Reisen Reisen - Der Podcast mit Jochen Schliemann und Michael Dietz
Viel Natur, entspannte Lebensart, Kulinarik - wo leben die glücklichsten Menschen der Welt? In Skandinavien. Und genau deshalb feiern Tamina Kallert, Jochen und Michi in dieser Miniserie den hohen Norden mit all seiner Weite, Stille, Musik und diesem besonderen Lebensgefühl, für das die Schweden sogar ein eigenes Wort haben: Lagom. Gerade recht. Nicht mehr, nicht weniger.Tamina war im Sommer mit einem kleinen Bulli durch Småland unterwegs und hat ihren Geburtstag mitten im Mittsommerfest gefeiert. Mit Blumenkranz, Erdbeerkuchen und singenden Fremden auf dem Dorfplatz. Michi hat sich in Stockholm verliebt. Nicht in die Sehenswürdigkeiten, sondern in das Lebensgefühl von Södermalm, wo die Menschen im Sommer auf breiten Boulevards sitzen, als hätte die Zeit aufgehört zu zählen. Jochen hat sein rotes Holzhaus am See gefunden und überprüft lieber nochmal auf Google Maps, ob wirklich niemand in der Nähe wohnt.Dazu gibt es eine Überraschung aus dem Untergrund: die längste Kunstgalerie der Welt führt nicht durch ein Museum, sondern durch die Stockholmer U-Bahn. Und ins ABBA-Museum geht man auch dann, wenn man kein Fan ist. Versprochen.–Bei „Bella Skandinavia" reisen Deutschlands bekannteste Urlaubs-Expertin Tamina Kallert (u. a. „WDR Wunderschön") sowie Jochen Schliemann und Michael Dietz von „Reisen Reisen – der Podcast" durch den magischen Norden Europas.Diese Folge entstand mit freundlicher Unterstützung der Deutschen Bahn: www.bahn.de / Inspirationen Reisen (u.a.

The May Day festival is ten days away, and Daphne is trying to focus on logistics. The garden is not cooperating. Every thought about Matt makes something bloom. Every touch makes something fruit. The orchids have started arranging themselves in suggestive patterns.When she finally confronts him in the orchid house, she admits the truth: she's scared of wanting something this much. He kisses her like the world is ending, and the orchids stage their greatest performance yet.Then her phone buzzes. Festival crisis. Maypole emergency. And she runs.Three days of professional distance later, she finds him in the rose garden at sunset and stops running. When she tells him she wants this—really wants it, no spreadsheets—the entire garden lights up.Literally. Bioluminescence. The roses are glowing.Six days until the festival. And the garden has never been happier.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

In honour of International Workers' Day on May 1st, we're listening to two songs about the plight of those who have to work on Christmas Day. First up is an epic song about an achingly mundane world. Specifically, Seattle in the 1990s: it's "Sometimes You Have to Work on Christmas (Sometimes)" by Harvey Danger. Then we earn some overtime with Modern Modem's retail-centric "Working on Christmas". The ranking music in this episode is "Flagpole Sitta" by Harvey Danger.
In this Hsien talks with Dr. Chetna Malhotra, a leading palliative care and health services researcher in Singapore. They explore the gap between what people say they want at the end of life and the care they actually receive, especially in hospital-heavy systems. Together, they unpack how culture, family, and religion shape decisions, and why advanced care planning should focus less on fixed choices and more on preparing families for real-time decisions. Dr. Malhotra also shares how digital tools and caregiver support innovations like the Care Buddy app are helping patients and families navigate serious illness.

