Konservatiivses vestlussaates "Vaba sõna" räägivad EKRE poliitikud Anti ja Evelin Poolamets viimase nädala olulistest poliitilistest teemadest.Samuti meenutatakse 13 aasta möödumist Reformierakonna rahastamisskandaali algusest, mis on toonud meie poliitilisse leksikasse ja folkloori nii silvergate'i skandaali kui ka valge kampsuni, aga ka ämma kapi saaga. Ometi ei sega see kõik Reformierakonnal ja praegusel peaministril valitseda.“Vaba sõna” on eetris laupäeviti kell 12 Tre-raadios, sagedustel 97,0 Lääne-Virumaal ja osaliselt Ida-Virumaal. Saade on järelkuulatav Uutes Uudistes ning aadressil treraadio.ee.

"Meeskonnaaladel mängivad üksikud sportlased vahel omavahel nii hästi kokku, et seda ei ole võimalik selgitada ei õnne, juhuse ega omavahel jagatud peenete märguannetega. Võistkonnaliikmete vahel paistab valitsevat telepaatiline side," kirjutab inglise bioloog Rupert Sheldrake [1] oma raamatu "Kuidas minna edasi" [2] esimeses peatükis "Spordi spirituaalne pool". Nagu nimetatud teosele vahetult eelnenud raamatus "Teadus ja vaimne praktika" [3] tutvustab Sheldrake siin maailma suurtele religioonidele ühiseid spirituaalseid harjutusi. Kui "Teaduses ja vaimses praktikas" kirjutas autor meditatsioonist, tänulikkusest, suhetest looduse ja iseäranis taimedega, rituaalidest, ühislaulmisest ja palverännakutest, siis selle järjes on juttu spordi vaimsest poolest, loomade jagatud õppetundidest, paastumisest, psühheedeelikumidest, palvetamisest, pühast ajast ja headest harjumustest. "Suurem osa inimesi ei pea sporti vaimseks praktikaks," kirjutab ta kõnealuse raamatu esimeses peatükis, "sport tundub olevat veel iseäranis ilmalik. Ometi on nüüdisaegsetes sekulaarsetes ühiskondades erinevad spordiharrastused kõige tavalisemaks viisiks, mille abil inimesed kogevad täieliku kohalolu kaudu saavutatavat eneseületamist. Mediteerija meel võib ringi rännata ja end üksnes aeg-ajalt täiesti fokusseerida, ent olulises mängus osalev jalgpallur peab olema absoluutselt kohal või vastasel juhul kutsutakse ta peagi väljakult ära."Sheldrake'i kaks raamatut mõjutasid saatesarja ja samanimelise seitungi teemade valikut. Nii oli Tähenduse teejuhtide 19. number [4] pühendatud spordi spirituaalsele poolele. Nimetatud numbri intervjuu "Mäng ja momentum" [5] oli Rauno Pehkaga. "Eriti tennisemängus, aga samamoodi ka korvpallis käib mäng lainetena. Initsiatiiv, momentum, või kuidas me seda ka ei kutsuks, liigub lainetena. Ühel hetkel on momentum sinu poolel, kõik näib töötavat sinu kasuks ja vastase vastu," kirjeldas Rauno paljudele sportmängudele ühist dünaamikat.Sama meelt olid ka Eesti hoki- ja jalgpalliliitude juhid Rauno Parras ja Aivar Pohlak. Me alustasime oma jutuajamist sellestsamast momentumist ning jõudsime pooleteisttunnise vestluse lõpuks võistkonnakaaslaste telepaatilise sidemeni. "Mina usun sellesse küll," ütles siinkohal Rauno Parras, "eriti hokis, kus jääl ollakse viisikute kaupa. Selleks, et viisik mängima hakkaks, ei piisa üksnes treenitud oskustest, sinna peab juurde tulema mingi uus dimensioon, mis teeb nii viisikust kui ka meeskonnast toimiva organismi või üksuse... Telepaatia on täiesti olemas, mingite inimeste vahel see on, mingite inimeste vahel seda ei ole, aga kui see on, siis see kajastub ka tablool."Head uudistamist!H.——————————————————————[1] • Rupert Sheldrake: "Suurem osa inimest...

Patrik Kristali, Tony Varjundi ja paljud teised Eesti järgmise põlvkonna suurimad talendid üles kasvatanud Taavi Viik on üks perspektiivikamaid noori treenereid. Nüüdseks FC Flora esindusmeeskonna pingile istunud treener käis külas Õhtulehe taskuhäälingus „Kolmas poolaeg“. Põhimõttekindel Viik tunnistas, et tema usaldust on lihtne kuritarvitada, aga raske tagasi võita. Nii austab tema mängijaid, aga eeldab põhimõttekindla inimesena sama ka vastu. Tal on olemas helesinine unistus, millest ta kõva häälega ei räägi. Üldiselt ta oma karjääri pikalt ette ei planeeri, vaid liigub sammu kaupa. Kui ta on FC Flora esindusmeeskonda välja jõudnud, siis on järgmine samm olla seal edukas. Juuli alguses Flora seniselt peatreenerilt Norbert Hurdalt üle võtnud Viik sõnas, et muudatuste tegemine on hooaja keskel raske, aga ta püüab. Eeskätt on ta muutnud treeninguid intensiivsemaks. „Suhtlesime Norbertiga ka varasemalt, sest ta tegeles spordidirektorina duublite ja värbamisega. Jalgpallis oli meil maailmavaateliselt sarnasusi, aga ka erinevusi. Me oleme inimestena kaunis erinevad ja sealt hakkab pihta ka jalgpalliline poolt. Minu jaoks on alati treening kõige tähtsam. Kui treening pole intensiivne, siis seda ei saa ka mängus nõuda. Ma ei saa öelda, et Norberti trennid polnud intensiivsed, aga minu maitse jaoks mitte piisavalt,“ ütles ta. Kuivõrd suure osa oma karjäärist on Viik töötanud noortega, siis rääkisime ka noortetöö võlust ja valust. Ta tunnistas, et ühes asjas pole ta traditsiooniline treener – noorteklassis ei taha ta iga hinna eest võita. Näiteks Kristal, Varjund & co mängisid Eesti meistrivõistlustel endast pidevalt aasta või mitu vanematega ning pole kunagi tulnud meistriks. Ometi on nad jõudnud kaugemale kui enamik eakaaslaseid. „Kui sa kaotad väga palju, siis on midagi valesti ja sa mängid ilmselt vales liigas. Ja kui sa võidad väga-väga palju, siis on samamoodi midagi valesti. See on põhjus, miks me 2006. aasta pundiga mängisime kogu aeg 2005. aasta liigat – me ei jõudnud kunagi esiliigasse, vaid olime kogu aeg teises liigas,“ selgitas Viik.

Müstilistele ja vahel ka maistele teemadele pühendunud saates „Puuduta mind“ on seekord külas visuaalne praktik ja õpetaja Kati Orav, kelle kirg on mõtlemine koos pliiatsiga. Kati unistab maailmast, kus kõik inimesed oskavad ja julgevad taas joonistamist kasutada mõtlemise ning suhtlemise tööriistana. „Käisin hiljuti ühes koolis loengut pidamas ja selgus et 50 lapsest vaid 3 oskas joonistada,“ kurvastab visuaalne praktik ja õpetaja Kati Orav. „Mis meiega juhtunud on? Kas oleme end lõplikult virtuaalmaailma kaotamas?“ Saadet juhivad Anu Saagim ja Maria Baydar.

Pärast Murru vanglas käiku on meil nii mõndagi hingel. Dakil on süda haige, et kaduma läks kõnekatse ajal saadud materjal. Heidi ja Lisette tõdevad, et tegevust oli palju vähem, kui sellisest kohast oleks oodanud. Ometi on siin ka palju positiivset - väga palju infot saime hiljem materjali üle vaadates, saime nii mõnegi hea õppetunni ning lõppeks, kas mitte see ei näitagi, et oleme autentsed, sest kaamera jaoks niisama pulli tegema ei hakka?

Maurice Hamilton, "Niki Lauda". Kirjastuselt Helios. Tutvustab Timo Tarve. Kui Niki Lauda Nürburgringil põlevast autost välja tõsteti, ei uskunud keegi, et ta jääb elama. Ometi istus ta kuus nädalat hiljem taas Ferrarisse ja võitis oma esimese maailmameistritiitli. Nüüd on Maurice Hamilton kirjutanud põhjaliku raamatu tema erakordsest elust.

Tänase saate külaline Riina Õun kõneleb kuulajatele Mehhikost. Alustuseks kiidab Riina väga Mehhikot ja mehhiklasi – ta ise ei tajunud seal reisides ohtu ning leiab, et mehhiklased on väga külalislahked inimesed. Ometi oli ka ohtlikke või vähemalt ohtliku maiguga sündmusi. Näiteks kui üks mehhiklane kutsus enda kodu hoovi, et midagi näidata, kuid Riina silmas puu najal seisvat püssi... Juttu tuleb veel Temazcali tseremooniast (ja mis see üldse on), kuidas turistimasse vältida, püramiidi otsa ronimisest, juhuslikust kohtumisest merikilpkonnaga ning palju muud. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

