Der letzte Takt | Komödie mit Kammerorchester Ein kleines Kammerorchester in Reykjavik steht vor dem Aus – die staatliche Förderung wackelt, die Zukunft ist ungewiss. Da kehrt ein weltberühmter isländischer Cellist in die Heimat zurück. Seine Präsenz verspricht Rettung, doch schon bald entpuppt sich der gefeierte Virtuose als herrischer Despot. Beim entscheidenden Konzertabend eskaliert die Situation – was danach geschieht, wird an dieser Stelle jedoch nicht verraten. Stattdessen empfehlen wir euch den Podcast mit Lida und Sero. Dort erfahrt ihr, ob sich „Der letzte Takt“, der am 12. Juni in den deutschen Kinos startet, wirklich lohnt. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge vom Tele-Stammtisch!

Please enjoy this transmission that was recorded in Reykjavik, Iceland on the summer solstice and full moon conjunction. This conjunction of events lends itself to powerful openings in our subtle bodies and consciousness for rapid transformation and spiritual insights.  We connect to the Fire Principle through the Spiritual Being of the Sun also known as the Solar Logos.  This is a perfect time to make this connection as a reminder and resonance with our own Inner Light and spiritual consciousness that can light the dark for ourselves and others as we move forward in these accelerated times. Also by making this deep connection to our Inner Light we acquire the resources to help others and the planet during possible difficult times in the future. The transmission is guided by Source, the Solar Logos, Solar Angels, Elves, and the Spirits of Nature particularly in Iceland and your location.  We co-create with the spirits of the land and particularly the elves who are quite strong in the land of Iceland.  This combination of the Solar Logos and the Spirits of the Land assist in anchoring this Inner Light onto the planet.  This transmission also helps awaken and balance the elements in Nature to assist healing of the planet and a calming of the storms and natural disasters occurring across the globe.

*Disclaimer for today's conversation* We're going to touch on sexual assault on the show today and this may be triggering for some listeners. Just back from the Icelandic Writer's Retreat with Eliza Reid, Jann invites fellow writer, speaker, and activist Thordis Elva to join the show. She speaks about writing 'South of Forgiveness,' where she confronts her assaulter and heals the young sixteen year-old who's been holding a heavy secret. She reflects on corresponding with him to write the book, the global response to their story, and the importance of dialogue in changing the narrative around sexual violence. Thordis also discusses the importance of believing and supporting survivors of sexual assault. More About Thordis Elva: Thordis Elva is an Icelandic writer, speaker and activist. Her memoir, South of Forgiveness, which she co-authored with her perpetrator of sexual assault, is out in14 countries with the accompanying TED talk having been viewed over 10 million times. Her books, films and plays have won various awards and she was elected Woman of the Year for her contributions to gender-equality. As a public speaker, she has given talks at the UN, the European Council and the EU, to name a few. Her work has been published across four continents and has influenced national policy as well as the global dialogue. Thordis also works as a clinical hypnotherapist and is the founder and current chairperson of the Nordic Digital Rights and Equality Foundation, working to further human rights and democracy in online spaces. She resides in Reykjavik with her three children, including her miracle twins who sparked a social media movement when they were given a less than one percent chance of survival, and is currently writing their story.

This is a test episode that I hope you will enjoy as it is unedited and on the go. Tell me you heard it and what you think. If you don't like it, I will remove it and go back to the regular format. I hope you enjoy the test. I'm here for helping you travel. That's my goal. I want to bring world peace one step closer to reality through female travel. This episode is not scripted. There is no intro dialog. You can hear the story about my final destination in Iceland on my 90 day trip around the world. This is not the usual pattern, so let me know what you think about the message. This is a peek behind the scenes to how I took the wrong bus to the airport in Iceland. How I got on another bus, again wrong, and then in the rain, made it to the airport before anyone else on my flight. It was a small airport.  Please comment if you like this type of content. I have recorded other segments like it, showing authentic colors and stories from the recent travels of a solo woman in her prime. If this is your first time listening, please let me know. You can DM me today on IG or FB. This is a Step 5 adventure. Don't try this step without mastering the other four levels.

