I welcomed one of my hero authors, Michael Morpurgo, and his wife Clare, to Highclere Castle to talk about storytelling, history, the magic of reading, and the extraordinary charity they founded together — Farms for City Children.Michael shared how War Horse came to life and why understanding the First World War matters more than ever today. We recalled the unforgettable day Joey, the National Theatre's War Horse puppet, came to Highclere in 2014 — walking through the very library where Almina, my predecessor, had nursed soldiers back from the trenches a century before.Michael told the wonderful story behind Farms for City Children — how Clare, a childhood afternoon let loose near a Devon farm, courtesy of her father Allen Lane, founder of Penguin Books, sparked a lifetime's passion for the countryside, and how that passion became a charity that has given over 120,000 inner-city children a week of real farm life.We explored the importance of books and reading, handwriting, the friendship with Ted Hughes, the honest editorial partnership between Michael and Clare, and my own plans for a Highclere Literary Festival this October.We ended with Michael's dream summer evening guest: the radiant Audrey Hepburn.00:00 Welcome & Introduction02:10 War Horse & Joey Comes to Highclere06:30 History, World War I & Why It Still Matters13:15 The Origins of Farms for City Children21:45 A Real Farm — Not a Pretend Farm28:00 Highclere: Farm, History & the Fifth Earl33:20 The Power of Reading & the Literary Festival38:10 Writing by Hand, Ted Hughes & the iPad44:00 Editing, Marriage & Telling the Truth49:30 Dream Party Guest: Audrey HepburnTopics CoveredWar Horse & HighclereThe origins of War Horse and why Michael believes we must understand history to navigate the presentLady Carnarvon recalls the day Joey, the War Horse puppet from the National Theatre, came to Highclere in 2014 to mark the centenary of World War IHighclere Castle served as a real military hospital during World War I — Lady Carnarvon's predecessor, Almina, nursed soldiers back from the trenchesThe contrast with the fictional Downton Abbey and the very real human stories preserved in letters at HighclereHistory, War & ResponsibilityMichael reflects on why the First World War is so important — and how it directly caused the SecondThe role of individuals and political movements in triggering conflict, from Sarajevo to the rise of HitlerWhy Michael feels it is "timely" to revisit these lessons today, given the state of the worldSeeing War Horse in the theatre the night before recording — and what it still means to himFarms for City ChildrenClare's childhood inspiration: sent outside to explore as a young girl near a Devon farm, she fell in love with the countryside, animals, and the rhythm of rural lifeHer father, Allen Lane, founder of Penguin Books, instilled a love of the natural worldWhy Clare and Michael left teaching after realising they weren't reaching the children who needed them mostHow the charity started with one Victorian farmhouse in Devon and has since grown to multiple working farmsOver 120,000 children have now spent a week on a real farm — milking cows, feeding lambs, grooming horses, doing genuine workMeeting former "farm children" now aged 45 with families of their own, who say the experience never left themHighclere Today — A Living EstateFarming records at Highclere dating back to the 16th century;

