The last time I went out this far out on a limb in terms of topic on this podcast was my conversation with gardener Andi Strachan. But there's something about the interactions between human cultures and the natural environment that I find fascinating, and there's also a thread related not just to vulnerabilities of agrobiodiversity and food sovereignty, but also how our individual lives are entwined with the food that sustains, nourishes, and can hurt us and our environment. Carolina Modena is Director of the Biodiversity Office at Slow Food, which is an organization headquartered in Bra, Italy representing a global movement of local groups and activists devoted to ensuring everyone has access to good, clean, and fair food. From a background in law and gastronomic sciences, she is committed to protecting food culture against the twin forces of globalization and standardization. You can learn more about the mission and activities of the Slow Food organization and ways to get involved on their website at slowfood.com and on instagram @slowfood_international. And if you're interested in learning more about the foods unique to your own area, be sure to check out their Ark of Taste project (https://www.slowfood.com/biodiversity-programs/ark-of-taste/). I have discovered that here in Québec, we raise Chantecler chickens, which are a composite breed of Dark Cornish, White Leghorn, Rhode Island Red, White Wyandotte, Columbian Wyandotte, and White Plymouth Rock chickens.

Ho avuto l'onore di affrontare questo tema davanti agli studenti dell'Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia, grazie all'invito della Prof.ssa Silvia Ferrari e del Prof. Gian Maria Galeazzi. Ora voglio condividerlo anche con voi.In questo episodio speciale di “La Psichiatria in Diretta” parliamo di un tema urgente e spesso sottovalutato: come social media e intelligenza artificiale stanno cambiando – profondamente e silenziosamente – la mente umana.Viviamo in un mondo dove il digitale non è più un contesto esterno, ma una dimensione interna, psicologica, affettiva, relazionale. E allora la domanda diventa inevitabile: noi psichiatri, siamo pronti? Siamo pronti a capire e intercettare i nuovi linguaggi, le nuove dipendenze, le nuove identità e i nuovi traumi che nascono dentro a TikTok, dentro a ChatGPT, dentro al feed infinito?In questo video ti porto dentro a una riflessione urgente e, forse, un po' scomoda: per restare davvero bravi nel nostro lavoro, non possiamo ignorare le grandi trasformazioni digitali in atto. Non basta “capire” l'intelligenza artificiale, serve capire cosa fa alla mente. Non basta giudicare i social, serve ascoltare cosa ci raccontano del nostro desiderio di connessione.Questo non è un discorso solo tecnico. È un discorso clinico, relazionale, umano.Perché, se non stiamo attenti, rischiamo di parlare con la mente di ieri ai pazienti di domani.INDICE DEL VIDEO:00:00:00 Introduzione del Prof. Gian Maria Galeazzi00:04:32 Introduzione della Prof.ssa Silvia Ferrari00:06:55 Intervento del Dott.

L'ombelico di un mondo

Alla fine della Seconda guerra mondiale, l'Europa fu attraversata da un'ondata di violenze e omicidi illegali. L'intensità e le modalità variarono da paese a paese, ma ovunque lasciarono un segno profondo. In Italia si contarono circa 8.000 vittime, anche se una stima precisa è difficile da fare. Nelle prime settimane dopo la Liberazione regnava l'incertezza: il PCI non aveva ancora una linea chiara su come affrontare le tante esecuzioni sommarie che si moltiplicavano. Ma non furono solo i comunisti a farsi giustizia da soli: anche i socialisti e i partigiani di Giustizia e Libertà furono coinvolti in queste dinamiche. L'amnistia voluta dal ministro della Giustizia, Palmiro Togliatti, coprì molti reati politici commessi fino al 31 luglio 1945, e segnò un tentativo di pacificazione nazionale e di mettere fine alle vendette e agli episodi di violenza illegale. Tuttavia, il clima restò teso a lungo. Dopo l'attentato a Togliatti del 14 luglio 1948, iniziò una repressione sistematica contro chi aveva fatto parte della Resistenza: presero il via i grandi processi contro i partigiani e si aprì una lunga stagione di epurazioni nelle fabbriche e arresti dei militanti comunisti con un tentativo di mettere fuori legge il PCI. Quando si parla degli omicidi avvenuti in Italia dopo il 25 aprile 1945, si usa spesso – per convenzione – l'espressione “Triangolo della morte” o “Triangolo rosso” per indicare quanto accadde nelle province di Reggio Emilia, Modena e Bologna. Non perché tutto si sia limitato a quelle zone, ma perché è lì che si concentrarono i casi più controversi e meglio documentati. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

