Across Europe, a quiet movement is taking shape. From knitting circles in Helsinki to pottery workshops in Brussels, people are rediscovering the simple, grounding act of making things by hand. What began for many as a way to fill the long days of lockdown has grown into something deeper, a form of self-care, a social bond, and even a small act of resistance against the relentless pace of modern life.In this episode of Europe Talks Back, we explore how creative practices such as ceramics, weaving and painting are reshaping wellbeing and community across the continent. We speak with Brussels-based designer and ceramicist Anna Tou, whose workshops offer people a chance to step away from their screens, slow down, and reconnect not just with clay, but with themselves.Together, they reflect on the tactile joy of creation, the patience that crafting demands, and the way art and tradition continue to bring people together in an increasingly digital world.Join us on our journey through the events that shape the European continent and the European Union.Production: By Europod, in co production with Sphera Network.Follow us on:LinkedInInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Every Christmas Eve at noon, Finland pauses as the Declaration of Christmas Peace is read in Turku—a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages and still deeply felt today.In this episode of Helsinki Calling, I reflect on why this moment matters so much to Finns, and share a personal memory from my student years in the USA, when getting back to Helsinki by December 24th meant planning flights carefully—or rerouting via Stockholm and crossing the Baltic Sea by ship.This is a conversation about tradition, belonging, and the quiet importance of being present.Wishing you a peaceful Christmas, wherever you are listening from.
Send us your feedback — we're listeningHebrews 13:3 — Faith Under Fire: Prayer for the Persecuted Church, the Underground Church, the Hidden Church in North Korea, Somalia, Libya and Eritrea — “Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.” 2 Corinthians 4:9 — “Persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.” PRAYER Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we come now into the shadows where our brothers and sisters worship in whispers. We lift before You the persecuted believers of North Korea, Somalia, Libya and Eritrea — nations where faith in Christ is treated as a crime, where gathering is dangerous, where Scripture is hidden, where worship is silent, where courage costs everything. Lord, strengthen the underground church. Strengthen those meeting in safe houses, forests, basements, cellars, prison cells, labour camps, and border zones. Strengthen the pastors who cannot preach openly, the evangelists who share Christ in secret, the families torn apart because of their faith. Strengthen those facing imprisonment, surveillance, confiscation, interrogations, threats and violence because they belong to Jesus. Holy Spirit, surround every persecuted believer with supernatural protection. Hide them under the shadow of the Almighty. Silence the footsteps of danger. Confuse the plans of hostile authorities. Sustain their faith when they feel forgotten. Remind them today they are NOT alone — the global church stands with them. Lord, let the gospel advance in impossible places. Let dreams and visions of Jesus break into prisons and military compounds. Let courage rise. Let hope ignite. Let endurance hold strong. From London to Lagos, from Toronto to Seoul, from Cape Town to Helsinki — we lift our persecuted family to the throne of grace. Jesus, be their shield, their strength, their song, their defender. Amen.SEVEN PRAYER POINTSProtection for persecuted believersStrength for underground churchesCourage under surveillance and threatHope for imprisoned ChristiansComfort for families torn by persecutionBoldness for secret evangelistsSpread of the gospel in restricted nationsLIFE APPLICATION Pray Hebrews 13:3 today.

Teisho by Sangen Salo sensei during zazenkai 23.11.2025 at Helsinki Zen Center, Finland.