Fast 68 Jahre lang war Franz Joseph Kaiser von Österreich. Für Generationen von Menschen war er weniger ein Politiker als eine Konstante – ein Mann, der scheinbar immer da gewesen war. Doch hinter der Uniform, den Orden und den berühmten Koteletten verbarg sich ein Mensch, dessen Leben von außergewöhnlich vielen Abschieden geprägt war.In dieser Folge von Habsburg to go! stehen wir im Wiener Hofgarten, dem heutigen Burggarten, unmittelbar hinter der Hofburg. Ein Ort des Rückzugs mitten im Zentrum der Macht – und damit ein passender Platz, um auf die letzten Jahrzehnte eines Herrschers zu schauen, der einen Menschen nach dem anderen verlor und dennoch bis zuletzt an seiner Pflicht festhielt.Wir erzählen vom Tod seines Bruders Maximilian, der 1867 in Mexiko erschossen wurde. Vom Drama von Mayerling 1889, bei dem Franz Joseph seinen einzigen Sohn und Thronfolger Rudolf verlor. Vom Tod seines langjährigen Vertrauten Erzherzog Albrecht. Von der Ermordung seiner Frau Elisabeth 1898 in Genf. Und schließlich vom Attentat von Sarajevo 1914, bei dem Franz Ferdinand und seine Frau Sophie getötet wurden – jenem Ereignis, das Europa in die Julikrise und schließlich in den Ersten Weltkrieg führte.Doch diese Folge handelt nicht nur von Verlust. Sie handelt auch von der Frage, wie ein Mensch mit Verlusten weiterlebt. Franz Josephs Antwort darauf war die Pflicht. Nach persönlichen Katastrophen zog er sich nicht dauerhaft zurück. Er stand auf, setzte sich an seinen Schreibtisch und arbeitete weiter. Akte, Audienzen, Entscheidungen – Tag für Tag.Was wir heute vielleicht als Resilienz bezeichnen würden, war für Franz Joseph vor allem eines: sein Verständnis von Verantwortung. Dabei verändert sich während seines langen Lebens die Welt beinahe vollständig. Als Franz Joseph 1848 mit gerade einmal 18 Jahren den österreichischen Thron besteigt, bestimmen Pferdekutschen das Straßenbild. Als er 1916 stirbt, fliegen Flugzeuge über die Schlachtfelder des Ersten Weltkriegs. Er erlebt Revolutionen, Solferino, Königgrätz, den österreichisch-ungarischen Ausgleich, wirtschaftliche Krisen, den Aufstieg neuer Nationalbewegungen und schließlich einen Krieg, der die Ordnung Europas zerstören wird. Und während um ihn herum Menschen, Gewissheiten und schließlich sogar die alte Welt verschwinden, bleibt Franz Joseph selbst bis zuletzt im Amt. Vielleicht liegt genau darin die besondere Tragik seines Lebens: Er musste sich von Bruder, Tochter, Sohn, Ehefrau, Freunden und Thronfolgern verabschieden – und wurde gleichzeitig selbst für Millionen Menschen zu jenem vertrauten Menschen, von dem sie sich eines Tages verabschieden mussten.Am 21. November 1916 stirbt Franz Joseph im Alter von 86 Jahren in Schloss Schönbrunn. Nur knapp zwei Jahre später existiert auch Österreich-Ungarn nicht mehr.Diese Folge von Habsburg to go! ist deshalb keine klassische Geschichte über Macht, Schlachten oder Politik. Sie ist eine Geschichte über Beständigkeit, Verantwortung, Verlust und die Kunst des Abschiednehmens.Und vielleicht passt sie gerade deshalb besonders gut an diesen Punkt unserer Reise: Denn auch wir nähern uns langsam der 100. Etappe von Habsburg to go!. Noch ist unsere Reise nicht zu Ende. Aber manchmal lohnt es sich, kurz zurückzublicken – auf die Menschen, die Orte und die Geschichten, die uns bis hierher begleitet haben.+++

It has been more than 30 years since the Siege of Sarajevo in Bosnia began. As the former Yugoslavia was falling Serb forces surrounded the city of Sarajevo, and bombarded the city daily. For nearly four years mortars and snipers gradually reduced the capital to ruin and its citizens to despair. It's believed nearly 12,000 people were killed and many were children. Lara Obrien traveled to Sarajevo in 2012 and became fascinated with some of the stories of survival during the siege and particularly how music became a lifeline.From our special summer archival doc series, this is Lara Obrien's documentary, The Art of War

Peter ist zurück vom Transcontinental Race, dieses Jahr zum ersten Mal von Nord nach Süd: Trondheim nach Kalamata, rund 4.500 Kilometer, vier Checkpoints, Selbstversorgung und eigene Routenplanung.Der Start ging schief. Peter wird am ersten Tag krank, verliert rund 15 Stunden in einem norwegischen Hotel und steht am Checkpoint 1 auf Platz 105. Am Ende kommt er als 14. in Kalamata an.Wir sprechen über die Vorbereitung mit Sauna-Protokollen und Cooling-Strategien für den Balkan, den Sattelwechsel eine Woche vor dem Start, Schlafblöcke von drei Stunden, Fährfahrpläne als Taktikfrage, eine nächtliche Irrfahrt durch einen Wald in Montenegro samt Friedhof als Schlafplatz, die alte Bobbahn von Sarajevo und die Hitze in Griechenland.Außerdem: warum Peter das Rennen trotzdem noch einmal fahren wil.