È iniziato in Canada il vertice G7, con focus su crisi geopolitiche (Israele-Iran, Ucraina, Gaza). Il premier canadese Carney punta su sicurezza, catene di approvvigionamento e lavoro. Meloni, Macron, Merz, Starmer e Carney hanno tenuto un colloquio informale in vista di una posizione europea unitaria. Il Giappone e la Corea del Sud interverranno sui dazi Usa. Intanto, la Commissione Ue valuta un accordo con Washington per fissare i dazi reciproci al 10%, limitando l'impatto su settori chiave. Trump non ha ancora confermato l'intesa, ma von der Leyen e il presidente Usa stanno trattando. Intervengono Nicola Filippone, Radiocor e Marco Buti, professore all'Istituto Universitario Europeo, è stato Direttore Generale per gli Affari Economici e Finanziari della Commissione Europea dal 2008 al 2019.Caritas: “Sempre più assistiti in Italia. E il carrello della spesa è sempre più costoso”. Secondo Caritas e ISTAT, la povertà in Italia cresce anche tra i lavoratori. Nel 2024, oltre 277mila persone assistite, con un +62,6% rispetto a dieci anni fa. Il fenomeno dei “working poor” è sempre più diffuso, anche al Nord. Il 23,1% degli italiani è a rischio povertà o esclusione sociale. Sebbene l'inflazione generale rallenti, i beni essenziali continuano a rincarare: +2,7% annuo per alimentari e prodotti per la casa e la persona. Commentiamo questi dati con Massimo Baldini, docente di Scienza delle Finanze presso l'Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia.Israele-Iran, con la guerra la benzina torna sopra quota 1,7 euro a litro. La guerra tra Israele e Iran fa schizzare i prezzi del petrolio e dei carburanti. Il Brent è salito del 10%, con la benzina self sopra 1,7 euro/litro e il diesel sopra 1,6. Gli aumenti riflettono i timori di blocchi all'offerta iraniana o escalation militare. L'AIE dispone di scorte d'emergenza, ma gli investitori temono nuove tensioni. Prezzi alla pompa in rialzo, con rincari anche da Eni, IP e Q8. Facciamo il punto con Gabriele Masini, direttore di Staffetta Quotidiana - Quotidiano delle fonti di energia.Il cda di Mediobanca rinvia l'assemblea per l'Ops su Banca Generali. Mediobanca ha rinviato l'assemblea sull'Ops su Banca Generali al 25 settembre. Il rinvio è motivato dalla mancanza di una posizione ufficiale di Generali sull'offerta. Alcuni soci, tra cui Delfin e il gruppo Caltagirone, avevano espresso dubbi o chiesto chiarimenti. Il quorum rischiava di non essere raggiunto. L'offerta resta formalmente valida, ma il suo futuro è legato anche alla possibile Opa di Mps su Mediobanca, attesa a breve. Il commento è di Antonella Olivieri, Il Sole 24 Ore.

