Welcome back to another episode of Upside at the EUVC Podcast, where ⁠Dan Bowyer⁠,⁠ Mads Jensen⁠ of ⁠SuperSeed⁠, ⁠Lomax Ward⁠ of ⁠Outsized Ventures⁠⁠, and this week's guest Jone Vaituleviciute, Managing Partner at ⁠Firstpick⁠ VC, unpack the forces shaping venture across Europe and the Baltics.This week's conversation bridges Lithuania's booming early-stage scene and Europe's macro tensions — from defense investments and bootstrapping culture to Matt Clifford's call for “permissionless growth,” the rise of quant capital, and how Europe's AI reality is evolving fast.

Located on the Baltic Sea, sandwiched between the nations of Lithuania and Poland, is the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad. Kaliningrad, as it is today, does not have a deep history. For most of its history, it was known as Königsberg. The reason it exists at all dates back to the Teutonic Knights in the Middle Ages and the aftermath of two world wars in the 20th century.  Today, its status is unique to say the least, and it has the potential to become a geopolitical flashpoint. Learn more about Kaliningrad and its history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. Sponsors Quince Go to quince.com/daily for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 189-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 27,906 on turnover of 8.8-billion N-T. The market took a beating on Wednesday, led by large cap artificial intelligence-related stocks on the back of heavy losses by tech stocks on Wall Street overnight amid investor concerns of an A-I bubble. MOFA still in talks with Estonia over opening reciprocal offices Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung says the government is still in talks with Estonia on the "name and legal status" related to setting up reciprocal (互惠的) representative offices. Speaking during a legislative hearing, Lin said the ongoing talks are focusing on issues such as the title of the representative offices, their legal status, and other concerns related to diplomatic immunity and privileges. The statement follows reports that the government is hoping the office will follow the formula of its counterpart in Lithuania, called the "Taiwanese Representative Office in Lithuania." However, Estonia is reportedly insisting on using the title "Taipei" due to concerns about a backlash from China. DPP claims 'most' people oppose opposition pension proposals The D-P-P legislative caucus says a recent survey shows a majority (多數) of people oppose bills proposed by the K-M-T to end annual cuts to civil servant pensions. The survey was conducted by the D-P-P. According to D-P-P lawmaker Wu Si-yao, it found that 59.7-per cent of respondents supported continuing pension reforms initiated by the D-P-P in 2016, while only 31.7-per cent thought they should be stopped. Wu says stopping reforms will exacerbate inequality between active and retired workers, civil servants and workers receiving labor, farmer and national pensions. The K-M-T legislative caucus has placed the bills at the top of its priority for the current legislative session. Philippine Typhoon Death Toll Rises Philippine officials say the death toll from flooding and damage caused by Typhoon Kalmaegi has risen to at least 114. They say 127 others are reported missing, with many of them in a hard-hit province still recovering from a deadly earthquake. The Philippine government says most of the deaths were reported in the central province of Cebu, which was struck by Kalmaegi on Tuesday, setting off flash floods and causing a river and other waterways to overflow (溢出). Kalmaegi moved away from western Palawan province into the South China Sea before noon Wednesday and was heading toward Vietnam. Supreme Court skeptical of Trump tariffs The US Supreme Court appeared skeptical of President Donald Trump's power to unilaterally impose tariffs during a three-hour hearing. It comes after Trump used a law designed for national emergencies to justify his sweeping (廣泛的，全面的) economic agenda Nick Harper reports from the Supreme Court in Washington DC. Interpol Launches Campaign to Fight Illegal Deforestation Interpol and partners have launched a global law enforcement effort to fight illegal deforestation in tropical areas. Wednesday's announcement says it's aimed at dismantling (拆解) criminal networks behind illegal logging, timber trafficking and gold mining. They drive large-scale deforestation and generate billions in illicit profits each year. The effort was announced ahead of the U.N. COP30 climate summit in Brazil. It will focus mainly on tropical forests in Brazil, Ecuador, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Peru. Interpol is working with with the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime on the new effort.

Today in Jamaica, people are picking up the pieces after the strongest storm seen on Earth — and the strongest hurricane in Jamaica's history — thrashed the island. Also, an attack by Israeli forces inside Gaza leaves at least a hundred Palestinians dead. And, Lithuania closes its border with Belarus for a month. Also, the Netherlands uses “harm reduction” instead of jail time to address its drug crisis.