Hannah Lucinda Smith is a veteran foreign correspondent. Her new book Hinterlands explores whether hidden conflicts unfolding in little-noticed border areas might be shaping a new world order. In today's episode, she speaks with All Things Considered's Mary Louise Kelly about “overlooked” places caught between the Russian and Turkish spheres of influence and the West. They also discuss Smith's comparison between the political circumstances in Damascus in 2011 and Sarajevo in 1914 – and the dynamic nature of borders.Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

Hugh Hallman, Attorney, Educator, and former Mayor of Tempe, joins Seth in studio for the full hour to each a pastrami sandwich, discuss the 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Hugh shares the real history about Gavrilo Princip, the assassin, and how he ended up enjoying a sandwich at a deli in Sarajevo. This leads to a discussion about the consequences of failing to educate ourselves about our history and the principles of democracy. They also discuss the contents of the now-public personal diary entries of former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Anthony Fauci. Seth and Hugh highlight the need to understand the egotistic characteristics of great leaders like Alexander, Caesar, and Napoleon, and how they can threaten a democracy when seen in individuals like Dr. Fauci. They also discuss the failure of the education system to teach these essential lessons, leading to a generation of citizens who are ill-equipped to recognize the dangers of tyranny and the importance of civic virtue. The conversation also touches on the role of Dr. Fauci in shaping public opinion and the media's complicity in promoting his narrative, highlighting the consequences of failing to question authority and the importance of a free press in a democratic society.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Det Osmanska rikets mer än 600 år långa historia är tätt sammantvinnat med det kristna Europas historia. De osmanska härskarna betraktade sig själva som de gamla romerska kejsarnas arvtagare. Och både renässansen och reformation påverkades av osmanernas existens.Det Osmanska riket växte fram ur nomadstammar i Anatolien på 1200-talet. Osmanerna erövrade Bysan år 1453 för att bli ett multietniskt imperium som sträckte sig över flera världsdelar. Riket var som störst när det misslyckades med att erövra Wien 1683. Osmanerna rörde sig från tolerans och integrering av andra folk och religioner till exkludering och folkmord. Från spillrorna ut det Osmanska riket växte dagens Turkiet 1923.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Marc David Baer är professor i internationell historia vid London School of Economics and Political Science och en av världens främsta kännare av Osmanska riket. Han är aktuell med boken Osmanska riket.Osmanska riket, även känt som det Ottomanska riket, var en mäktig islamisk imperium som styrde över stora delar av Sydosteuropa, Mellanöstern, Nordafrika och Mindre Asien. Osmanska riket grundades i västra Anatolien mot slutet av 1200-talet av en stam Oghuz-turkar som skulle bli imperiets aristokrati, kända som Oserna. Dessa förde med sig en stark dynasti, den osmanska dynastin, som var kärnan i den framväxande staten. Osman I, som riket är uppkallat efter, var rikets grundare och första ledare.En av de mest anmärkningsvärda egenskaperna hos Osmanska riket var dess kulturella och religiösa mångfald. Riket omfattade människor från olika etniska och religiösa bakgrunder. Sultanerna var toleranta mot olika religioner och tillät sina undersåtar att utöva sin egen tro. Kristna och judar hade sina egna lagar och institutioner och bildade slutna samhällen inom riket.Osmanska riket hade både fredliga och konfliktfyllda relationer med olika europeiska länder. Å ena sidan var riket en viktig handelspartner och kulturell influens för västeuropeiska länder under renässansen. Å andra sidan var det också en ständig militärhot och orsakade stor oro bland européerna. Rikets expansion och belägringar av europeiska städer som Wien skapade en stark europeisk identitet och en vilja att motstå det osmanska hotet.Under 1300- och 1400-talen fortsatte det osmanska riket att expandera, och det erövrade stora delar av Anatolien och Balkan. Den bysantinska huvudstaden Konstantinopel belägrades och intogs år 1453 av sultanen Mehmet II Erövraren, vilket innebar det definitiva slutet på Bysantinska rikets tusenåriga historia. Denna händelse bekräftade det osmanska rikets status som stormakt.Rikets absoluta höjdpunkt nåddes under 1500- och 1600-talen under sultanen Suleiman den store. Dess största territoriella utsträckning nåddes dock år 1683 under sultanen Mehmet IV, då det sträckte sig från Wiens utkanter i nordväst till Aden längst ner på Arabiska halvön, och från Kaukasus i nordöst till Algeriet i sydväst.Inom rikets gränser fanns några av dåtidens viktigaste städer, inklusive Mekka, Medina, Jerusalem, Bagdad, Kairo, Alexandria, Damaskus, Aleppo, Beirut, Saloniki, Budapest, Belgrad, Sarajevo och Sofia. Denna stora rikedom bidrog till den successiva militära tillbakagång och det gradvisa ekonomiska och politiska förfall som drabbade Osmanska riket under senare delen av 1700-talet.Belägringen av Wien 1683 var det sista osmanska försöket att på allvar hota det kristna Europa. Belägringen hävdes av en polsk-tysk armé som kom Österrike till undsättning. Detta satte gränsen för osmanernas fortsatta expansion norrut i Centraleuropa.Bild: Sultan Selim III håller en audiens framför Felicityporten. Hovmän är sammansatta i ett strikt protokoll.

