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.

Häng med Dick Harrison och Tobias Svanelid på årets lyssnarfrågemarathon bland trojanska krig och Rapunzels torn! Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Årets lyssnarfrågemaraton reder ut varför Rapunzel satt i ett torn, om Kalmarunionen skulle funka idag och när Tyskland hade kunnat invadera Sverige. Och så berättar Dick Harrison hur historien sett ut om Sverige inte förlorat Finland och skotten i Sarajevo aldrig avslossats.

Ließen sich die zuletzt von mir rezensierten Bücher eher storyorientiert an, ging es vor allem um Effekt und Fortgang, sind wir mit Robert Seethalers “Der Trafikant” endlich wieder beim Gefühl. Wir lesen von der großen Liebe einer alleinerziehenden Mutter zu ihrem Sohn, die völlig ohne inzestiöse Gedanken daherkommt, obwohl die beiden in der tiefen Einsamkeit eines Bergdorfes am Rand der Alpen leben, der Sohn jetzt schon siebzehn Jahre zählt und die Mutter nicht unsexy daherkommt. Letzteres hilft ein bisschen, denn wir sind im Jahr 1937, und da reicht das Einkommen einer alleinstehenden Mutter in einem Dorf im Salzkammergut nie im Leben für einen Zweipersonenhaushalt, egal ob als Bäuerin oder Kellnerin im lokalen Gasthaus. In der Saison ist man auf die Zuwendungen des einen oder anderen Touristen angewiesen, im Winter ist Franzens Mutter froh, dass der Gastwirt, der reichste Mann im Dorf, ein Auge auf sie hat. Zum Glück ist er halbwegs ein Kavalier, zumindest nicht knausrig, er isst gern, trinkt dazu seine 8 Biere und 4 Schnäpse und stinken tut er auch nicht, ist er doch ein leidenschaftlicher Schwimmer im kristallklaren Bergsee, direkt vorm Haus der Kleinstfamilie. Leider isst er gern, trinkt Biere und Schnäpse und hatte, von dem bisschen Sturm, der gerade überm Dorf tobt, unbeeindruckt die Hosen runtergelassen und war mit starken Zügen bis in die Mitte des Sees geschwommen, als aus dem Un- ein Gewitter wurde und nun ist er tot, wie die Mutter ihrem Sohn berichtet, und beiden ist augenblicklich klar, dass es das war mit Franzens Kindheit, bei allen Widrigkeiten wohlbehütet wie sie war. Die Mutter habe da eine alte Bekanntschaft, ein bisschen geheimnisvoll, ein Mann auf alle Fälle, alleinstehend, der sich bereit erklärt hat, den Jungen aufzunehmen, auszubilden gar, in Wien, wo Herr Trsnjek wohnt und von Beruf ein Trafikant sei.Rein sprachlich weiß man instinktiv, dass das im deutschen Deutschen komplett unbekannte Wort “Trafikant” aus dem österreichischen kommen muss. Die zeitlich wie geographisch enorme Ausdehnung der K&K Monarchie macht das Wiener Idiom zum Paradies für die Freunde des Lehnwortes. Sorry, Paradeis, natürlich! Beim “Trafikant”, denkt man Verkehr, denkt an “traffic”, an Eisenbahnen von Reichenbach bis Sarajevo, an Dampflokomotiven, Frauen in Rock und Hut, Männer, die sich noch schnell eine Schachtel Zigarillos holen, um die Reise von Wien bis an die Adria zu überstehen, dazu eine Morgen- oder Abendausgabe, je nachdem, wann der Zug geht - und man liegt ziemlich genau richtig. Der Trafikant ist ein Zeitungs- und Tabakwarenverkäufer und zumindest zum Zeitpunkt des Schreibens dieser Zeilen, habe ich regelrecht noch drei solcher Läden hier in Laufweite, auch wenn die in Ostdeutschland “Lottoabgabestellen” heißen oder einfach nur “Zeitungsladen” - nicht mehr lange, muss man fürchten.Waren die ersten siebzehn Jahre für Franz von der Liebe zu seiner Mutter und der Alpenlandschaft geprägt, ist der Umzug in das Wien von 1937 durchaus schockierend. Aber man kommt nicht umhin, dem Jungen Respekt zu zollen, er findet sich schnell rein, lernt von Otto, dem Besitzer des Ladens, das Handwerk. Das besteht neben einer Grundbildung Tabakwaren vor allem aus einer Fähigkeit: dem Zeitunglesen. Denn nur so versteht man die Kundschaft, die so vielfältig ist wie die Zeitungslandschaft in der Noch-Österreichischen-Hauptstadt.Während das Vorkriegs-Warschau des letztens hier besprochenen Buches “Der Boxer” geprägt war von tiefem Rassismus, wirtschaftlicher Ungleichheit und (daraus resultierender) extremer Gewalt, erscheint das Wien der neunzehnhundertdreißiger Jahre zivilisiert, anständig und freundlich. Als Hauptstadt eines paneuropäischen Kaiserreiches über die Jahrhunderte hinweg, ist die Gesellschaft immunisiert, denkt man, gegen die Extreme des Nationalismus, es geht einem gut, man kommt aus miteinander. Aber der Wiener Schmäh verklebt einem die Augen und die Ohren - bis wir Franz begleiten, wie er sich auf die Suche begibt nach einer ganz außerordentlich lebensfrohen Böhmin, die ihm auf dem Prater den Kopf verdreht hat und er sie schließlich in einem abgefuckten Wohnhaus findet, eine Etage über einem illegalen Schweinestall, zusammen mit dreißig anderen Tschechinnen hausend, in einer einzigen Wohnung. Bis wir den Fleischemeister aus dem Laden gegenüber des Trafikanten kennenlernen, ein grundlos neidvoller Wutbürger, der Typus, der sich acht Jahrzehnte später über die ganze Welt verbreiten sollte. Bis wir die feineren Damen der Gesellschaft im Laden über die Juden reden hören. Mit diesen Vignetten zieht uns Robert Seethaler ganz nebenbei in den Strudel des Nationalsozialismus, so wie dieser die ganze Welt in den seinen sog, damals und heute. Denn eigentlich begleiten wir Franz doch nur auf seinem Weg und Weh ins Leben, wie er so furchtbar unglücklich verliebt ist, in die Anezka, die Bier liebt und Gulasch und Tanzen und Sex aber halt nicht den Franzl, wie er selbst bald merkt, dass das nicht gut gehen wird, aber, wie das so ist mit siebzehn ist, es geht nich ohne sie, die Welt geht unter ohne sie und er einfach nicht mehr weiter weiß.Da betritt in einem wirklich unerwarteten what-the-f**k Moment Siegmund Freud die Szene: “Ja, klar, Wien, natürlich!”, schlägt man sich die Hand vor die Stirn, natürlich lebte dort Siegmund Freud und zwar gleich die Straße hoch vom Trafikanten und wie Franz lernt, ist der ein berühmter Doktor, der den Leuten den Kopf wieder richtet. Und ein Jud. Aber was es mit denen auf sich hat, war Franz noch nie so recht klar, sind doch ganz normale Leute, was haben alle nur..Was für eine Wendung, waren wir doch bisher nicht ganz klar, worum es im “Trafikanten” gehen soll. Für einen Heimatroman haben wir die Alpen zu schnell verlassen, für ein coming of age Buch gibt es zu viel Kulisse und jetzt steht da auch noch der fast neunzigjährige Freud in der Tür, beziehungsweise geht gerade raus aus ihr und Franz denkt sich, wenn der Mann so viel vom Verrücktwerden versteht, kann er ihm vielleicht helfen, denn er wird doch gerade sehr verrückt wegen seiner Liebe zu Anezka. Also steckt er sich eine Handvoll Zigarren Freuds Lieblingsmarke “Hoyo de Monterrey” ins Jacket, folgt dem berühmten Herrn Doktor und setzt sich auf die Bank vor seinem Haus. Irgendwann muss der ja mal wieder rauskommen und dann kann er ihn vielleicht fragen, was er machen soll mit der Anezka, ist ja sein Job.All diese Szenen sind geschrieben in unaufgeregter wunderschöner Prosa und obwohl wir ahnen, worum es bald gehen wird - worum soll es schon gehen, in Wien, ein Jahr vor dem Anschluss - ist doch alles irgendwie normal. Es ist normal aus der heutigen Sicht auf die Welt, unterscheidet die sich doch leider nicht sehr von der in 1937. Arbeiter, Doktoren, Tagelöhner, reiche Witwen geben sich die Klinke in die Hand, beim Trafikanten, der kennt jeden und alle, sie sich untereinander jedoch nur aus der Zeitung. Jeder lebt in seiner kleinen Blase und die Weisheiten über die Welt stehen im “Volksblatt” für den Arbeiter (die Juden sind schuld), dem “Kleinen Blatt” für die Dame (die Juden sind schuld) und in der “Wiener Zeitung” für den feinen Herrn (die Juden, ditto). Und so braucht es nicht lange bis die Scheiben vom Trafikanten beschmiert werden. Zwar lebt hier gar kein Jude, aber so richtig koscher ist Otto Trsnjek mit seinem einem Bein (das andere blieb im Weltkrieg, dem ersten, logischerweise) auch nicht, man weiß es nicht. Und von hier an lassen wir dem Leser ein bisschen die Story entdecken, denn sie zu lesen ist nicht nur erwartbar traurig, sie ist auch sehr schön und sie ist ein bisschen wichtig.lZu sehr erinnert das seltsame Nebeneinanderherleben aller in diesem Wien, in diesem untergegangenen Kaiserreich an das heutige Deutschland, denn da war so ein Österreicher, der da beeindruckend für Ordnung sorgte in Berlin, wie man schon neidlos anerkennen muss - so die meisten Wiener. Zu sehr erinnert der Gröfaz von damals an so manche Lokalpolitiker heute, einen aus Thüringen zum Beispiel, den man jetzt offiziell einen Nazi nennen darf und dessen Partei in diesem Herbst dennoch mehr als 40% der Leute wählen wollen (in Sachen-Anhalt). In den Zeitungsläden von Magdeburg und Halle liegen vielleicht weniger verschiedene Zeitungen aus als in Wien, 1937, aber gemein ist ihnen, dass diese Zeitungen den gleichen Prinzipien wie damals auf den Leim gehen: es muss laut sein, es muss eine einfache Lösung versprechen und es braucht einen Sündenbock - und ob das ein Jude oder ein Afghane ist, ist dem Nazi wurscht und für beide Opfer ist es jeweils egal, ob sie einen Baseballschläger über den Schädel oder hochoffiziell von einem Polizisten per Flugzeug den staatlich verordneten Totschlag per Abschiebung bekommen.Und keinen kümmert es so recht, hat man das Gefühl, steht ja alles in der Zeitung oder beim Tiktoker und wenn es alle ok finden, isses schon ok. Statt sich kurz zu fragen, wie es der Frisörin, dem Zeitungsverkäufer, dem Geflüchteten heute geht, tun wir das genausowenig wie sich die Leute damals um die Leben und Gefühle der Fleischer oder der Trafikanten oder der weltberühmten Psychologen scherten.Rufen möchte man! Ob man vielleicht mal kurz den Kopf heben kann, bittschön?! Den Spiegel/Freitag/Junge Freiheit weglegen und selbst denken und bedenken, was die Konsequenzen sind, wenn man das so lange nicht tut, bis es zu spät ist!All das tut Robert Seethaler mit seiner Erzählung, vordergründig in einer gelassenen Schönheit, dass man zunächst zweifelt, ob das so angebracht sei und man dann merkt, dass das der Trick ist, nicht nur uns Leserinnen bei der Stange zu halten, sondern die erschreckende banale Schönheit kurz vor der Katastrophe zu malen, auf das wir diesmal vielleicht die Zeichen der Zeit rechtzeitig sehen.

