Episode 211: In an era when misinformation spreads faster than facts, what does it mean to live truthfully — and why does it matter? Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada discuss the complicated role of truth in public life, personal relationships and digital spaces. The conversation, inspired by Kyte’s new lecture series, “The Search for Meaning,” begins with a look at how truth has been understood since the time of Socrates. The Greek philosopher famously urged his followers to “know yourself,” warning that an unexamined life is not worth living. Kyte argues that the practice of questioning — and being questioned — is more essential than ever in a society awash in self-deception and confirmation bias. But the discussion doesn’t stay in the ancient world. Rada and Kyte turn to today’s headlines, examining the turmoil at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, where political pressures and conflicting claims about vaccines have left many Americans unsure who to trust. “We should be able to figure out who’s right,” Kyte says. “But too often, we can’t.” The result, they argue, is a dangerous erosion of confidence in institutions central to democracy. The episode also considers how technology magnifies the problem. Social media algorithms, designed to keep users engaged, may serve up baseball highlights to fans harmlessly enough. But when those same mechanisms steer people toward partisan content, politics becomes entertainment — with cheering and booing replacing thoughtful engagement. “That’s not a spectator sport,” Kyte said. “It’s people’s lives.”

S alkoholem bychom měli zacházet velmi opatrně. Velké množství lékařských studií již prokázalo, že jeho bezpečná – byť sebemenší – dávka neexistuje. Pravidelná konzumace alkoholu navíc způsobuje vznik rakoviny. Přitom každý, pokud není přímo svým založením abstinent, si občas nějakou skleničku dá. Dr. Adam Kulhánek, MBA z Kliniky adiktologie 1. LF UK a VFN radí, jak včas rozpoznat začínající závislost.

Episode 210: Everyone has moments from the past they wish had unfolded differently. Some dwell on those memories, while others find ways to reinterpret them in order to move forward. But how far can people go in retelling their own stories before they risk losing sight of the truth? Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada begin the conversation with a simple piece of advice Rada found online — the idea that the past lives only in memory and can be reshaped. The phrase struck him differently than most internet platitudes, raising both curiosity as well as concern. Kyte pushes back against the claim that the past exists only in perception. He points out that facts remain, regardless of how people interpret them. Using examples ranging from family disputes to the Woody Allen film “Crimes and Misdemeanors,” Kyte underscores the danger of self-deception and the temptation to absolve ourselves of responsibility by revising history. Yet the discussion is not without hope. The hosts explore how changing perspective can help people heal. Forgiveness, they note, often requires reframing painful experiences in a way that releases the grip of bitterness. Examples from South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission and Rwanda’s post-genocide cultural performances illustrate how art and storytelling can create the distance needed for forgiveness to take root. The episode also examines the challenges families face when siblings recall childhood in starkly different ways. While such differences can fuel conflict, they also highlight how memory is filtered through emotion, circumstance and personal growth.

Türkiye'de ana muhalefet partisi CHP'ye baskı devam ediyor. CHP'nin İstanbul il yönetimi mahkeme kararı ile görevden alındı.

Robert Fico lieta do Číny, zatiaľ čo Slovensko stále nemá návrh nového rozpočtu a verejnosť ani nepozná nové dvojmiliardové konsolidačné opatrenia vlády. Ich predstavenie ohlásili a hneď aj odložili už niekoľkokrát. Podľa všetkého koalícia stále nemá dohodu. Premiér tak zatiaľ len ohlasuje pomoc s cenami energií. Má byť cielená a má ju vraj dostať 90% všetkých domácností.Rada pre rozpočtovú zodpovednosť ale medzi tým posiela do parlamentu správu a konštatuje, že vláda pri manažovaní našich peňazí porušila ústavný zákon, nedodržiava sankcie dlhovej brzdy a smeruje Slovensko k ďalšiemu rastu našich dlžôb. Ak chce vláda splniť svoje sľuby, opatrenia na ozdravenie našej ekonomiky nás podľa Rady nebudú stáť dve, ale takmer tri miliardy eur.Čo to teda znamená? Ako vláda porušila ústavný zákon a čo mala vlastne robiť? Čo sa stane ak ďalšia multimilardová konsolidácia nebude úspešná? Čo hrozí našej ekonomike a našim vlastným peňaženkám? A prečo kým v eurozóne nezamestnanosť klesá, na Slovensku mierne stúpla? Ako z toho celého von? Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s členom Rady pre rozpočtovú zodpovednosť Martinom Šusterom.