Ce qui n'était encore qu'une crise diplomatique devient alors un engrenage fatal. En un mois, toute l'Europe va s'embraser. Quelques semaines plus tôt, à Sarajevo, l'archiduc François Ferdinand, héritier du trône austro-hongrois, est assassiné par un nationaliste serbe. L'événement aurait pu rester local, mais les alliances, la méfiance, la course aux armements et les rêves de revanche sont prêts à exploser. Le 28 juillet, la déclaration de guerre autrichienne enclenche la première cascade. La Russie mobilise, l'Allemagne suit, la France s'y prépare, le Royaume-Uni hésite encore, mais plus pour longtemps. En quelques jours, les grandes puissances s'alignent comme des dominos, les unes contre les autres. À l'arrière, les foules applaudissent, on pense que ce sera court, que ce sera glorieux. Personne n'imagine quatre ans de boue, de gaz, de tranchées, de bombardements. Ce jour-là, l'Europe bascule dans ce que l'historien Jean-Baptiste Duroselle appellera plus tard le « suicide de la civilisation européenne ». Près de vingt millions de morts plus tard, un continent sera à reconstruire, des empires auront disparu et le monde ne sera plus jamais le même. Le 28 juillet 1914, la guerre commence officiellement et l'histoire à partir de là s'écrira dans la fureur et les cendres. A demain dans TIME SHOT pour une nouvelle Minute Histoire.

La Primera Guerra Mundial comenzó el 28 de julio de 1914, cuando Austria-Hungría declaró la guerra a Serbia tras el asesinato del archiduque Francisco Fernando en Sarajevo el 28 de junio de 1914. El sistema de alianzas europeo (Alemania, Rusia, Francia, Reino Unido) provocó una rápida escalada del conflicto en las semanas siguientes.

In this episode, Joel Junker sits down with Saša Mirković, author of The Inspire Code, to talk about freedom, the importance of trust and conflict, and how leaders can build teams that can run without them. Saša’s story doesn’t start in the boardroom. It starts in Sarajevo. He survived the siege of the city in the 1990s, served two years in the military, and came to the United States after the war. In 1998, he applied to 385 jobs. He got one reply. He eventually landed at American Express Financial Advisors, worked his way up to VP, and in 2006 started his own practice. Today, the Inspire Confidence Group spans multiple offices, alongside a leadership company and a tax firm. But the most important lesson in this episode came from a failure. In 2018, Saša’s business partner left the firm. Eighty percent of the team walked out with him. That was the moment Saša realized he had been talking about leadership without actually building trust. Why does trust matter so much for a team? Trust is the currency of leadership. You can’t lead without it, the same way you can’t run a business without money. And Saša is clear on where it starts: the leader gives trust first. It’s planted, earned, and renewed every day. Trust is also what makes healthy conflict possible. Saša describes problems like a beach ball. You see one side. Your teammate sees another. Strong teams fight the problem together instead of fighting each other. Joel and Saša also get into Slack and Flow, Saša’s framework for working smarter: eliminate half of what you do, delegate the rest to technology and to people who love that work, and protect real thinking time every week. It’s how his team doubled the business without adding headcount. Whether you’re a junior military officer preparing for your transition or a leader building your first civilian team, this one is full of ideas you can use right away.