Ein Paradies für Essen, Schönheit und Lebensart ist diese Region im Norden Italiens, die wundervoll nachhaltig zu bereisen ist. Schon Bologna explodiert fast vor hervorragenden Restaurants, Eisdielen, Feinkostläden und ist super ans Zug-Netz angebunden - eine grüne, junge, lebendige, nachhaltig-orientierte Stadt. Nur einen kurzen Schienen-Trip weiter stehen wir an der Adria-Küste in den nächsten Traumstädten. Wie Rimini samt seiner hinreißen Strandpromenade. Wieder im Inland schlemmen wir uns durch das Käse- und Schinken-Schlaraffenland Parma. Und all das ist nur der Anfang für eine extrem vielseitige, leicht zu erschließende Region. „Italien" bedeutet nicht nur die großen Namen wie „Rom“ oder „Venedig“ - es sind die etwas kleineren Städte und versteckten Ecken der Emilia Romagna, in der wir der Seele dieses Landes mindestens genau so nah kommen.Bei „Bella Italia“ reisen Deutschlands bekannteste Urlaubs-Expertin Tamina Kallert (u. a. „WDR Wunderschön“) sowie Jochen Schliemann und Michael Dietz von „Reisen Reisen - der Podcast“ quer durch das Traum-Urlaubsland Italien.Diese Folge entstand mit freundlicher Unterstützung der ÖBB und Deutsche Bahn:https://www.bahn.de/angebot/urlaub/bahnreisen/summerrail/italien/emilia-romagnaBella Italia LIVE AUF DER BÜHNE - mit Tamina, Jochen, Michi und: Überraschungen!17.11. - Tanzbrunnen in Köln – Tickets überall und hier.

Vittorio Gallese, Stefano Moriggi e Pier Cesare Rivoltella sono gli autori di “Oltre la tecnofobia. Il digitale dalle neuroscienze all'educazione” pubblicato da Raffaello Cortina Editore. Vittorio Gallese è neuroscienziato, professore ordinario di Psicobiologia all'Università degli Studi di Parma. Stefano Moriggi è professore associato di Cittadinanza digitale e di Società e contesti educativi digitali presso l'Università degli Studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia. Pier Cesare Rivoltella è professore ordinario di Didattica e tecnologie dell'educazione presso l'Università di Bologna. Questo libro ha l'obiettivo di esplorare il ruolo delle tecnologie digitali con uno sguardo critico ma aperto, evitando sia la tecnofilia ingenua sia la tecnofobia sterile. Non si tratta di condannare il digitale, o di tesserne l'elogio incondizionato, ma di comprendere in che modo la nostra mente e il nostro corpo interagiscano con il nuovo ecosistema tecnologico che abbiamo prodotto. Il digitale sta cambiando radicalmente il nostro modo di vivere, pensare e interagire, ma non siamo condannati a subirne gli effetti passivamente. Comprendere come funzionano gli strumenti digitali, come contribuiscono a plasmare il nostro pensiero e come possiamo usarli a nostro vantaggio è essenziale per affrontare il futuro con maggiore consapevolezza.

Not all balsamic vinegar is created equal—and most people don't realize there are two protected types. In this episode, we focus on Aceto Balsamico di Modena IGP (Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI)—the more widely available, yet often misunderstood version. You'll learn how it's made, what the PGI seal really means, and how to spot authentic bottles from the Italian sounding ones. We'll also explore the best ways to use it and why it deserves more respect than a simple salad dressing.

