In Frankreich hat sich die sogenannte Koalition der Willigen mit Ukraines Präsident Selenskyj getroffen. Und ein weiteres Bündnis geschmiedet, das die ukrainische und europäische Raketenabwehr stärken soll. Hat doch die Ukraine derzeit kaum Mittel, russische Angriffe mit ballistischen Raketen abzufangen. Astrid Corall erklärt, was genau sich hinter der neuen Koalition verbirgt. Außerdem berichtet sie über weitere Ergebnisse des Pariser Treffens, über die aktuelle Lage an der Front und wie die Ukraine mit gezielten Angriffen auf russische Schiffe im Asowschen Meer versucht, die Versorgung des russischen Militärs auf der Krim zu stören.Der Konflikt zwischen dem Iran und den USA ist wieder voll entflammt, es gibt gegenseitige Angriffe. US-Präsident Trump hat angekündigt, die Seeblockade gegen Schiffe, die iranische Häfen ansteuern oder verlassen, wieder aufzunehmen. Mehr noch: er will für die Fahrt durch die Straße von Hormus Geld verlangen. Was nicht nur im Iran auf deutliche Kritik stößt.Im Schwerpunkt dieser Ausgabe spricht Kai Küstner mit dem Analysten und Afrika-Kenner Thomas Schiller über fehlende globale Strategien Europas sowie über Krisen und Kriege von Mali über den Sudan bis hin zu Dschibuti, wo derzeit zwei deutsche Marine-Schiffe auf einen möglichen Einsatz im Persischen Golf warten. Was den Nachbarkontinent angeht, sei das ein strategisches Versagen, sagt Schiller, der lange in Mali gelebt hat. Russland etwa nutzt seit Jahren das Machtvakuum in der Sahel-Region, das durch den Rückzug westlicher Truppen entstanden ist. Europa müsse jenseits der Ukraine eine belastbare Strategie entwickeln und sich - gerade in Afrika - nicht immer nur punktuell engagieren.Lob und Kritik, alles bitte per Mail an streitkraefte@ndr.deInterview mit Sicherheitsexperte Thomas Schillerhttps://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/audio-3357556.htmlEuropäisches Bündnis zur Abwehr russischer Raketenhttps://www.tagesschau.de/ausland/europa/ukraine-buendnisraketenabwehr-europa-100.htmlAlle Folgen von "Streitkräfte und Strategien"https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/info/podcast2998.htmlPodcast-Tipp: "0630 - der News Podcast"https://1.ard.de/0630_News-Podcast?pt=sus

Being that the 2026 Independent Hotel Show Miami is only a couple of months away, this special IHS Series episode features the VP of Development, U.S. & Canada at Minor Hotels, Genna Panagopoulos!  Genna joins the Suite Spot podcast to discuss: The Minor Hotels Brand & Special Announcements The Independent & Lifestyle Hotel Landscape The 2026 Independent Hotel Show Creating Unique Experiences for Travelers And much more. Ryan Embree: Welcome to Suite Spot, where hoteliers check in, and we check out what’s trending in hotel marketing. I’m your host, Ryan Embree. Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of The Suite Spot. This is your host, Ryan Embree. We are here for the second season of our Independent Hotel Show series. That means we are gearing up, if you can believe it, for the Independent Hotel Show here in September and Miami Beach. I am so excited and equally excited to bring in a familiar voice. We had her on the podcast just a couple months ago in New York City, Genna Panagopoulos, VP of Development North America at Minor Hotels. Genna, welcome back to the Suite Spot. Genna Panagopoulos: Hey, thanks for having me again. Ryan Embree: Yeah, excited to have you. We were talking off camera. Typically, I usually do the virtual interview before meeting you in person, so this is a little bit more comfortable here, virtually back in, in, I think you’re in Atlanta. I’m here in our TMG headquarters in Orlando, but second time on the Suite Spot. We really didn’t get to get into your hospitality background, kind of a tradition here. Wanna introduce you to our audience a little bit more, intimately and in depth. Talk to us a little bit about your background in hospitality and the journey that led you to Minor Hotels. Genna Panagopoulos: Well, it starts a long time ago because I grew up in the hospitality industry. Typical greek immigrant story. My father came here with just a few dollars in his pocket and ended up building a pretty successful restaurant business in Detroit. So if you ever are in Detroit, if you say Jimmy, the Greek people will know him. But I went to, I obviously grew up in Michigan, went to Michigan State, really, and started studying hospitality with the intent of taking over the restaurant business. And then I did an internship for my father and realized I did not love it as much as he did. And so I ended up falling into the hotel space and specifically hotel investment, real estate development, and have just fallen in love ever since I started my career at Davidson Hotels and Resorts back when they were in Memphis, actually on their business development team. And then they moved to Atlanta, ironically, next to IHGs headquarters. So I was with Davidson for a few years, hopped in over to IHG, where I was for 10 years, did everything from feasibility to business development to even brand, which is a little bit unique. And I don’t wanna undermine that because I had a lot of people say at