Durante el sitio de Sarajevo en los noventa, la crueldad humana alcanzó un límite inimaginable. Mientras la población civil luchaba por sobrevivir bajo el fuego constante, un secreto macabro se escondía en las colinas. Millonarios extranjeros, movidos por el morbo y el dinero, pagaban exorbitantes sumas a las fuerzas serbobosnias para vivir una experiencia aterradora: cazar personas. Trasladados discretamente en helicóptero, estos "turistas de la muerte" recibían fusiles de precisión y elegían a sus víctimas entre niños, mujeres y ancianos que cruzaban las calles. Una pesadilla real donde la vida humana se convirtió en el trofeo de un safari atroz. Fueron llamados los francotiradores del fin de semana.

Susan Sontag (1933-2004) was an essayist, novelist, activist, film-maker, philosopher and teacher.

From Wikipedia: “Among her best known works are  On Photography, Against Interpretation, Styles of Radical Will, The Way We Live Now, Illness as Metaphor, Regarding the Pain of Others, The Volcano Lover, and In America.” From Wikipedia: “Sontag was active in writing and speaking about, or travelling to, areas of conflict, including during the Vietnam War and the Siege of Sarajevo. She wrote extensively about photography, culture and media, AIDS and illness, human rights, and communism and leftist ideology. Although her essays and speeches sometimes drew controversy, she has been described as “one of the most influential critics of her generation.” In her final four years after this interview, Susan Sontag published a long essay, Regarding the Pain of Others in 2003, concerning the visual representation of war and violence. Following her death, a collection of essays and speeches was published in 2007, and her journals and notebooks were published in two volumes, in 2008 and 2012. She died of leukemia on December 28, 2004 at the age of 71. Her illness and death were chronicled in the book Swimming in a Sea of Death by her son David Rieff.

Hunderte reiche Westeuropäer sollen ins belagerte Sarajevo gereist sein, um dort auf Menschenjagd zu gehen. Diese Geschichte kann so nicht stimmen, findet sich aber trotzdem in zahlreichen internationalen Medien – besonders häufig im deutschsprachigen Raum. Auch in seriösen Leitmedien. Der FAZ-Journalist Michael Martens hat sich die Erzählung in vier Artikeln für die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung genauer angesehen, Krsto in einem ausführlichen Beitrag für Übermedien. Wir sprechen über die absurde Quellenlage, widersprüchliche und widerlegte Aussagen und äußerst fragwürdige Rechercheure – und darüber, warum die Geschichte trotzdem von so vielen Medien widergegeben wird, als sei sie gut belegt.

Die Behauptung, dass reiche Europäer für viel Geld auf Opfer in der belagerten Stadt geschossen hätten, lässt sich nicht seriös belegen, das zeigen neue Recherchen des deutschen Journalisten Michael Martens.Die tatsächlichen Verbrechen des Jugoslawienkrieges sind schlimm genug – schadet die Erzählung einer Menschensafari der Aufarbeitung?Darüber diskutieren der Korrespondent Michael Martens, die frühere grüne Justizministerin Alma Zadić, der Balkan-Experte Vedran Džihić sowie der ehemalige ORF-Kriegsreporter Fritz Orter, im Gespräch mit Raimund Löw Hosted on Acast.

Richard Lyntton's life has taken him from Cold War Moscow to the deserts of the Gulf War and the shattered streets of Sarajevo. In this powerful episode, he recalls studying in the Soviet Union during the hopeful Gorbachev years, travelling across Russia by train, and later serving as a tank commander during the First Gulf War. At the heart of this conversation is Bosnia, where Richard witnessed the siege of Sarajevo, came face to face with Bosnian Serb war criminal Radovan Karadžić, and narrowly escaped trouble after secretly filming General Ratko Mladić. Richard also describes documenting the aftermath of ethnic cleansing, filming evidence of war crimes, and later testifying at The Hague. He shares his extraordinary journey from North London schoolboy and Russian-language student to British Army officer, UN observer, filmmaker, actor and thriller writer. His new book, Crown Deception, is out now. It is a story of danger, moral complexity and survival — but also of humanity, resilience and the strange absurdities of war.