Luke O'Neil, professor of biochemistry in the school of biochemistry and immunology at Trinity College Dublin Joined Pat as always on a Saturday, but this time from Sarajevo. This week Luke spoke to Pat about a major conference happening in Chicago, where the world's leading cancer specialists and researchers are coming together to share how they are working to fight the disease.

Mit dem Ingeborg-Bachmann-Preis wurde er 2024 endgültig einem breiten Publikum bekannt: Der Schriftsteller Tijan Sila lebt und arbeitet in Kaiserslautern. Im Gespräch erzählt er von seiner besonderen Verbindung zur Stadt, vom Schreiben neben seiner Arbeit als Berufsschullehrer und dem Familienalltag mit seiner kleinen Tochter, von Kriegserfahrungen als literarischem Stoff – und von seiner Kinderbuchreihe „Lila Leuchtfeuer“, die er gemeinsam mit seiner Frau entwickelt hat.

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.

photo by Karla Del Orbe. Adelisa Selimbašić (b. 1996) is an Italian-Bosnian artist living and working in New York. In 2021, she graduated from the Venice Academy of Fine Arts with a Master's in Painting. Her pictorial research aims to imagine a world in which the sense of inadequacy does not exist, opening to a nonconventional perception of the body. Through scenes drawn from everyday life and an essential figurative approach, the artist reinterprets the idea of femininity, focusing on the complexities of human experience, desire, tension, and the need for physical contact. Her practice is based on a dense and almost tactile painterly presence, achieved through careful manipulation of color: working with a contained palette, Selimbašić mixes pigments directly on the canvas, allowing the tones to meet and transform, pushing toward a plasticity that challenges traditional representations of the female body. In recent years, she has presented numerous solo exhibitions in institutional and international gallery contexts. Among her most recent solo exhibitions: When we become each other, curated by Rebis Rebis (Delfina Pattacini and Gaddo Amunni), Lubov Gallery, New York (2026); The Dancefloor, curated by Michele Spinelli, z2o Sara Zanin, Rome (2026); For My Eyes Only, Manifesto Gallery of Contemporary Art, Sarajevo (2025); The Space in Between, curated by Delfina Pattacini, Tommaso Calabro Gallery, Milan (2025); Dust Bunny, curated by Michele Spinelli, z2o Project, Rome (2024); Why Is It So Hard to Declare Yourself?, Galleria Ipercubo, Milan (2023); In parallel, Selimbašić has participated in numerous group exhibitions in Italy and abroad. installation view Where we become each other, Lubov gallery, curated by Rebis Rebis (Delfina Pattacini and Gaddo Amunni), New York Tanisha, 2026, oil in canvas, 14x 16 inches Bay,2026, oil in canvas, 14×16 inches