TRANSCRIPT Dr. Jill Creighton [00:00:02]: Welcome to Student Affairs Voices From the Field, the podcast where we share your student affairs stories from fresh perspectives to seasoned experts. This is season nine on transitions in Student Affairs. This podcast is brought to you by NASPA. And I'm Dr. Jill Creighton. She her hers your essay Voices from the Field, host today on SA Voices, are pleased to bring you back to the Middle East, to the country of Kuwait to meet Omar Mehdi. Omar graduated from the American University of Kuwait with a BBA in Management in 2012 and then an Ma in Leadership in Higher Education from the University of San Diego in 2014. Omar returned to Auk in 2014 as the Sports Coordinator in the Office of Student Life and then in 2016 was promoted to Senior Coordinator for Sports in 2019, became the Assistant Director of the Office of Student Life, and then left the world of Student Affairs in 2020 to return in 2023 as the Director of the Office of Student Life. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:01:00]: I hope you enjoy getting to know Omar. Omar Mehdi, welcome to the show. Omar Mehdi [00:01:05]: Thank you very much. I'm very happy to be here and very happy to join you, Jill. Thank you for inviting me. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:01:11]: It's a wonderful thing to be able to continue our tradition of having guests from all over the world on SA Voices. And will you let our listeners know where we're speaking from today? Omar Mehdi [00:01:21]: So we are speaking live from Kuwait. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:01:24]: Excellent. And Omar works with a previous guest, Paula, who was on our International Voices season. Listeners, I'm also going to let you know that I'm a little under the weather as we record today, so my audio quality might just be a little bit different than what you're used to. But please bear with us as we I'm sure the conversation will be just as rich, just with a little bit of a deeper voice today. Omar, we love to start our shows by getting to know our guests, and you have one of the most interesting transitions on our season because you've gone from being a student at your university, american University of Kuwait, all the way through becoming the Director of Student Life. So can you tell us about that journey? Omar Mehdi [00:02:02]: Yes, it is very interesting to be a student in this university and then graduate from it, come back and work here. My path into this world of student affairs came by chance. I didn't expect that I would graduate and work in the field when I was a student at Auk at the American University of Kuwait. One of the admissions counselors who helped me get into Auk recommended working on campus, be a student employee, and she recommended me to the Office of Student Life because I wanted a job and I had time and why not? I started working at Office Student Life back then. And Then back then, the Dean Of Student Affairs, dr. Carol Ross, and The Director Of Student Life, Damien Medina, were I think they just started the nuff program, NASFA, and they recommended it to me. They like, Listen, if you're interested, this is a unique opportunity to be an undergraduate, a student who gets to know more about what we do and why we do it. I was passionate about working in general, and the fact that they gave me an opportunity to work got me into it. Omar Mehdi [00:02:55]: And then I did the nuff program, traveled to Philadelphia back then, where the NASA annual conference was, we did the pre conference with enough group. It was the first time I go to the US. And it was the first time I go to a real conference, not a small conference for undergraduates. It was one which is with professionals and opened up my eyes to realize that the three people that work in the office life at the American University of Kuwait are part of a much bigger group of people that do this. So to see the size, the scale, the number of people that have the same title but work across the US. Canada and more, it was huge for me. I was lucky that the speakers at the Nuff pre conference were outstanding. We had I forget the name of the title of the book, but the strengths, the five strengths. Omar Mehdi [00:03:35]: So that you do this quiz at the end of the book and they give you the five strengths. They brought the speaker. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:03:40]: It was really cool for Gallup strength. Omar Mehdi [00:03:43]: Yes. And he was really cool, very engaging. So it was a very enriching experience for me. And then after it, I started considering doing a Master's degree in the field in the Division of Student Affairs. I was lucky enough to be admitted and selected for the Student Affairs program at the University of San Diego. So at USD, I did my Master's in Leadership and Higher Education. And the beauty of that program is that you get to have your graduate assistantship with the coursework, too. So again, I was very lucky. Omar Mehdi [00:04:15]: And you'll notice this is like a pattern in my path. I've always been lucky with the people I work with. Assistant director back then, danielle Nelman and the other assistant director, Stephanie, and the Director of the center for Student Success. All of them were excellent mentors. All of them allowed me to be this little kid who comes from Kuwait who just graduated undergrad right to his masters, have very little experience in the real world to learn, make mistakes, grow and develop. The year and a half I spent USD was, I think, pushed me at least five years ahead than I used to think that I would by the time I graduate. And then I came back. Luckily, there was a position available at American University of Kuwait. Omar Mehdi [00:04:55]: So I started as a sports coordinator as a student. I was a student athlete, too, so I was a captain of soccer team. I was in the basketball team. I was in the volleyball team, I was in the table tennis team. So I was very well versed with our program student athlete. But now I came in as a coordinator, I was lucky that the position was available. I started there and then moved into the senior coordinator for sports, then assistant director. I took a sabbatical or a break from student affairs. Omar Mehdi [00:05:17]: I left in 2020, just before COVID to work in a corporate world for three years there, and then came back February 2023. So the beginning of this year back to a UK as the Director of Student Life. And that's how I got here. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:05:29]: You didn't take the worst three years off of the profession. Omar Mehdi [00:05:32]: Let me tell you again, I was lucky. It was a troubling time for every industry in the world. But to navigate to support students, and how to offer students an experience into a digital one is a very difficult one. And like every country in the world, kuwait was very unsettled at that point, and we didn't know what was happening. We don't know how long this is going to take. When do we go back? So I left just before COVID and came back just after COVID. So when Hybrid was done, online was done, I came back. So I never got to see university through a COVID experience. Omar Mehdi [00:06:02]: I never got to do that, which maybe I'm lucky, but the three years that I was away from the university's industry, I had to also participate or try to offer the company I worked for as much support as I can to the staff and clients that we had. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:06:17]: What made you want to depart the field during that time? Omar Mehdi [00:06:20]: So I graduated with a bachelor's in Business Management, and the position I moved out of the Auk to go to was one in the business field. It was a great opportunity to test something new, try something different. As you know, as great as it is to work in student affairs and to work in a university, I graduated from Auk. I went for a few years to the States, to two years in the States, came back and worked in Auk. I didn't know anything outside of Auk, which has a lot of advantages in the job because I know it really well. But as a person, as an individual, to grow, you have to kind of leave your comfort zone. You have to leave what you're used to and you have to try something different. I was lucky to in the three years that I was there, I was lucky to learn so much. Omar Mehdi [00:06:58]: And I think I came back as a much stronger candidate for the position than if I was promoted from assistant Director automatically to the director. In the three years I've learned so much about the real world when it comes to working with people that are not just students, they don't have to be here. They can choose to pay somewhere else and go because I work in the gyms industry. So it's a month to month relationship. They can choose next month to leave you. So what you work on, how you develop a relationship with them, is very different to I have a whole semester with you, at least if not four or five, six years. So I came back, as I said, as a much stronger candidate for the position. And I can add so much to what I do through both experiences in student affairs and outside. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:07:37]: What inspired you to come back into student affairs and specifically back to Auk after having that business experience? Omar Mehdi [00:07:44]: The inspiration always comes back to I love what I do in student affairs and I love the field. And I always thought, listen, I'll change the world one student at a time, just let me graduate from USD and the world will never be the same because I want to change the world. You do mature. You do realize it's not that as easy as it sounds, but there's a very different mindset. And I enjoyed my job outside of Auk. There's a very different hat you wear and a very different mindset that you have when you work in a business and you care about financials, you care about bottom line. And there's a very different mindset to trying to create experiences for students to develop, to grow, and to learn from the worries that you have. The concentration, the focus is very different. Omar Mehdi [00:08:22]: Going back to trying to build programs or trying to build an experience for students to better themselves, to learn to experience new things, is always something that has attracted me. And that's why when I knew the job was available, I automatically applied to it because I knew this is something I'd love to go back to. And to add to that, I've always done it from a sports perspective. I've always done it as a sports coordinator and then a senior sports coordinator, and then to be able to do it at a director level where I can impact or influence policies or programs at more than just sports. So under our department, we have athletics, we have clubs and organizations, code of conduct, student employment, we have a bunch of facilities that we're in charge of, the lounge, courts and so on. And to be able to influence more than just one aspect of student life is something that excites me to come back to. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:09:12]: You said something interesting earlier, which is that you brought back skills that you didn't have before based on the business experience you had. What are some of those skills that you gained while you were out working in corporate world that have really served you well coming into this role as director of Student life? Omar Mehdi [00:09:26]: Absolutely. So many one of the things that comes to mind very quickly is the change in network. So in network and student affairs, most of us do very similar jobs and open up very similar paths for each other because we're in the same industry. However, when you go to a different industry, your network suddenly changes and you network with a lot of different industries. And coming back knowing so many different having new ties and having new networks is something that was very valuable, I think, for me so far. A lot of the students have ideas but don't know where to go and don't know who to talk to. A lot of clubs and organizations want to reach out to organizations in Kuwait where they may be too busy and so on. But knowing individuals in It can open up doors and open up channels for them. Omar Mehdi [00:10:08]: That's one thing for sure. Another thing in the directorship position you have to assume responsibilities. You don't. As a coordinator, when I left Auk, I was the chief operating officer. So as a chief operating officer in a company, your HR manager reports to you, the finance manager reports to you. Understanding how those moving pieces work and the rationale behind them is something I didn't have in the past. So coming back to now as a director, I understand budgeting at a different perspective. I understand hiring at a different perspective. Omar Mehdi [00:10:36]: I understand scale at a different perspective. In the company I used to work in too, we'd organize nationwide events where, for example, there'd be thousands of people that attend our events. Whereas Auk total is 2000 something students. So to understand scalability is something what was new to me. I was used to the same scale. I was used to the exact same scale. As a student here, I graduated, I worked here. USD provided that too. Omar Mehdi [00:10:59]: But coming back here was easy. It wasn't something new to me. So understanding that planning at a different scale is something else and assuming responsibility and making hard decisions during COVID at such an executive position at a company where you have to choose to either let go of people, change contracts and so on, and then to move back to a decision making position where it's not as serious as decisions that we make. I'm never going to choose to close a branch or open up a branch. As a director of student life, I'm never going to choose. And this directly impacts people's livelihood. The decisions that we do here I can take a lot lighter than in the past position that I had, which gave me a lot of perspective too. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:11:35]: You've also come back to an environment where you mentioned this was kind of the main environment that you knew as an adult, right? You were a student there, you grew up in the sports environment there. Talk to us about the transition of going from student at the institution to professional and how your relationships with people at Auk needed to change at that time. Omar Mehdi [00:11:54]: Absolutely. This may sound very interesting to the audience. So when I was a student. I came into Auk in fall 2008 and I graduated spring 2012. In the four years that I was there, the law in Kuwait was that universities had to be segregated gender wise. So I would come to Auk. It is a mixed university with gender segregated classes, naturally, that influenced and changed the dynamics between the genders and between all of campus life. So I leave to the states, I come back, and this law has changed. Omar Mehdi [00:12:23]: And now classes are mixed naturally. This changes the overall atmosphere and the campus culture. So even today, which is a mixed culture, the university experience that the students are having today is very different to the one I was having simply because of that. Naturally, as I age and the gap gets bigger between me and the incoming students and the students on campus. So although they're the similar buildings, the exact same buildings, it's the same culture, sorry, it's the same colors, it's the same some of the same employees, some of the same staff, but the culture has shifted completely when I even speak to students today. The university I went to is a very different university that they went to simply because of the way we were. The life that we lived was a very different one. However, I did come back as a young employee. Omar Mehdi [00:13:05]: I was 24, and some of the students, especially the nontraditional ones, were close to my age, if not older. I did come back and found some of the students who I was friends with who are still students. The nature of the position that I had because I was a sports coordinator, you tend to be the fun guy. You're not like there to discipline, you're not charged for code of conduct. So it was easy to be the young guy on campus because you're the sports guy. So you're friends with all the players, you're friends with all the coaches, you're doing the fun stuff. However, I think one of the first things that I had to do, and I think it made me a better professional today, is right off the bat, I had to discipline athletes. So I do have to stick to a GPA requirement when selecting students. Omar Mehdi [00:13:45]: I do have to enforce these laws. I do have to make sure that their behavior in the team practice and so on is held to a certain standard. Doing it at an age where you're very young to them can cause a lot more conflict and friction, whereas if you're much older, maybe because of simply your age, there can be an assumed authority to your personality that they succumb to. But I think especially that I was balancing doing that meanwhile, while being the supervisor or the person in charge of all the coaches who are all older than and a few of them were my coaches too. And I've had to let go of one of them. Who? Once upon a time, I used to play for them. And now I have to let them go. So those experiences are very, very sticky and uncomfortable. Omar Mehdi [00:14:25]: And forcing myself to go through them and not backing down, I think have made me more confident moving forward. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:14:31]: Let's talk about that transition with that one person specifically, where you're going from being under their direction as a coach to being their leader as a supervisor. How did you navigate the shift in that relationship? Omar Mehdi [00:14:44]: So I had two coaches that I played for and then ended up coming back and becoming their supervisor. In the first year that I was back, I had to let go of one of them. The second year I was back, I had to let go of the second one. I think the first one was, I think, a rough transition. That person didn't take it well, didn't take me offering pointers about how they do their job well, them not taking my feedback seriously, although it sounded serious, although I tried to do it in a serious setting. In the first year I worked at Auk, I'd also dress more professionally just to put that boundary and standard between me and the students and the people that report to me. However, they still never took it that seriously. And when it came to a point in time where we can no longer continue, they never reacted really well. Omar Mehdi [00:15:23]: I also think if I were to do it today, I would have done things a lot differently. I have learned in the past, unfortunately, 20 years of working. But the point I'm trying to make is the second time I was able to do it, the personality of the person that I had to ask to step down from the position was a lot more accepting of their mistakes and faults. I also learned that sometimes, even if because you can be really hard on yourself, on the approach because if it doesn't turn out to be as smooth as you hope for it, you also realize that it's not always only on the setting that you put. The other person plays a role. And the character and the personality that you are dealing with is a variable to the situation. So the second situation went a lot smoother, and that person, although they were let go, they were appreciated by the team, the university, they were given a farewell gift and so on. Whereas the first one, it was more storming out. Omar Mehdi [00:16:09]: Never want to talk to you again. This is ridiculous. I had to play it back. Driving back home and you're in the shower, you think about what they said. You know, these moments in your life where you think about these difficult situations where if you were to go back, you'd say some things differently. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:16:21]: Can you tell us more about what it meant for you to reflect on it and go through your own growth process? Omar Mehdi [00:16:28]: Luckily, because of the program that I was in in the university of San Diego. Reflection was huge. Reflection is huge in the process, and it's very embedded in the coursework that we do, coming from the background and atmosphere I came from in Kuwait. To go to USD and try to reflect on my own life was a very new skill. I have never reflected my life to be especially publicly too, there were situations where you would have to publicly reflect and you have to talk about what your reflections look like because that's how the setting is made in the classroom. And because it was very difficult. And by the time I graduated, I actually was able to do this. Now I'm able to reflect, get in touch with my feelings and vocalize how I feel and communicate what I need, what I'm feeling, what I'm learning was a huge advantage for me in the program. Omar Mehdi [00:17:14]: It's one of the main things I actually walked away with that I still use today. And it's something I practice in my positions that I've had. But in that period of time, it's interesting because at that point in time, you do reflect on how the words that are said or things that are communicated in the meeting may bruise your ego or bruise your authority and you want to defend it. The first reaction you may have is, I want to defend my ego and defend my authority, and I need to put my foot down. And because in that room I am the younger person. I am the person that not too long ago, I used to be your player, I'd had to be a lot more diplomatic and let go of the bruising that was happening to the ego and the position and the authority. So reflecting on maybe I could have been more aggressive. Reflecting on what if I did this, what would have happened? Maybe thinking I should have made it short and sweet. Omar Mehdi [00:18:02]: I shouldn't have maybe gone through an entire meeting with time, unfortunately, I've had several situations where I've had to let go of people. I've been able to maybe see the mistakes that I've done in that meeting and then not repeat them in the future situations, unfortunately, that I've had. But in that period of time where I was going through it, it was difficult because it was a very aggressive meeting. It wasn't a good situation. In the back of your mind, you keep circling back to the because you could have said this and you could have done this. And maybe you think, and this is a person that I don't necessarily have bad feelings towards you. I just don't think you're the right person for this job. But because I was your player, I do have a fond memory of you. Omar Mehdi [00:18:41]: And now that's ruined because now you think I'm a horrible monster who's let you go. But I actually don't have anything against you. I just think we need to try someone else. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:18:49]: Let's go back in time a little bit and talk about your transition to being an international student. You've spent most of your life in Kuwait, if not all of your life in Kuwait. And you're like, let's go to San Diego. It's sunny there. But tell us about that immersion into American culture and your adjustment period into life in USC. Omar Mehdi [00:19:08]: All right, so, as you said, lived my whole life here, born and raised. And sometimes it's like the fish in the water. They don't know they're wet, and you have to leave to know what dry is, because you have to leave the sea to know that what dry looks like. In Kuwait, I knew myself through titles. I am the captain of the football team. That is what I do. I play football. I am the youngest son to my parents. Omar Mehdi [00:19:31]: That is what I do. I am the youngest son to them. I am friends with so and so. That is what do. And because I was in that setting, I never got a chance to actually get to know who I am outside of these roles that you play. The moment I moved to the United States, and the moment you go there, you realize the world's much bigger than the little world you live in. And this can be true to any country, any city you live in. And because the United States is really far in distance and in similarities between the country I live in, everything is new. Omar Mehdi [00:19:54]: I never paid attention to the color of my skin till I went to the United States. I never realized I have a color of my skin till I walked into the US. That I realized I don't look like them. They do look at me and see a difference. My accent, the things I say, what's appropriate to say and what's not appropriate to say. You can say things in Kuwait that can make everybody laugh and make everybody feel comfortable, but you can say in the States, and everybody will think you're horrible and think you're crossing all kinds of red lines. So moving there in the beginning and this is the thing, I had visa issues to get to the States, so I missed the first semester. And then because of my assistantship, that goes with the actual being admitted to the university. Omar Mehdi [00:20:29]: So there was an office who was waiting for me to come that I actually never turned up to for a whole semester because they were waiting on me to get my visa. And by the time I got there, it was literally a few days before spring orientation. We were in charge of spring orientation as an office center for student success. So I literally had to hit the ground running. There was no room for you to train right now. Whatever task I give, you just have to do it. We will get to training you later. We will get to transitioning you later today. Omar Mehdi [00:20:50]: We have to do orientation. And it was the first time they do orientation too, as an office, maybe there was the first time for the center for Student Success to organize orientation, but for me, it was the first time doing everything. The learning curve for them was related to orientation. For me, it was everything. Whether it was orientation, these people, their names, what time does the sun set? Where do I get what this and that? I moved there not having an apartment or a place to stay. I stayed at a motel in the beginning, so I'd finish work and go back to a motel. Classes haven't started yet, so that's a new curve that's coming up. And I think I was lucky to have that. Omar Mehdi [00:21:20]: And I think because I hit the ground