Bill felt we all needed a break from Politics and so this Fourth of July edition of the Bill Press Pod features NPR's Scott Simon, discussing Simon's book, Ulysses S. Cat and Other Animals I Have Known, and his family's view that animals are members of the same family as humans. Simon shares stories about early pets like Penny the German shepherd and Hoppy the grasshopper, including how caring for Hoppy revealed his father's ingenuity during a difficult time. He also talks about current pets Daisy the French poodle and Gato Blanco, an oversized, opera-loving cat who frequently interrupts home interviews. Simon reflects on animals' roles in art and literature and recounts moving examples from covering Sarajevo and Hurricane Katrina where people risked danger or refused evacuation to protect their pets, leading to changed evacuation policies. Bill closes by previewing a Supreme Court discussion with Dahlia Lithwick next Tuesday.You can order Scott's new book at Bookshop.org.

In this episode of Peace Matters, we explore the Western Balkans' renewed bid for European Union membership following the Tivat Summit in June 2026 and examine how shifting geopolitical realities are reshaping the region's European future.For more than two decades, the Western Balkans have remained in Europe's "waiting room." Yet the Tivat Summit has injected new momentum into the enlargement process, with fresh economic incentives and a Franco-German push for institutional reform raising hopes that the region's path to Brussels may finally be accelerating.But do the EU's proposed integration measures represent a genuine pathway to full membership? How is the EU's multi-billion-euro Growth Plan affecting citizens on the ground, and where does each Western Balkan country currently stand in its accession process? Is this finally the Western Balkans' moment to join the European peace project?Guest: Adnan Ćerimagić is a senior analyst for the Western Balkans at the European Stability Initiative (ESI), a Berlin-based think-tank, where he researches European Union policy towards the region. Before joining ESI in August 2013, Adnan has worked for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo and Brussels. He also did a traineeship in the Secretariat of the European Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee and worked for the European Training and Research Centre for Human Rights and Democracy (ETC) in Graz. He studied law at the University of Graz and EU international relations and diplomacy at the College of Europe in Bruges. He is a member of the Advisory Board of the International Institute for Peace in Vienna (IIP), the International Advisory Board of the Belgrade Centre for Security Policy (BCBP), and a board member of the Kosovo Civil Society Foundation (KCSF). Adnan is based in Berlin. Accompanied by:Gjergj Loka, Project Coordinator at the IIP.The episode was recorded on 29 June 2026.

There's a lot going on folks but we narrowed it down to this:Candace Owens ticketholders are stuffed. Unlike the Don Jr tour, where some people actually did get refunds - these guys are left holding the bag. Hard to feel sorry for them, though. Even if a few of the 15,000 ticketholders may have shelled out multiple instances of $1500 for the honour of eating cold steak in the same room as Candace Owens. Oh bestill my beating heart! Jack looks into a developing story about 'weekend warriors' paying vast sums of money to Bosnian Serb military officers to shoot and kill civillians for sport. It's pretty rough but an important story which demands justice for victims. We look at the Trump Phone - is it actually shipping? Does it suck? Is it assembled in the USA? Does it come with roadside assistance? We have an honest look at the product and the package it comes in. ANDMonica goes back for her hat. The appeal failed. "Shit" she says as she closes her laptop lid. Another $150k or so added to the bill in costs. Ouch. We look at some choice paragraphs in the judgment which highlight that Monica was complicit in the circumstances that landed her in a pool of debt. Oh and we laugh at Babet because he's an idiot. Enjoy! PS - if you got this far please buy some CBCo beer - craft brewing is a struggling industry and it's not charity - the CRP10 checkout code makes it a pretty sweet deal.