A Full House of Bank CEOs (and One Central Banker)We took Fintech Daydreaming on the road to the Nordic Banking Forum in Helsinki, and somehow ended up interviewing more CEOs in one day than we usually see in a year.In this special episode, Pål, Ville — and Janne, once we caught him mid–event sprint — sat down with:.-Prag Sharma (Citi) on agentic AI, future-of-finance vibes, and why 80–90% of bank data suddenly matters..-Janne Salminen (Helsinki Fintech Farm) pops in for a quick Nordic Fintech Highlights segment and shares the annual event-planner panic cycle with us..- Sampsa Laine (Alisa Bank) on SME banking, partner ecosystems, and why mortgages are still a “not yet.”.-Riikka Laine-Tolonen (S-Bank) on running a bank inside a retail empire, loyalty economics, and scaling to 3.4M customers..-Jarkko Mäensivu (Saldo Bank) on embedded finance, European expansion, and building a lean, credit-focused bank..-Aleksi Grym (Bank of Finland) on fraud in instant payments, CBDCs, and why Finland quietly invented half this stuff in the '90s (and already shut it all down long time ago). Been there. Got the t-shirt. Wrote an excellent paper about it.With Citi, Alisa, S-Bank, Saldo Bank, and the actual central bank represented — plus Janne's news segment — this turned into perhaps the most executive-heavy episode we've ever recorded.We celebrated:Zero vendor interferenceZero stablecoin panelsA rare concentration of bank CEOs voluntarily talking to usAnd the survival of an entire live recording day with minimal technical disasters (backdrop changes don't count)And yes, we ended with a fintech dad joke.

This episode introduces The Helsinki Brief, a podcast mini-series on Finnish intelligence and security. Hosted by Dr Paul McGarr of King's College London, the discussion features Hannamiina Tanninen, an analyst at Finnish Security and Intelligence Service (SUPO), about the role and structure of civil intelligence in Finland. The discussion covers SUPO's legal mandate, core functions such as counterterrorism, counterespionage, cyber intelligence and security vetting, and its cooperation with domestic and international partners. The episode also addresses key security threats, including terrorism, cyber activity and state-based intelligence operations, as well as public trust, recruitment and oversight within Finland's intelligence system.
Blogpost asociado https://ecctrainings.com/te-atreverias-a-dar-tromboliticos-prehospitalarios-para-embolia-pulmonar-lo-que-revela-el-nuevo-estudio-y-como-prepararte-con-acls/" Referencia del estudio original: Harjola, J., Holmström, P., Sane, M., Hartikainen, J., & Harjola, V.-P. (2025). Prehospital fibrinolysis in high-risk pulmonary embolism – Observational data on clinical picture and outcome. Prehospital Emergency Care, 29(7), 1–8. https://doi.org/10.1080/10903127.2025.2582671 Recordatorio rápido: embolia pulmonar de alto riesgo Definición sencilla: EP de alto riesgo / masiva → se manifiesta como shock obstructivo o paro cardiaco. Fisiopatología en pocas palabras: Trombo grande en circulación pulmonar → aumento de poscarga del ventrículo derecho → falla del VD → colapso hemodinámico. Por qué es tan letal: Deterioro muy rápido, ventana terapéutica corta. Frecuentemente se presenta como paro fuera del hospital. Conectar con ACLS: La EP masiva está dentro de las "T" (tromboembolismo) en las causas reversibles del paro. Las guías ACLS contemplan el uso de trombolíticos cuando se sospecha fuertemente EP como causa del paro. ¿Cómo se ve clínicamente un paciente con EP de alto riesgo? Disnea súbita, dolor torácico, síncope, hipotensión, antecedentes de riesgo trombótico. Resumen del estudio de Harjola et al. Objetivo principal del estudio Explorar supervivencia y complicaciones hemorrágicas del uso de trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar de alto riesgo. Diseño Datos de EMS del área metropolitana de Helsinki + hospital universitario. Periodo aproximado: 2007–2019. Inclusión: Pacientes con EP de alto riesgo sospechada clínicamente. Tratados con fibrinolisis intravenosa prehospitalaria. Diagnóstico de EP confirmado posteriormente por imagen o autopsia. Grupo comparador: Pacientes con EP de alto riesgo que no recibieron fibrinólisis prehospitalaria. Resultados clave Total de pacientes con EP de alto riesgo: 60. Grupo con trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar: n = 23. 44% mujeres. Edad media: alrededor de 57 años. 74% se presentaron en paro cardiaco. 