the time, why would a developer ever go to brand? Like, that’s, you’re where you wanna be. But for me, it was so critical to kind of unlocking new opportunities in the future because the skills I gained in a year and a half on the team work just the role that I’m in now is super helpful because it’s, it’s kind of like wearing two different hats, right? A creative versus a mathematician. So anyways, I was there at IHD for 10 years, and then this opportunity at Minor came up last summer. I was so ready and excited to take on like a new challenge and I thought that it’d be a really fun and exciting new endeavor for me with this combination of my background. So, it’s exciting. Minor’s been super supportive and it’s a little weird to go from working in an office with thousands of colleagues to being the one of one in an entire continent, but it’s been great so far. Ryan Embree: Yeah. And what a unique opportunity. We’re gonna talk about that here in a moment because I think it’s absolutely fascinating. But your story is very familiar. I mean that we hear all the time from our guests, a lot of them start in that f&b kind of space and then transition over to the hospitality side, but super comprehensive skillset, which I’m sure has set you up for success in your role at Minor Hotels. Now, we met face to face at NYU IHIF, where just a couple weeks removed. I call this kind of takeaway season where everybody’s on LinkedIn, kind of frantically typing their takeaways and what they felt about the state of the industry right now, what we’re looking back on New York City, maybe you could start kind of zoomed in version of how that event for you and then maybe back up with an industry lens on some of the biggest takeaways from your time at New York City. Genna Panagopoulos: So from a Minor perspective, we had a really successful conference. So we had tons of meetings while we were there. Really good ones too, on some deals that were hopefully perpetuating. And then we’ll be announcing maybe by the Independent Boutique Hotel Show, but it was, the energy was very live, the excitement for Minor Hotels, was very visceral people, I think, you know, hoteliers are really looking for brands that understand their position. And because Minor is, you know, I always describe it as an owner first, then an operator, now a brand, right? And we still own an owner lease a vast majority of our portfolio. So we know what it’s like to be in their shoes, quite honestly. So it was a successful, like I said, the energy was there. It’s very validating to know that a lot of our marketing is working and all of the, the word of mouth and the fact that we’re out there, iI’m having to educate people less and less with every conference about who we are. So that’s great. Zooming out on an industry lens, you know, I think, you know, even just looking at beginning of the year to NYU IHIF, this sentiment is very different, right? You know, at the beginning of the year there was so much excitement over the World Cup. You and I spoke about that at NYU and it’s, it’s obviously been tempered quite a bit, and the K economy is still happening. We’re seeing luxury, the rates of the projects that I’m working on, I’m just shocked at how high they are and, how well the competitors are doing in the upper luxury space. It’s really fascinating. So I’m definitely seeing that as well. But the sentiment, and appetite to grow is definitely there. People are still looking to place equity, not ton, not huge amounts, but we’re, we’re seeing that there are still gaps on that front. Ryan Embree: The resiliency of our industry, I think, continues, right? It just, the momentum there, every single time we see a headwind, we continue to push through, which is really, really cool to see that owner. And, and from a development, I mean, new brands, new projects being announced, this is the space that we’d love to see, you know, more and more because there’s more and more demand growing travelers continue to prioritize travel and the experience economy, which is great for us hoteliers. So we just need some more rooms here, which is obviously what you’re tasked with, right, Jenna? So, but I wanna talk about Minor Hotels. I know you talked about needing a little less education now, but educate us here on the Suite Spot. I mean, Minor Hotels, brand spanning from select service all the way up to that ultra luxury segment ton of brands. They don’t have time for all of them today, but maybe you could share some of your personal favorites and within the hotel, Minor Hotels portfolio, what makes those brands unique? Genna Panagopoulos: Yeah, sure. So yeah, like you said, we now have 12 different brands, four of which were launched last year right before I joined the company. But we have these two lineages, I think within Minor Hotels history, right? We have our roots, which come from Thailand, and Anantara and Avani are great examples of that. And then we have our European roots from acquisitions over the years. So we’ve got brands like…that came from Portugal, NH, which is a very established brand out of Madrid. The four that we launched last year, offer really unique things