Suada Kapić je sarajevska rediteljica, scenaristkinja, medijska pionirka i osnivačica nezavisne multimedijalne kuće FAMA, prve takve vrste u bivšoj Jugoslaviji. Sa samo 16. godina je glumila jednu od partizanki sa Serge Gainsburgom i Jane Birkin u partizanskom filmu Milutina Kosovca iz 1971. godine, "19 djevojaka i jedan mornar". Nakon završenog studija književnosti odlučila je upisati studij režije kod čuvenog talijanskog redatelja Federica Fellinija, no audicija je otkazana zbog ubistva premijera Aldo Mora. Potom je upisala režiju u Beogradu kod Dejana Mijača. Prije rata u bivšoj Jugoslaviji pokrenula je prvu nezavisnu TV kuću pod nazivom FAMA, koja je snimala čuveni talk show serijal "Umijeće življenja" sa vodećim protagonistima političkog života tadašnje Jugoslavije, od Karadžića, Tijanića, Mesića, Šuvara i drugih. Tokom opsade Sarajeva pokrenula je neke od najvažnijih projekata dokumentovanja života pod opsadom, uključujući legendarni „Sarajevo Survival Guide“ i „Survival Map 92–96“, stvarajući jedinstvenu arhivu svjedočanstava o svakodnevnom preživljavanju u ratnim okolnostima.Njena dugogodišnja misija bila je sačuvati iskustva građana Sarajeva od zaborava, kroz hiljade prikupljenih priča, intervjua i dokumenata koji danas predstavljaju jedno od najvažnijih svjedočanstava o opsadi u modernoj historiji. Kroz umjetnost, medije i kulturu, Suada Kapić istražuje teme sjećanja, otpora, ljudske izdržljivosti i mehanizama preživljavanja u ekstremnim okolnostima. U ovoj epizodi razgovaramo o Sarajevu prije rata, opsadi kao iskustvu koje je obilježilo njen život i rad, nastanku FAMA kolekcije, kulturi pamćenja, transgeneracijskom sjećanju i traumama, ali i o tome zašto je važno sačuvati lične priče kao dokument vremena za generacije koje dolaze.Razgovarale smo o:00:00:00 Teaser i najava00:03:41 Sa 16 godina glumila sa Serge Gainsburgom i Jane Birkin u partizanskom filmu "19 djevojaka i jedan mornar" Milutina Kosovca00:10:27 Zbog atentata na Alda Mora 1978. otkazana audicija za studij režije kod Fellinija u Rimu00:18:44 "Serijal „Umijeće življenja“ sniman u Sarajevu 1991. godine s vodećim političarima tadašnje Jugoslavije00:26:01 Nastanak FAMA-e, prve nezavisne TV produkcijske kuće u bivšoj Jugoslaviji00:33:01 Početak posade Sarajeva, bijeg s Grbavice i nastanak projekta FAMA kolekcija00:40:05 Transgeneracijska memorija je modul za suočavanje sa ratnih traumama00:46:10 Odlazak u Tokio usred rata zbog promocije "Sarajevo survival guidea"00:54:50 Sefer Halilović nam je pomogao da od vojnih JNA mapa napravimo Mapu opkoljenog Sarajeva01:00:20 Izložba "Mape opkoljenog Sarajeva" u Britanskoj nacionalnoj biblioteci01:05:01 Naš arhiv iz FAME-e ćemo pohraniti online i u svjetskim bibliotekama, zbog straha od pogrešne interpretacije arhivskog materijala 01:13:01 Na ovom podneblju nam je potrebna ozbiljna psihoterapija zbog transgeneracijskih trauma01:21:40 Zašto je nakon 8 godina lobiranja propala ideja o osnivanju Muzeja opsade Sarajeva?01:30:01 Nakon neuspjele inicijative za osnivanje Muzeja opsade Sarajeva, odlučili smo FAMA kolekciju pretvoriti u virtualni arhiv sjećanja, dostupnu svima i svugdjeFAMA metodologija: https://www.famamethodology.net/bhsSerijal "Umijeće življenja": https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWuNIc69Mzw1uLGNRWaj2fX62I8abye3g