running, there wasn't time for me to dwell on the differences, dwell on the culture shock. Because you hit the ground running, you quickly have to adapt. And no time I was able to get myself sorted and move into a place and all that stuff. But the person that went to the United States of America and the person that left the United States of America are two different people. And I'm a much better person because of the experience I had. If I never went to the United States, I think I'd still be the same person I was. And I would say that is a worse off human being. I think as a person, I became much better outside of career wise. Omar Mehdi [00:21:53]: Career wise, I've developed mentally because of the experiences I had, because of the mentors that I had, because of the program that I was in. But genuinely, as a human being, I also improved a lot. I've changed a lot. The reflection process that is embedded into the program has allowed me to change some of the things that I never realized were a part of who I am. And going back to the point I was saying earlier where I knew myself through my roles, going to a country that A doesn't care about, maybe soccer, in the same way Kuwait does, and who I do as a person, and realizing you have a skill nobody cares about, and then nobody knows who you are. You don't know who anybody is, you don't know where things are. And trying to create something in that environment made me a much more confident, much more independent, and much more well rounded. I used to live with my parents. Omar Mehdi [00:22:36]: I still live with my parents because of the culture that we live in. You don't leave your house until you get married. So naturally, food is something I take for granted, laundry is something I take for granted. And this is something every college student feels the first time they go getting to learn how to do their laundry and something new. But it was new to me, and I was doing it as the older dog. I was doing it as. A person who has 21 years old, not 1718. So now I'm a little different, too, in that aspect. Omar Mehdi [00:22:59]: And then you move into the actual coursework and the actual program. And it was very strange to me that people were talking about their feelings in the classroom. It was extremely strange. It was strange to the point of it was off putting. Like, why are you being emotional? I don't want to learn this. I want to learn what says in textbook. I'm still looking at it as a traditional education style. And people were talking, everybody's talking about their feelings. Omar Mehdi [00:23:22]: And I'm sitting there thinking, this is ridiculous. You guys need to take yourself seriously. There's a professor here. And then some of them would be emotional to a point where they would cry. And to me, this is ridiculous. Guys, come on. Get a good grip. And I never understood the value of what they were bringing to the table till, I think, my second semester. Omar Mehdi [00:23:40]: And that's when everything clicked, kind of. I started drinking the Koolaid, tried to understand what it is that we do and why we do it. Understanding that emotion isn't a bad thing, feeling it isn't a bad thing. The knowledge and learning that you get from getting in touch with these emotions and unraveling the onion is something that is valuable. Understanding also that in Kuwait, being a student employee at a university, it's a great experience, but you're not really in charge of a lot of bigger things. And then you move to the States, and now you're a graduate assistantship. So it has a higher responsibility. The volume of work is more responsible, or the kind of work is more responsible. Omar Mehdi [00:24:15]: And then these supervisors aren't. I don't know them. They're new to me. And working to impress them was something very hard for me because I don't know who they are. I don't know what they expect when it comes to the delivery of work or the quality of work that you have to do. I was very impressed by them, and naturally, I wanted to impress them. So that was great, and I learned a lot from being able to work with them. And the best part of my program, what made transitioning to life in the United States and San Diego specifically, is the program was very sensitive to the fact that I am an international student. Omar Mehdi [00:24:46]: They were very careful with my transition in the sense that we had a cohort that would meet every two weeks as a class, and we would talk about our experiences. The people in the cohort were also very friendly to the fact that, hey, Amar is not from here. Like, how's doing? I think they were very welcoming. I was very lucky to have a very welcoming cohort that wanted what's best for me. They would talk to me about my transition and how I'm coping, which some people may not do that. You may not be so lucky to have a cohort that actually cares to check in, to actually care to give. You advice to actually to see how it's like to be the international student and see your input or what you bring to the table, your perspective as valuable. So in a nutshell, it's lucky to have that experience. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:25:24]: What advice would you give student affairs professionals around the world to support international students coming to their campuses? Omar Mehdi [00:25:30]: I think they should listen. I think that international students is a title you use for non US students. However, we as a group have so many different things. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:25:40]: Literally the entire world, it's everybody but American. Omar Mehdi [00:25:43]: And we are all very, very different in our backgrounds and so on. However, we do go through similar aspects of US. What makes us international students, the culture shock, the transition, trying to get self sorted and so on. However, listening is very important. The student groups that come to you may have very different needs, may experience things very differently. So maybe a student from a certain country may experience the exact same thing. A different student is from a different country experiencing it very differently. The international office that belonged to the USD at University of San Diego was also very cultured, which, I don't mean this in a bad way, but it isn't the same in the States. Omar Mehdi [00:26:15]: Like in my first week in the US. Someone came to me and said, Where are you from? And I said, Kuwait. And they said, oh, is that inside India? And to me it didn't offend me. I laughed because I was like, oh, Sweden, no, you need to open up a map of the world to me. I laughed. It didn't offend me, but it could offend people. That not knowing the difference between someone who is and it happens in the world because there are a lot of states that are neighboring and have very similar populations but hate each other and don't get along. So mistakening the difference between one and so listening and realizing that students have different needs and number two, being cultured and incoming student. Omar Mehdi [00:26:49]: Especially that as a person who is Muslim, who does believe in Islam, who does practice Islam and lives in a conservative country, when you go to the United States, which is a very liberal country, a lot of things can offend me. And trying to understand if this is something that may be normal to Americans, maybe hard for me to swallow or to cope with, can impact my experience and impact my retention. Reasons to come back is something very important because one of the things that used to happen in the class, especially in student affairs, they'll talk about LGBT concerns. And this is unheard of in where I come unheard of. And to be in a classroom where you're trying to understand their perspective is something that is foreign and alien to me because this is not something that is welcomed nor accommodated in where I come from. So this is one example, but you can have so many, and because again, I come from Kuwait, right? So a lot of people would ask me about Iraq as if I lived there, and then the war in Iraq was still going on, so people would ask me about the war and the troops. And San Diego is a very Marines heavy city, and a lot of our students in USD were there for the GI G Bill or what's it called, and they would come and want to talk to me about Iraq and talk about their experience. But that's not mine. Omar Mehdi [00:27:56]: I know it's close, but it's not mine. And I've never been to Iraq. So it's trying to understand the nuances of where they come from is very important because you're going to welcome them in as a university and you have a responsibility to make them feel comfortable in the same way that you have a responsibility to make res life, to be comfortable for the incoming freshman students and so on. So for me, the International Student Office needs to a listen, and b be more cultured in the nuances of the student groups coming in because they come with very, very different backgrounds. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:28:22]: It's time to take a quick break and toss it over to producer Chris to learn what's going on in the NASPA world. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:28:28]: Thanks, Jill. So excited to be back in the NASPA world, and as always, there's a ton of things happening in NASPA, and I always love being able to share with you some of the great things that are happening. Another great blog on the NASPA website how community Colleges and University Partnerships improve enrollment and student experiences. This is by Sherry Rowland of Tallahassee Community College. Sherry provides some really great insights into her own experience, but also some practical applications and takeaways that you may be able to consider for implementing at your own campus. If you've never checked out the NASPA blog, you need to go over to the NASPA website, click on the latest, and go down to blog. Or you can just scroll over to the latest and go down to blog and you'll find this article right toward the top of the page. Finally, we are thrilled to announce that ACPA College Student Educators International and NASPA Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education are once again partnering to devise and update the ACPA NASPA professional competencies for student affairs educators, along with the complementary rubrics with a planned release for the updates in Spring 2025. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:29:50]: There's a large number of individuals from both ACPA and NASPA that are on the Task Force. As the Task Force begins its work, we at NASPA are excited to offer the first of many opportunities for members to provide feedback about your experiences with and use of the professional competencies in your work. This first opportunity will be focused on groups centering on individuals in various positions in January 2024, NASPA will offer additional focus groups based on the ten current professional competency areas. NASPA also will provide an opportunity to offer written feedback via a short survey. Should have received an email just recently where you can sign up for one of the initial focus groups. All you have to do is click on the link in your email to be able to sign up for a session. And Espa does anticipate that these sessions will fill, but there will be additional opportunities that will continue to offer other engagement opportunities for you to provide feedback over the next few months. Every week, we're going to be sharing some amazing things that are happening within the association. Dr. Christopher Lewis [00:30:57]: So we are going to be able to try and keep you up to date on everything that's happening and allow for you to be able to get involved in different ways. Because the association is as strong as its members and for all of us, we have to find our place within the association, whether it be getting involved with a knowledge community, giving back within one of the centers or the divisions of the association. And as you're doing that, it's important to be able to identify for yourself where do you fit, where do you want to give back? Each week. We're hoping that we will share some things that might encourage you, might allow for you to be able to get some ideas that will provide you with an opportunity to be able to say, hey, I see myself in. That knowledge, community. I see myself doing something like that or encourage you in other ways that allow for you to be able to think beyond what's available right now, to offer other things to the association, to bring your gifts, your talents to the association and to all of the members within the association. Because through doing that, all of us are stronger and the association is better. Tune in again next week as we find out more about what is happening in NASPA. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:32:18]: Chris, we always appreciate the time and effort you put into the NASPA World segment and keeping us informed on what's going on in and around NASPA. Omar, we have now reached our lightning round segment, which means I have about 90 seconds for you to answer seven questions. You ready to go? Omar Mehdi [00:32:33]: Let's go.

