Vi hjemsøkes av overskifter om at norske skolen er i "krise" og "fritt fall." Stadig får vi beskjeder om at norske elever blir dårligere og dårligere til å lese. Vi har derfor invitert en vaskeekte norsklærer inn i studio for å få en innblikk i hvordan livet er på bakken. Liridonna Qaka forteller oss om hennes reise fra Kosovo til Gjøvik, innom Universitet i Oslo til omsider en norsklærer i Osloskolen. Som lesehest selv forteller Qaka om hvilke grep hun gjør for å vekke leselyst hos sine lever, og hvilken lærer i sin tid åpnet llitteraturens verden for henne. I studio; Liridonna Qaka og Tayyeb Jolani (teknikk).

Thirty Novembers ago, Israel experienced one of the worst days in its short history. Yigal Amir, a Jewish religious fanatic opposed to the Oslo negotiations with the Palestinians, assassinated Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin as he left a peace rally in Tel Aviv. The consequences are still felt today, as the peace process is dormant and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is as severe as at any point since 1948. In this episode, Dan Ephron, the executive editor of Foreign Policy, delves into this dark chapter in Israeli history and why it matters now. In 1995, Ephron was a journalist covering the rally where Rabin was shot to death.  Recommended reading: Killing a King: The Assassination of Yitzhak Rabin and the Remaking of Israel by Dan Ephron

Ten minutes sitting on a bench in Sofienbergparken in Oslo, just listening to whatever happens and letting the world pass by.  Recorded in September 2025 by Cities and Memory. 

"The original field recording is sparse, with snippets of conversation, people walking, cycling and the occasional jogger passing by. I wondered how this would all sound if it were continually layered over in a continuous loop in the style of Frippertronics.  "I used an experimental dual looper to capture and over-dub the original sounds, with each channel using a different length of audio loop. I then used a modular synth to create some slowly evolving drones and pads, all driven by extremely slow modulation." Sofienbergparken bench soundscape reimagined by Barry Cooper.

I forbindelse med Singelfestivalen på Carls i Oslo, på Singeldagen, arrangert av Pitch-A-Friend Oslo, inviterte Marie med seg komiker Trine Lise (50) og PT Henrik (30) foran publikum på Storstua på Carl Berner. Det ble god stemning i salen når de snakket om dagens datingkultur. Når er man eksklusiv eller kjærester? Hvordan kommuniserer vi med hverandre? Er det verdt å date flere samtidig? Og hvorfor er det så galt å være singel? Er ikke det bare fantastisk — å leve livet og bestemme helt selv?Singeldagen stammer fra en kinesisk tradisjon hvor vi skal hylle det å være singel.

Norge gikk på et sviende nederlag i striden om ferrolegeringer med EU.Hvordan skjedde det, og hva betyr det for fremtiden til EØS-avtalen. Mens Norge diskuterer med EU, er det også tilløp til en ny debatt om norsk medlemskap her hjemme. Hvem har mest å tjene på den, og hvem får det vanskelig. DNs utenrikskommentator Simen Ekern er med fra Brussel i ukens episode. I studio i Oslo sitter politisk redaktør Frithjof Jacobsen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I denne episoden møter vi Bjørnulf Hafstad, forfatter av den ferske sakprosaromanen På sporet av sannhet - en filosofisk reise med Bergensbanen. Med bakgrunn fra teknologi, administrasjon, filosofi og idéhistorie – og med en trosreise som startet som ateist – tar Bjørnulf oss med inn i en annerledes tilnærming til apologetikk. På sporet av sannhet er lagt opp som en dialogfylt togreise mellom Oslo og Bergen, der hovedpersonen Gustav, preget av både livssmerte og akademisk suksess, møter en rekke mennesker som utfordrer ham til å stille de store spørsmålene på nytt. Hva kan vi vite sikkert? Kan tro og fornuft møtes? Og hva gjør egentlig livet meningsfullt? Gjennom Gustavs samtaler, hans indre refleksjon og hans møter med ulike karakterer, vever Bjørnulf inn alt fra postmodernisme og livsmening til Kurt Gödels matematiske innsikter og klassiske trosforsvarsperspektiver. Resultatet er en tilgjengelig, fortellende og tankevekkende introduksjon til kristen tro.

I denne episoden snakker Ingeborg Sivertsen Landfald med Ayse Koca, prosjektleder for "Kreativ skriving for talentfull ungdom", et samarbeidsprosjekt mellom Norsk barnebokinstitutt og Utdanningsetaten i Oslo.