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

Neue Slowenische Kunst utropade sig till stat och utfärdade pass. Patricia Lorenzoni reflekterar över ett kusligt konstprojekt som sprängde gränser. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Det tidiga 1990-talet var de nya och nygamla statsbildningarnas tid. Sovjetunionen hade upplösts och flera forna sovjetrepubliker förklarat sig självständiga. På Balkan bröt den jugoslaviska federationen samman i uppslitande krig. Ur konflikterna reste sig sju nya stater: Bosnien/Hercegovina, Kroatien, Montenegro, Nordmakedonien, Serbien, Slovenien och så småningom också Kosovo.Eller är det åtta? 1992 öppnade i Moskva staten NSK sin första utländska beskickning. NSK står för Neue Slowenische Kunst, ”ny slovensk konst” på tyska, och bildades 1984 av tre slovenska kulturgrupper. Det var teatern Sester Scipion Nasice, bildkonstnärerna i IRWIN och industrisynthbandet Laibach. Dessa sades vara kollektivet NSKs religiösa, kulturellt-historiska samt ideologiska avdelning. Sju år efter sitt bildande tog så NSK steget att utropa sig till stat.Som konstprojekt är det inte unikt. Andra exempel är Lars Vilks Ladonien eller Carl Michael von Hausswolffs och Leif Elggrens Elgaland-Vargaland. Men någonting ger NSK-staten en särställning bredvid liknande statsbildningar, och väcker både oro och en särskild fascination.Den mest kända delen av NSK i Sverige är sannolikt Laibach, och inte självklart positivt. Bandet framträder gärna i uniform, scenestetiken är kraftigt inspirerad av både nazism och stalinism. I 1980-talets Slovenien väckte de skandal. Namnet ”Laibach” är den tyska beteckningen på huvudstaden Ljubljana, och minner om både nazistisk ockupation och slovenskt medlöperi. Under flera år var bandet rent av förbjudet att använda sitt eget namn. I en berömd tv-intervju 1983 får gruppen frågor om sina politiska ståndpunkter. Vid tillfället bär de uniformer och armbindlar prydda med svarta kors, deras svar är kryptiska meningar tonlöst reciterade från ett papper, blickarna stela och uttryckslösa. Effekten är kuslig.Ett ofta citerat uttalande från NSK säger: ”Endast den konst som talar den politiska manipulationens språk kan undkomma manipulation.” Några år innan självständighetsförklaringen vann konstkollektivet en tävling om den officiella affischen till den jugoslaviska ”ungdomens dag”, ett firande kopplat till den store ledaren Titos födelsedag. Först efter att vinnarbidraget offentliggjorts uppmärksammades att affischen var en re-make på en nazitysk propagandabild. Den nazistiska fanan hade bara ersatts med en jugoslavisk, och den tyska örnen med en duva. Händelsen blottade en oroande likhet i estetisk sensibilitet mellan den nazistiska staten och Titos specifikt jugoslaviska form av statssocialism. NSK och Laibach iscensatte en dyrkan av den totalitaristiska staten. När de utropade sig själva till stat var det därför svårtolkat. Var det ett politiskt eller ett konstnärligt projekt? Totalitärt eller frihetligt? Var det ironi eller faktisk fascism? Den slovenske filosofen och psykoanalytiske teoretikern Slavoj Žižek talar om ”överidentifikation” som en strategi bland dissidenter i den europeiska realsocialismens slutfas. Genom att ta realsocialismen på större allvar än den tog sig själv kunde man, säger han, synliggöra systemets förnekade premisser. I detta sammanhang förstår han också NSK och Laibach. Deras iscensättningar är inte parodi, de opererar inte genom förlöjligande. Vad NSK frambesvärjde och har fortsatt att frambesvärja är den moderna statens bortträngda sida, dess spöklika tvilling.Freud beskrev det kusliga som vad som borde ha varit dött, men som likväl rör på sig. Om Laibach och NSK mött frågan om fascism med ett överslätande skratt och en försäkran om att allt bara var spel, hade ordningen återställts och monstret åter motats ner i källaren. Men det var en lugnande gest man vägrade.När NSK-staten utropade sig själv, började den emellertid med entusiastisk generositet dela ut passhandlingar. En retrofuturistisk pastisch på affischen ”Uncle Sam wants you” lockar med medborgarskap i ”universums första globala stat”. En stat utan land, transnationell och placerad i tiden snarare än i rummet. Till en början framställde NSK faktiskt sina pass i samarbete med det unga slovenska inrikesministeriet. Tillverkningsprocessen var alltså identisk. NSK-passen uppfattades lätt som ”autentiska”, det vill säga, som dokument som knöt bäraren till ett visst territorium. Och i krigets kaos, där ett pass över en natt kunde visa sig värdelöst, skedde med just dessa pass någonting förunderligt. Som 1995 när Nationalteatern i det då belägrade Sarajevo under ett två dagar långt evenemang förklarades vara NSK-territorium. Mängder av pass och diplomatpass utfärdades, och med hjälp av dessa lyckades sedan flera Sarajevobor ta sig ut ur staden.En vän med rötter på Balkan påpekar att människor under kriget hjälpte varandra över gränser hela tiden; ibland altruistiskt, ibland mot betalning. Att utgå ifrån att gränsvakterna tog NSK-passen för ”äkta” blir därför förenklande. Lika troligt är att de erbjöd vakten en förevändning, ett verktyg för att öppna gränsen. Men kanske lät sig detta göras just för att passet stod fritt från etniska lojaliteter och gränskonflikter. Här glimrar en utopisk möjlighet; just det pass som inte refererar till ett territorium, blir vad som möjliggör de belägrades väg ut.Kulturteoretikern Alexei Monroe ser i NSK och Laibach också en delförklaring till den slovenska nationalismens relativa avsaknad av militaristisk chauvinism. Hos NSK blev nationen kitsch; en överdådig yta, lika tömd på politiskt innehåll som NSK-staten är tom på territoriella anspråk. På så vis, menar han, föregrep de den paramilitära appropriering av nationen som skedde i andra delar av forna Jugoslavien.Och sannerligen, att betrakta Laibach musikvideor är att bjudas in att frossa i totalitär estetik. Det är varken ironi eller satir, utan något annat och mer. Fascismen dras till sin konsekvens som just blott estetik, tömd på de våldsamma implikationerna av ett territoriellt och biopolitiskt projekt. Ställd invid detta estetiska överdåd måste varje politisk fascism framstå som en blek och menlös kopia.Men fungerar denna överidentifikationens strategi på 2000-talet? Den fascism som opererade i det 1980-tal som födde fram NSK tog sig sannerligen på allvar. Hur skulle den då kunna tåla mer allvar än vad den själv var förmögen till? Under 2000-talet har vi istället sett framväxten av en fascism som gjort det hotfulla pajaseriet till sin paradgren.Kanske är NSK ett delvis föråldrat projekt. Ändå finner jag ett märkligt hopp i detta formulerande av den totala statens totala frihet i det allomfattande medborgarskapet. NSK blåser upp nationalstatens idé tills den sprängs.

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.