26% en shock obstructivo. Mortalidad: Mortalidad prehospitalaria aproximada: 35%. Mortalidad intrahospitalaria: alrededor de 27% de los que llegaron vivos. Mortalidad total combinada: cerca de 52%. Todas las muertes en este grupo fueron en pacientes que llegaron en paro cardiaco. Complicaciones: 2 pacientes con sangrado mayor. Ningún sangrado fatal. Supervivencia a 12 meses: Los pacientes trombolizados que salieron vivos del hospital seguían vivos a los 12 meses. Grupo sin trombolisis prehospitalaria: n = 37. Más añosos (edad media cercana a 72 años). Mayor proporción de paro cardiaco. Mortalidad a 12 meses más alta (≈ 76%, tendencia, p alrededor de 0.06). Comentario para desarrollar: Es un estudio observacional, con n pequeño, no podemos concluir causalidad, pero sí hay "señales" interesantes de posible beneficio. ¿Qué nos dice realmente este estudio? Mensajes principales La EP de alto riesgo fuera del hospital tiene una mortalidad muy alta aun con intervenciones agresivas. En este contexto crítico, los trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar: Parecen relativamente seguros (pocas hemorragias mayores, ninguna fatal). Podrían ofrecer un beneficio en supervivencia, especialmente en pacientes seleccionados. Limitaciones para mencionar Serie de casos; no es ensayo aleatorizado. Número pequeño de pacientes trombolizados. Posible sesgo de selección: Pacientes más jóvenes y potencialmente con menos comorbilidades recibieron trombólisis. No responde preguntas como: Detalle exacto del protocolo. Diferencias entre equipos. Tiempos exactos desde el colapso hasta la trombólisis. Idea clave: No es un "permiso" para trombolizar a todo el mundo, pero sí una invitación seria a considerar que, en EP de alto riesgo, la inacción también tiene un costo muy alto. El reto práctico: decidir trombolisis en el campo Barreras en la vida real Diagnóstico presuntivo sin imagen: Dependemos de clínica, antecedentes, ECG, quizás eco focal. Miedo al sangrado: Especialmente hemorragia intracraneal. Falta de protocolos claros: Muchos sistemas de EMS no contemplan todavía trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar. Falta de entrenamiento específico: No todos se sienten cómodos con indicaciones, contraindicaciones, dosis. Cómo ayuda ACLS aquí ACLS bien aprendido: Te obliga a pensar en H y T, no solo en adrenalina y ciclos. Te muestra dónde se colocan los trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar dentro del algoritmo. Te entrena para liderar un equipo y tomar decisiones bajo presión. Conectar con los cursos de ECCtrainings: En nuestros ACLS discutimos escenarios de paro por EP masiva. Practicamos cómo tomar la decisión de administrar o no trombolítico. Simulamos la comunicación con el hospital receptor después de trombólisis. Caso clínico narrado Propuesta de caso Varón de 48 años. Disnea súbita, dolor torácico, antecedente de inmovilidad o TVP reciente. Hipotenso, taquicárdico, saturación baja, signos de shock. En la ambulancia entra en PEA. El equipo evalúa H y T → EP masiva muy probable. Protocolo local permite trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar: Se administra el medicamento durante la RCP. Después de varios ciclos recupera pulso. Llega vivo al hospital, se confirma EP por imagen y sobrevive. Puntos a resaltar Valor de: reconocer el patrón clínico, tener protocolos, estar entrenado en ACLS. Conectar con la serie de Helsinki: "Son justamente este tipo de pacientes los que aparecen en la serie: altísimo riesgo, pero con posibilidad real de supervivencia si somos agresivos." Cómo prepararte tú y tu sistema Pasos sugeridos para líderes, educadores y clínicos de EMS Revisar la evidencia Usar este estudio como punto de partida para la discusión sobre trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar. Evaluar la realidad local ¿Disponibilidad del medicamento? ¿Quién puede prescribir y administrar? ¿Qué soporte hospitalario hay (UCI, hemodinamia, ECMO)? Desarrollar protocolos claros Criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Algoritmo que integre ACLS y trombólisis. Entrenamiento formal No basta con escribir el protocolo; hay que entrenarlo en simulación. Cursos ACLS con escenarios específicos de EP. Simulaciones y revisión de casos Simulacros periódicos con roles definidos. Morbimortalidad / debriefing de casos reales o simulados. Comunidad: seguir la conversación en ECCnetwork ECCnetwork: Comunidad en línea para profesionales de emergencias, cuidado crítico, medicina táctica, etc. Espacios para discutir artículos, casos, protocolos, dudas. Invitar a que compartan: ¿Su sistema consideraría trombolíticos prehospitalarios para embolia pulmonar? ¿Qué barreras ven? ¿Experiencias que puedan comentar?