Dr. Jill Creighton [00:33:02]: And finally, number seven any shout outs you'd like to give, personal or professional? Omar Mehdi [00:33:06]: I'd like to give a shout out to the American University of Kuwait with all the employees and faculty that have made me the person I am today, whether as a student or as an employee. I learned from them and learned from them on a daily basis, and I'm very grateful for everyone who has been a part of it. Last but definitely least, I'd like to give a shout out to my family who make me who I am and have to tolerate who I am too. So shout out goes to them. Dr. Jill Creighton [00:33:29]: Thank you so much for sharing your perspective from Kuwait. I think it's always amazing to have more international voices on the show. The vast majority of our listenership comes from the US. But we're getting quite a bump coming in from Qatar lately. A few downloads here and there from many, many other countries too, but just really appreciative of you coming in and sharing your perspective on all of the transitions you've had over the years.

Tänaseks peamiselt meelahutusmaailmas sisu loomisega leiba teeniv Robin Valting on üles ehitanud ka arvestatava investeerimisportfelli, kust leiab nii suuri võite kui ka kaotajaid. Ometi on Valtingu sõnul oluline kusagilt alustada. Kuula, kuhu ta on raha investeerinud? Mis on tema eesmärk ja kuidas hindab ta suhet rahaga?

Tänase saate külaline Gerda Carina on portreefotograaf ja kunstnik, kes on juba enam kui kümme aastat välismaal elanud ning teinud seal suuri tegusid. Gerda hinnangul on üsna tavapärane arvamus, et loomeinimesed peaksid olema justkui nälgivad kunstnikud. Tema aga loob kunsti ning on samal ajal ärinaine. Kui Gerda keskkooli lõpetas, lendas ta üheotsapiletiga Londonisse ja hakkas oma elu seal üles ehitama. Algul oli väga keerulisi perioode, näiteks oli tal mingil ajal vaid 1 nael (pisut üle 1 euro) päevarahaks. Ometi tundis noor naine, et pigem sureb kui loobub ja tuleb koju tagasi. Gerda meenutab, et päris valus oli kuulda, kui talle öeldi, et Londonis pole ta mitte keegi. Eestis oli tal juba suur klientuur, kuid Londonis oli tarvis nullist alustada… Saates jutustab Gerda loo sellest, kuidas end välismaal üles töötas. Teemaks tuleb kullaga maalimine, milliste kuulsustega on koostööd teinud, mis hetkel ta läbi põles ja palju muud. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

Lõpuks ometi vabanevad Activisioni töötajad ja aktsionärid Bobby Kotickust. Vahepeal vabanes aga Unity John Riccitiellost, kuid kas sellest piisab ettevõtte maine päästmiseks? Lisaks on meil mänguritele rõõmsaid uudiseid – Microsofti Activisioni tehing kiideti lõpuks heaks ning meie loosime saates “Spider-Man 2” välja. 00:00 Keerutame loosiratast, et selgitada välja see õnnelik, kes Spider-Man 2 endale võidab […]

Miks lakuvad teadlased kive; kuidas laipadest roboteid ehitada; mis juhtub te ajuga, kui kordate ühte ja sama sõna kümneid kordi; kuidas mõjub teie ajule tagurpidirääkimine; mis saab, kui ehitada kempsupott, mis sõna otseses mõttes teie tagant nuhib; kuidas igavlev õppejõud mõjub üliõpilastele; mida teevad anšoovised oma magamistubades ja kuidas see maailma mõjutab; mis juhtub möödaminejaga, kui pajud inimesed taevasse vaatavad; mis saab siis, kui söögiriistast saate väikese elektilöögi suhu ning kui palju ninakarvu on inimese ühes ja teises ninasõõrmes – need on teemad, mille eest sel aastal juba tavatu ja veidra teaduse teemalised preemiad sel aastal välja anti, juba 33. korda. Sel teemal arutavad Postimehe teadusajakirjanik Marilis Kolk ja saatejuht Marek Strandberg.

Jukka Tarkka, "Karu käpa all". Postimehe kirjastuselt. Tutvustab Timo Tarve. Soome riigi tegutsemist külma sõja surve all on harjutud pidama pelgaks Nõukogude Liidule meele järgi olemiseks. Ometi oskas Soome osavalt põigeldes hoiduda Nõukogude Liidu poole kaldumast ning liitus oskuslikult Lääne struktuuridega. "Karu käpa all" räägibki sellest kui mitmekihiline finlandiseerumine tegelikult oli, mille käigus loodi ka arvestatav kaitsevõime, millega suur idanaaber arvestama pidi.

Reede õhtul hakkasid rulluma sündmused, mille tulemusel tundus, et Wagneri võitlejad jõuavad juba laupäeva õhtul Moskvasse. Ometi otsustas Jevgeni Prigožin oma väed tagasi pöörata.

“Kui lähen pimedal sügisõhtul üksinda jalutama, siis ma mõtlen oma trajektoori läbi,” tunnistab skandaalse saate “Kuuuurija” juht Katrin Lust, kelle igapäevane osa läbi oma tööle on kohtuasjad ja tapmisähvardused. Ometi on ta leidnud tänu emaks saamisele hingerahu.

Merle Talvikust sai tänu tohutule tahtmisele näitleja. Varietee taustaga solisti ei usutud. Ometi pääses ta lavakasse ning sealt edasi kinolinale. Näiteks Jaak Joala partneriks filmi "Teisikud".

Stuudios Priit Hõbemägi, Ainar Ruussaar ja Ignar Fjuk. Vaiksel laupäeval, 8. aprillil on Keskpäevatunni teemad: Arutame uue XV Riigikogu koosseisu valimistega seotut, koalitsiooni läbirääkimisi, tulevast valitsuse programmi ja uurime muudatusi, mis meid ees ootavad. Kas uued maksud tulevad? Millised? Või aktsiisitõus? Kuidas muutuvad ministeeriumid? Kes saavad ministriteks? Riigikohtu etteheited e-valimistele. Ja mis asi see koalitsioonileping ikkagi on, mida ükski Eesti Vabariigi seadus ei maini, aga millest ometi juhinduvad nii seadusandlik kui täitevvõim.

Ja mis asi see koalitsioonileping ikkagi on, mida ükski Eesti Vabariigi seadus ei maini, aga millest ometi juhinduvad nii seadusandlik kui täitevvõim.

Seekordne „Futboliit“ räägib peamiselt Eesti jalgpallist, kuid sekka ka Meistrite liigast. Saate esimeses osas räägitakse põhjalikult Eesti Premium liiga hooaja algusest – üllatustulemusi on esimese kolme vooru jooksul juhtunud tavatult palju. Mida nendest järeldada ja kes on olnud seni suurimad üllatajad? Koondisejalgpalli sektsioonis (9:30) räägitakse esmalt saatejuht Joel Indermitte juhendatava U19 koondise tegemistest, kuid minnakse siis sujuvalt üle Eesti A-koondise mängudele Ungari ja Austriaga. Mida järeldada eilsest 0:1 kaotusmängust Budapestis, milline võiks välja näha algkoosseis esmaspäeval Linzis toimuvas EM-valikmängus ning miks sobiks Eestile Austria vastu tegelikult ka kaotus? Saate viimases osas heidetakse pilk Meistrite liiga veerandfinaalide loosile (28:30) ning pannakse paika värske Meistrite liiga power rankingsi edetabel. Põhjalikult räägitakse ka Müncheni Bayernis toimuvast – äsja saabusid klubist teated, et peatreener Julian Nagelsmannile on kinga antud, et teha ruumi Thomas Tuchelile. Miks otsustas Bayern sellisel hetkel lootsi vahetada ning mida see endaga kaasa võib tuua? Saatejuhid on Raul Ojassaar ja Joel Indermitte. Parimad spordiennustuse koefid leiad www.olybet.ee!

Tänase saate külaline Kunnar Karu räägib matkakogemustest Gröönimaal. Kunnar kinnitab, et Gröönimaa on ülimalt põnev sihtkoht – justkui pooleldi Rootsi ja pooleldi Lapimaa. Igal pool valitseb tühjus selle parimas mõistes. Ometi on tegemist kohaga, kuhu keegi ei taha naljalt sattuda. Kindlasti heidutavad turiste Gröönimaa ilmaolud (kuigi suvel on täitsa sobiv reisida), kuid teisalt on sinnaminek üsnagi kallis lõbu. Kunnar soovitab Gröönimaale suundudes oma reisi tavapärasest pisut rohkem planeerida. Kuna turiste on vähe ja ka näiteks hotellide valik on kasin, võib juhtuda, et niisama kohale saabudes ei ole isegi kusagil ööbida. Veel on saates juttu Gröönimaa ainsast matkarajast, miks on see järvede maa, putukate rünnakust, kohalike alkoholilembusest ja palju muud. Kindlasti soovitab Kunnar Gröönimaale sõites minna välja linnadest ja küladest – just siis on näha tõelist ehedust. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

Tänase saate külaline Johanna-Kadri Kuusk jutustab meile Vietnamist. Esimene linn Vietnamis (ja tegelikult ka terves Kagu-Aasias), kuhu Johanna-Kadri jõudis, oli Ho Chi Minh – ta tunnistab, et sealne liiklus võttis esiti sõnatuks. Tundus valitsevat tõeline kaos ning reegleid ei paistnud olevat. Vaatamata sellele otsustas Johanna-Kadri õige pea ka ise rolleri selga istuda – tõsi küll, pigem väiksemates paikades, kus liiklus oli pisut rahulikum. Just rolleriga oli hea ringi kulgeda ning uudistada vietnamlaste põnevat eluolu. Johanna-Kadri jõuab saates arusaamisele, et vietnamlaste elu pole kerge. Ometi räägivad kohalikud sellest võrdlemisi kergelt, ilmselt on asi selles, et nad lihtsalt ei tea, et mujal on parem. Juttu tuleb ka näiteks suurest prügiprobleemist, turismist (mis teeb kohati riigile liiga), kuidas turiste surutakse oma mulli ning sellest, et tegelikult on Eestis ikka päris hea elu. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

Tänase saate külaline Piret Lauk-Oiov on teist korda beebiootel ning tõelise reisientusiastina ei ole ta põlanud ära ka rasedana reisimist. Näiteks on ta käinud rasedana Madeiral (24-25 ndl), Küprosel (30 ndl), Hispaanias (34 ndl) ja nüüd Tansaanias (24 ndl). Piret tunnistab, et esimest last oodates olid nad mehega veidi naiivsed esmakordsed lapsevanemad, uskudes, et nende elu uue ilmakodaniku saabudes ei muutu. Nüüd teavad nad, et beebiootuse ajal reisides on vaja mõelda läbi nii enda kui laste turvalisus. Ometi kinnitab Piret, et rasedana on ka väga tore ja lõõgastav reisida. Kui eelnevad sihtkohad on jäänud siiski Euroopa piiresse, siis Tansaaniasse Sansibari saarele minnes otsustati Aafrika igapäevaellu sukelduda. Piret tõdeb, et piletid said ostetud emotsiooni pealt ning väga palju ohtudele nad ei mõelnud. Kohalikega suheldes sai ta aru, et arstiabi kättesaadavus on seal küllaltki kehv. Saates annab Piret nõu, mida arvestada rasedana lendamisel, millised dokumendid on vajalikud, mis juhul võib lennufirma keelduda pardale lubamast, millist abi saab elukaaslane osutada ja palju muud. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

Tänase saate külaline Carolin Klausner elab suure osa oma ajast Bahreinis ning on korduvalt ka jõuluaega Lähis-Ida riigis tähistanud. Et tegemist on moslemiriigiga, siis meile tuttavaid klassikalisi jõule seal pole. Ometi on rohkelt mõjutusi jõulupühadest ja paljud kohalikud on võtnud jõuludest üle selle armsa osa – kingid ja perega koosolemise. Kui Eestis on jõululaupäev vaba päev, siis Bahreinis on tegemist täitsa tavalise tööpäevaga. Carolin tunnistab, et tema jaoks on see kummaline. Ilukliinikus töötav neiu muigab, et paljud tema kliendid teavad küll, et 24. detsember on kristlaste jaoks tähtis päev, kuid ei mäleta, mida soovima pidi… Nii soovitakse tihtipeale palju õnne sünnipäevaks. Veel tuleb saates juttu moslemite traditsioonidest (mida võiks teataval määral jõuludega võrrelda), kuidas kohalikud pühadesse suhtuvad, mil moel välismaa tüdrukud panid moslemipoisid jõuluvana mängima ja palju muud. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