(02:24) In België en Oostenrijk is deze week het onderzoek geopend naar mensen die begin jaren ‘90 meededen aan zogenoemde sniper-safari's. Daarbij zouden rijke westerse toeristen enorme geldbedragen hebben betaald aan Bosnische Serviërs om op onschuldige burgers te schieten tijdens de belegering van Sarajevo. Een gruwelijk gerucht dat al lange tijd rondging, maar nu in meerdere Europese landen daadwerkelijk onderzocht wordt. Eerder dit jaar zijn er in Italië al strafrechtelijke onderzoeken gestart.    Om dit toe te lichten is Balkandeskundige en journalist Marjolein Koster te gast. Vorig jaar maakte Koster samen met Alma Mustafić de podcast De elf stemmen van Srebrenica (https://www.nporadio1.nl/podcasts/de-11-stemmen-van-srebrenica), uitgebracht voor OVT.      (13:50) Er is geen geld voor een nieuw systeem, en dus verdwijnt het luchtalarm. Geen geloei meer op de eerste maandag van de maand vanaf 2028 dus. Een stukje gedeelde nationale herkenning verdwijnt, maar vanaf nu zal een NL Alert volgens minister Van Weel voldoende zijn.    Wanneer is dit luchtalarm eigenlijk in Nederland geïnstalleerd, en hoe werden mensen voordien gewaarschuwd voor onheil? Te gast is Roelof van Gelderen van Museum Bescherming Bevolking in Grou, Friesland.    (21:27) Ze wilde studeren in een tijd dat de universiteit voor vrouwen gesloten was. Ze wilde denken, schrijven en de wereld veranderen, terwijl een getrouwde vrouw wettelijk handelingsonbekwaam was. Geertruida Kapteyn-Muysken, geboren in 1855, zocht haar leven lang naar een manier om vrij te zijn en ontwikkelde een levensfilosofie die verbluffend modern is, zo ontdekte historicus Maite Karssenberg. Ze schreef de biografie Dubbelleven: Geertruida Kapteyn-Muysken en haar rebelse levensfilosofie, en vertelt meer. (34:54) De Neanderthaler. Jarenlang werd hij gezien als het achterlijke achterneefje van de mens: een logge en dommige holbewoner. Een evolutionaire zijstraat die het uiteindelijk af moest leggen tegen ons, de slimme Homo sapiens. Maar de afgelopen jaren brokkelt dat beeld in hoog tempo af. Uit DNA-bewijs rijst zelfs de vraag op: waren die Neanderthalers misschien helemaal geen aparte mensensoort?   We weten ook dat Neanderthalers lijm maakten, sieraden droegen, en zorgden voor gehandicapte groepsgenoten. Nu blijkt zelfs dat ze aan prehistorische tandheelkunde deden. Vorige week werd bekend dat een kies uit Siberië krassporen laat zien van een stenen tandartswerktuig, gebruikt om de pijn van een ontstoken kies te verlichten.    Om dit verder te duiden is Gerrit Dusseldorp te gast, archeoloog aan de Universiteit Leiden.    (45:58) Elke week bespreken we historische tips met afwisselend Nadia Bouras, Wim Berkelaar, Bart Funnekotter, Sanne Frequin, en Fresco Sam-Sin. Deze week is de beurt aan Wim Berkelaar. Hij bespreekt twee boeken en een tentoonstelling:  Deftig rechts in het gedrang - Meine Henk Klijnsma  Trui van Lier, Utrechtse verzetsvrouw - Jim Terlingen  Ongehoord, verzamelde vrouwen (https://www.museumgouda.nl/tentoonstelling/ongehoord-verzamelde-vrouwen/) - Museum Gouda    (01:01:08) De tijd, hoe onvoltooid ook, is er altijd geweest. Toch? Misschien hebben we hem niet altijd hetzelfde gemeten en beleefd. Historicus en tijdreiziger Philip Dröge maakte een reis rond de wereld om plekken te bezoeken waar de geschiedenis van de tijd een klein beetje tastbaarder wordt. De verhalen zijn te vinden in zijn nieuwe boek De Tijdreiziger en hij is bij ons te gast.      (01:14:42) OVT Doc: Uit de pas, Het vrijgevochten leven van danseres Darja Collin (Deel 1)  Ze was vrijgevochten, gedreven, getalenteerd en van grote betekenis voor de dans: Darja Collin, de eerste Nederlandse danseres die internationaal doorbrak.    Programmamaker Katinka Baehr maakte samen met Arend Hulshof, die het boek Alleen in dans kon zij wonen over haar schreef, een tweedelige documentaire. Over haar avontuurlijke leven, haar dans en haar (korte en ongelukkige) huwelijk met schrijver, dichter en scheepsarts Slauerhoff.

Na putu ka svemiru, dubrovački sastav Silente održaće prvi koncert u Nemačkoj, u Frankfurtu, 6. juna. U razgovoru sa Borisom Rabrenovićem, frontmen Tibor Karamehmedović govori o pisanju muzike i tekstova, kako je neplanirano postao pevač, o pesmama koje se napišu jednom u milenijumu i tri meseca provedenih na barci sa sendvičem i pivom. Od kolege Zorana Ćatića saznajemo kakvih novosti ima na muzičkoj sceni Bosne i Hercegovine. A kao i uvek pripremili smo i dobru muziku. Von Boris Rabrenovic.

Welcome to Daily Bitachon. Today, we are continuing our exploration of the concept of seeds, specifically through the lens of the Chovot HaLevavot (Duties of the Heart). The author uses the phrase yishtabach hachacham hachonen —"Praised is the wise and gracious One"—who brought about "great events from the smallest and weakest of causes" ( ha-mesabev le-hawayot ha-devarim ha-gedolim min ha-ktana ve-hachalusha she-be-sibot ). To support this, he quotes the verse in Shmuel I (2:3), ve-lo nitkenu alilot : "And by Him, causes are set up." Defining "Alilot" The word alilot literally means "causes." We see this reflected in Rabbeinu Bachya's commentary on Shemot (10:2), where Hashem says, et asher hit'allalti —referring to the plagues in Egypt. While Rashi interprets this as "I made a laughingstock" of Egypt, Rabbeinu Bachya explains that hit'allalti stems from the word illa , meaning the primary cause behind everything. As we say in the daily proclamation based on the Zohar, God is Ilat ha-Ilot ve-Sibat ha-Sibot —the Cause of all causes and the Reason behind all reasons. This theme is echoed in the Sephardic Ne'ila prayer, El Nora Alila : "God who is awesome in His causes, provide for us forgiveness at the time of the closing of the gates." The Intermediary Causes In Shaar HaBitachon (The Gate of Trust), the Chovot HaLevavot explains that everything unfolds in two stages: The Divine Decree: The initial decision by the Creator. Intermediary Causes: These are the vehicles that carry out the decree. They may be near or far, hidden or revealed, but they all rush to fulfill the Creator's will. He gives the example of drawing water from a well. The closest cause is the pail. The pail is attached to a rope, which is attached to a pulley, which is pulled by an animal, led by a shepherd, who answers to a boss. If you were the water, you might think the pail is the one acting upon you. In reality, the pail is merely the final link in a long chain of command starting with the boss. We often focus on the "closest cause"—like pleading with a meter maid to avoid a ticket—but she is simply an intermediary for a supervisor, who answers to a department, which follows laws set by Congress. The Megaleh Amukot explains that Chana meant we shouldn't say God is "high up" and removed from the world; rather, He is the El De'ot —the God of knowledge who supervises every intricate detail. A Historical "Wrong Turn" To understand how God brings about massive shifts through tiny events, we can look at the trigger for World War I: the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914. The "great event" was a global catastrophe: 20 million deaths and the collapse of four empires (German, Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, and Russian). But the "small cause" was a series of improbable coincidences: Earlier that day, a bomb bounced off the Archduke's car, failing to kill him. The Archduke made an impulsive decision to visit the men injured by that bomb in the hospital. Because the regular route was closed for investigation, his chauffeur took a wrong turn . Realizing the mistake, the driver pulled to a halt directly in front of a diner where one of the original assassins happened to be standing. Without even aiming, the assassin fired two shots. Once Austria declared war on Serbia (July 28, 1914), the gears of the Great Power alliances began to turn: Russia mobilized its massive army to scare Austria into backing down. Germany saw Russian mobilization as a threat and declared war on Russia. France , being Russia's ally, was now pulled in. Germany declared war on France and launched an invasion through neutral Belgium . Britain had a treaty to protect Belgium. When German boots touched Belgian soil, Britain declared war on Germany. . The Spiritual Lesson What brought about World War I? From a human perspective, it was one wrong turn. From a Torah perspective, it was Hakadosh Baruch Hu using a minute event to fulfill a massive decree. This is the "wisdom of the seeds." Just as a massive tree is hidden within a tiny seed, the great salvations we pray for are planted in the small, seemingly insignificant events of our daily lives. This is why we pray every day, et tzemach David avdecha mehera tatzmiach —"Let the sprout of David Your servant sprout speedily." God is Zoreia Tzedakot (He plants acts of righteousness) and Matzmiach Yeshuot (He causes salvations to sprout). Everything we experience today—the small turns, the "coincidences," and the minor causes—are the seeds of a much greater Divine plan.