Tässä jaksossa mikrofonin ääreen istuu yksi eniten toivotuista vieraista keskustelemaan omista huomioistaan ja tutkimusnäytöstä liittyen onnistuneen elämäntaparemontin tekemiseen. Käymme läpi mm. mitkä ovat vieraan oman rautaisen fysiikan tärkeimmät kulmakivet? Miksi moni on niin huonossa kunnossa modernissa maailmassa vaikka mahdollisuuksia onnistumiseen on enemmän kuin koskaan ennen? Kun alkaa tehdä kokonaisvaltaista elämäntaparemonttia, mitkä ovat valmennushavaintojen pohjalta yleisimmät onnistumisen ja epäonnistumisen rakennusaineita? Onko keski-iässä ja ruuhkavuosissa itsensä kuntoon laittaminen ja esim. painonpudotus vaikeampaa kuin nuorempana? Mikä on oikeanlaisen ja vääränlaisen mindsetin vaikutus tuloksien saavuttamisessa? Jos haluaa opetella hyvät elintavat ja päästä hyvään kuntoon, onnistuuko se intuitiivisesti ja fiilispohjalta vai tarvitaanko jotain mekaanisempaa kuten kalorienlaskentaa yms.? Mikä on oman lähipiirin vaikutus kokonaisvaltaisessa elämäntaparemontissa onnistumisessa? Näitä ja muita teeman kysymyksiä kanssani pohtii Fitfarmistakin tuttu valmentaja Matias Koistinen.LinkitOptimal Performance- Hyvinvointiluennot ja verkkovalmennukset: https://www.optimalperformance.fi- Kuntosali ja valmennuskeskus, Helsinki: https://www.opcenter.fiMatias Koistinen- IG: https://www.instagram.com/koistinen_matias/- Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@matiaskoistinen

Episode SummaryOn a warm June night in 1960, four teenagers zipped themselves into a tent on the shores of a quiet lake just outside Helsinki, Finland. By morning, three of them were dead. The fourth — battered, bloodied, and barely alive — would survive… only to be accused of the murders more than forty years later.In this episode of From The Void, we travel back to Lake Bodom, one of the most haunting and infamous unsolved murder cases in European history. What begins as a simple camping trip spirals into a decades-long mystery involving a slashed tent, missing evidence, suspicious locals, Cold War intrigue, and a trial that turned the sole survivor into the prime suspect.This isn't just a true crime story.It's a meditation on silence, memory, and the kind of violence that arrives without warning — and leaves without answers.What We Cover in This Episode

In this episode of Helsinki Calling, listeners are invited to step inside the Nordea Bank Museum and experience one of Helsinki's most beautiful and least-expected interiors. Behind the granite walls of Aleksanterinkatu 36B unfolds a grand banking hall designed in 1898 by Gustaf Nyström—soaring columns, a luminous glass ceiling, and architectural precision that still conveys confidence and calm more than a century later.Beyond the architecture lies a masterful and intimate collection of paintings that transforms the space from historic monument to cultural sanctuary. Highlights include works by leading Finnish artists, most notably Helene Schjerfbeck's My Mother—a deeply human portrait that feels almost secretive in this former seat of financial power. The contrast between economic history and artistic sensitivity is what makes this visit unforgettable.This episode explains why stepping inside matters—and why lingering does too.

Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.A school bans “edges,” a graduation blocks braids, a child with locks is told to stay home—on the surface, they're dress code debates. Look closer and you see a lineage of power: colonial respectability, “imperial cleanliness,” and the policing of Black and Brown bodies through hair. We sit down with artist, educator, and gender rights advocate amilcar sanatan to map how grooming rules took root, why they persist, and what it takes to change them without sacrificing learning or dignity. We unpack the language of “neat,” “professional,” and “acceptable,” tracing it from plantation hierarchies to modern handbooks. Together, we connect scholarship and lived experience—Rastafari resistance and the Coral Gardens legacy, the gendered training of girls into silence and boys into “tidiness,” and the quiet violence of sending students home over texture or style. Along the way, we explore key legal and cultural flashpoints from Trinidad and Tobago's school hair code to Jamaica's Kensington Primary case, and why each decision matters for access to education, equal employment, and human rights.This conversation doesn't stop at critique. We highlight grassroots wins and everyday acts of repair: natural hair days led by young teachers, principals revising codes to center hygiene and safety rather than assimilation, and families rethinking what professionalism looks like in Caribbean contexts. The goal isn't disorder—it's dignity. Keep students in class. Measure readiness by curiosity and conduct, not curls. Celebrate cultural expression while maintaining clear, fair standards that actually support learning. If this resonates, share it with a friend, subscribe for more Caribbean history and culture, and leave a review telling us how grooming rules shaped your school or workplace.

As climate pressures intensify and human activity accelerates, Africa’s hidden species — its reptiles, amphibians, plants and lesser-known mammals — are sounding the loudest alarm. Understanding what’s at stake, and how to protect ecosystems in both wild and human-dominated landscapes, has never been more critical.John Maytham speaks to Dr Hayley Clements, Senior Researcher at Stellenbosch University and the University of Helsinki, about what this research means for conservation, policy, and the future of Africa’s biodiversity Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists. A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions.

S'il y a bien un pays européen qui regarde de très près les négociations en cours pour une paix en Ukraine, c'est la Finlande. Depuis la guerre déclenchée par Moscou, il y a presque quatre ans, Helsinki a non seulement rejoint l'Otan, mais aussi fermé sa frontière avec la Russie. 1 340 kilomètres qui rendent le pays vulnérable, comme l'ont montré les attaques hybrides avec l'envoi de demandeurs d'asile organisé par Moscou. Une vaste clôture est donc en train d'être construite. En Laponie, dans le nord du pays, la petite ville frontalière de Salla est désormais coupée de son voisin. Une garantie de sécurité, mais aussi un changement total d'environnement. Reportage sur place signé Ottilia Férey.

S'il y a bien un pays européen qui regarde de très près les négociations en cours pour une paix en Ukraine, c'est la Finlande. Depuis la guerre déclenchée par Moscou, il y a presque quatre ans, Helsinki a non seulement rejoint l'Otan, mais aussi fermé sa frontière avec la Russie. 1 340 kilomètres qui rendent le pays vulnérable, comme l'ont montré les attaques hybrides avec l'envoi de demandeurs d'asile organisé par Moscou. Une vaste clôture est donc en train d'être construite. En Laponie, dans le nord du pays, la petite ville frontalière de Salla est désormais coupée de son voisin. Une garantie de sécurité, mais aussi un changement total d'environnement. Reportage sur place signé Ottilia Férey.