Tänase saate külaline Albina Prenga on Üllatav Kreeta blogi autor (ainus eestikeelne blogi Kreetast, kus võib leida toredaid lugusid elust-olust päikesesaarel), kes on nüüdseks jõule Vahemere saarel veetnud seitse-kaheksa korda. Ometi igatseb ta jõuluperioodil kodumaiselt kargeid pühi ja õiget jõulutunnet. Albina sõnul ei ole kreetalaste jaoks jõulud kõige tähtsamad pühad, kuid siiski neid tähistatakse. Mingit erilist materiaalsust ja metsikut kinkide hankimist sel perioodil ei ole. Kõige rohkem seostuvad jõulud kreetalastele hoopis oliivide korjamisega. Loomulikult on jõulud tähtsad laste jaoks, kes ikka kingitusi ootavad. Muuseas, päkapikud aga Kreeta lastel ei käi – sellest tavast ei olda midagi kuulnud. Saates tuleb veel juttu jõulu-eelsest paastust, traditsioonilisest jõululauast, jõulutunde tekitamisest mandariinisaludes ja palju muud. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

„Metsas kaovad inimestelt maskid kiirelt ning nad suudavad väljendada ka oma kõige sügavamal peidus olnud mõtteid,“ on kogenud tänase Naistelehe podcasti Mõttekoht külaline, coach Siim Mihailov, kes julgustab inimesi rohkem metsakeskkonnas viibima – see mõjub hästi nii kehale kui vaimule. Kuidas mets inimestele mõjub, teab Siim oma kogemustest, sest viibis töö tõttu hulk aastaid peamiselt metsas. „Läks hulk aega, kuniks ma hakkasin nägema, mis minu ümber on. Kui alguses olid kõik puud ühesugused, siis järsku oli igaüks neist erinev,“ kirjeldab ta. Tuleb siinkohal lisada, et maal kasvanud Siimule ei olnud mets sugugi võõras keskkond. Siim teab, et nii metsa kui inimese paremaks tundmaõppimiseks tuleb esmalt õppida märkama. Ometi on metsal võime panna inimest ka üsna lühikese ajaperioodi jooksul sügavuti endasse vaatama ning maski langetama. Mis vägi see ometi on? Ja miks üldse peaks tegelema enesearenguga, olgu siis koos arengutreeneriga või ilma, just looduskeskkonnas ning millist kasu on coachist, sellest värskes saates räägimegi. Vestlust juhib Naistelehe toimetaja Silja Paavle.

13. detsember on Lucia päev. Lucia sündis 3. sajandil ja suri märtrina 304. aastal. Ometi on tema austamise traditsioon elav tänini.

438. Jukuraadio köögilauda on kutsutud grokki jooma rahandusminister Annely Akkermann. Kihnus sündinud ja kasvanud Annely Akkermann, keda on ajakirjanduses ka "Kihnu kuningannaks" tituleeritud, ei meenuta oma maneeride ja oleku poolest üldse rahandusministrit. Ometi – just seda ametit ta peab. "Meretagune asi" – nii kirjutas Jüri Tuulik kord Abrukast. Ent vähem või rohkem kehtib see sedastus kõikide saarte kohta. Mandrilt vaadates toimetavad seal ringi vähe kiiksuga inimesed. Nii ka Kihnust vallale pääsenud rahandusminister Annely Akkermann, keda on lihtsam kujutada ette kimamas kalakastiga motikas mööda Kihnu teid, kui ministeeriumi linoleumil koosolekut pidamas. Aga muljed, nagu teada, võivad olla ka pagana petlikud. Igal juhul – numbritega on Annely tuttav lapsest saati, ta hakkas ettevõtjaks 1991. aastal ja ütleb: “Olin 50-kilone lapsettevõtja”. 1993. aastal avas Annely Kihnus esimese poe.

Saates “Rahvakabinet” räägivad Eesti Konservatiivse Rahvaerakonna poliitikud Kalle Grünthal ja Tarmo Hints möödunud meeleavaldusest kõrgete energiahindade vastu Tallinnas Vabaduse väljakul.Tänati kohaletulnuid ning tõdeti, et paljud inimesed siiski ei julge veel oma meelsust välja näidata. Ometi on hinnatõusud veel ees ka erinevate maksude näol.

20aastane talendikas ründaja Murad Velijev on hooaja edenedes FCI Levadia esindusmeeskonnas korralikult kanda kinnitanud ja kuulub stabiilselt algkoosseisu. Ometi ei pruugi me Eestis sündinud ja kasvanud noormeest enam kunagi näha Eesti koondises. „Kolmanda poolaja“ vutisaates külas käinud Velijev rääkis oma taustast lähemalt. Tema mõlemad vanemad on aserid ja nii avanes talle kevadel kutse Aserbaidžaani U21 koondisesse. Seal on kõik nii hästi õnnestunud, et isegi kui novembris peaks Velijevi vastu huvi tundma Eesti A-koondise peatreener Thomas Häberli, siis jääks noormees ikka oma esialgsele valikule truuks. Miks? Velijev võrdleb elu Aserbaidžaani koondises ja Eesti noortekoondisetega, räägib oma vutiteekonnast, kahest aastast Saksamaal ning tänavusest Levadia-hooajast. Head kuulamist!

Tänase saate külalised on Ats Remmelg ja Kätlyn Jürissaar, kes on kirglikud rattamatkajad. Kokku on käidud kahel pikal rattamatkal. Ats oli see, kes Kätlynit rattapisikuga nakatas – nii tunduski see Kätlyni jaoks nii põnev, et oli nõus minema rattamatkale ilma mingi füüsilise ettevalmistuseta. Noor naine tunnistab naerdes, et eks esimesed poolteist kuud tõstis ta valuga jalga ratta peale… Kolmveerand aasta jagu kestev rattamatk võtab loomulikult ka palju raha… nii teavad Kätlyn ja Ats, et oleks saanud sama summa eest teha kena korteri sissemaksu. Ometi nad ei kahetse midagi, sest armastavad elamusi. Veel tuleb saates juttu Verona mereäärsel promenaadil magamisest; kuidas jalgrattamatkal kümme kilogrammi juurde võeti; ehmatavast hetkest Poolas, mil Kätlyn arvas, et saab surma ja palju muud. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

Kui tekib arusaam, et töö pole see, mida eluaeg teha tahaksid, mida siis ette võtta? Kuidas seljatada uue ameti õppimise ning uuele töökohale mineku hirme? Psühholoogiline nõustaja Evi Štukert annab neile küsimustele vastuseid tänases Naistelehe podcastis „Mõttekoht“. Kui aastate eest oli kombeks, et inimene töötab kogu eluea ühe tööandja juures, siis tänapäeval on selline asi kadunud pigem minevikku. Ometi tundub nii uue ameti õppimine kui uuele töökohale minek hirmutav ning päris paljud jäävad seetõttu kindlaks juba tuttavale. Olemata seejuures rahul sellega, mida tehakse. Kuid mõnikord on ka selge, et ilma kannapöördeta elus ei saa. Üks selline olukord näiteks on see, kui tööle ei minda rõõmuga. Mis kannapööret tegema ajendab, millega uutele radadele suundudes arvestada ning kuidas üleüldse leida õige teeots, sellest värskes saates räägimegi psühholoogilise nõustaja Evi Štukertiga, kes on elus mitmeid kannapöördeid ette võtnud. Vestlust juhib Naistelehe toimetaja Silja Paavle.

Mis puudutab jalgpallilist poolt, siis pole FC Reaal kunagi olnud liiga edukas. On olnud hooaegu, mille on meeskond lõpetanud lausa Eesti liigapüramiidi viimasel kohal. Ometi mängitakse vutti lausa neljandat kümnendit järjest, kõigil on endiselt väga tore ja meeskonnast on läbi käinud suur hulk tuntud nägusid! „Kolmanda poolaja“ taskuhäälingus käis Reaali tegemistest rääkimas endine Õhtulehe sporditoimetuse juht Kaarel Täll, kes on meeskonnas alates 2005. aastast. Kuigi Täll polnud päris klubi tekkimise juures, siis oli ta sellele ikkagi piisavalt lähedal, et rääkida ka klubi sünnist. Seejärel liikusime kronoloogiliselt ajas edasi: kui klubi 2008. aastal kümnendat sünnipäeva tähistas, siis mängiti A. Le Coq Arenal FC Floraga ja kaotati 2 : 14. Eesti Jalgpalli Liidu (ja toonase FC Flora) presidendi Aivar Pohlakuga saadi üldse väga hästi läbi, sest - nagu Täll ütles - Aivarile meeldivad pikkade juustega tüübid ja nii on ta osalenud erinevates klubi tehtud üritustes. Näiteks on Pohlak käinud koos Arno Pijpersiga nende korraldatud turniiril autasustamas. Aastate jooksul on Reaalist läbi käinud ports tuntud näitlejaid, muusikud ja muid toredaid kultuuritegelasi. Ja Tälli sõnul on lootust, et kui vennad Anierid kõrgemal tasemel palliveeretamise lõpetavad, siis tõmbavad ka nemad selga just FC Reaali särgi.

Ma usun, et Madeleini nime on enamvähem kõik kuulnud ja pilti väikesest blondide õlgadeni juuste ja suurte roheliste silmagega tüdrukust teavad paljud. Väike 4aastane tüdruk rööviti 2007 aasta mais Algarves, Portugalist, kus tema perekond puhkusel oli. Mida nii paljud võib-olla ei tea, on see,et Braunschweigi prokuratuur Saksamaal on tänaseks süüdlase leidnud ja talle ka süüdistuse esitanud. Kas tõesti leiab Madeleini röövimise lugu 15 aastat hiljem lahenduse? Instagram: @kurjategijajakaristus_podcastE-mail: kurjategijajakaristus@gmail.comMuusika: zapsplat

Üle 90 protsendi brittidest olid seni elanud terve oma elu kuninganna Elizabeth II valitsemisajal. Neist paljude jaoks viib ajastu lõpp maapinna mõneks ajaks jalge alt. Ajakirjanikud Indrek Lepik ja Herman Kelomees arutavad, millised on kuningas Charles III lootused säilitada monarhia senine staatus. Muljeid Londonist jagab sealne Eesti suursaadik Viljar Lubi.