Dubbelmonarkin Österrike-Ungern hade sina rötter i medeltiden. Denna mulitetniska stadsbildning – med nära femtio miljoner invånare och ett lapptäcke av språk, religioner och lojaliteter – slets sönder efter att Österrike-Ungern hamnade på förlorarsidan i första världskriget. Men idag har statsbildningen omprövats av historiker och ses som en föregångare till EU.Den habsburgska ätten hade sedan medeltiden styrt ett allt större rike. Dubbelmonarkin Österrike-Ungern som upprättades 1867 var ett kompromissbygge för att hålla ihop ett mångnationellt område i nationalismens tidevarv. Men när nationalism och industriellt storkrig pressade systemet till bristningsgränsen blev kompromissen både dess styrka – och dess dödsdom.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Leos Müller, professor i historia vid Stockholms universitet om Österrike-Ungerns sammanbrott. Han är aktuell med boken Europas vändpunkter – 1492, 1914, 1989.Huset Habsburg regerade Centraleuropa under 650 år – från Rudolf I som kröntes 1273 till Karl I som avsattes 1918. Genom giftermål lyckades de bygga upp ett rike som sträckte över kontinenter. Det var ett stort och skiftande välde, sammanhållet av dynastin snarare än av språk och nation.Josef II:s (1741-90) reformiver omfattade religionspolitik, utbildning och rättsväsende. Under 1780-talet ökade religionsfriheten för protestanter och grekisk-ortodoxa, och judarnas ställning förbättrades genom särskilda toleransedikt. Han var ingen 1800-talsliberal, men en statsbyggare som menade att staten blev starkare om människor fick större utrymme att verka – inom statens ramar.Nationalismens idéer växte under 1800-talet och fick explosiv kraft revolutionsåret 1848. Upproret slogs ned – med rysk hjälp – men visade att imperiet måste förändras. Kejsare Franz Josef (1830-1916), som tillträdde 1848, drev på modernisering: likhet inför lagen, avskaffande av livegenskapens sista rester, järnvägar och lärosäten. Gründerzeit-epoken gav många av rikets städer en gemensam, igenkännbar stadsbild.Nationalitetskriserna fortsatte, och nederlagen 1859 och 1866 försvagade monarkin. För att behålla Ungern blev kompromissen 1867 nödvändig. Österrike-Ungern skapades då som två rikshalvor i personalunion. De delade utrikespolitik och krigsmakt och hade gemensamma ministerier för detta, liksom ett gemensamt finansministerium för de gemensamma utgifterna – men saknade ett gemensamt parlament och en gemensam regering i modern mening. Eftersom centrala uppgörelser dessutom behövde omförhandlas återkom kriserna med jämna mellanrum.Kompromissen gav ungrarna en särställning utan att ge motsvarande inflytande till rikets övriga folk. I Ungern drevs dessutom en magyariseringspolitik som ökade bitterheten bland minoriteter. I den österrikiska rikshalvan blev politiken mer pluralistisk, men parlamentet tyngdes ofta av blockeringar.När skotten i Sarajevo 1914 tände stormaktskriget ställdes dubbelmonarkin inför industriellt totalkrig. Kriget mot Serbien och hotet från Ryssland blottade svagheter i ledning och resurser, och beroendet av Tyskland växte.Bild: Militärparad genom Prag omkring år 1900, när staden var en del av Kungariket Böhmen inom Österrike-Ungern.

Balkan-Roadtrip, West-Kanada durchqueren, die peruanischen Anden überstehen und ein Hausboot mit den besten Freunden teilen. Wir feiern die kommenden Reisemonate mit Tipps und Inspiration. Außerdem verneigen wir uns vor dem Konzert und der Serie des Jahres und sprechen darüber, wie dumm es ist, auf über 2000 Meter zu rauchen (Stichwort: Höhenkrankheit). Wir reisen nach Sarajevo, Montenegro, Belgrad, Vancouver Island und auf einsame Nordsee-Inseln - in die Nationalparks Banff und Jasper, fränkische Baumhäuser, bewohnbare Kirchen und bis nach Thessaloniki. Ein wilder Ritt, der auch ein bisschen Spaß macht. :)PS: Für alle, die uns geschrieben haben zwecks Tipps und Inspiration für den Reise-Sommer 2026: Es waren soooo viele, tolle Nachrichten, dass wir einige erst in den nächsten Weekender-Folgen beantworten werden. Wir haben euch nicht vergessen. DANKE!—

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.

How much does the average documentary filmmaker's biggest licensing mistake cost?A 30-second Jackson 5 clip can run a documentary $50,000 to $70,000 in licensing fees. Veteran ARC Producer Teddy Cannon has spent a decade in the messy middle between production and legal, and he is here to walk Christian through how to keep your film from becoming the next case study.In Episode 277, host Christian Taylor sits down with Teddy to break down the role most documentary filmmakers overlook until it costs them tens of thousands of dollars: the ARC Producer, the modern hybrid of the Archival Producer and the Clearance Producer.The conversation centers on three frameworks that every documentary filmmaker needs before rolling camera. First, the $70,000 Jackson 5 case study, a real licensing scenario Teddy is working on right now. Second, the Public Location is not Public Domain rule, which catches filmmakers who assume that filming a statue, mural, or artwork in a public space makes it free to use. Third, the Berry Picking method for finding rare archival footage in places the standard stock libraries do not reach. Teddy also gives a first look at ArcWorks, the digital management system he is building to replace the spreadsheet workflows the industry has been stuck with for decades.In this episode, you'll learn:Why a 30-second clip of a famous artist can cost $50,000 to $70,000 to licenseThe difference between an Archival Producer and a Clearance Producer (and why you need both)Why filming a statue in a public park can still require legal clearanceHow the Fair Use doctrine actually works for documentary filmmakersThe Duck Rule for understanding fair use in 7 secondsWhen fair use protects you and when an attorney is required for E&O insuranceThe Berry Picking method for finding rare footage in small, non-digital museumsHow a senior ARC Producer can save thousands through industry relationshipsWhat it costs to hire an ARC Producer ($2,500 to $3,500 per week)A first look at ArcWorks, Teddy's new digital management systemChapters:0:00 The $70,000 Mistake: Why Licensing Matters1:03 What is ARC Producing?