You step off a train in cities like Paris, Florence, Vienna, or Amsterdam and it feels like centuries of wealth, art, empire, and philosophy are layered directly into the streets. The architecture alone can overwhelm you. Cathedrals built before entire countries existed in the Americas. Cafés where writers, revolutionaries, and painters spent decades shaping culture. The infrastructure is polished, the museums endless, and even ordinary neighborhoods can feel cinematic. But what surprises many travelers is how deeply routine it all is for locals. The beauty becomes normalized. People casually drink wine beside buildings older than most civilizations in the Western Hemisphere. Western Europe feels refined, stable, and historically “finished” in a way few regions on Earth do. Eastern Europe hits differently. It feels heavier, rawer, and in many ways more honest. The scars of war, communism, occupation, and survival are still visible in the architecture and mentality. Cities like Budapest, Belgrade, Kraków, Bucharest, or Sarajevo carry a tension between old-world beauty and recent hardship. You can walk through grand Austro-Hungarian boulevards, then see Soviet apartment blocks only minutes away. The people are often less performative for tourists and more direct in conversation. Prices are lower, nightlife can be wilder, and the atmosphere feels less commercialized than Western Europe. There's also a stronger feeling that history here was not just written in books but lived recently by grandparents still alive today. Eastern Europe often leaves travelers with deeper memories because it feels less filtered and more emotionally textured. One of the biggest differences between traveling Europe and traveling Latin America is the relationship between order and spontaneity. Europe, especially Western Europe, operates with systems that have been refined for generations. Trains run on schedules. Streets were designed for walking centuries ago. Public life functions with a certain predictability. Latin America feels more alive in a chaotic sense. Plans change. Conversations last longer. Bureaucracy can feel irrational one moment and strangely human the next. In Europe, efficiency often dominates culture. In Latin America, relationships dominate culture. Neither is automatically better. One gives structure and reliability. The other gives warmth, adaptability, and energy. Travelers who understand this distinction usually enjoy both regions far more because they stop expecting them to operate the same way.

Somehow, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914, throws the entire world into war. Of course, it was not an accident. The alliance systems, the militarism, the nationalism, all of it conspires to doom Europe to its own destruction. But it all starts with two bullets fired by a nineteen-year-old assassin.Support The Show

Somewhere between dystopian nightmare and “wait…WHAT just happened at that hospital?” lies this week's episode. First, we dive into the deeply unsettling—and wildly bizarre—story out of Sarajevo, where authorities are investigating a so-called “human safari” in which wealthy participants allegedly paid for the chance to hunt other humans. Is this real-life Most Dangerous Game territory, an elaborate hoax, or something even stranger lurking beneath the surface? We break down what's known, what's rumored, and why this story sounds like it escaped from a rejected Black Mirror script.Then, we pivot hard into the absurd with legendary King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp, who found himself at the center of a medical mystery that no one saw coming—especially him. After a heart attack landed him in the hospital, Fripp woke up to discover that, for reasons still unexplained, doctors had… shaved his balls. Yes. That happened. We explore the possible (and not-so-possible) medical explanations, the internet's reaction, and whether this is standard procedure or the world's most confusing post-op surprise.It's a tale of two extremes: one story that's disturbingly dark, another that's hilariously head-scratching. Along the way, we ask the important questions—like how something this insane even gets going in the first place, and why no one warns you about unexpected grooming as part of cardiac care. Buckle up for a wild ride through the weirdest corners of the news, where the truth is stranger, darker, and somehow… smoother than fiction this week on Hysteria 51.Links & Resources

What does a lifelong atheist do when his dead father appears above him in the emergency room? Author and war reporter Sebastian Junger nearly bled to death in 2020 from a ruptured aneurysm, and what he saw in those moments sent him on a journey into physics, near-death experiences, and the nature of consciousness itself. In his third appearance on EconTalk, Junger discusses his remarkable book In My Time of Dying with host Russ Roberts. He reflects on covering wars from Sarajevo to Afghanistan, the strange phenomenon of dying people seeing the dead, and why he's still an atheist. Along the way, Junger offers a powerful meditation on terror and reverence, blessing and wounding, and why understanding life's fragility might be the most sacred gift of all.

Day 60 of Operation Epic Fury — except it's not called that anymore. Or a war. Or active kinetic bombing. We track every name the administration has given this thing depending on who's asking and what court they're standing in. Trump tells Congress the ceasefire stopped the War Powers Act clock, calls the seized Iranian oil tanker situation "a very profitable business," and compares the U.S. Navy to pirates. We do the actual math on that profitable business — spoiler: $6 billion in denied Iranian revenue vs. $25-58 billion in U.S. costs, 13 dead service members, gas at $4.39, and Spirit Airlines becoming the first U.S. casualty airline. Plus: Project Freedom paused after less than 24 hours, the Dark Eagle hypersonic gets called up at $15 million per missile, Iran says peace talks need a Lebanon ceasefire (good luck), Israel "didn't know" a deal was close and has "a series of targets ready," Powell refuses to leave the Fed board, Republicans want $1 billion in taxpayer money for Trump's privately-funded ballroom, and Howard "Lord of Commerce" Lutnick can't recall why his family lunched on Epstein's island.