that we never had before in our portfolio. So as we were looking to grow, we knew that that was something we’d have to have to kind of have on our menu of options for potential hotels, because some of these brands don’t work in every asset type and not every market, though most of our brands have a lot of flexibility to be able to grow into different asset types. But I guess my favorite, and I’m really excited about the Wolseley hotel brand we launched last year. So Minor International owns, which of course, Banner Hotels Resorts is a part of, owns Wolseley Hospitality Group out of London. And there’s a really beautiful institutional restaurant called the Wolseley that’s very famous. If you ask anybody from London, they definitely know the Wolseley. In fact, most people I know that just traveled to London know the Wolseley. So we own, we own that company and decided to take that brand into the hotel space, which is interesting because it’s a restaurant moving into the hotel world. And our first one will open in New York next year, but it’s been really fast. I think it’s really fascinating. There’s a lot of membership club opportunities with that one. And so that’s kind of an new trend we’re starting to see in the luxury space. Ryan Embree: It’s gotta be great to be able to have that breadth and spectrum of property or investment type for an owner to come in and say, this is maybe the market that I’m interested in pursuing, and then figuring out and kind of curating and tailoring what asset, what brand is gonna fit best there. And we talked about this a little at NYU, but I think, again, your job is so fascinating. You have this well-established, extremely popular worldwide brand, and here you are tasked with bringing it into the North American market, right? I’m sure there’s a lot of envious developers out there, what has been kind of, and really you only get to launch a brand like this into a new market only once. So what has been kind of your approach, Jen? I’d love to get kind of the background on what’s been your approach and what kind of feedback you’ve been initially hearing. Have owners been kind of waiting for this, you know, to arrive here and, and what are you hearing from owners right now? Genna Panagopoulos: It’s a tale of two stories as they say, right? So in the luxury space, there’s so much excitement. We are very established, people in that space know us, and wanna be the first to help us develop here. So that’s where we’ve seen the vast majority of our interest. Now, when you shift to looking at some of the upper upscale through the select service brands that we now also offer franchise, which I don’t know the stat off the top of my head, but it is a large component of those properties, those segments are operated by third parties and franchised. So being that we’re newer into that space, that’s where the challenge has been. So, but yeah, in terms of the hardest thing and I have to tackle every day is where do I spend my time? Because there’s constantly deals coming my way. We have to, we have to be quite strategic and mindful about what has the most likelihood of being the best representation of our brand in our target markets. So early on, when I started, I think the first four weeks of me taking the role, I had developed a pretty cohesive development strategy of where we wanted to spend that time. And where that is really any of the top, let’s call it 20 markets in the US that have international demand. So we have top markets that don’t have as much international demand, and we’ll look at those, but we just think that our value is gonna come from driving international business into these hotels. And then totally opposite from that, with Anantara, our, you know, wellness, upper luxury experiential brand. We are really excited about finding deals in kind of everywhere else except for those urban markets, right? So hard to get to places. Last week I was driving through Utah and Colorado, six hours in between each of them. So just to give you a little flavor, we were looking at a couple different opportunities in those states. You know, Hudson Valley is somewhere we wanna be Montana, Wyoming. So, you know, it’s a little bifurcated our approach to our various brands. But we’re trying to be very diligent and strategic about it. So we don’t get distracted by things that aren’t going to help us grow here. Because once we have good examples, we really believe the first few have to be really good. Once we have those, we’ll be able to drive further, further growth at a more quick pace. Ryan Embree: Yeah, no, absolutely. And what you were talking about how best to spend your time, I think that’s a, a challenge that hoteliers have had since the dawn of this industry. But it’s very exciting and very cool to hear those different approaches because, you know, you have the privilege of having that background, of having that history and, and culture already built over an in another market, bringing that here. But you also have the exciting new flavor of providing something new, maybe in some, some very experiential markets right now, which experiential travel is just absolutely exploding another traveler trend right now. And you already have some several success stories we touched on at NYU. Let’s dive a little deeper into some of those projects, Genna. Genna Panagopoulos: Yeah, so we’ve got, I guess our next one that I’ve already kinda spilled the beans on it, but the releases are already out there, but the first Wolseley in the world will be opening next year in New York in the former Lambs Club property. And I think it’s just such a fantastic market to open the first Wolseley hotel. You know, theoretically it could have been in London and hopefully we do have one in London soon, but it’s a very special cherished brand and it’s not the one thing I also just wanna spend a moment on, even though it’s luxury and it’s this very quintessential British kind of formal service style, it’s egalitarian at its roots, it’s really meant for everybody. So you could walk into the, into the Wolseley in London and see celebrities next to politicians and you’re Joe Schmo walking in off the street, you don’t need a reservation. And so I think it’s a really beautiful evolution of the, of the history of that brand. And I’m so excited for it to land in New York. Ryan Embree: So we can announce right now in 2027. The Suite Spot will be on site. We can do nice little episode up there hopefully. Genna Panagopoulos: Next, next conference in New York. We’ll be able to do it there. Ryan Embree: Alright. Genna Panagopoulos: Yes. And then a little, actually, I guess the next one that’ll open in 2029 is Anantara Turks and Caicos, which is a 100% residential hotel, really, really beautiful resort heavy wellness, you’ll find with Anantara. We really lean into the wellness, longevity space. And so, we pride ourselves on always being at the forefront of the latest wellness, the direction wellness is going. And so longevity, for example, right now is very important to us. And we’re seeing that bleed into the residential space. So, you know, just the way that’s getting threaded into the residential experience, into the hotel guest experiences is very fascinating to watch. And then in 2030, we’ll also have another Anantara in Miami, very close to design district. It’s kind of at the epicenter of where design district, Edgewater and Midtown all meet the views from the hotel will be incredible. There’ll be a helipad, a 30,000 square foot spa. And then a mix of hotel rooms, residences that people are living in, and then also residences that can get rented out to hotel guests as well. So we are super excited, I think, you know, having these three hotels in these three markets, right? We’ve covered New York where we already have a hotel, by the way, the NH collection, Madison Avenue, we’ve had there for a few years, which we actually own. And then, you know, Miami, which is a key market, obviously very heavy international demand, but just if you had to tell me to pick one plate, one urban market to put it an Anantara, that would be it. And then Turks and Caicos is such a important market for U.S. leisure travel. So these couldn’t have been better, better markets for us to be entering and launching region. Ryan Embree: Congratulations. What a strong pipeline and really cool projects you’re working on, excited to kind of see those and the announcements as they start to roll in and the pictures, those views that you’re talking about. But I think, you know, the Turks and Caicos property is something we’ve been talking about on the podcast. That CALA region is also booming right now. So, you know, it’s not just, I think sometimes when we say, you know, obviously bringing into the North American market, we tend to go a little bit more domestic, but to expand that into CALA I think is gonna be absolutely critical. ’cause you’re right, so much of that US domestic travel is now spending, you know, time and money in those areas, and looking a little bit more towards that for their experiences. So exciting all around. And of course we love, you know, we’re based here in Florida, so we’d love a new project. We’ll, we’ll definitely be keeping an eye on that Miami project that you have. But this is speaking of Miami, this is our independent hotel show series. Talk to us, you know, why you feel some of the Minor Hotel brands fit within this independent and lifestyle category. And what advantages do you see independent hotels or even experiential brands and lifestyle brands have in today’s hospitality landscape? Genna Panagopoulos: I’ll answer that last question first. If you don’t have that experiential, that’s table stakes today. So, we’re, I believe we’re only gonna see that become more and more important as the years go on. Because if you look at the consumer data of what the younger demographic, where they’re spending their money, it’s not experiences. It’s not, it’s no longer on goods. So having these really cool, unique experiences that they can travel and and receive is gonna be critical in terms of what we have to offer for independent hoteliers, keep in mind this is our roots, right? We started our, our company was founded by Bill Heineke, who, fun fact, and I can’t remember if I’ve already told you this, but the reason