In today's production pipeline, the two roles have melded into one. A senior ARC Producer is hired in pre-production, not at the end, and saves filmmakers thousands of dollars by spotting licensing problems before footage gets locked in the edit.How much does it cost to license music from a famous artist for a documentary?Licensing music from a major artist like the Jackson 5 can cost $50,000 to $70,000 for a single 30-second clip. That figure includes both the synchronization license, which is the right to use the song with picture, and the master use license, which is the right to use the specific recording. Music is among the most expensive third-party assets because it requires clearance from both the publisher and the record label, and major artists' estates are often hyper-protective of their brands.Can you film a statue or work of art in a public place and use it in your documentary?No, not without clearance. Even when a statue, mural, or painting is displayed in a public location, the work itself is owned by the artist or estate and is protected by copyright. Documentary filmmakers who include works of art in their footage, whether intentionally framed or accidentally captured behind an interview subject, must clear those works before delivery. Bringing a clearance professional into the pre-production meeting can prevent the costly post-production scramble of identifying artwork after the fact.What is the Fair Use doctrine for documentary filmmakers?Fair Use is a legal doctrine that allows documentary filmmakers to use copyrighted material without licensing it, provided the use serves a clear documentary purpose. The general rule is that the visual on screen must directly relate to what the talking head or voiceover is discussing. If you are talking about a duck and there is a duck on screen, that use typically falls under fair use. Documentary filmmakers should work with both an ARC Producer who understands fair use boundaries and a fair use attorney whose written letter is required for Errors and Omissions insurance.How much does it cost to hire an ARC Producer for a documentary?An ARC Producer's weekly rate ranges from approximately $2,500 to $3,500. Senior, veteran ARC Producers typically command $3,500 per week, while junior producers are available at lower rates. Veteran ARC Producers are often worth the higher rate because their long-standing relationships with stock houses, archives, and rights holders can save the production thousands of dollars through negotiated rates. Most documentary productions hire ARC Producers in pre-production rather than at the end of post-production to maximize cost savings.DocuView DEJA VU PICKSTeddy Cannon recommends two films:Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary (HBO, 2024). A genre-defining archival documentary where the ARC Producer received a third billing credit, a recognition Teddy says reflects the rising value of the archival role in modern documentary.Kiss the Future (Paramount+, 2024). The U2 documentary about the siege of Sarajevo, built on rare archival footage that, in Teddy's words, literally makes the piece.SPONSORED BY VIRGIL FILMS ENTERTAINMENThttps://www.virgilfilms.comABOUT THE GUESTTeddy Cannon is a veteran media producer, ARC Producer, and tech entrepreneur with over a decade of experience in archival sourcing and rights clearance for documentary and clip-based television.

U 367. epizodi Pojačala, Ivan razgovara sa Draganom Močevićem, čovekom čiji je životni put autentična balkanska priča o preživljavanju, snalažljivosti i neuništivom duhu. Od odrastanja u predratnom Sarajevu koje je tada bilo kulturni "melting pot" Jugoslavije, preko ratnog vihora i početaka od apsolutne nule u Banjaluci, Dragan nas vodi kroz svoje neverovatno putovanje. Kroz prizmu anegdota o pionirskim danima televizije i radija 90-ih, preko prodaje salama iz kombija, pa sve do vrhunskih menadžerskih lekcija stečenih u multinacionalnom gigantu kakav je L'Oréal, ova epizoda donosi savršen spoj nostalgije i iskrenih poslovnih saveta.

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.

Scott Simon visits Troy Public Radio to discuss his book Ulysses S. Cat and Other Animals I Have Known, a collection of essays about the animals that have impacted his life, from family pets like the cat Ulysses and the poodle Daisy to animals encountered during his travels, such as a zebra in the Serengeti and dogs in war-torn Sarajevo.

"I'm going to get rid of the day job because it's getting in the way of doing more interesting stuff." Ben Legg   Ben Legg and I talk about what it actually takes to build a portfolio career and why the people drawn to it tend to share a particular kind of independent bloody mindedness. Ben brings his own journey from the Royal Engineers to McKinsey to Google to founding the Portfolio Collective, a 16,000-strong global community for portfolio professionals. He's a pragmatic optimist about the trade-offs: the freedom, the loneliness, the accountability and the discipline of thinking of yourself as a business of one. We get into what makes work fun, what the army taught him about staying calm when no one's actually dying and why he thinks the biggest shift ahead isn't AI itself but the move from doing to orchestrating. We close with one eye on the future of work, of education, of what a good life might look like when the drudgery falls away and human ingenuity gets to do what it does best. Ben Legg is the former COO of Google Europe. As a board member and advisor across multiple industries, he is heavily involved in building disruptive businesses, as well as advising Wall Street investors and governments on AI strategy, realities and digital disruption. Ben's career has been defined by high-stakes leadership, turnarounds and hypergrowth. From serving as a British Army Officer during the Siege of Sarajevo to running the turnaround of Coca-Cola India to defining and leading hypergrowth at Google, he brings a unique "warrior-to-boardroom" perspective.

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.