Marek Wolfryd (b.1989, Mexico City) lives and works in Mexico City. He is a multidisciplinary artist that explores the intersection of artistic and economic narratives in the context of culture, history, and society. Through a wide range of media, such as process art, readymades, sculpture, installations, video, and performance, Wolfryd reviews cultural movements and their aesthetic discourses, generally delving into micro-historical phenomena surrounding these great chronicles. Through long-term research projects, Wolfryd builds a conceptual framework that exposes the complexity of certain narratives that exist both within and outside the spheres of symbolic influence of the Western world. His works reflect and explore the means of mass production, consumer culture, copyright, authorship, and the mechanisms of art creation and distribution. His work has been shown in Aparador LA, Los Angeles, General Expenses, Mexico City, Tiro al Blanco, Guadalajara, Mexico, Chalton Gallery, London, United Kingdom, Aoyama Meguro, Tokyo, Japan, Museo de la Ciudad de Querétaro, Querétaro, Mexico, Ekkisens Art Space, Reykjavik, Iceland among others.

I ordinær episode 180 av Harde Mottak er den faste trioen tilbake i studioet og med drøyt to uker siden forrige episode er det nok å snakke om. Panelet kommer blant annet innom fotballtinget, årsmøtet i Sportsklubben, stortapet mot Kåffa og den nesten like store seieren mot Runar Kristinssons menn fra Reykjavik. Spørsmålsrunden er fyldig og minst like flyktig som alltid, før Trym avslutter episoden med en storslått kunngjøring. Podkasten produseres av Mottaket Media og inneholder annonsering.

Greetings from Iceland We are doing a special series of daily episodes that will capture highlights from our trip each day. We hope you enjoy this format and be sure to follow along with us over the next few episodes. Some links are affiliate links. See our disclosure. Day 3 Itinerary: Stay at Hótel Jökulsárlón - Glacier Lagoon Hotel - Enjoy breakfast and the sauna & hot tubs at the hotel before heading back to Reykjavik. Stop 1: Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon & Diamond Beach • Witness floating icebergs in the lagoon, sometimes with seals. • Walk along the black sand beach, where icebergs wash up from the lagoon. Stop 2: Fjaorarglhufur Canyon and Waterfall - this is more off the beaten path from the big tour groups Stop 3: Gas and snack in Vik Stop 4: Sky Lagoon in Reykjavik (book tickets ahead of time). We recommend doing the 7 step ritual and private changing rooms. We enjoyed going just before dark to see the lagoon in both the light and in the dark. It stays open late making it a perfect stop after a long driving day. Tips for the Day • Gas Up anytime you see a gas station, just in case. • Clothing: Layer up, bring waterproof gear, and wear sturdy waterproof shoes. • Batteries die quicker in cold weather so don't forget extra batteries for camera and phones.

Le Groenland a rendez-vous avec sa population, le 11 mars 2025, dans le cadre d'élections générales anticipées afin de remanier le Parlement du pays, à un moment où les relations avec le Danemark, l'Europe et Washington se trouvent à un point critique. La nation inuite est sous haute surveillance depuis que le président américain Donald Trump a renouvelé ses revendications sur l'île arctique, refusant d'exclure le recours à la force militaire pour s'en emparer. Pays semi-autonome dépendant du Danemark politiquement et financièrement, le Groenland reçoit de Copenhague une subvention globale de 500 millions d'euros par an. La question de l'indépendance totale est un sujet de débat. Des sondages récents ont montré que si la grande majorité des Groenlandais sont favorables à l'indépendance, peu d'entre eux sont prêts à compromettre leur niveau de vie pour y parvenir. Quatre fois plus grande que la France, l'île arctique est un enjeu géopolitique pour les États-Unis. Et fait l'objet de convoitises également de la part de la Chine et de la Russie. Avec plus de deux millions de kilomètres carrés, situé au nord-est du Canada dont il est séparé par 26 kms de détroit de Davis, le Groenland et ses 56.000 habitants sont positionnés géographiquement en Amérique du Nord, mais font partie de la sphère économique et juridique de l'Europe en raison de leur appartenance au Danemark, État membre de l'Union européenne. Regard sur ce territoire trop méconnu des grandes nations européennes.Invités :  Damien Degeorges, consultant basé à Reykjavik en Islande et docteur en Sciences Politiques, spécialiste du Groenland. Auteur de « Terres rares : enjeu géopolitique du XXIè siècle », Éd.

