Halo sobat kreatif…di episode KamisTeri kali ini, giliran penyiar kita sendiri, Fikri, yang bakal cerita pengalaman horor waktu masih SMA.Semua berawal saat kegiatan Perjusa dan LDK yang seharusnya jadi momen seru bersama teman-teman.Tapi suasana berubah mencekam ketika satu peserta tiba-tiba kesurupan.Nggak berhenti di situ, kesurupannya justru nyamber ke peserta lain satu per satu.Teriakan, tangisan, dan kepanikan mulai memenuhi area perkemahan.Malam yang awalnya penuh canda berubah jadi pengalaman yang nggak akan pernah dilupakan.Apa sebenarnya yang terjadi malam itu?Dan bagaimana rasanya berada di tengah kesurupan massal yang terus menyebar?Dengerin cerita lengkapnya di KamisTeri.Karena di KamisTeri…kamu nggak sendirian.Penyiar: FikriTamu: JiraOperator: BillyMusic Director: FattaahEditor: IlhamJangan lupa follow kita ya!Instagram: @polimedia_radioTikTok: @polimediaradio

Kuomet fizikai prabilo apie keliones laiku kaip apie teoriškai įmanomą galimybę? Kaip galėtų veikti laiko mašina? Kodėl kelionę ateities link yra lengviau įgyvendinti nei šuolį į praeitį?Į kokį LDK laikotarpį istorikai rekomenduotų nusitaikyti pasiryžėliams keliauti laiku? Kokius namų darbus turėtų atlikti tokie nuotykių ieškotojai? Ką apie Viduramžių visuomenę derėtų išsiaiškinti prieš sėdant į laiko mašiną? Kur keliautojai laiku galėtų apsistoti, ką valgyti, su kuo jiems patartina (ne)bendrauti, kokių dalykų vengti?Pokalbis su istorikais - Vilniaus universiteto Istorijos fakulteto doc. Tomu Čelkiu, dr.

Kodėl žygeiviams būtų įdomu keliauti po Stulgių apylinkes, kurios siekia LDK laikus?Gerą dieną Stulgių neogotikinio stiliaus raudonplytė bažnyčia, primenanti tvirtovę, matosi nuo Kryžkalnio. Apie nedidelę ir varganą parapiją 1847 metais kunigas Motiejus Valančius rašė: „Klebonija nieko naudos, vos gali kunigu išmisti“. Sudegus medinei bažnyčiai, tuometinis klebonas kunigas Antanas Skinderis su parapijiečiais pastatė naują mūrinę šventovę.Stulgių kapinėse ilsisi Lietuvai nusipelnę žmonės.Kryžkalnio obelisko prototipas – Desiukiškių kalavijas.Po Kražių kraštą, Stulgių apylinkes, keliauti kviečia Keliautojo žinynų autoriai ir leidėjai Vytenis Almonaitis ir Junona Almonaitienė.Ved.

Šie metai Lietuvoje oficialiai paskelbti Motiejaus Kazimiero Sarbievijaus ir Baroko literatūros metais.Jėzuito, profesoriaus, retorikos teoretiko, bene žymiausio lotyniškai rašiusio Lietuvos baroko epochos poeto veikla glaudžiai siejasi su LDK, ypač Vilniumi ir Kražiais, kurių kraštovaizdį poetas užfiksavo savo kūryboje.Su mokslininkais, Keliautojo žinyno sudarytojais, Vyteniu ir Junona Almonaičiais lankysimės Kražiuose ir apylinkėse. Užsuksime į Motiejaus Kazimiero Sarbievijaus Kražių kultūros centrą, susipažinsime su direktore Lina Mikalajūnaite.Ved. Jolanta Jurkūnienė