Ar režisoru Tomu Treini sarunājamies par 2022. gadā uzrakstītās Mariusa fon Maienburga lugas "Nachtland" iestudējumu Dailes teātrī.  Lugas intrigas pamatā ir glezna, kas atrasta un bēniņos un kuras autors, iespējams, ir viens no visu laiku iznīcinošākajiem diktatoriem, bet galu galā izrādās, ka izrāde ir par mūsu pašu attiecībām ar pārdodamām vai nepārdodamām vērtībām, materiālā un ētiskā aspekta konfliktu, attieksmi pret pagātni un senčiem, cilvēces lielākajām traģēdijām agrāk un tagad. Mākslasdarbs kļūst par testa priekšmetu, un vērtību tam piešķir nevis mākslinieka talants, bet stāsts par mākslinieku.  Sarunā ar Tomu Treini gan par šo visu, gan arī par radošās grupas cilvēkiem, kas veido izrādi, un kuru vidū ir augstu talantīgais komponists Aleksandrs Avramecs.  Toms Treinis: Sarežģītākais uzdevums bija, ka šis ir tāds materiāls, kurš no aktieriem pieprasa psiholoģiski precīzi izveidotus raksturus, kuri darbojas mijiedarbībā viens ar otru, un ar to mēs nodarbojāmies visu pavasari, kad sākām šo izrādi veidot. Maienburgs ir uzrakstījis atpazīstamus, arhetipiskus tēlus konkrētā situācijā, un šī situācija kļūst arvien sarežģītāka un komplicētāka, lugai attīstoties. Šis teksts pieprasīja to, ka man kā režisoram šajā reizē ir citādāka pieeja - man nebija jāaizraujas ar režisoristiskiem trikiem vai gājieniem, jo šeit bija nepieciešams panākt tādu sajūtu kā karstā dienā padzeroties koliņu - kaut kas burbuļojošs, atspirdzinošs, spraigs, tāds, kas nedaudz "iesit" pa galvu, un tajā pašā laikā tu jau esi iemests nākamajā notikumā. Sarežģītākais uzdevums ir izveidot šīs attiecības, lai tās būtu detalizētas, smalkas, dinamiskas, jo ļoti daudz vietas apdomāšanai vai refleksijai šī luga nepiedāvā. Tā vairāk piedāvā fantāziju skatītājiem, bet personāžiem ir ļoti būtiski būt situācijā klātesošiem. Ik pa brīdim lugā ir epizodes, kur liekas, ka notiek frontāla mijiedarbība ar skatītāju, un tad atkal citam ar citu, kas ir lugas pamatā un pārsvarā. Tev arī tā būs? Jā, mēs šo nepazaudējam. Maienburgs jau ir piedāvājis brīnišķīgu režisoristisku gājienu - ik pa laikam personāži runā ar publiku, uzrunā auditoriju, un šis gājiens attaisnojas, jo katram no personāžiem ir savs uzdevums attiecībā pret publiku, ko viņi mēģina apliecināt vai cenšas vērst skatītāju uzmanību uz savu patiesību, nevis kādu citu patiesību. Bieži vien viņi publiku izmanto kā vietu, kur dalīties ar kaut ko, kas viņiem šajā brīdī sāp attiecībā pret situāciju, kurā viņi spēlē kā aktieri. Mēs esam paturējuši šo principu un tas ir ļoti būtisks, jo tas jauc ceturto sienu. Mēs neskatāmies uz kaut ko, kas ir attāls no mums, bet tas tomēr ir stāsts par šodienas cilvēkiem, kas staigā mums apkārt. Šī situācija var piemeklēt jebkuru, kuram ir kāds mantojums gaidāms (smejas).