Matteo Al Kalak"Quel luogo chiamato inferno"Memoria Festival, Mirandolahttps://memoriafestival.it/Venerdì 6 giugno 2025, ore 21:00Quel luogo chiamato infernoCon Antonino Raspanti e Matteo Al KalakDa realtà teologica, l'inferno si è saputo imporre nella visione collettiva come luogo concreto, situato fisicamente nel mondo, influenzando i comportamenti di generazioni per quasi due millenni. Il vescovo di Acireale Antonino Raspanti e lo storico Matteo Al Kalak compiono un viaggio nella storia dell'inferno all'interno della dottrina cristiana, tra cambiamenti filosofici, teologici e culturali. Matteo Al Kalak"Fuoco e fiamme"Einaudi Editorewww.einaudi.itCon questo libro Matteo Al Kalak ripercorre la concezione dell'inferno come luogo fisico, nella sua dimensione spaziale, seguendo una narrazione che dura da millenni e si è fissata nelle strutture mentali ed emotive degli uomini. La prospettiva adottata è quella della storia culturale, che cerca di comporre fra loro ambiti e linguaggi diversi per restituire un quadro complesso, vario e articolato. Tale approccio, certamente fecondo, impone scelte di cui è necessario dare conto per orientarsi in una materia scivolosa. Il principale nodo da sciogliere è stato l'atteggiamento da assumere di fronte a un elemento che, nella tradizione presa a riferimento (il cristianesimo), è strutturalmente intrecciato al discorso sul regno oscuro: il male e la sua personificazione. È possibile distinguere l'analisi del luogo della dannazione dall'entità (individuale o fattuale) che la provoca? Nelle pagine del libro si è tentato di tenere separati, per quanto possibile, questi due elementi, isolando la trattazione sull'inferno dalla “biografia” del suo signore (secondo vari racconti, un angelo ribellatosi al suo creatore). Sia perché all'essere che incarna il male sono stati dedicati infiniti studi; sia perché distinguere peccato e punizione, crimine e condanna, consente di mettere l'accento su aspetti differenti che, nel tempo, ebbero vite autonome seppure legate.Matteo Al Kalak insegna Storia moderna all'Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia. Si occupa di storia religiosa, in un'ottica culturale e istituzionale, con particolare riguardo al dissenso, ai meccanismi di repressione e al riformismo. Tra le sue pubblicazioni ricordiamo: L'eresia dei fratelli. Una comunità eterodossa nella Modena del Cinquecento (Edizioni di Storia e Letteratura 2011), Un'altra fede. Le Case dei catecumeni nei territori estensi, 1583-1938 (con Ilaria Pavan, Olschki 2013) e Il riformatore dimenticato. Egidio Foscarari tra Inquisizione, concilio e governo pastorale, 1512-1564 (il Mulino 2016). Partecipa all'Edizione Nazionale del carteggio di L. A. Muratori. Le sue opere più recenti sono Mangiare Dio. Una storia dell'eucarestia (2021) e Fuoco e fiamme. Storia e geografia dell'inferno (2024), entrambe pubblicate da Einaudi.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Il rapporto annuale dell'Istat conferma che tra il 2019 e il 2024 le retribuzioni contrattuali hanno perso il 10,5% del potere d'acquisto, a causa dell'impennata inflazionistica innescata dalla crisi energetica del 2021-2022. Il reddito medio da lavoro per occupato nel 2024 risulta inferiore a quello del 2004, ma il reddito familiare equivalente tiene grazie a famiglie più piccole, maggiore partecipazione al lavoro e diffusione della proprietà immobiliare. Quasi un quarto della popolazione è a rischio povertà o esclusione sociale (23,1%), con picchi al Sud (39,8%). Intanto, secondo la Commissione UE, l'Italia ha raggiunto la Francia nel Pil pro capite a parità di potere d'acquisto e dimezzato il gap con la Germania, anche se resta sotto i livelli pre-crisi debito. Ne parliamo con: Massimo Baldini, docente di Scienza delle Finanze presso l'Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia.Fatturato manifatturiero 2025 stabile a prezzi costanti, in modesta crescita a prezzi correntiIl Centro Studi di Intesa Sanpaolo, con Prometeia, prevede per l'industria manifatturiera italiana un fatturato 2025 di 1.143 miliardi di euro: stabile a prezzi costanti, in crescita dell'1,8% a prezzi correnti. Tra i settori più dinamici: farmaceutico (+2,4%), meccanica (+1,7%) e largo consumo (+1,2%). Fondamentale sarà la ripresa della domanda europea, trainata dal rallentamento dell'inflazione e dalla ripartenza tedesca. Dal 2026 al 2029 la crescita media attesa è dell'1% annuo, spinta da export, Pnrr e investimenti in digitalizzazione e sostenibilità. Le esportazioni resteranno il principale motore, con un saldo commerciale atteso di 1.324 miliardi al 2029. Sul fronte interno, la ripresa del potere d'acquisto e gli incentivi di Transizione 5.0 sosterranno consumi e investimenti.

Though it lacks large cities, Umbria more than makes up for it with breathtaking natural beauty, medieval towns, and a rich culinary tradition.One of Umbria's most impressive sights is the Cascata delle Marmore (Marmore Falls)—the second tallest waterfall in Europe. Nature lovers and photographers alike will be amazed by its dramatic 165-meter drop. The region is also home to Assisi, the birthplace of St. Francis, one of Italy's most revered saints, and a major pilgrimage destination.Food lovers will delight in Umbria's hearty, earthy cuisine, featuring lentils, mushroom-based dishes, cured meats, and the prized black truffle (Tartufo Nero di Norcia). Pair these specialties with a glass of Sagrantino di Montefalco, a robust red wine unique to the region.Umbria's culinary excellence is further reflected in its four Michelin-starred restaurants: Casa Vissani, Vespasia, Ada, and Elementi. Each holds one Michelin star, offering refined takes on the region's rustic flavors.Tourissimo Tip–Norcia is definitely one of Italy's culinary gems: https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/norcia-one-of-italys-culinary-gemsMarcheLocated in central Italy on the Adriatic side, Marche is a beautiful region with a population of 1 million people, known for its charming towns, rich history, and welcoming, hardworking culture.

The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing.

Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound. Must-see sites include the Nora Archaeological Park, Bastione di Saint Remy, Parco Archeologico Naturalistico di Santa Cristina, and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Cagliari. For an unforgettable natural wonder, venture into the Frecce delle grotte srl and Neptune's Grotto, stunning sea caves accessible by boat or stairs carved into cliffs.Sardinia is also home to a unique ancient civilization. Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.

Francesco Zarzana"Buk Festival"Festival della piccola e media editoriawww.bukfestival.itModena capitale della piccola e media  editoria italiana con la 18^ edizione di BUK Festival in programma sabato 3 e domenica 4 maggio nel cuore della città, il Chiostro di San Paolo che ospiterà, insieme a una vasta rappresentanza di editori, il cartellone di incontri con tante anteprime editoriali, allestito dal direttore artistico Francesco Zarzana per la cura organizzativa di Sara Caselli. Promosso da ProgettArte che proprio in questa edizione festeggia i suoi primi 25 anni, BUK Festival torna con una traccia tematica, Le trame e la vita,  che nell'edizione della maggiore età riscopre la letteratura di genere con un cartellone di percorsi gialli, storici e di impegno civile - libri inediti, nuovissimi o recenti di case editrici piccole e medie di tutta Italia.E con tante novità, prima fra tutte, nella Giornata mondiale del Libro mercoledì 23 aprile alle 21 al Teatro Storchi, la consegna del Premio Speciale BUK 2025 alla scrittrice torinese Deborah Gambetta, autrice di Incompletezza(Ponte alle Grazie), proprio ieri entrata nella dozzina finalista del Premio Strega 2025 per quest'opera. Il riconoscimento, recitano le motivazioni, viene conferito «per aver indagato attraverso la scrittura narrativa, le leggi matematiche e, così facendo, quelle della vita, alimentando di passione l'una e l'altra ricerca e intuendo le sinergie “carsiche” fra due “culture” circoscritte da confini puramente convenzionali». Spiega il direttore artistico di BUK Festival Francesco Zarzana che «il riconoscimento si identifica con il festival e nelle ultime edizioni è stato conferito a firme della narrativa contemporanea come Rosella Postorino nel 2024, Maurizio De Giovanni nel 2023 e Donatella Di Pietrantonio nel 2022, in precedenza a Paolo Mieli, Federica Manzon, Barbara Schiavulli, Emma D'Aquino, Barbara Baraldi e a pordenonelegge quale miglior festival letterario italiano». Mercoledì 23 aprile sarà anche la grande serata di Anteprima di BUK 2025: al Teatro Storchi infatti andrà in scena Gli occhi di Omero (Les yeux d'Homère), protagonista la nota attrice francese Fanny Gilles diretta dal regista Francesco Zarzana: prodotto da ProgettArte, lo spettacolo riprende la disputa accademica secondo la quale Omero sarebbe in realtà stato la prima poetessa greca: avrebbe conosciuto un anziano cieco ascoltando da lui le storie di Nausicaa, Circe, Calypso, la Dea Atena, le Sirene, Scilla, Euriclea, Penelope e così alimentando una prospettiva tutta femminile all'impianto generale dell'Iliade e dell'Odissea. Fra le novità di BUK Festival 2025, domenica 4 maggio alle 10, anche la Biblioteca Umana: evento aperto alla partecipazione del pubblico, dove i “veri” libri da leggere saranno le persone, con le loro esperienze di vita. «BUK Festival – osserva l'Assessore alla Cultura del Comune di Modena, Andrea Bortolamasi – è un appuntamento importante per il tessuto culturale della nostra città, perché promuove la lettura e l'attività delle piccole e medie realtà editoriali. E l'anteprima del 23 aprile, nella Giornata Mondiale del Libro, o un'ulteriore opportunità per avvicinarsi al moffriràndo dei libri in modo fresco e coinvolgente».  A BUK Festival spicca il percorso delle anteprime e novità 2025 in chiave giallo-noir:  come per il thriller distopico del divulgatore scientifico Andrea Segrè, Gelo profondo. La nuova era glaciale, da poco uscito per Minerva, e le pubblicazioni inedite firmate da ProgettArte, in uscita il 3 maggio, in occasione di BUK 2025: Il Fermo Posta di Robìne, di Pasquale Biscari, un romanzo sospeso tra introspezione e mistero, e una storia “gialla” attinta dalle cronache anni Novanta: I Diavoli della Bassa di Federico Mazzoli sulle presunte messe sataniche nella Bassa modenese. Anteprima assoluta a BUK per Giraldi editore con il giallo-fantasy dello scrittore Pierangelo Soldati, Robin Barlow. La morte corre sulla tela del ragno, e con Il lupo sotto la pelle (vol. 1 e 2) di Graziano Lonardi, una saga thriller venata di horror pubblicata dall'editore De Tomi. Fra le anteprime assolute di BUK Festival anche quelle legate al tema del viaggio, reale o metaforico: domenica 4 maggio, alle 16 nello Spazio Portici, per i giovani lettori si presenta il delicatissimo albo illustrato di Mila Lodi, Viva la vita, e il cooperatore sociale e scrittore Paolo Menzani firma una guida speciale, La Via degli Dei, sullo storico cammino tra Bologna e Firenze, una “guida marsupio” arricchita da contenuti in realtà aumentata, queste sono pensate per accompagnare i viaggiatori passo dopo passo. Un progetto inclusivo, curato da edita Officine Gutenberg.

Its capital, the enchanting floating city of Venice, is world-famous for its canals, gondolas, labyrinthine streets, and undeniable romance.Each of Venice's islands offers something special: admire the colorful houses of Burano, renowned for its lace-making traditions; visit Murano, celebrated for its centuries-old glassblowing artistry; and soak up the peaceful atmosphere of Torcello.

Mussolini e Hitler si incontrano per la prima volta in una piazza San Marco gremita di camicie nere. Tra la folla, anche l'ex commissario di polizia Siegfried Sauer e il suo compare Mutti, che hanno raggiunto la città lagunare per unirsi alla resistenza antifascista. La speranza è di creare un incidente che sventi il pericolo di un'alleanza tra Italia e Germania.Sauer e Mutti incappano però in un mistero di ben altra portata: nella notte, in gran segreto, Mussolini si inoltra in motoscafo nella laguna. I due riescono a seguirlo fino al largo di San Clemente, dove lo vedono attraccare a un pontile buio e poi entrare, accolto da un uomo in camice bianco, nell'edificio principale dell'isola. Un'ora più tardi, il Duce torna al motoscafo e riattraversa la laguna per rientrare ai suoi alloggi, visibilmente scosso.Sauer e Mutti decidono di indagare e scoprono che sull'isola c'è un manicomio femminile, e che lì è ospitata una paziente misteriosa di nome Ida Dalser. La sua storia ha dell'incredibile: la donna, infatti, sostiene di essere nientemeno che la prima e unica legittima moglie di Benito Mussolini…Chi è veramente Ida Dalser? Una folle? Una bugiarda? O una vittima in possesso di informazioni che metterebbero a rischio il Regime?Sauer e Mutti si renderanno ben presto conto che dietro Ida Dalser e le sue accuse inaudite c'è molto, molto di più. C'è l'inimmaginabile.Fabiano Massimi è nato a Modena nel 1977. Laureato in Filosofia tra Bologna e Manchester, dopo aver lavorato come traduttore e consulente per alcune fra le maggiori case editrici italiane, oggi insegna scrittura creativa nel programma universitario della Scuola Holden.