we’re called Minor is that he went to go start his business at a very young age of 17. And when he was getting his his business license, they said, sorry, but you need an adult to sign with you ’cause you’re a minor. So he’s really one of those serial entrepreneurs, wicked smart, wicked great at launching businesses, but he was an independent hotelier. That’s how he got his start. So he’s still driving a lot of the vision of the company. And I could tell you coming from a larger brand company into this environment, it is incredibly entrepreneurial. And because we also own hotels, but also operate for a lot of our owners, we truly believe we have this, like this hotelier mindset. We’re more of an operator than we are a brand at this moment. And so I think that could help lend itself to independent owners who are looking for a little bit of support. And we’re here to lean in as much as they want and as little as they want, but there’s benefits to it, right? We can help save on OTA costs, we can help save on purchasing. We’ve got great technology to help with forecasting and revenue management and and so on. So there’s definitely places to tap in. And I think particularly now more than ever with our two collection brands that we launched last year, so I started telling you this, but I didn’t finish telling you the brands that we launched, but two of them that we launched last year are collections. One is minor reserve collection, which is in the luxury space. And then Colbert collection, which is more upper upscale, maybe entry luxury. And those are just such, they’re primed for independent hotels, right? That’s why they were launched. To be able to keep the heritage and the name of an independent hotel play off of it, but then get all the back support, all the things behind the scenes that consumers will really never see, but it’ll help make operations much more efficient and smooth. And so we think that’s where there’s a lot of opportunity and we’re, you know, we’re priding ourselves on that. We’re here to be a partner and not a brand that’s telling you have to do it this way. So that’s where we’re really thinking this is the opportunity for us in that space. Ryan Embree: Well, it says, it says a lot that, to have two collection brands dedicated to that space really shows the investment in the future of these kind of independently run or branded properties and see the opportunity there because again, looking, you mentioned the lens and view challenges about independent hotelier and brand is very different from those big brands that have the scale to kind of combat those challenges a little bit more efficiently. So, you know, independent hotels, we always talk about on this series specifically are looking for any edge or opportunity to differentiate themselves to the traveler because they are really first in line to present a one of a kind experience. If you think about it, one of those places is f&b, a trend that obviously Minor Hotels has taken and ran with, especially with converting a f&b brand to hospitality brand. How have you leveraged the f&b theme with potential owners and when you’re having these conversations with investors, as you look to bring Minor Hotels to North America? Genna Panagopoulos: Yeah, so, well first we have a, when I was doing my onboarding in Madrid and Amsterdam, I toured our Anantara in Amsterdam and they had just, maybe they, a couple months before they had just concluded a chef series where they brought I believe 20 or 30 Michelin rated chefs under their roof and had a food festival, which I had never seen that. Like how amazing to bring. I didn’t know that, that that many Michelin chefs would be side by side cooking for each other, right? But it’s a really special thing. And I think that shows you that Minor is very credible in this super experiential high end f&b space separate to that. And so we have the talent in-house. Separate from that, when you look at our brands and the way our Colbert brand, for example, our Colbert, I don’t even wanna call it a brand ’cause it’s a collection. It’s not really a brand the way we thread food and beverage into the guest experience, right? So each hotel is completely unique within the collection. We don’t want any two to really look alike, to be honest with you. But as part of the one ritual that you can, that you can count on as a guest at every Colbert is a food and beverage driven experience. So whether that’s a bespoke cocktail that’s mixed for you, right as you enter the door, or maybe, after you’ve checked in and you’re in your room, a bell cart is a food and beverage bell cart of sorts is delivering a special experience to your door something that ties back to the identity that the hotel has, but is very curated and special, right? Not something that’s like a here’s the, the chocolate chip cookies we made today. No. Right? We want something really beautiful, thoughtful, creative, and that shows the craft in it that either ties to the experience or the identity of the hotel. So I think that’s really important and those little things go a very long way. Ryan Embree: A hundred percent. And those are the little things that