Rasmus Voolaid ja Hindrek Pärg on taaskord eetris Milanost ja esmakordselt on põhjust ka rõõmustada – Eesti alistas Suurbritannia ja EM-finaalturniiril nullipoisiks ei jää. Ometi on teisipäevases saates kõige rohkem sarkastilisi nalju ja iroonilisi kommentaare. Eestist sai esimene Balti riikide koondis, mis sai tänavusel EM-finaalturniiril võidu kätte. Räägime Eesti fännide suurepärasest toetusest ja keda nad toetasid Kreeka-Ukraina kohtumises. Samuti räägime paarist Eesti võtmekohast Suurbritannia vastu ja Jukka Toijala räägib koondise teisipäevasest kaitsetööst ja motivatsioonist (00.16 – 08.44) Veel räägime ka Suurbritannia koondisest, miks nad osutusid nii kehvaks ja mida Eesti oskas oskuslikult ära kasutada (8.45 – 11.47). Saate viimases osas seame pilgud lähitulevikku. Sõltumata Horvaatia-Itaalia tulemusest, tuleb turniiri viimases kohtumises neljapäeval minna vastamisi Kreekaga. Mida sellest vastasseisust oodata, kas Giannis mängib ja kas tegelikult saab Eesti senist finaalturniiri pidada õnnestunuks? (11.48 – 23.51) Head kuulamist!

„Üks suhete varjukülg on emotsionaalne väärkohtlemine – meie ümber igapäevaselt levinud nähtus, millega me oleme kahjuks väga harjunud,” nendib tänases Naistelehe podcastis Mõttekoht psühhoterapeut ja enesearengunõustaja Eeva-Liisa Vahtra, et suhetes on ka külgi, mis ei pruugi inimeste ellu rõõmu tuua. Emotsionaalne väärkohtlemine jääb sageli varju ka seetõttu, et erinevalt füüsilisest väärkohtlemisest pole see silmaga nähtav. Ning kuigi hea vaimse tervise olulisusest räägitakse viimasel ajal palju, siis emotsionaalsest väärkohtlemisest väga mitte. Ometi on just sellel Eeva-Liisa sõnul inimese elule väga suur mõju, ka tema füüsilisele ja vaimsele tervisele. Mida tähendab täpsemalt emotsionaalne väärkohtlemine, kuidas seda argipäevas ära tunda, kes suurema tõenäosusega selle ohvriks satuvad, kuidas seda ennetada ning mida teha seda märgates, sellest värskes saates räägimegi. Vestlust juhib Naistelehe toimetaja Silja Paavle.

Mässi sõnul on lõpparuanne piisavalt detailne ega jäta ühtki põhjust lahti selgitamata, miks Estonia põhja vajus. Ometi on selles aruandes üks suur puudus, mis aastate vältel on kütnud kirgi ja loonud võimaluse välja mõelda vandenõusid. Sellest laevaarheoloog saates ka räägib. Lisaks saame teada, mille poolest on Estonia hukk sarnane soomuslaev Russalka hukuga, mis uppus 101 aastat enne Estoniat. Miks me võtsime ette Estonia huku ja selle aruande? See on teadmine, mis vajab üle kordamist ja rääkimist vajab ka see puudus, mille kõrvaldamiseta, nagu arvab Mäss, jäävadki vandenõud tekkima ja oma elu elama. Saatejuhid Ainar Ruussaar ja Marek Strandberg.

„Keskendusin laste aitamisele, kuid iseennast jätsin tagaplaanile. Ühel hetkel tekkis läbipõlemine,“ rõhutab tänases Naistelehe podcastis Mõttekoht lasteterapeut ja kogemusnõustaja Rita Kaup-Kaljuvee elust erivajadustega laste emana, et hästi oluline on leida ka iseenda jaoks aega. Rita ei ole kunagi kurtnud, et tal on raske ning on võtnud magamata öid ja kõiki oma kolme erivajadusega lapse eest hoolitsemisega seonduvaid probleeme kui mööduvat nähtust. Ta on isegi naljaga pooleks öelnud, kuidas igatses lapsena arstiks saada ja nüüd andis elu talle võimaluse. „Palju kergem on oma last mõista, kui oled käinud tema erivajadusega seonduval kursusel,“ lausub Rita, kes on oma kolme erivajadusega lapse kõrvalt leidnud jõudu õppida ka lasteterapeudiks ja kogemusnõustajaks. Ometi on tema elus olnud ka nii raskeid päevi, mil ta mõtles tõsiselt, et tema perel oleks ilma temata lihtsam. Ühtäkki tajus ta, et see ei ole õige, sest emana on tal laste kasvatamiseks kohustus ning Rita sai spetsialistide toel raskest hetkest aru. „Me kõik väsime. Me kõik oleme ju ainult inimesed,“ ütleb ta, et see on igati loomulik ning abi otsimist ei tohi karta. Milline on olnud Rita teekond erivajadustega laste kõrval, mida tema soovitab silmas pidada, et tundmatul teekonnal karide vahel triivides ellu jääda, kuidas leida üles varjatud ressursid ning kust üldse erivajadustega laste vanemad abi võiksid leida, sellest tänases podcastis Mõttekoht räägimegi. Vestlust juhib Naistelehe toimetaja Silja Paavle.

Maikuu alguse seisuga oli Töötukassas töötuna arvel 115 Ukrainast põgenenud medõde ja 74 arsti. Et meie raviasutustes erialast tööd saada, see nõuab neilt mitmeaastast täiendõpet. Ometi oleks meie haiglatesse kohe vaja juurde sadu õdesid.

Podcastil „Jalgrattapalavik“ on külas isa ja tütar, avatud olekuga Marek Sander ning Laura Lizette Sander. Veel juunioride klassi kuuluv Laura Lizette on valitsev täiskasvanute Eesti meister eraldistardiga sõidus, 2019. aastast on tal ette näidata medal Euroopa noorte olümpiafestivalilt. Omavanuste hulgas kõva tegija. Marek on rohkem teada-tuntud suusaringkondades, ent jalgrattasport on piltlikult öeldes teine armastus. Okei, võib-olla kolmas. Ise harrastajana aastaid rattamaratone ja -rallisid sõitnud. Puhtalt isa veenmise ja utsitamise toel sattus rattaspordiga sina peale ka Laura Lizette. Algus oli keeruline, võttis vahel pisaragi silma. Ometi, hakkas meeldima. Entusiastlik ja nõudlik isa kogu aeg saatjaks. Kindla plaani järgi, läbimõeldult tippspordi poole. Seni on kõva panustamine tulemust ja edu toonud. Mullu jõudis Laura Lizette tiitlivõistlustel kolm korda 20 parema hulka. Ootused olid suuremad, kuid suvine haigus jättis oma jälje. Tänavu juunioride rahvuste karikal, ühepäevasõidul Gent-Wevelgem 2. koht. Ajalooline poodium. Esimene eestlanna, kes juunioride vanuses sedavõrd kõrgele küündinud. Aga isa on otsekohene, see kõik ei maksa: „Tänavused juunioride tiitlivõistlused on õige eksami aeg. Kõik eelnev on olnud põhikool. Juunioride tiitlivõistlustel jagatakse lepinguid. Eksam noortetööle, mida sa oled teinud. See ei näita küll otseselt, kus sa täiskasvanuna võiksid maailmas olla, aga sellega luuakse alus tulevasteks aastateks. Julgen öelda, et jõuda naiste jalgrattaspordis maailma tippu ei ole maailma kõige raskem ülesanne.“ Mida Marek selle all mõtleb? Naiste jalgrattasport on tõusutrendis. Sinna panustatakse, sponsorid soovivad meeste tiimide kõrval näha ka kõrgel tasemel naiste tiime, auhinnarahasid jõudu mööda ühtlustatakse. Tundub olevat hea aeg pildile kerkida. Mis sellel hooajal Laura Lizettel veel ees seisab ja millised on tulevikuplaanid? Kas profitiimid juba koputavad uksele ja soovivad endaga siduda? Saates on ka Shimano plokk ning küsimusmäng. Eelmise saate küsimusmängu auhinna, kaks tasuta pääset Gravel Grinder Estonia rattasõidule, võitis Erik Aibast. Palju õnne! Võitjaga võetakse ühendust.

Saatekülalised Mihkel Kunnus ja Jaanus Sooväli. Saatejuht Hardo Pajula. "Võib-olla te teate, et ma olen suur Nietzsche austaja. Nietzsche kritiseeris väga teravalt dogmaatilist kristlust, iseäranis institutsioonidesse tardunud kristlust. Samas on Nietzsche väga paradoksaalne mõtleja. Ta ei uskunud näiteks, et teadusrevolutsioon oleks saanud juhtuda ilma kristluseta, täpsemalt ilma katoliikluseta. Nietzsche arvas, et tuhande aasta vältel olid eurooplased harjunud nägema ja tajuma ümbritsevat maailma kõikehõlmavas ja sidusas, kindlatest aksioomidest tuletatud mõtteraamistikus. Nietzsche uskus, et katoliiklik arusaam elust ja ajaloost lõi sellise vaimulaadi, mis oli võimeline omaenda dogmaatilisest vundamendist lahti ütlema ning pühenduma seejärel loodusseaduste tundmaõppimisele. Nietzsche uskus, et mingis mõttes sooritas kristlus enesetapu. Katoliiklus oli väga pika aja vältel püüdnud häälestada kristlasi elama lähtuvalt tõest, seda muidugi raamides, mida inimloomuse rikutus talle jättis. Kristlusest välja kasvanud tõetaotlus pöördus viimaks omaenda juurte vastu. Lääne ühiskond ärkas üles ja ei suutnud enam aru saada, kuidas ta küll kõike seda oli uskunud. Täpselt nii nagu me ärkame ühel päeval ja ei suuda järsku enam mõista, miks me jõulude ajal kuuse tuppa toome. Ometi oleme seda kaua aega teinud ja sellel traditsioonil on oma tagamaa. Rituaalid elavad oma põhjused pikalt üle," kõneleb Jordan Peterson klipis "[Kristlus suri omaenda käe läbi](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLqEG2tXulE&t=1s)", mille ma lõikasin 2018. aasta suvel tema Esimesele Moosese raamatule pühendatud [loengusarjast](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL22J3VaeABQD_IZs7y60I3lUrrFTzkpat). Eelmisel reedel (18. märtsil) salvestasime Tartus Mihkel Kunnuse ja Jaanus Sooväljaga vestluse Friedrich Nietzschest ja Jordan Petersonist. Nietzschest rääkisime samas koosseisus möödunud aasta oktoobris peetud vestluses "[Apolloni ja Dionysose vahel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srqNyJbQb-c&list=PLhpEK-_b7mfHDxAx9Oncmkc556IRanB9n&index=131)". Petersonist rääkisime pikemalt Mihkli naise Kärdi ja Aleksander Eeri Laupmaaga jaanuari lõpus salvestatud saates "[Prohvet preeriast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqwlSKO1V2I&list=PLhpEK-_b7mfHDxAx9Oncmkc556IRanB9n&index=141)".