They also discuss travel safety tips and the upcoming changes to the podcast schedule. Key Points: Podcast Schedule Update: Beginning the first Wednesday of April, the podcast will switch to two episodes per month for a few months. This change is due to scheduling constraints. Travel Safety Advice: Travelers to the Napoli area should be aware of recent earthquake activity. Visitors should note the location of their country's consulate. A grab-and-go bag with essential documents is recommended. Recent heavy rains caused flooding in Florence, Pisa, Lucca, and parts of Emilia-Romagna. Modena's Centro Storico: Kimberly and Tommaso visited Modena, known for its balsamic vinegar and Ferrari. Kimberly recalls fond memories of buying balsamic vinegar during her time in Milan. The city was decorated for Christmas, with a unique style of lighting the streets. The hosts admired the lack of crowds in Piazza Grande. Modena was originally a Roman colony called Mutina. UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Modena has three UNESCO-recognized architectural masterpieces. The Duomo is a Romanesque building that took 220 years to build. The Bell Tower of the Duomo is known as Ghirlandina. The Piazza Grande is the third UNESCO site. Famous Modenese Figures: Luciano Pavarotti, the famous tenor, was from Modena. His home slightly outside the city is now a museum. Chef Massimo Bottura, who runs Osteria Francescana, is also from Modena. Giuseppe Giusti Balsamic Vinegar: The Giusti family has been producing balsamic vinegar since 1605. The shop on Piazza Grande has a very alluring interior. Kimberly and Tommaso tasted and purchased various vinegars. They paired the vinegar with parmigiano and Brunello upon returning home. Ferrari Museum: The museum focuses on the life and work of Enzo Ferrari. The museum showcases noteworthy Ferrari automobiles. The design and color of the cars, as well as the devotion to each car, stood out.

It's one of my three-day events that I'm running, and as I always do, I have everyone gather in a circle one at a time, I have everyone say their name and say one fun fact that would not be on their bio, so we go around, and person after person is introducing themselves, and we get to the last person who says, “Hi. I'm Sandy Zabarsky, and I just got out of prison.” The whole room goes silent and you can honestly hear a pin drop. Everyone's eyes are just on her, and for a split second, you can almost feel their assumptions kicking in. Like, what does she mean? Is she really just out of prison? Did I even hear that right? Then, she continues and says, “I've been an educator for most of my career. I work in the juvenile justice system, and I recently retired, so yes, I have just gotten out of prison, so to speak, and I spent my entire career there.” In that moment, the meaning of her words completely changed. The whole room, the feeling of the room, changes because what she says, it makes her work relevant and completely has a plot twist in the middle of this exercise because what mattered to her more than anything else is that it wasn't only about working in prison, but for her, it was helping the kids get their GEDs. That was really important because she knew that a piece of paper could mean the difference between them having a completely different life story and repeating the same pattern. Sandy Zabarsky, also known as my mom, helped me in many, many, many events throughout my career, helping us really look at storytelling in a different way. She helped me realize that storytelling isn't just about entertainment or something to read as a book here or a movie there. Instead, storytelling is about how we shape reality, and that's exactly what my guest today does. Professor Dr. Ger Graus OBE is a globally recognized education leader, known for his innovative approach to children's learning. Having held key roles at KidZania and the Children's University, he serves as a professor and advisor to various global education organizations, and has received numerous accolades, and he understands today's aspect of storytelling better than most people. You'll get answers to questions like: Why is storytelling so important in education? How does it impact learning? What are some hidden narratives in education that actually shape decisions and opportunities? How could storytelling be integrated into school curriculums? What benefits would it offer students? What common misconceptions exist about new technology in education? How can we change our mindset to embrace change instead of resisting it? What you will learn (about) in this episode: The power of perspective in storytelling and how a dramatic introduction can immediately shift perceptions How stories make learning more meaningful than rote memorization The value of personal narratives and how everyone, younger and older, has valuable stories to share How many people believe their stories aren't "big" enough but that storytelling is about connection and expression Finding humor and humanity in stories and how storytelling helps us process emotions and connect with others Who is Ger?
