owes that attraction to her mom's strict parenting style—it was a rebellion in every sense. She'd not made it through to graduation (too much acid, she says), but followed her girlfriend across country to this magical new city. It was 1976, the year of the US Bicentennial. Marga's girlfriend did all the driving (she still doesn't have a license), taking the scenic route along Route 66, through the heart of the United States during its 200th birthday celebration. They saw a lot of Americana—the good and the bad (racism, misogyny, homophobia). It made landing in SF all the more poignant. They came up the California coast, saw Big Sur, then arrived in The City. We end Part 1 with Marga's story of the first place in San Francisco she and her then-girlfriend went—Castro Street. That story is also how her upcoming show, Spanish Stew, begins. More on that in Part 2, which drops this Thursday. That's also the date of the Opening Night of Every Kinda People. We hope to see you at Mini Bar that night for an evening of community, art, drinks, laughter, and love. This episode is brought to you by Standard Deviant Brewing.

Anomalous Health Incidents. AHI's. That is what the intelligence community refers to it as, but you likely know it as “The Havana Syndrome.” People reported feeling sick, dizzy, or even worse after experiencing a loud sonic-like wave in and around the U.S. Embassy in Cuba. The U.S. Intelligence Community says there is no evidence of any deliberate actions by a foreign actor. Is there more to the story?

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump's security promises to Ukraine, Xi's pledge on Taiwan, Israel's expanding Gaza campaign, and Bolivia's rejection of socialism. From tense diplomacy in Washington to regime collapse in Latin America, today's brief connects the global headlines shaping America's future. Trump and European Leaders Debate Ukraine Security Guarantees: At the White House, Trump and European leaders pressed Zelenskyy to accept ceding Crimea and other land to Russia, while pledging U.S. and European backing for Ukraine's defense. Zelenskyy continues to demand binding security guarantees, but questions remain over whether that means U.S. boots on the ground. Bryan explores if America is edging toward a dangerous commitment. The Economics of a Ukraine Deal — Weapons and Minerals: Reports suggest a peace deal could include massive U.S. arms sales funded by Europe, alongside possible access to Ukraine's rare earth deposits. Bryan analyzes why Ukraine's mining industry faces seven major roadblocks, from corruption and infrastructure damage to Russian control of key deposits. History Check: The Budapest Memorandum Was Not a Guarantee: Listener Michelle raises whether America already owes Ukraine a security guarantee dating back to the 1990s. Bryan revisits the Budapest Memorandum, showing it offered only “assurances” — not guarantees — and why Ukraine knowingly traded its nuclear arsenal for cash, energy, and weaker promises. Xi Tells Trump No War with Taiwan — For Now: China's president reportedly told Trump he will not invade Taiwan while Trump is in office. Bryan considers whether this is respect for Trump, fear of U.S. drone defenses, or simply a pause due to China's economic crash, property collapse, and Xi's growing paranoia at home. Israel Prepares for Expanded Gaza War: The Israeli Defense Forces announce plans for a decisive campaign into Gaza City and central refugee camps. Netanyahu pushes to relocate Palestinians abroad while hostage negotiations stall. Israeli protests grow louder, but leadership insists Hamas must be destroyed to secure peace. Bolivia Rejects Socialism After 20 Years of Collapse: Voters oust their Marxist government after two decades of economic ruin, high inflation, shortages, and long fuel lines. The runoff pits a centrist senator and a conservative ex-president, both favoring closer U.S. ties. Bryan warns that Evo Morales, still backed by allies in Havana, Caracas, and Beijing, could yet destabilize Bolivia's democratic turn.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32   Keywords: Trump Ukraine peace deal, Zelenskyy Crimea concessions, Ukraine security guarantees, U.S. weapons sales Europe, Ukraine rare earth minerals, Budapest Memorandum assurances, Xi Trump Taiwan pledge, China economic slowdown property crisis, Israel Gaza expanded war, Netanyahu relocate Palestinians, Bolivia socialism collapse, Evo Morales comeback threat

Gaby Blanco from the Dissident Project was born and raised in Havana, Cuba. She joins me today to talk about the communist island American leftists love to defend— while living in the United States, of course. What's it like to grow up with food rationing, no freedom to criticize the state, and with Cuba's big business of medical slavery? Gaby separates truth from propaganda. I hope you enjoy it. And if you're in Cuba, please let me know. Thanks to the Revolution Cubans in Miami can freely criticize the Cuban government without fear of imprisonment. Cuba would be better off had it not waited until 2021 to legalize private companies.