Episode 207: Walking is one of the simplest, healthiest, and most accessible things a person can do. It strengthens the heart, reduces stress, helps maintain a healthy weight and boosts mental well-being. Yet, in the United States, daily walking has quietly slipped out of many people’s lives. Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada dig into why that happened — and why it matters far beyond personal health. They trace the decades-long shift toward designing towns and cities almost entirely around cars, making short trips on foot less safe, less convenient and, in many cases, practically impossible. The hosts talk about how changes in school design, neighborhood planning, and even parental habits have contributed to fewer children walking or biking to school. They share striking statistics: in 1969, roughly half of U.S. children walked or biked to school. Today, it’s about 10 percent. And it’s not because more kids are taking the bus — parents are driving them, even for distances as short as a few blocks. The conversation also dives into the health consequences of this shift — from rising childhood obesity to declining mental health — and the irony that fears about letting kids move around independently are often exaggerated. Kyte shares data showing how rare stranger danger actually is, while Rada points out that cellphones now make unsupervised outdoor time even safer than in previous generations. They explore potential fixes, from “walking school buses” to car-free zones near schools to “Drive to Five” programs that encourage parents to park a short distance away and let kids walk the rest. But solutions aren’t just about sidewalks — they require changes in mindset, city planning, and community culture.

„Ležel jsem na posteli a čekal, jestli nádor praskne, když se ozval hlas: ‚Věříš?' A já jsem poprvé v životě promluvil v pravdě: ‚Ano, věřím. Věřím v sebe. Ve vnitřní sílu.' Ten hlas byl tak láskyplný, že mě to dodneška dojímá. Později jsem pochopil, že ten hlas jsem byl já sám – moje vlastní duše,“ říká člověk mnoha talentů Karel Svoboda v rozhovoru pro pořad Rada starších. 1. díl, 13.08.2025, www.RadioUniversum.cz

Episode 206: Bat flips. End zone dances. Trash talk amplified by social media. For some, these moments are pure joy — a celebration of hard-earned achievement. For others, they signal the slow erosion of something more important: the grace and humility once expected from those at the top of their game. In this episode, hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada tackle a simple but surprisingly complicated question: Do high-level competitors owe the public more than just dazzling performances? The two differ significantly in their perspectives. Rada leans toward seeing modern sports theatrics as largely harmless — part of the entertainment business that keeps fans engaged. Kyte, on the other hand, wonders if something meaningful has been lost and whether society should still expect athletes to embody certain timeless values. The conversation begins with a look at Joseph Epstein’s Wall Street Journal column lamenting the decline of sportsmanship. Epstein points to changes in professional sports — from touchdown dances to crowd noise meant to rattle opponents — as evidence of a cultural shift. From there, the hosts explore the tension between sports as entertainment and sports as a moral arena. Do we expect more from athletes because they’re in the spotlight or because their behavior influences the next generation? How do those expectations differ for a Super Bowl quarterback, a college standout, and a high school athlete representing their hometown? The conversation also explores individual expression and evolving norms in team dynamics, as well as whether excellence alone is sufficient. Along the way, the hosts reflect on role models and youth sports, as well as the unique way competition reveals character.