Greetings from Iceland We are doing a special series of daily episodes that will capture highlights from our trip each day. We hope you enjoy this format and be sure to follow along with us over the next few episodes. Some links are affiliate links. See our disclosure. Day 1 Itinerary: Picked up Rental Car from IceRental 4x4 1. Blue Lagoon - Book Tickets ahead of time - we booked the Premium Package that included a robe, 3 masks, and 2 drinks. We booked the 9 am time slot but arrived shortly before 10 and spent a couple of hours here but you can stay as long as you like. There is also food available. I had gotten an email about booking a transfer that the parking might be limited due but since we had the rental car this wasn't really a viable option for us. There was enough parking available when we arrived and also when we left due to people leaving but this may be more of an issue in the high season. Note: if you want to see the Blue Lagoon but not book a ticket you can go in to the cafe or shop and walk out to the viewing area to see the Lagoon. 2. Þingvellir National Park From Blue Lagoon we drove to Reykjavik and then on to Þingvellir National Park with a stop for lunch outside Reykjavik at Tommi's Burger Joint. Walk between the continental plates at Almannagjá Gorge. Visit Öxarárfoss Waterfall 3. Geysir Geothermal Area (50 min from Þingvellir) • Watch Strokkur Geyser erupt every 5-10 minutes. • See Blesi hot springs and mud pools. 4. Gullfoss Waterfall (10 min from Geysir) • View this massive waterfall from the lower and upper platforms. 5. We stopped in Fludir and had dinner at The HIll before driving to our hotel on the South Ring Road Where we stayed: Hotel Selja (near Seljalandsfoss and Gljufrabui waterfalls on the South road).

Whether you're planning your first trip to Iceland or you've visited before, knowing the do's and don'ts can make your experience smoother and more enjoyable. Iceland is a breathtaking country with unique cultural norms, unpredictable weather, and natural wonders that demand respect and preparation. I'll walk you through essential travel tips—things you should absolutely do to get the most out of your visit, as well as common mistakes to avoid. From driving safely on Iceland's rugged roads to experiencing the hot springs like a local, these insights will help you navigate your adventure like a pro. Let's dive into the essential do's and don'ts for traveling in Iceland! 5 Do's & Don'ts When Visiting Iceland 1. Do go to local pools, lagoons and upscale spas. Iceland's bathing culture is such a big part of life here and it's lovely to relax in a geothermally warmed hot tub. Most people think that when I say local pool that I mean some run of the mill uninteresting place but in Iceland, the local pools are lovely and budget friendly.For instance, the biggest one in Laugardalslaug has several hot tubs, including a saltwater one, an Olympic sized lap pool, a wading pool, a gigantic slide for kids of all ages (meaning adults too), a steam room, sauna, a cold dipping pool and lovely changing area. All of that is accessible at the cost of 1.389 ISK or $9.81 for adults, $1.41 for young adults aged 16-17 and free for children up to the age of 15. Every local pool has its own charm and there is almost 2 dozen just in the Reykjavík capital area and many around the whole country.Places like the Blue Lagoon, Sky Lagoon and other well known places to take a dip will cost a lot more. For instance, the Blue Lagoon is 9.900 ISK or about $70 for the lowest admission price for one adult. These places are extremely unique and I have enjoyed many visits to all of the lagoons and new baths around the country, so I don't discourage going, but just know that you have local options too that are great. Don't go into a pool, lagoon, or hot tub in Iceland without showering first One of the most important etiquette rules in Iceland is showering thoroughly, without a swimsuit, before entering a pool, lagoon, or hot tub. Iceland's geothermal pools and hot springs are an essential part of the culture, and maintaining their cleanliness is taken very seriously.Due to the country's limited use of chlorine in pools, washing with soap beforehand helps keep the water hygienic for everyone. Most public swimming areas have strict signage explaining the showering protocol, and some even have attendants ensuring compliance.Skipping this step is considered disrespectful to locals, and you might be asked to leave. Icelanders grow up with this rule, so while it might feel unfamiliar to visitors, it is essential for keeping the pools enjoyable for all. 2. Do Travel to different parts of the country when you visit Iceland is much more than Reykjavik and the Golden Circle. While the capital offers vibrant culture, history, and nightlife, venturing beyond reveals breathtaking landscapes, unique geological formations, and local experiences that make a trip unforgettable. The South Coast is home to stunning waterfalls like Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, black sand beaches, and the Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon. The Westfjords, a lesser-visited gem, offers dramatic fjords, bird cliffs, and remote hot springs. The North, particularly Akureyri and Mývatn, provides volcanic landscapes, geothermal baths, and excellent whale watching. The Eastfjords offer charming fishing villages and rugged mountains, while the Snæfellsnes Peninsula is often called "Iceland in Miniature" due to its diverse natural beauty. Expanding your itinerary ensures you experience the true essence of Iceland. Don't Only stay in Reykjavik While Reykjavik is a fantastic city with a lively atmos...