In early September, worshippers gathering for dawn prayers at several locations across Paris discovered a gruesome and spiteful scene – bloodied pigs' heads discarded on the doorsteps of their mosques. A deeply offensive act, Muslims are forbidden from eating pork and consider pigs to be unclean.Soon after, a farmer in Normandy in northern France, who had seen news reports of the dead animal heads appearing around the city, contacted police to say two people driving a vehicle with Serbian number plates had purchased ten pigs heads from his farm.Further investigations by French authorities found the pigs heads had been placed outside the mosques by foreign nationals with the “clear intention of causing unrest within the nation”.This provocative stunt was just one of a range of bizarre and potentially lethal incidents over recent months that have been linked to a Russian campaign to inflame divisions and spread fear across Europe. Other incidents tracked back to Russian intelligence include the burning of a Warsaw shopping centre and a warehouse in London; exploding parcels in Leipzig and Birmingham and the recent disruption of airports with drones and smuggler balloons in Norway, Denmark and Lithuania.Who is carrying out this wide array of sabotage-style stunts and do the criminals responsible even know they're being hired by Russian officials?What is Russia's long-term goal in fostering instability and discord across Europe?And how is Russia targeting Ireland as part of this strategy?Today, on In The News, how Russia's hybrid war is sowing chaos across Europe.Irish Times Europe correspondent Naomi O'Leary discusses Moscow's campaign of sabotage and espionage, which has steadily intensified since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022.Presented by Sorcha Pollak. Produced by Andrew McNair. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We speak with Toomas Hendrik Ilves, the former president of Estonia, who, during his presidency (2006-2016), faced increasing Russian cyberattacks and efforts to destabilize the region.After Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, eyes have also been turned towards the Baltic states. Will Putin risk invading Estonia, Latvia, or Lithuania? Twenty-four years after the fall of the Soviet Union and the restoration of independence, the Baltic states have become frontline nations between Russia and the West. How do Russia's neighbors, who have endured years of Russian oppression, view Europe's security challenges now that Russia is increasingly testing the borders of Nato-territory?"Losing democracy happens in much the same way as a character goes bankrupt in Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises: “gradually, and then suddenly" Toomas Hendrik Ilves, in The EconomistToomas Hendrik Ilves, President of Estonia from 2006 to 2016, has been a key figure in shaping Estonia's post-Soviet transformation and its role in Europe. Born in Sweden to Estonian refugee parents who fled Soviet occupation and mass deportation to Siberia, Ilves was deeply influenced by their experience of displacement. Before becoming president, he served as Estonia's Ambassador to the United States and played a pivotal role in Estonia's accession to the European Union and NATO in 2004. Durign his presidency he focused on Estonia's digital innovation and cybersecurity and European integration.Programme editor: Veronica BaasModerator: Yoeri AlbrechtSupported by: NATOZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

America has been blessed with legal immigrants who came willing to work, to learn the language, adapt to our culture, and to become contributing members of society. They did not come for hand-outs – they came to build a better life. The American Dream has inspired millions of native-born and immigrant citizens to flourish in freedom. Those born and raised in liberty often take it for granted, but those who have experienced tyranny know first-hand the warning signs of societal upheaval and collapse. Rimantas Jurevicius lived under Soviet rule and immigrated from Lithuania to pursue freedom and opportunity. He shares with Linda stories of persecution, survival, hope, and success, and he also shares warnings and concerns for the future of America if we do not preserve the God-given freedoms protected by our Constitution.  ©Copyright 2025, Prosperity 101, LLC __________________________________________________________ For information about our online course and other resources visit: https://prosperity101.com To order a copy of Prosperity 101 – Job Security Through Business Prosperity® by Linda J.

In this enlightening episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill is joined by historian and author Dr. Francis Young to delve into the often overlooked history of Eastern Europe. Together, they challenge the dominant narratives surrounding the region, particularly the misconceptions that arise from a focus solely on the 20th century and the pervasive influence of Russian perspectives.Episode Highlights:- Uncovering the Past: Dr. Young discusses his latest project, Silence of the Gods, which aims to excavate the religious histories of Eastern Europe, highlighting the unique traditions of its lesser-known pagan peoples.- The Misunderstood Region: The conversation critiques the tendency to ignore Eastern Europe's rich pre-20th century history and the impact of this historical short-sightedness on contemporary understanding.- The Role of Kyivan Rus: Explore the significance of Kyivan Rus and its legacy in shaping modern Ukrainian identity, as well as the historical contestation between Ukraine and Russia.- The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth: Discover the complexities of this once-great state, its unique political structure, and its cultural diversity, which included a multitude of religions and languages.- National Identity and Resistance: Dr. Young highlights the resilience of national identities in Eastern Europe, particularly in Poland and Lithuania, amidst the pressures of imperial powers.- Recommendations for Further Reading: Gain insights into essential literature that expands on the themes discussed, including works by Robert Frost and Richard Butterwick Pavlikovsky.Join us for a thought-provoking discussion that not only sheds light on the historical significance of Eastern Europe but also encourages a deeper appreciation for its diverse cultures and identities. Dr. Young's book, Silence of the Gods, is set to be released in June, and you can find a link to pre-order it in the show notes.Connect with Dr. Francis Young:- Follow him on X: @rfrancisyoungSupport History Rage:If you're enjoying this episode, consider joining the 'Angry Mob' on Patreon at patreon.com/historyrage for exclusive content, early access, and the coveted History Rage mug.Follow the Rage:- Twitter: @HistoryRage- Instagram: @historyrageStay curious, stay passionate, and most importantly, stay angry!

‘Noisy Neighbors' (Swedish title: ‘Bullret I byn'). A audio documentary in 3 episodes by Mattias Wallenius. For over a decade, noise complaints have shaped the music scene in Stockholm. Many venues have been forced to close down or move due to neighbors being disturbed. ”Noisy neighbors” (Swedish title: ”Bullret i byn”) investigates the relationship between music, sound and city life in the Swedish capital. The series follows Fylkingen, one of the oldest still active organisations for experimental music in the world, as they are being evicted from their venue after almost 40 years. But they are far from alone. A series in three parts, where the sounds of the city, memories and actual noise complaints submitted to the Swedish Environmental Department blend together to create something between a documentary and music in itself.

A rogue balloon drifting across Lithuanian airspace isn't just unusual — it's disruptive. In this episode, we unravel the bizarre story of a balloon smuggling cigarettes into Lithuania, how it triggered massive flight delays, and why 6,000 passengers were left stranded. What began as an offbeat smuggling tactic turned into a case study in national security, air traffic control, and the unexpected fragility of modern travel. This Week's Featured Hashtag#BibleStudyBandsOther Interesting ThingsJohn Chapter 20 Verses 27-28Cool Patch PumpkinsWorld's Largest Corn Maze 2007KCRA Article on Cool Patch PumpkinsSend a text to The Ebone Zone!