Kuuenda Vea toimetus avaldab, kuidas neist said NBA eksperdid ja milline tiitlita meeskond võtab järgmiseks NBA tiitli. Ardo, Erki, Henri ja Otto võtsid ilusate kevadpäevade saabumise puhul ette Kuuenda Vea kuulajate kirjad toimetusele. Neid oli kogunenud õige mitu ja arvestades toimetuse viivitust vastamisega, otsustasime neile vastata põhjalikumalt. Kusjuures palun saatke kirju edasi, sest andsime lubaduse, et edaspidi vastame neile saadete käigus. Saate esimeses kolmandikus rääkisime päevakajalist juttu, sest play-off'id lähenevad ja NBAs juhtub alati pööraseid sündmusi. Saate teises osas rääkisime lahti oma fanaatilised NBA teekonnad - kui palju aega me iga nädal NBAle pühendame ja miks me NBA juurde alati jääme. Saate lõpuosas analüüsisime Russell Westbrooki küsimust LAs, NBA treenerite mõju mängule ning millise NBA klubi igaüks meist ära ostaks, kui raha oleks. Tegime ka pakkumisi, kes on järgmine tiitlita NBA linn, kes tiitlijoovastust maitsta saab. Küsimusi saatke endiselt aadressile kuuesviga@gmail.com või otse Kuuenda Vea Instagrami DMidesse. --- Mis on “Kuues Viga”? Korvpall24 ja Optibet toovad teieni Eesti parima NBA podcasti.

"Võib-olla te teate, et ma olen suur Nietzsche austaja. Nietzsche kritiseeris väga teravalt dogmaatilist kristlust, iseäranis institutsioonidesse tardunud kristlust. Samas on Nietzsche väga paradoksaalne mõtleja. Ta ei uskunud näiteks, et teadusrevolutsioon oleks saanud juhtuda ilma kristluseta, täpsemalt ilma katoliikluseta. Nietzsche arvas, et tuhande aasta vältel olid eurooplased harjunud nägema ja tajuma ümbritsevat maailma kõikehõlmavas ja sidusas, kindlatest aksioomidest tuletatud mõtteraamistikus. Nietzsche uskus, et katoliiklik arusaam elust ja ajaloost lõi sellise vaimulaadi, mis oli võimeline omaenda dogmaatilisest vundamendist lahti ütlema ning pühenduma seejärel loodusseaduste tundmaõppimisele. Nietzsche uskus, et mingis mõttes sooritas kristlus enesetapu. Katoliiklus oli väga pika aja vältel püüdnud häälestada kristlasi elama lähtuvalt tõest, seda muidugi raamides, mida inimloomuse rikutus talle jättis. Kristlusest välja kasvanud tõetaotlus pöördus viimaks omaenda juurte vastu. Lääne ühiskond ärkas üles ja ei suutnud enam aru saada, kuidas ta küll kõike seda oli uskunud. Täpselt nii nagu me ärkame ühel päeval ja ei suuda järsku enam mõista, miks me jõulude ajal kuuse tuppa toome. Ometi oleme seda kaua aega teinud ja sellel traditsioonil on oma tagamaa. Rituaalid elavad oma põhjused pikalt üle," kõneleb Jordan Peterson klipis "Kristlus suri omaenda käe läbi" [1], mille ma lõikasin 2018. aasta suvel tema Esimesele Moosese raamatule pühendatud loengusarjast [2].Eelmisel reedel (18. märtsil) salvestasime Tartus Mihkel Kunnuse ja Jaanus Sooväljaga vestluse Friedrich Nietzschest ja Jordan Petersonist. Nietzschest rääkisime samas koosseisus möödunud aasta oktoobris peetud vestluses "Apolloni ja Dionysose vahel" [3]. Petersonist rääkisime pikemalt Mihkli naise Kärdi ja Aleksander Eeri Laupmaaga jaanuari lõpus salvestatud saates "Prohvet preeriast" [4].Head uudistamist!H.———————————————[1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLqEG2tXulE&t=1s[2] https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL22J3VaeABQD_IZs7y60I3lUrrFTzkpat[3] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srqNyJbQb-c&list=PLhpEK-_b7mfHDxAx9Oncmkc556IRanB9n&index=131[4] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqwlSKO1V2I&list=PLhpEK-_b7mfHDxAx9Oncmkc556IRanB9n&index=141 See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Tänases osas viin teid Soome ja tahan rääkida loo Soome ühest jõhkraimast kuriteost, mis aastal 2006 kogu Soomet vapustas. Tegemist oli ühe pildiraamatu perekonnaga, neil oli suur maja, laps, koer ja head töökohad. Ometi juhtus nende tütre teise sünnipäeva ööl midagi kohutavat, kus nende tütar kaotas ühe oma vanematest. Mis täpsemalt juhtus, sellest kuulete uues osas. Instagram: @kurjategijajakaristus_podcastE-mail: kurjategijajakaristus@gmail.comMuusika: zapsplat

Tänase saate külaline Annika Kiili jutustab Kanaaride saarestikus asuvast La Palma saarest. La Palmat nimetatakse La isla bonita ehk ilus saar. Annika kinnitab, et La Palma tõepoolest paistab silma oma mõnusa ilma, rohkete banaanipõldude ning lopsaka ja erilise loodusega. Eriti armastavad sinna reisida just loodusehuvilised, sest avastamist on palju. Muuseas, La Palmal asub ka üks Euroopa kõige päikselisemaid linnu, Tazacorte. Ometi pole La Palma saar üldse nii populaarne ja tuntud võrreldes teiste Kanaari saartega. Saates mõtiskleb Annika, miks see nii võib olla. Ja kuidas üldse on kõige mõistlikum La Palmale reisida? Loomulikult ei jää puutumata ka möödunud aasta lõpul pursanud Cumbre Vieja vulkaani temaatika. Annika räägib, mis tunne oli vulkaani ülilähedalt näha, kuidas kohalikud suhtusid vulkaaniturismi, banaanipõldude hävinemisest, koerte ja inimeste päästmisest ning palju muud. Vestlust juhib Liina Metsküla.

Saatekülalised Rein Munter ja Mai-Liis Napa. Saatejuht Hardo Pajula. Saade veest. "Pandora laeka avas Prantsuse immunoloog Jacques Benveniste (1935—2004), kes tuli 1980-ndatel aastatel välja väitega, et veel on mälu, s.t omadus salvestada teatud ajaks välismõjutuste tagajärjel struktuuris tekkinud muutusi. Täpsemalt väljendudes võib vee mäluks nimetada talle omistatud võimet "mäletada" vees lahustunud aineid isegi pärast lõpmatut lahjendamist," kirjutab TTÜ emeriitprofessor Rein Munter möödunud aastal ajakirjas Akadeemia (nr 11) ilmunud artiklis "Kas vesi võib mäletada?".Benvenistele endale sai laeka kaane kergitamine saatuslikuks. Tema 1988. aastal ajakirjas Nature ilmunud artikkel kutsus esile establishment'i vastulöögi mille tagajärjeks oli see et üks Prantsusmaa tolleaegseid tippimmunolooge kaotas oma labori rahastuse ja reputatsiooni (võib-olla mitte just selles järjekorras). Ortodoksia vasturünnakut juhtis Nature peatoimetaja John Maddox keda mõned aastad varem Benveniste saatust jaganud Rupert Sheldrake on iseloomustanud kui "tulihingelist ateisti ja dogmaatilist materialisti" [1].Ometi ei ole vee mälu teema teadusest vahepeal kuhugi kadunud. Reinu artiklist võib lugeda et viimastel aastatel on sellest ühes või teises vormis rääkinud mitmed väljapaistvad õpetlased sealhulgas Nobeli auhinna laueraadid Kurt Wüthrich Luc Montagnier ja Brian Josephson.Tänane saade ongi pühendatud vee mälule Benveniste afäärile ja kõigele sellele mis Pandora kujundlikus karbis veel peidus võib olla [2].Rein pakkus teise vestluskaaslasena välja oma tütre Mai-Liis Napa kes on eesti keelde tõlkinud üle 20 raamatu kaasa arvatud Jaapani kirjamehe Masaru Emoto New York Timesi bestselleriks tõusnud raamatu "Vee sõnumid" [3].Ootan seda vestlust suure põnevusega.

Ei ole võimalik olla üksinda kodus, sest meie pesad on täis imetillukest elu. Ka inimene ise on justkui ökosüsteem täis baktereid ja neid karjatavaid viiruseid, just nagu kõik teisedki loomad. Ometi kipume end loodusest eraldiseisvana tajuma, mistõttu ei märka ega hinda elu imet enda sees ja ümber. “Siin Tartu” värskes osas avame oma silmad elurikkusele, uurime, kuidas selle tajumine on mõjutanud inimeste omavahelisi suhteid, müttame võpsikus ja pöörame uue lehekülje maavälise elu otsinguil, teejuhtideks andekad Eesti teadlased.Saatejuht, toimetaja, monteerija: Maarja Merivoo-ParroIllustratsioon: Joonas SildreOriginaalmuusika: Janek Murd