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2020 conversation with Elvis Costello. ABOUT ELVIS COSTELLOReleased between 1977 and 1979, Elvis Costello's first three albums—My Aim is True, This Year's Model, and Armed Forces—were all included in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. That early period of his recording career yielded now-classic singles such as “Alison,” “Watching the Detectives,” “Pump it Up,” “Radio Radio,” “Oliver's Army,” “Accidents Will Happen,” and others.Though he established his career as a rock artist and reached commercial heights in the US with the pop hit “Everyday I Write the Book,” Costello's more than thirty studio albums cover a breathtaking range of stylistic ground, from Almost Blue, his early 1980s album of country covers, to The Juliet Letters, his 1993 collaboration with The Brodsky Quartet, to North, an album of ballads partially inspired by his wife Diana Krall that topped Billboard's Jazz chart in 2003, to Il Sogno, his first full-length orchestral work, which was performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, and topped Billboard's classical chart in 2004, to Wise Up Ghost, a 2013 collaboration with Questlove and The Roots. In between, he's continued to release albums both solo and with his bands The Attractions, The Imposters, and The Sugarcanes. Always an adventurous collaborator, Costello entered into a fruitful songwriting partnership with Paul McCartney that yielded more than a dozen songs, including Costello's Top 10 single “Veronica” and McCartney's “My Brave Face.” He went on to release entire collaborative albums with Richard Harvey, Burt Bacharach, Allen Toussaint, and others. He has written lyrics for compositions by Charles Mingus, Billy Strayhorn and Oscar Peterson, as well as musical settings for lyrics by Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan. His songs have been covered by a range of artists including George Jones, Chet Baker, Dusty Springfield, and Solomon Burke. Costello has been nominated for fourteen Grammy awards, two of which he won, as well as an Academy Award for co-writing “The Scarlet Tide” with T-Bone Burnett for the film Cold Mountain. He has received two Ivor Novello awards for Songwriting, the Americana Music Association's Lifetime Achievement in Songwriting award, and the ASCAP Founder's Award, which was presented by Burt Bacharach. He was inducted into both the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and was named one of the 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time by Rolling Stone magazine. His genre-stretching new album, Hey Clockface, was recorded in Helsinki and Paris, and was released on October 30. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Tähän jaksoon sain vieraaksi monen tunteman online valmentajan keskustelemaan siitä, miten saavutetaan energinen ja tasapainoinen arki elämän myllerrysten ja rankkojen kokemusten jälkeen. Käymme läpi mm. miten keho viestii siitä, että on aika ottaa rennommin? Miten elää kunnianhimoisesti ilman, että se menee överiksi? Mitkä ovat parhaat rutiinit silloin kun elämässä lyö päälle isompi kriisi tai vakavampi terveysongelma? Miten löytyy tasapaino lempeyden, joustavuuden, kurinalaisuuden ja tahdonvoiman välille? Millaisia ajatuksia heräsi kun hyvinvointialan ammattilaisena ja itsestään aina huolehtineena kohtaakin vakavamman sairastumisen? Miten vieras kadotti yhteyden omaan kehoonsa ja pystyi palauttamaan sen?

Episode 10 of 15 | Series 36: Serial Killers in HistoryFinland's first documented serial killer terrorized two continents across three decades. This episode traces Matti Haapoja's brutal journey from famine-ravaged Finland to Siberian exile and back—a life defined by escape, violence, and ultimately, one final act of defiance.Victim HumanizationHeikki Impponen was forty-two years old when he walked along that frozen road in December 1867. A farmer with a wife named Kaisa and three children waiting at home, he had known young Matti since childhood—their fathers had worked neighboring fields, they had been boys together in the harsh Finnish countryside. He carried what little money he had, perhaps hoping to buy food during Finland's devastating Great Famine. Maria Jemina Salo was in her early twenties, trying to survive in Helsinki's rougher districts, wearing a silver necklace her mother had given her. Guard Juho Rosted had worked at Kakola Prison for eleven years, with a pregnant wife expecting their fourth child—a daughter who would never know her father.Why This Case MattersMatti Haapoja's crimes fundamentally reshaped Finland's approach to criminal justice and prison security. His four successful escapes from Kakola Prison exposed critical weaknesses in the nation's penal system, earning the facility the mocking nickname "Pakola"—the escape prison. His case prompted a complete overhaul of prison architecture and security protocols throughout Finland. The investigation techniques developed to track him helped establish the framework for modern Finnish police procedures, while the case demonstrated how the Great Famine of 1866-1868, which killed 270,000 Finns, created conditions where desperate violence flourished.Content WarningThis episode contains descriptions of violent murders and suicide. Listener discretion advised.Key Case DetailsHaapoja's criminal career spanned three decades across two continents, leaving eight confirmed victims dead and exposing the limitations of 19th-century criminal justice systems across Finland and Siberia.