We've just wrapped up four episodes from my time in Iceland – a country that's as jaw-droppingly beautiful as it is expensive. But is there a way to travel this pricey paradise on a budget? That's the question I'll be tackling today with someone who knows a thing or two about affordable travel. I'd already heard the rumour, so in Reykjavik I set out to find out just how expensive it is and we start the episode back in Reykjavik where I walked into a supermarket to check the prices of random things. And then, I'm thrilled to welcome Matt Kepnes, aka Nomadic Matt, back to the podcast. He's one of the most well-known names in travel. He's the New York Times bestselling author of How to Travel the World on $50 a Day and the creator of the massively popular blog, NomadicMatt.com. Over the years, he's inspired millions to see the world without breaking the bank. And now, he's back with a completely revamped version of his iconic guidebook. Now called How to Travel the World on $75 a Day. It's not just an update – it's almost an entirely new book, reflecting how travel has changed since the pandemic, with fresh tips, destination advice, and even new ways to save.

Vi har netop afsluttet fire episoder fra min tid i Island – et land, der er lige så betagende smukt, som det er dyrt. Men er der en måde at rejse i dette kostbare paradis på et budget? Det er spørgsmålet, jeg dykker ned i i dag med en gæst, der ved en ting eller to om billig rejse. Jeg havde allerede hørt rygterne, så i Reykjavik satte jeg mig for at finde ud af, hvor dyrt det egentlig er. Vi starter episoden tilbage i Reykjavik, hvor jeg gik ind i et supermarked for at tjekke priserne på tilfældige varer. Og derefter er jeg begejstret for at kunne byde velkommen til Matt Kepnes, også kendt som Nomadic Matt, tilbage i podcasten. Han er et af de største navne inden for rejseverdenen. Han er New York Times-bestsellerforfatter til How to Travel the World on $50 a Day og skaberen af den enormt populære blog NomadicMatt.com. Gennem årene har han inspireret millioner til at se verden uden at sprænge budgettet. Og nu er han tilbage med en fuldstændig opdateret version af sin ikoniske guidebog. Den hedder nu How to Travel the World on $75 a Day, og det er ikke bare en opdatering – det er næsten en helt ny bog. Den afspejler, hvordan rejseverdenen har ændret sig efter pandemien og indeholder nye tips, opdateret destinationsrådgivning og flere smarte måder at spare penge på.

After World War 2, during the period of developed socialism, a rich ecosystem of Marxist intellectuals and academics emerged in the Georgian SSR. Universities and scientific institutes in Tbilisi, Kutaisi, Telavi, and Batumi were home to sociologists, philosophers, anthropologists, historians and other academics who took part in Soviet wide and international discussions and debates on different aspects of Marxist theory or Marxist inspired academic research. Since the collapse of the USSR in 1991, this "lost pantheon" of Georgian Marxism has been politically undermined, intellectually marginalized and socially forgotten. But who were these Soviet Georgian Marxists? What were their ideas? What were they writing about and researching in the period of developed socialism, the late USSR? And how did Soviet Georgian Marxists fit into Soviet-wide and broader international academic networks and debates? And why is reclaiming and reengaging with Soviet Georgian Marxists important today? On today's episode we welcome Bakar Berekashvili to begin this discussion on Marxism in Soviet Georgia, what it tells us about Georgia's Soviet experience and how it relates to academia, politics and more in Georgia since 1991. In the coming weeks we will be releasing a series of shorter episodes on individual Soviet Georgian Marxists....stay tuned! Bakar Berekashvili is Professor of Political Science and Sociology at the Georgian American University in Tbilisi. He has been a Visiting Scholar at the University of Iceland in Reykjavik, at the Institute of Contemporary History in Ljubljana, at the Masaryk University in Brno and at the Spanish National Research Council in Madrid. His research and teaching interests include qualitative research, critical sociology, Marxist thought in Soviet Union, Soviet Union (life and social order), post-socialist politics and society, ruling class, problems of democracy, social & political theory, political sociology, power and ideology.

If you're a long-time listener, you've probably heard me talk about my study abroad classes before. I take students all over the world to learn about sex and culture, and one of the many topics we explore is sexual fantasies, including how they are similar or different across cultures. For example, in my Amsterdam course, we hear from Marielle de Goede, who along with her colleagues at Company New Heroes conducted the largest ever study of sexual fantasies in the Netherlands and Belgium as part of a creative project titled Yes, Please! They interviewed over 400 people about their fantasies and subsequently published a Dutch-language book about their findings under the same name. This project also resulted in various theatre performances and a traveling erotic exhibition. The goal of the project was to celebrate the erotic imagination and to break the taboos surrounding our fantasies and sexuality by bringing together art, storytelling, and science. In today’s episode, we’re going to discuss Marielle’s project in more depth. Some of the topics we address include: How similar or different are sexual fantasy themes around the world? Why do Europeans seem to fantasize about cuckolding less than Americans? How might our political beliefs affect our fantasies? How do people feel about their sexual fantasies? What do we know about the origins of our fantasies? What’s the best way to share a fantasy with a partner? If you’re interested in learning more and joining me on a study abroad trip this year, this blog has the registration information for all of our locations this year — Amsterdam, Prague, Reykjavik, and Barcelona.

In today's all-new episode, our hosts Renato Mariotti and Asha Rangappa discuss the dangers behind a slate of horrendous executive orders signed during Trump's first week in office. In what was meant to be a show of "shock and awe," turned out to be just "shocking and awful." Subscribe to our Patreon here, where paid members will get access to exclusive portions of this show. patreon.com/reallyamericanmedia Also, listen in for more info on a chance to join our hosts on a scenic, North Atlantic Frontiers voyage from Copenhagen to Reykjavik. It's sure to be a wonderful trip with lots of great conversation: https://www.travelstore.com/group-travel/renato-mariotti-and-asha-rangappa-north-atlantic-frontiers-july-2025/. Or call the Travelstore at 1-800-777-6540 for more information. Asha, a National Security Law Lecturer at Yale and former FBI agent, along with Renato, an ex-federal prosecutor, dissect how Trump's recent executive orders could dismantle birthright citizenship, a pivotal part of America's identity that's enshrined in the Constitution. The order seeks to redefine children born to non-legal permanent residents as no longer "subject to the jurisdiction" of the U.S. Asha and Renato explain how this interpretation is in direct contradiction with established precedent, warranting strong legal challenges and public pushback. Our hosts also scrutinize Trump's executive orders beyond citizenship, including his immigration policies that have led to raids, hurt undocumented immigrants, and heightening tensions in cities across America. And we'll consider the possibility that Trump's tactics are more about creating fear—rather than implementing any actionable policies.  Be sure to join us next week as Renato and Asha unravel the complexities that don't fit into mere soundbites.

This week, our hosts Renato Mariotti and Asha Rangappa discuss Special Counsel Jack Smith's report, with a focus on its significance-or lack thereof-on the future political landscape. Subscribe to our Patreon here, where paid members will get access to exclusive portions of this show. patreon.com/reallyamericanmedia Also, listen in for more info on a chance to join our hosts on a scenic, North Atlantic Frontiers voyage from Copenhagen to Reykjavik. It's sure to be a wonderful trip with lots of great conversation. With Jack Smith's anticipated report on January 6th now public, we're here to help you sift through its layers and understand its impact. Asha Rangappa, a Yale national security law lecturer and former FBI special agent teams up with Renato Mariotti, a former federal prosecutor turned legal analyst, to explore what weight, if any, the report holds.  We'll look at the timing and method of the Jan 6 committee's unprecedented public examination, which stand in stark contrast to the secret investigations we're used to in criminal cases like these.  Since the facts were laid bare in real-time, and the very public hearings left little to the imagination. Which, as Renato and Asha dissect, is probably why the report didn't surprise the public with shocking revelations—as was seen with the Mueller Report—because most crucial details were already common knowledge. While the new factual revelations were sparse, Renato explains how the report shines a light on Smith's strategic and legal reasoning. His decision-making processes, prosecutorial choices, and thoughts on specific charges offer a window into the inner workings of his investigation.  Our hosts discuss the obstacles Smith faced, including witness intimidation, the proceedings in Aileen Cannon's court, as well as threats and potential destruction of evidence. And reflect on the inevitable scrutiny this report will receive as a part of American history.  Be sure to join us next week as Renato and Asha unravel the complexities that don't fit into mere soundbites.