A thousand facets sits with Ena Mulavdić from Elird Jewellery and discuss meeting her husband Ebrahim Mohammadian and how they both have built a wonderful collection that brings both of their backgrounds. About: ELIRD is a jewellery art studio founded on shared practice, material intimacy, and a long-term approach to making. We work as a duo, shaping each piece slowly and entirely by hand in our studio in Sarajevo's Old Town. From the first sketch to the final polish, every stage remains within our hands. Jewellery, for us, is not an accessory but a form of intimate sculpture - objects made to be worn, lived with, and carried through time.   Our backgrounds differ but converge in the work. One rooted in sculpture and painting, the other in industrial and product design. What unites them is a shared attention to form, structure, and meaning. This dialogue between disciplines allows us to approach jewellery as both material research and personal expression.   We do not separate design from making. Over thirty techniques are practiced and refined in-house, giving us full freedom over form, texture, and surface. Materials are chosen for their depth and character, and every surface is shaped with patience and intention.   ELIRD is shaped by the belief that jewellery holds more than aesthetic value. Each piece carries presence, memory, and emotion. It becomes personal through wear, time, and the relationship formed with its owner. Our work is not meant to be replicated or rushed, but to endure. Although we create jewellery, we are not driven by adornment. Our focus lies in the act of making, in learning, and in passing knowledge forward. The studio is also a place of teaching, where apprentices are welcomed into the process and encouraged to develop their own paths. ELIRD is not defined by trends or seasons. It is defined by continuity, by attention, and by a commitment to slow, meaningful work. What we make is shaped as much by hands as by time.

On a summer day in Sarajevo in 1914, a young man fired two rounds of his pistol in the middle of the street, killing a Royal couple... He didn't know it then, but his actions would cause a chain reaction, resulting in the First World War. But who were Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife, the Duchess Sofie? What kind of relationship did they have? And how did a single, chaotic day unravel into one of history's most devastating turning points?Anthony is joined for the final time this month by the marvellous Gareth Russell to retell this tragedy. Gareth's book is “The Emperors: How Europe's Rulers Were Destroyed by the First World War”.Edited by Hannah Feodorov. Produced by Tomos Delargy.

In 1914, Europe was dominated by four great empires — the British, the French, the Russian, and the vast, uneasy realm of Austria-Hungary, stretching from the Alps to the Balkans. While international treaties bound the continent together under a veneer of peace, beneath the surface, the balance was increasingly fragile. As this tension bubbled, the visit of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his beloved wife Sophie to Sarajevo was meant to assert imperial authority. But waiting in the shadows, a group of young conspirators, inspired by Serbian nationalism, were convinced that killing the Archduke could free their people from his empire. What followed took only moments, but the consequences echo throughout history.   So who were the handful of young nationalists who sparked war in Europe? How did the deaths of one loving couple come to carry such enormous weight? And why, in 1914, was Europe so fragile that a single shooting could tear it apart? This is a Short History Of the Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins.

Christmas Day, 1992. Sarajevo, Bosnia. War is ranging - Serb forces surround the city. For nearly four years, its people have endured daily shelling and sniper attacks, cut off from the rest of the world in the longest siege of a capital city in modern warfare. More than 11,000 people were killed. 1600 of them were children. And in the main hospital, a baby is born: Lejla Damon. Her mother didn’t want anything to do with her - if she held her, she said, she would strangle her. Lejla was born of sexual violence used as a weapon of war. Her birth mother had been raped, repeatedly, by Serb soldiers in a concentration camp. And Lejla was just too closely linked to her attackers for her to bear. Lejla was adopted by a British couple, and grew up in London. She felt alone in her earliest life experiences. But in adulthood, she’s found her Bosnian identity, and become an advocate for the countless other ‘invisible’ children around the world born of sexual violence used as a weapon of war.