Active citizenship isn't just a buzzword; it's a life path that can be cultivated from a young age.That's exactly what Ann Cleveland, a Waldorf educator, dives into with us. In our conversation she takes a deep look at how arts-infused education transforms kids into engaged citizens.Forget the boring lectures about democracy; here, kids are living it through music, movement, and storytelling. Ann shares how children practice collaboration and empathy every single day in the classroom, honing the skills they'll need to navigate the complex social fabric of the world around them.This isn't just enrichment; it's the core of their learning experience! Ann emphasizes how arts integrated education helps kids develop self-regulation and attention – essential tools for any democratic society. Anne paints a picture of the classroom as a vibrant community where every voice matters, and every action has purpose.As we riff on the importance of rhythm and repetition, we discover that it's not just about keeping kids entertained; it's about grounding them in their bodies and helping them learn to connect with others. Ann's insights on how the Waldorf approach fosters a sense of belonging and interdependence are not just fascinating; they're vital in today's world where the idea of community often feels fractured. So, grab your paintbrush or a musical instrument, and let's explore how the arts are more than just a creative outlet—they're a pathway to active, engaged citizenship!Notable MentionsPeopleAnne Cleveland: Waldorf educator, musician, and movement teacher interviewed in this episode about arts-infused education, sensory integration, and democratic practice.Rudolf Steiner: Austrian thinker and founder of anthroposophy whose educational ideas led to Waldorf schooling.Elsa Gotkins: Waldorf educator and mentor cited by Anne Cleveland for her approach to teaching students to listen closely and make non-judgmental observations in music.Bill Cleveland: Host of Art Is Change and director of the Center for the Study of Art & Community.Judy Munsen: Composer and sound designer for Art Is Change.Andre Nnebe: Text editor for Art Is Change.PlacesSanta Cruz Waldorf School: California Waldorf school cited by Anne Cleveland as her current teaching community.Association of Waldorf Schools of North America: North American membership organization for independent Waldorf schools and institutes; a reliable overview source for Waldorf education in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.Center for the Study of Art & Community: Producing organization behind Art Is Change.Events / PracticesWaldorf Education: Arts-integrated educational approach referenced throughout the episode, emphasizing developmental stages, imagination, embodiment, and community life.May Faire / school festivals at Santa Cruz Waldorf School: School-based festivals and seasonal rituals, including the Maypole tradition Anne discusses as part of rhythm, anticipation, and shared community practice.Santa Cruz Waldorf School curriculum: Official school description of its class-teacher model and holistic developmental curriculum, closely aligned with what Anne describes in the interview.Waldorf Class Plays: Annual whole-class theater productions discussed in the interview as a recurring exercise in collaboration, responsibility, and shared purpose.Seed Song: Anne Cleveland's improvised classroom music-and-movement exercise that helped a dysregulated group of children settle, imagine, and reconnect.PublicationsHelping Children on Their Way: Educational Support for the Classroom — Elizabeth Auer, editor: Collection of classroom support essays on helping children with varied learning and developmental needs.Games Children Play: How Games and Sport Help Children Develop — Kim Brooking-Payne: Guide to age-appropriate games and movement activities for children; identified in the transcript as a practical resource Anne uses.Free, Equal and Mutual: Rebalancing Society for the Common Good — Martin Large and Steve Briault, editors: Anthology on Steiner's threefold social ideas and their relevance to public life and the common good.A Practical Guide to Curative Education: The Ladder of the Seven Life Processes — Robyn M.

Guests discuss the challenges and triumphs of community arts, socially engaged art, and creative placemaking, offering insights into artist mentorship, building credibility, and communicating impact.Episodes delve into the realities of artist isolation, burnout, and funding for artists, while celebrating the role of artists in residence and creative leadership in shaping a more just and inclusive world. Whether you're an emerging or established artist for social justice, this podcast offers inspiration, practical advice, and a sense of solidarity in the journey toward art and social change.

Donna Thomson, longtime caregiver, advocate, and author, returns to share a very different story: her own diagnosis of high‑grade bladder cancer. In this episode, she talks about the shock of shifting from caregiver to patient, how she advocated for herself to get answers, and the anxiety of living with a high risk of recurrence. Donna describes how the 7 Keys workbook became her “cognitive lifeboat,” helping her and her husband clarify their priorities, plan for aging, and navigate conversations about fear, privacy, and support. She also shares how her yoga community, her caregiving work, and projects like the Caregiving Essentials course and The Courage to Care book continue to sustain her through treatment and beyond.

This month Andy and Alex review the nostalgia-fest that is the classic Pertwee tale The Daemons. Andy has prepared a devilishly difficult Daemons-themed quiz and some highly-relevant info on satanist Aleister Crowley, while Alex has Quatermass in mind and her time as a young Maypole-dancer at Alnwick Fair. The patriarchy rears its ugly head and the Brigadier apparently plays fast and loose with his knickers, but more importantly it is definitively established whether this story is pronounced Day-mons or Dee-mons! All this and the usual pop culture bites: Treasure Hunt with Anneka Rice, Topic and Boost chocolate bars, Meloids, and Lucky Ladders with Lennie Bennett. Now don't you go believing that Farage chap that he can give you whatever you need just because he doesn't have a pet gargoyle! Next Time: The Underwater Menace

Walpurgis Night is something most English-speaking listeners won't know about – but it's being celebrated at this precise moment. While others are currently celebrating “Halfway to Halloween” or “Half-o-ween” for short… in Germany, they're celebrating a second Halloween which they call Walpurgisnacht – or “Walpurgis Night.” Plus, later in the show I'll share a story that was intended specifically to be read on Walpurgis Night – it's called “The Black Bargain” from PJ Hodge!CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate and Only Accurate For the Commercial Version)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:37.995 = Happy Walpurgisnacht, Everyone00:34:34.458 = The Black Bargain (a Fictional Story To Be Told on Walpurgis Night)00:48:10.168 = Show CloseSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Happy Walpurgisnacht, Everyone!” by Todd at GothicHorrorStories.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/a8svp23c“The Black Bargain” by PJ Hodge, posted at FreakyFolkTales.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/j49bd4=====(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.