Cinzia Cognetti"Note a margine del mio dolore"Harper Collinswww.harpercollins.itQuando Eva, giovane praticante avvocata a Roma, è costretta a tornare a Bari perché il padre ha deciso di vendere la villa di famiglia, la morte della madre Ambra riemerge in modo dirompente.A casa, l'odore è lo stesso di sempre, e a Eva sembra di sentire ancora lo schiocco del bacio di sua madre sulla fronte, l'acciottolio dei bicchieri che impilava nel pensile, la voce di lei che la chiama. Ora Eva deve scegliere cosa buttare, cosa conservare. Gonne, giacche in tartan, pantaloni di seta, abiti sapientemente cuciti dalle mani agili di Ambra. E in fondo all'armadio, un diario nascosto rivela un amore segreto e un passato che Eva non sapeva esistesse, intrecciato con un uomo di nome Fabio e con gli orrori dell'assedio di Sarajevo. Il nome di quell'uomo sconosciuto diventa per Eva un mistero e una soglia, l'inizio di un viaggio dentro una storia che non le è stata mai raccontata, ma che esisteva ben prima di lei.Eva, però, non è sola. Accanto a lei c'è Valentina, conosciuta al Vanilla Lips, un labirinto di velluto e luci soffuse in cui valgono regole diverse da quelle del giorno. Ed è proprio qui, in questo luogo ai margini, che prende forma un legame tra donne fatto di ascolto e responsabilità reciproca, uno spazio di fiducia in cui Eva imparerà a riconoscersi.Nel suo romanzo d'esordio, Cinzia Cognetti, con una scrittura vivida ed evocativa, firma una storia di formazione intensa e luminosa, in cui il lutto e il dolore sono il varco attraverso cui costruire la propria identità. Diventare adulti, sembra dirci, significa accettare che le persone che amiamo non coincidano con il nostro racconto di loro. E solo riconoscendone il mistero possiamo, forse, riconoscere noi stessi.Cinzia Cognetti è pugliese e vive a Bari. Fa il suo esordio letterario nel 2010 con lo pseudonimo di Alexis C. ed è tra i vincitori del concorso di microletteratura indetto da Feltrinelli Editore.Nel 2017 crea il blog “Living 108”, in cui intervista esponenti del mondo della cultura, e nel 2018 pubblica la raccolta di racconti Scatole nere con Les Flaneurs Edizioni di Bari.Dal 2022 è editorialista per il magazine «Amazing Puglia» e nel 2024 è tra i vincitori del concorso “18 anni di Gelsorosso”.Ha scritto svariati racconti pubblicati in antologie e testate giornalistiche non solo nazionali.Nel corso degli anni ha sempre partecipato attivamente a eventi letterari in librerie, programmi televisivi, trasmissioni radio e festival, non solo come scrittrice ma anche in veste di direttrice artistica, intervistatrice o ospite.È docente di scrittura creativa ed editor.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Per oltre trent'anni, il presunto fenomeno dei “safari umani” a Sarajevo è rimasto ai margini del racconto pubblico. Eppure oggi quella storia è tornata con forza al centro del dibattito, rompendo un silenzio lungo decenni. Il merito – o la responsabilità – è soprattutto dello scrittore Ezio Gavazzeni, che con il suo libro I cecchini del weekend ha riaperto una ferita mai del tutto chiusa. Attraverso un lavoro di ricerca durato anni e culminato in un esposto alla Procura di Milano, Gavazzeni ha trasformato un racconto oscuro in un caso giudiziario concreto, portando magistrati e opinione pubblica a interrogarsi su ciò che sarebbe accaduto durante l'assedio di Sarajevo.Nel ricostruire questo sistema, Gavazzeni introduce testimoni chiave, che avrebbero partecipato o assistito direttamente ai safari, descrivendo logiche economiche e modalità operative agghiaccianti. Tuttavia, il suo impianto narrativo viene messo in discussione da altri intervistati: Andrea Angeli, ex rappresentante UNPROFOR, evidenzia incongruenze sul ruolo delle istituzioni italiane e sull'assenza di riscontri ufficiali, mentre Mario Boccia, fotografo e giornalista testimone diretto dell'assedio di Sarajevo, invita alla cautela, sottolineando come il contesto estremo della guerra possa aver alimentato voci e interpretazioni distorte. Entrambi riconoscono la brutalità del conflitto, ma si mostrano scettici rispetto alla sistematicità del fenomeno descritto da Gavazzeni.A rafforzare, almeno in parte, le ipotesi del libro interviene il giornalista croato Domagoj Margetic, che amplia il quadro collegando i safari umani a strutture paramilitari e ai vertici della politica balcanica. Margetic suggerisce l'esistenza di insabbiamenti e pressioni politiche che avrebbero impedito di far emergere la verità già negli anni '90. In questo contesto, I cecchini del weekend diventa non solo un'opera narrativa ma un elemento attivo nel riaprire il caso, stimolando indagini giudiziarie e dibattito internazionale. Rimane però una tensione irrisolta tra denuncia e verifica: mentre Gavazzeni sostiene che “tutti sapessero”, gli altri interlocutori invitano a distinguere tra ipotesi, prove e memoria, in un terreno ancora segnato da traumi e verità parziali.

durée : 00:58:59 - Grand Reportage - par : Aurélie Kieffer - Malgré les violences au Proche-Orient et la montée de l'antisémitisme et de l'islamophobie en Europe, juifs et musulmans coexistent sans tensions majeures à Sarajevo, ville multiculturelle qui a toujours entretenu le "komsiluk", le bon voisinage. - réalisation : Annie Brault - invités : Rémy Ourdan Correspondant de guerre au Monde; Vladimir-Claude Fišera historien spécialiste du monde slave, poète et traducteur de poésie bosnienne, ancien professeur d'histoire contemporaine à l'Université de Strasbourg

Upad UKP-a u Rektorat, lete motke po Kuli i baka glasa sa kvada - analiziramo još jedan praznik demokratije na kom je policija čuvala oblake umesto glasača. Njuzovci detaljno seciraju izborni inženjering na lokalnim izborima u Kuli, Boru, Aranđelovcu i ostalim opštinama. Posebnu pažnju posvetili smo herojima dana: policajcima koji su stoički i profesionalno okretali glavu dok su batinaši lomili noseve posmatračima, kao i baki koja je na biračko mesto dovezena kvadom (jer pristupačnost pre svega). Takođe, bavimo se i postizbornom depresijom vlasti koja se pretvorila u upad Uprave kriminalističke policije (UKP) u Rektorat Univerziteta u Beogradu. Saznajte kako je Ana Brnabić pokušala da izdominira pred profesorima, i zašto Dragan J. Vučićević bolje poznaje patologiju od samih patologa.

durée : 00:06:12 - Grand Reportage - par : Aurélie Kieffer - Trente ans après la fin du siège de Sarajevo, un autre conflit, la guerre au Proche-Orient, bouleverse les habitants. Ils sont, en majorité, indignés par le sort des Palestiniens de Gaza. Des manifestations de soutien ont lieu régulièrement. - réalisation : Annie Brault

durée : 00:06:17 - Grand Reportage - par : Aurélie Kieffer - Pendant le siège de Sarajevo (1992-1995), la population de la ville a subi au quotidien des bombardements, des tirs de snipers et des privations. Plus de 11 500 personnes ont été tuées. Une organisation caritative juive, la Benevelencija, a joué un rôle très important pendant cette période. - réalisation : Annie Brault

durée : 00:06:02 - Grand Reportage - par : Aurélie Kieffer - Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, près de 66 000 des 80 000 juifs de Yougoslavie ont été exterminés par les nazis et les oustachis. Une grande partie de la Bosnie a été intégrée dans l'État indépendant de Croatie, dirigé par Ante Pavelic, le chef du mouvement fasciste oustachi. - réalisation : Annie Brault

durée : 00:05:03 - Grand Reportage - par : Aurélie Kieffer - À l'instar d'autres villes, Sarajevo propose un "tour juif", un circuit touristique centré sur le patrimoine juif de la cité. Mais contrairement à d'autres capitales européennes, Sarajevo n'a jamais connu de ghettos juifs. - réalisation : Annie Brault

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.

Benjamin Netanyahu recently admitted he'd spent 40 years waiting for an American president willing to attack Iran. In Donald Trump, he finally found one. But was this a strategy — or a panic? Professor Zlatko Hadžidedić, one of the Balkans' most incisive geopolitical minds, argues it's neither chess nor grand design. It's a desperate gamble by a declining empire that didn't fully understand what it was getting into — and the consequences may reshape the entire global order. In this conversation, we go deep on:

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.

Da li je Srbija postala sat bez kazaljki na kružnom toku? U novoj epizodi Njuz Podkasta seciramo Vučićev debakl kod Gorislava Papića na RTS-u, merenje raketa sa Hrvatskom i objašnjavamo zašto su beogradski studenti preko noći postali "Talibani" i "Crveni Kmeri". Uz to, rešavamo misteriju Šapićevog sata od 6 tona, gledamo kako Miša Vacić salutira fašistima u Rimu i dajemo vam besplatan "life hack" sa piši-briši hemijskom za sledeće izbore. Ako nas uhapse zbog ovog podkasta, dogovorili smo se ko koga vadi iz zatvora (ali samo utorkom).