• Timeline: First murder December 6, 1867, during Finland's Great Famine; sentenced to Siberian exile in 1880; returned to Finland September 1890; final escape attempt October 10, 1894; death by suicide January 8, 1895• Investigation: Haapoja's escapes revealed major security flaws in Finnish prisons; his capture after Maria Salo's murder came when his notorious reputation led to his recognition in Porvoo just days after the crime• Resolution: Sentenced to death in 1891 (automatically commuted to life imprisonment as Finland had abolished capital punishment in 1826); died by his own hand while awaiting trial for murdering Guard Juho Rosted• Historical Context: The puukkojunkkari (knife-fighter) culture of Southern Ostrobothnia shaped Haapoja's violent identity; his skeleton was displayed in the Finnish Museum of Crime for 99 years before burial in 1995Historical Context & SourcesThis episode draws on records from the National Museum of Finland, the National Biography of Finland, and the BiographySampo database. Prison museum collections preserve the tools of Haapoja's escapes—rope, wooden slats, and a floorboard with a drilled hole. Contemporary newspaper accounts from the 1890s, which sensationally compared his crimes to Jack the Ripper's London murders, provide crucial details about his final trial and death. The Circuit Court records of Hausjärvi from 1891 document his arrogant confession and the commutation of his death sentence.Resources & Further ReadingFor listeners interested in exploring this case and era further, these historically significant sources provide additional context:• The National Museum of Finland maintains archival materials on 19th-century Finnish criminal justice and the puukkojunkkari phenomenon• The Finnish National Biography database (Biografiakeskus) contains verified biographical details on Haapoja and his contemporaries• Academic research on the Great Famine of 1866-1868 illuminates the devastating conditions that shaped Haapoja's early crimesCall-to-ActionNext week on Foul Play: Francisco Guerrero Pérez terrorized Mexico City for decades, targeting women the newspapers refused to mourn.

Tässä jaksossa pohditaan vieraan kanssa miten oma mieli ja ajattelumallit saadaan tukemaan onnistumista. Käydään läpi mm. mitä tarkoitetaan tarkkailijaminällä? Miksi on tärkeä erottaa havainto ja tulkinta toisistaan? Miksi mahdollisuuden asenne on monen onnistumisen taustalla? Mitä tarkoitetaan sillä, että mikään tunne tai ajatus ei ole uhka suorituksen onnistumiselle? Miksi on tärkeä tiedostaa, että miksi tekee mitä tekee? Onko tärkeä pyrkiä tekemään asioita ilon kautta? Miten tulee asennoitua tekemiseen, uhrauksiin ja priorisointiin jos haluaa laittaa itsensä todella hyvään kuntoon? Mitkä ovat vieraan ajatukset itsekurista ja motivaatiosta? Mitä ongelmia voi liittyä sinä riität -ajatteluun? Miten olla hyvällä tavalla itsekäs?

Activist Clare Farrell's current framing of the climate crisis– on confronting political paralysis and urging radical collaboration between grassroots movements for a just, democratic response to rising global threats.Hansen In Helsinki (including Clare farrell's interview): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2abyXGvELIMain website with transcript: https://genn.cc/clare-farrell-interview/This episode, with Extinction rebellion cofounder, Clare Farrell, was recorded in late October at the ATLAS25 conference in Helsinki, following Dr James Hansen's keynote and their subsequent discussion. A link to that recording is in the notes.Hansen placed great emphasis on the role of aerosols in masking extra heating from global warming and how recent spikes in the earth's temperature are linked to a reduction in aerosols over the oceans. He also stressed the need for more research on solar geoengineering citing evidence for how historic volcanic eruptions, not only cooled the planet by reflecting the suns energy back to space but also stimulated carbon sinks creating a greater uptake of carbon dioxide.Here Clare reflects Hansen's findings as well as on a range of issues emphasising the need for humility in facing the enormity and complexity of the climate crisis. She also stressed the dangers of arrogance or over simplistic binary thinking.