Grimnes et skrivekurs for - og i samarbeid med - ungdom fra Osloskolen.Denne høsten er de i gang med en ny runde med skrivekurs for et nytt kull med ungdom, og i den forbindelse har vi tatt en prat med Ayse for å høre mer om prosjektet: Hvordan utvikles kurset i samarbeid med ungdommen selv? Og hva er ungdommenes reaksjon når de får høre at nettopp deres stemme er litterært interessant? Hvordan går de fram for å skape sin egen stemme?Ayse og Lise var også til stede under Nordisk barnebokkonferanse (NBBK) i september, hvor to av ungdommene, Benjamin og Angelica, også deltok på scenen. I denne episoden kan du høre et kort utdrag fra samtalen under NBBK.Denne episoden er produsert av Ingeborg Sivertsen Landfald og klippet av Bassa Dulo.---Takk for at du hører på Barnebokprat, en podkast fra Norsk barnebokinstitutt.

In this first instalment of our two-part special from the C40 World Mayors Summit, Cities 1.5 takes you inside the flagship gathering of the world's most ambitious urban climate leaders. We hear directly from mayors as they unveil this year's Offer of Action – a unified commitment that raises the stakes for urban climate leadership and pointedly challenges national governments to match their ambition with action of  their own, all on the eve of COP30. We also speak with leading climate experts and C40 partners to explore why cities remain the most effective engines for rapid, equitable decarbonization, and what they must do next to keep the goal of limiting global heating to 1.5°C alive. And crucially, funders share why they've chosen to invest in C40's global network, highlighting the proven impact of coordinated city action and the urgency of scaling it.Photo credit: ©Bernardo Jardim PhotographyFeatured:Sir Sadiq Khan, C40 Co-Chair and Mayor of LondonNick Reece, Lord Mayor of MelbourneGiuseppe “Beppe” Sala, Mayor of MilanYousef Al-Shawarbeh, Mayor of AmmanKeith Wilson, Mayor of PortlandDr. Nkosindiphile Xhakaza, Executive Mayor of EkurhuleniEduardo Pimentel, Mayor of CuritibaCaterina Sarfatti, Managing Director of Inclusion and Global Leadership at C40Haris Doukas, Mayor of AthensEirik Lae Solberg, Governing Mayor of OsloSøren Staugaard Nielsen, Managing Director of the Ramboll FoundationJo Jewell, Director of Social Responsibility Partnerships at Novo NordiskHon.

This conversation with Parul Jagdish (EP275), Thomas Schindler (LI) and Lars Lægreid (LI) is about the Oslo Project. The moonshot project for resourcing and liberating new imaginations for our world. Similar to the Manhattan project, compiling thousands of individuals across the world in the 40's, the Oslo projects aims to direct $400 bn towards regenerative futures. We spoke of dematerialisation, of what it means to have had luck, to integrate to move forward - combining science with other ways of knowing. We spoke of scale, lore, education. How curious it is that our hopes and dreams are so similar at the moment across political divides and walks of life. The invitation is for you to get involved. Longer term or in the series of gatherings that will be happening fall 2025/spring 2026. Come along.

No American runner made more noise in 2025 than Nico Young.The 23-year-old prodigy smashed the 5,000m American record, claimed his first national title, and battled the world's best in Tokyo. In June, he stormed through the Bislett Games in Oslo, running 12:45.27 for 5,000 meters, which was a new American record. Barely two months later, he claimed his first U.S. title at 10,000 meters in Eugene, clocking 29:02.12 to solidify his dominance on home soil. Then, on the world's biggest stage in Tokyo, Young placed fifth in the 10,000m at the 2025 World Championships, closing his breakout season in a dynamic way.Young's rise has been meteoric but methodical. A former NCAA champion from Northern Arizona University, he first stunned the sport in 2024 by debuting at 26:52.72 for 10,000 meters–an NCAA and American collegiate record–then qualifying for the 2024 Paris Olympics, where he finished 12th. Turning pro with Adidas that summer, he entered 2025 with sharper focus and the freedom to train through longer, uninterrupted blocks under coach Mike Smith in Flagstaff, Arizona.Now a national champion, world finalist, and record holder, Young owns personal bests of 12:45.27 (5,000m), 26:52.72 (10,000m), and 7:37.73 (3,000m). His performances are redefining what's possible for American distance runners, and he's doing it with trademark composure and humility.Tap into the Nico Young Special.  If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz
