This episode is presented by Create A Video –  Andrew Dunn is the publisher of Longleaf Politics and a contributing columnist to The Charlotte Observer. He joined me to discuss what he calls the "North Carolina criminal justice policy cycle" - where the state cracks down on crime, jails get overcrowded, and pressure builds to let more dangerous criminals out. We are in that final stage of the cycle right now.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerAll the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com  

Im Gespräch erläutert Frank Goldammer, warum er mit *Strandopfer* Dresden verlässt und an der Ostsee, auf Usedom, einen neuen Schauplatz wählt. Der Verlag habe ihn gefragt, ob er auch Krimis außerhalb Dresdens schreiben wolle. Die Ostsee sei für ihn naheliegend gewesen, weil er dort regelmäßig Urlaub mache und die Gegend gut kenne. Ein Schwerpunkt des Interviews ist die Hauptfigur Lena. Goldammer erklärt, dass weibliche Hauptfiguren für ihn nichts Neues seien. Markus Eggert spricht jedoch an, dass ihm Lena wegen ihrer Stereotype zunächst fremd blieb. Goldammer verweist darauf, dass Lena aus Mecklenburg stammt, mit Vorurteilen aufgewachsen ist und sich mit eigenen Prägungen und Traumata auseinandersetzen muss. Daraufhin geht das Gespräch auf deutsch-polnische Vorbehalte, Grenzräume und Kriminalität über. Goldammer berichtet von Recherchen bei der deutsch-polnischen Polizei und vom Thema Fahrzeugdiebstahl. Er betont, dass er mit Klischees arbeite, sie aber oft einen realen Kern hätten. Ein weiterer Themenblock ist die Zusammenarbeit und das Misstrauen zwischen Deutschen und Polen. Goldammer beschreibt unterschiedliche Umgangsformen, Hierarchien in der Polizei und bestehende historische Belastungen, auch durch den Zweiten Weltkrieg. Er erwähnt, dass eine feste länderübergreifende Polizeistruktur bisher nicht existiere. Auch die Figurenbeziehungen werden besprochen, besonders zwischen Lena und ihrem polnischen Kollegen Adam. Zwischen beiden gebe es Reibungen, aber auch Annäherung. Zudem spricht Goldammer über Kowalska als weitere Figur und darüber, dass Lena erst langsam Vertrauen aufbaut. Später geht es um Bernsteinsuche, touristische Orte und den Kontrast zwischen Touristen und Einheimischen. Goldammer erzählt, dass Bernstein für ihn eng zur Ostsee gehöre und er schließlich tatsächlich einen gefunden habe. Zum Schluss spricht das Gespräch über Alkoholabhängigkeit, schwierige Familienverhältnisse, Lesen als Gewinn und die Wirkung von Übersetzungen und Lesungen im Ausland. Goldammer sagt, er wolle nicht moralisieren, sondern Figuren mit Hintergrund und verständlichen Konflikten zeigen.

Über 20 Jahre führte die studierte Chemikerin und Theaterfrau aus Leidenschaft Bettina Kalisch die Kulturbörse Gnoien in Mecklenburg. Jetzt leitet sie dort noch eine generationenübergreifende Theatergruppe - mit Akteuren zwischen 5 und 87. Schreyl, Marco www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Im Gespräch

