After the Second World War, in what was then East Germany, or the German Democratic Republic (GDR), tens of thousands of women and girls were forcibly detained and abused in sexual health clinics. In 1977, at the age of 15, Sabine was at a house party in Leipzig when police came for her. She was taken to a so-called ‘Tripperburgen' which translates to ‘gonorrhoea castle'. After 31 days she was told to leave. Research shows at least 10 of these wards existed in the GDR and 70% of the women had not been diagnosed with a sexually transmitted disease. Sabine tells Megan Jones about what happened to her, including being subjected to her first ever gynaecological exam. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Next in media spoke with Megan Jones, Chief Digital Officer at Digitas, about what she tells clients about a possible Google break up, and the never ending cookies saga. Jones also talked about why it's so hard to bake creators into traditional media planning, and what's really going on with sustainability.Takeaways:• Post-Cookie Environment: Despite long discussions around a "post-cookie world," urgency has waned due to delays. • Challenges in Connected TV: The fragmented CTV landscape lacks unified audience targeting and measurement standards. • TikTok's Growing Influence: As TikTok remains a cultural hub, Digitas advises clients to use it actively and authentically. • Creator Economy and Social Strategy: Digitas leverages creators through its SWOT (Share worthy and Trending) program, which identifies trends and pairs creators with brands to produce authentic, real-time content, with a focus on diversity and cultural relevance.• Integrating Media and CRM: There's a significant, underutilized potential in linking CRM with media for seamless customer engagement.• Sustainability in Digital Advertising: Though it's not a top priority for clients, sustainability is expected to become essential within the next five years, similar to brand safety.

Donald Macleod and Leah Broad survey the life and work of British composer Dorothy HowellThis week Donald Macleod is joined by the award-winning author Leah Broad to explore the story of the British composer Dorothy Howell, who shot to fame aged 21 after the triumphant premiere of her orchestral work ‘Lamia' at the Proms. By the mid-1920s she was regarded as one of the leading women composers of the day, performing in prestigious venues across the UK and regularly appearing on radio programmes in the earliest days of broadcasting. But she faced challenges from the 1930s onwards that left her disillusioned, and by the end of her life she wanted to destroy all but a handful of her works. Luckily family intervened, but even so Howell's music almost disappeared from view - until recently.Music Featured: Spindrift Humoresque for Orchestra Sonata for violin and piano (1st mvt) Two Frogs Five Studies for piano Boat Song for piano Lamia Five Studies Rosalind The Little Round House, The Bears Koong Shee Phantasy for violin and piano The Tortoiseshell Cat Pot Pourri My White Lady The Moorings If you will come to Corte Piano Concerto in D minor Mazurka Two Pieces for Muted Strings Puppydog's Tales Prelude 1 in F minor Prelude 2 in C Prelude 3 in A flat Recuerdos Preciosos No 1 and 2 The Rock Overture Sonata for violin and piano (2nd & 3rd mvts) To Sine in Winter Sonata for piano Three Divertissements Presented by Donald Macleod Produced by Megan Jones for BBC Audio Wales & WestFor full track listings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for Dorothy Howell (1898-1982) https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0023f35 And you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we've featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z

The Dodgers claim Yamamoto and Patti claims Dodgers pitching for FBBL, just that fast. Just when we thought Verdugo could not sink any lower, he goes after his former manager for holding him accountable for his actions, and forces us to agree, a little, with Papelbon. This week's boyfriends represent LAA and NYM. Pottymouth selects LAA catcher Logan O'Hoppe, not just because it is fun to say his name, but it helps. Patti goes for SS Zach Neto, a little for the leg kick and a lot for his mom. Over at the Mets, it's another Zack - this time “great teammate” Zack Short , while Patti chooses Brett Baty and his “big Texas Boy power.” The Cubs promote Megan Jones to VP of Baseball Strategy, their first woman VP in baseball ops. Wander Franco rakes in a bonus while under investigation, and the Rules committee, stacked with owners, pushes through some changes that no players voted for. It's a done deal, the Os stay at OPACY for another 30 years. Patti has a swaggy little Christmas while Pottymouth waves to Fenway and hangs with Dad.We say “shipping Shohei and Santa,” “Circumventing circumvention, “ and “back to back Zach to Zack.'