Episode #359 – A Look Back on 2024  Hi I'm David Hirsch, founder of the 21st Century Dads Foundation and Special Fathers Network as well as host of the Special Fathers Network Dad To Dad Podcast.   Happy New Year and welcome to the first episode of 2025.   Tom Couch, the editor and producer of the SFN Dad To Dad Podcast, and I, thought we would do something special and provide a Look Back on 2024.   In total we produced 72 episodes, 52 were weekly episodes airing on Fridays and for 20 weeks from May through September we produced a series of short episodes with SFN Mentor Fathers who are also involved with the SFN Mastermind Group program.  We called them SFN Mastermind Group Monday Podcasts.    While we'd love to include a snippet from all 70+ episodes, to keep it more concise we decided to provide some highlights.   We hope you enjoy listening to this Look Back on 2024 Episode as much as we did producing it.   18 of the 2024 guests are authors.   Nine of the interviews included international guests, from the following seven countries: Australia, Canada, Cayman Islands, Cuba, Iceland, Israel and the UK.  Four of the guests are women.  Three interviews were with dads who lost a child including one who was an Israeli hostage killed by Hamas terrorists.  Two interviews included military veterans: a former U.S. Navy Seal and a U.S. Air Force Vietnam-era combat pilot.  And one of the guests is a Native American.   The episodes also spanned a very broad range of disabilities including; Autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Rare Disease, Dwarfism as well as those who are blind, deaf and missing a limb(s).    Here is a brief month by month recap with a clip from a select number of episodes.   In January, we aired four episodes including a dad from the UK and one from the Cayman Islands as well as with Jonathan Eig, father to three, including a son whose parents passed away at an early age.  Jon is also the best-selling author of biographies on: Muhammad Ali, Lou Gehrig, and MLK.   In February, we aired four episodes including one with Dave Jereb of Sydney, Australia, a Physical Therapist, co-founder of Move About Therapies and author of the book: Challenging The Story. We also did a two-episode story with filmmaker Bob Manganelli, whose 23 year old deaf son, very tragically committed suicide, while at Gallaudet University back in 2014.  In March, we produced five episodes including a two-episode interview with Keith Harris of Albuquerque, NM who is a retired business owner and father of four, including son Tim who has Down Syndrome.   He and Tim owned and operated the restaurant Tim's Place for five years.  Tim also went on to author The Book of Hugs, a children's book.  In April, we aired four episodes including one with Jonathan Bennett of Ontario

twin boys, one of which, Evan, is Autistic.   John and his wife, Janet, have been leaders in the disability community throughout TN and John has been involved with the Tuesday night Mastermind group for nearly three years.   We also interviewed Paul Briggs of Falling Waters, WV, who is the father of 38.  No this was not a typographical error or some misstatement.  Paul and his wife, Jeanne, have six biological kids and 32 adopted children including: 13 from Ghana, 10 from Ukraine, six from Russia, two from Bulgaria and one from Mexico.   In July, we did nine episodes including five Mastermind Group Monday interviews.  We also interviewed Kelley Coleman of Los Angeles, CA, a mother of two, a disability advocate, and author of Everything No One Tells You About Parenting a Disabled Child: Your Guide to the Essential Systems, Services, and Supports.   We also interviewed Sam Farmer of North Easton, MA who is the father of a son with Autism and later in life was also diagnosed with

the Vatican and President Biden at the White House.  They spoke at the United Nations in Geneva and at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.  I interviewed Jonathan on day 328 of their son Hersh's captivity and very sadly, just days later we learned about Hamas murdering six of the hostages including Hersh.   In October, we aired five episodes including one with Dr. Ruslan Vasyutin who is a single Ukrainian father to 12 year old daughter Alicia, who has Cerebral Palsy and unable to walk or talk.  They are currently living in Solihull, England after fleeing Kiev in February 2022