Der vorliegende Text analysiert Uwe Johnsons monumentales Romanwerk Jahrestage sowie dessen filmische Adaption durch Margarethe von Trotta. Im Zentrum steht die Protagonistin Gesine Cresspahl, die im New York der späten 1960er Jahre lebt und ihrer Tochter die komplexe Familiengeschichte im mecklenburgischen Jerichow erzählt. Der Autor verdeutlicht, wie Johnson die New York Times als ethisches Korrektiv nutzt, um private Erinnerungen mit der Weltgeschichte des Vietnamkriegs zu verweben. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt auf der moralischen Integrität der Figuren und der Unmöglichkeit, die deutsche Vergangenheit von der Gegenwart zu trennen. Die filmische Umsetzung wird als mutiger Versuch gewürdigt, Johnsons vielschichtige Erzählstruktur in ein visuelles Medium zu übertragen. Letztlich beschreiben die Quellen den Roman als einen Akt der literarischen Spurensicherung, der gegen das Vergessen und die moralische Anpassung anschreibt.In seinem Romanwerk Jahrestage setzt Uwe Johnson die New York Times nicht bloß als Informationsquelle, sondern als ein zentrales strukturelles und ethisches Erzählmittel ein. Die Zeitung fungiert dabei auf verschiedenen Ebenen:Strukturelles Gerüst: Der Roman umfasst exakt ein Jahr, vom 21. August 1967 bis zum 20. August 1968. Dabei ist jedem Kapitel ein Tag zugeordnet, der wiederum durch eine entsprechende Schlagzeile der New York Times eingeleitet oder begleitet wird.Abkehr vom „Gottestrick“: Für Johnson war die Einarbeitung der Zeitung eine ethische Haltung. Er verweigerte damit den traditionellen „Gottestrick“ des Erzählers – also die Illusion, man könne außerhalb der Geschichte stehen, während man sie beschreibt. Die Zeitung diente ihm als Korrektiv und Anker, als täglicher Beweis dafür, dass die Welt unabhängig von der Wahrnehmung der Protagonistin Gesine Cresspahl weiter existiert.Atmosphärisches Klima statt Kulisse: Im Gegensatz zu Dos Passos, der Zeitungsnachrichten oft als ironische Gegenstimme nutzte, lässt Johnson die Schlagzeilen wie das „Wetter in ein Zimmer“ treten. Die Nachrichten, insbesondere über den Vietnamkrieg, sind keine bloße Kulisse, sondern das „Klima“, in dem sich die Figuren bewegen und das ihr Denken und Fragen (etwa das der Tochter Marie) maßgeblich beeinflusst.Verbindung von Privatem und Öffentlichem: Die Zeitung ermöglicht es Johnson, die große Weltgeschichte mit der privaten Chronik der Cresspahls zu überlagern. Während Gesine in New York die aktuellen Nachrichten über Vietnam oder die Unruhen liest, erinnert sie sich an die Geschichte ihrer Familie in Mecklenburg. Das Jahr endet schließlich mit der Nachricht vom Einmarsch sowjetischer Panzer in Prag am 20. August 1968, wodurch sich der Kreis der Geschichte schließt.Sprachkritik: Johnson nutzt die Zeitung auch, um die „Sprache der Macht“ zu untersuchen. Durch sein Aufwachsen in der DDR sensibilisiert für staatlich fabrizierte Wirklichkeiten, erkennt er in der offiziellen Berichterstattung der Times (etwa zu Verlustzahlen im Krieg) Momente, in denen die offizielle Rede und die gelebte Wirklichkeit auseinanderfallen.Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass die New York Times für Johnson ein Instrument war, um die Unmöglichkeit eines einzigen, verlässlichen Berichts zu untermauern und die Gleichzeitigkeit von individueller Erfahrung und globaler Historie darzustellen.Published by Author Peter H BloeckerMore via my Wordpress Blogs on Higher Education and Life Skills.Business German Podcast

Steve Gabriel joins us to unpack one of the most consequential myths shaping how we grow food in America: the separation between forest and field.As a co-steward of Wellspring Forest Farm in Mecklenburg, New York, author of Silvopasture, and researcher at the Cornell Small Farms Program, Steve has been listening. Through a SARE-funded project called Farming with Trees, he's been in conversation with over 120 farmers, from Bronx-raised beginners to multi-generational stewards, exploring not just how to plant trees, but why it matters and what gets in the way.What he's found is that the barriers to agroforestry aren't just technical. They're cultural, historical, and deeply personal, rooted in a Eurocentric agricultural paradigm that told farmers to clear the land and never look back.In this episode, we dive into: How personal relationships with trees in childhood shape a farmer's vision for the land The paradigm shift required to move from stark field or stark forest toward something in between How indigenous land stewardship modeled a working tree landscape long before "agroforestry" was a word What livestock farmers, vegetable growers, and flower farmers each need from trees and why those needs are so different Why starting with willow and poplar might matter more than starting with chestnuts and apples The role of community, craft traditions, and living fences in rebuilding our relationship with treesMore about Steve:Steve Gabriel is an ecologist, farmer, and educator from the Finger Lakes Region of New York. Throughout his career spanning 20 years, Gabriel has taught thousands of farmers and land stewards about land planning, mushroom growing, and agroforestry. His experience working in academic research and extension, as a teacher and lecturer, and managing several working farm landscapes has built a unique balance of knowledge and practice which he brings to his work.With his family, Gabriel co-stewards Wellspring Forest Farm, which is an agroforestry demonstration farm that produces mushrooms, nursery trees, pastured lamb, maple syrup, and elderberry in Mecklenburg, New York. He also collaborates with diverse individuals and organizations through the Farming with Trees Collective.Gabriel previously served for 12 years as Extension Specialist for the Cornell Small Farm Program, focused on research and education on agroforestry and mushroom production. Steve co-authored Farming the Woods with Ken Mudge (2014) and is the author of Silvopasture (2019).Agrarian Futures is produced by Alexandre Miller, who also wrote our theme song.