Episode 205: Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada dive into one of the year’s most unexpected viral moments — not to rehash the gossip, but to explore what it reveals about the culture we live in. You’ve probably seen the clip: a Coldplay concert in Boston, a playful moment on the jumbotron and two people who instinctively pull away from the camera. Within hours, internet sleuths had identified the pair as high-ranking executives at a tech company — and the fallout was swift. The CEO was married, but not to the woman next to him. Both resigned. Social media had a field day. But in this conversation, Kyte and Rada move past the memes and into the moral gray area: What drives the rush to judgment when private moments become public? Is there any room for compassion in a digital world that thrives on humiliation? They explore how public reactions often hinge less on what’s right or wrong and more on whether someone gets caught. Along the way, they dig into the deeper difference between being accountable to your own values and reacting to the judgment of others — a line that separates two powerful emotions often confused with each other. This episode also looks at how viral incidents pressure companies to act, regardless of policy or due process. Did the company involved really have no choice but to cut ties with its leaders? Does the fact that one of them was in charge of HR change the equation? In the end, Kyte and Rada ask: What does our fascination with these moments say about us — and how can we create a culture that values understanding over outrage?

Episode 204: Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada explore why so much of what we call “constructive criticism” fails — and what it takes to make it truly effective. Many of us dread the annual performance review, and with good reason. As Kyte points out, a well-run workplace shouldn’t save observations and advice for one stressful meeting a year. “Good coaching is constant,” he says. “If you have a good manager, you already know what’s working and what needs improvement, because it’s an ongoing conversation.” Feedback, he explains, should be specific, timely and delivered in the spirit of helping someone grow — not just checking a box. The hosts also draw lessons from outside the office. Rada shares a story of baseball great Chipper Jones, who was challenged early in his career by coach Don Baylor to correct flaws in his swing. Jones said he appreciated the directness because it showed someone cared enough to help him improve. That’s the mark of effective feedback — being clear, constructive and genuinely invested in the other person’s success. Of course, not all feedback lands well. Many people simply seek confirmation rather than honest critique. As journalist Jason Feifer has written, it’s crucial to tailor your approach based on where someone is in their process — whether they need a collaborator, a reactor or a refiner. The episode also tackles some tricky ethical questions: Does feedback always need to be gentle? Should it sometimes hurt? How do you know when to stop offering advice, especially if someone repeatedly ignores it? The hosts provide guidance on how to adjust your approach according to the person, the context and your intended outcome.

Actress and writer Lizzie Hopley was born in Liverpool and trained at RADA. As an actress, she has worked for the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Globe Theatre and recent screen work includes Black Doves and upcoming feature film Fackham Hall. As a writer, her radio sitcom Green won Pozzitive TV's Funny Dot Comp 2021 and TV series Bloody Betty is currently in development. She has written and appeared in over 90 Big Finish audio adventures including Dark Shadows and Doctor Who, and her Doctor Who audio play The Curse of Lady Macbeth won the 2022 Scribe Award. Lizzie joins me to talk about how her childhood love of writing and acting became a vocation, auditioning for RADA—twice—and how she ended up continuing to write even as a drama student, how learning to think of acting and writing as having a target changed her work, and a whole lot more. Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Lizzie Hopley shares her creative childhood and love for books. 04:56 Acting out movie scenes alone sparked early passion for performance. 08:45 Family encouraged storytelling, costumes, and imagination at home. 13:11 Difficulties pursuing creative careers; importance of following passion. 17:33 University and RADA experiences shaped her acting and writing path. 22:24 Writing plays began due to lack of desired acting roles. 27:29 Rewriting and feedback are crucial for improving both crafts. 32:54 Learning to target audience while writing; acting versus writing focus. 37:22 Acting training emphasizes focusing on scene partner, not yourself. 43:48 Importance of editors and learning to kill your darlings. 48:21 Confidence and caring less about others' opinions increases with age. 53:07 Acting and writing overlap at Big Finish; playing her own roles. 57:16 Big Finish's community impact, creative freedom, and professional development. 01:02:18 Target books and early Doctor Who fandom as creative inspiration. 01:07:04 Embrace varied interests; open doors for yourself in creativity.