Tune in here to this ​Wednesday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen! Breaking Brett Jensen analyzes the results from the primary elections in several counties across North Carolina. The discussion begins with the defeat of NC Rep. Carla Cunningham by Rodney Sadler. Sadler had the endorsement of Gov. Josh Stein, which Jensen attributes to Cunningham’s decision to cross party lines on a key vote. Jensen then shifts to the Mecklenburg County sheriff’s race, which he characterizes as more interesting. Incumbent Sheriff Garry McFadden won the race with roughly 34% of the vote, defeating Ricky Robbins by approximately 2,600 to 2,800 votes. He then breaks down the Gaston County sheriff’s race, the Cabarrus County state senate race, as well as Mecklenburg commissioner Vilma Leake’s political fallout. Listen here for all of this and more on Breaking With Brett Jensen.

Mecklenburg voters will decide on a referendum to levy a 1-cent sales tax to fund Charlotte's transit plan. That tax would generate nearly $20 billion over 30 years for various transit projects. Proponents say the time is now to make this critical decision. Others urge a no vote because of who will be hurt by rising taxes. We look at both sides.

In this episode, we hear from Shannon Binns of Sustain Charlotte, who makes the case for a “YES” vote on the proposed transportation sales tax referendum. Binns argues that investing in transit, roads, sidewalks and bike lanes is essential to keep up with the region's explosive growth, improve safety, reduce congestion and make Charlotte more competitive for the future.In a conversation with Charlotte Ledger editor Tony Mecia, Binns explains why he believes the plan offers a balanced approach — funding roads and safety improvements, expanding bus and rail service, and creating cleaner, healthier communities. He urges voters to seize this rare opportunity to build a transportation system that serves everyone.Binns also wrote a column expressing his ideas in a recent edition of Transit Time, a weekly newsletter on transit and transportation produced by The Charlotte Ledger and WFAE.THE OTHER SIDE: This episode and accompanying column are part of a two-part series exploring the arguments for and against Mecklenburg's transportation referendum, which is on the Nov. 4 ballot. Be sure to check out the perspecive of the "VOTE NO" side, in a conversation and column by Robert Dawkins of Action NC.Together, these different perspectives provide a balanced look at both sides of the transportation sales tax debate.The Charlotte Ledger Podcast is produced by Lindsey Banks.

In this episode, we talk with Robert Dawkins of Action NC, who explains why he believes raising Mecklenburg's sales tax to pay for transit and transportation is unfair and misguided. Dawkins advocates for a "NO" vote on November's referendum, arguing that the plan puts too heavy a burden on low- and middle-income families, lacks accountability and repeats a pattern of broken promises from previous city transportation initiatives.In a conversation with Charlotte Ledger editor Tony Mecia, Dawkins shares stories from his work with displaced residents, outlines concerns about transparency and oversight and questions whether the city's mobility plan truly serves those who rely on public transportation the most. He urges voters to take a closer look at who benefits—and who bears the costs—of the proposed tax.Dawkins also wrote a column expressing his ideas in a recent edition of Transit Time, a weekly newsletter on transit and transportation produced by The Charlotte Ledger and WFAE.THE OTHER SIDE: This episode and accompanying column are part of a two-part series exploring the arguments for and against Mecklenburg's transportation referendum, which is on the Nov. 4 ballot.

Considered the NFL's most versatile player, Karl played all seven defensive front positions. Bronco coaches wanted him at the point of attack and would move him throughout the game.

In 2001, Karl was inducted into the Denver Broncos Ring of Fame and the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame. Make sure you follow Karl on Instagram at @karlmecklenburg.