add up in the independent hoteliers world that can, you can have the edge, right? And I mean there’s a whole now space with food tourism. I mean, it’s got a name for it now. That’s how large this trend is. And hoteliers are looking at F&B very, very differently than they did five, 10 years ago. It was a first a place where they started to look and say, where can we cut costs? Where can we make efficiencies? Now the brands that I think are doing it right are leaning into it. They’re seeing it as a part of their guest experience and also a huge opportunity for their local markets too. I think people, you know, in locally have looked at through a different lens at what a hotel F&B experience can be. And when someone comes to town, they might not be going to that restaurant. They might be going to a hotel or a resort, and it having that experience there. So very interested to see, right. Genna Panagopoulos: It’s, I don’t mean to interrupt you. But I just wanna say, I was recently having the conversation because when I started in the industry, we would joke, you could, you could like blow a cannon through a hotel restaurant. Nobody wanted to go to a hotel restaurant. Back in the day, they were cool. And it was like, oh, I’m staying at this hotel, meet me at the restaurant. But for a while, you didn’t wanna go to a hotel restaurant. It was vanilla, it was boring, it had no identity. It was just an extension. It was just a restaurant within a hotel. Now it’s such an important driver of bringing people to that hotel, whether local or visiting from out of town. And so there’s such an opportunity. I just, I look back at the time that those hotel restaurants were not attractive. And now I’m like, no, it’s such a beautiful component to an experience and I’ve seen really amazing destination hotels that are operated by the operators, but have a totally unique identity that’s very strong and compatible with the hotel, but not homogenous with the hotel. Ryan Embree: Absolutely. It’s very, very cool to see that evolution. And I think it’s only, again, as the trend continues to grow, I think it’s only gonna get stronger. You’re gonna see more emphasis on that f&b experience. And I personally can’t wait. Because I love those types of experiences to kind of see that evolve. And we’re gonna learn a little bit about maybe some of your favorite f&b experiences within the portfolio here. So let’s do my favorite part of the episode. Some rapid fire to get to know you Genna and the Minor Hotel portfolio a little bit better. Let’s start with one of your, you talked about maybe future favorite views at your property, but right now what is one of the favorite views at your properties in the portfolio? Genna Panagopoulos: I know you’re trying to do rapid fire, but of course I’ll just story tell a little bit. Ryan Embree: No, not at all. Please. Genna Panagopoulos: The Avani in Amsterdam, I had the opportunity during my onboarding with Minor to go to Amsterdam for a few days. Because we have a ton of hotels in Amsterdam. And I got to stay there and I woke up, I think it was a Sunday morning, and I had one of the upper level rooms and floor to ceiling windows. And I just, I watched the city wake up. It was so cool to see the sunrise from my room, but also the canals were coming to life. People were in boats and I had this cup of coffee and they had a great lounge here. And it’s not, it’s not a fancy hotel, right? It’s an approachable lifestyle of hotel. But it was really, it was so beautiful. I had this like Minor Magazine I was reading and I read the full thing. It was so lovely. And I’m actually taking my daughter there in a few, in two weeks, because I loved it so much. Ryan Embree: Very cool. Yeah. And she’ll get to have that view of the, the property as well. What about favorite fact? A fun fact about one of the properties? Genna Panagopoulos: Okay, so one of our new Colbert collections, that I believe is open now in Florence. It’s called Port Rosa, which it translates to Red Door. And it is actually one of the oldest, it might have been the first hotel actually in Italy and one of the first hotels in Europe. So it’s just so funny ’cause here we call our historic hotels 200 years old. And, and here we have like an 800 year old hotel. So I think that’s, I don’t think I could top that. Ryan Embree: Yeah, that puts it in perspective. Favorite signature dish? We talked about f&b experiences at one of the properties. Genna Panagopoulos: So I know I’m talking a lot about Amsterdam, but that was, it obviously left an impression on me, but at the Tivoli, which is one of our entry luxury brands, very well established in Europe, they really pride themselves on food and wine. And so culinary is a huge component of that experience. So I get to eat at the restaurant in the Tivoli called Ombre. And they really try to weave in creativity and art into the overall experience. And so they took it, they took inspiration from Rembrandt, and so Ombre is one of the 12 colors of Rembrandt’s palette. And so they, they had a beautiful way of weaving that into the food, the color of the food, the color of the menu, the names of the menu items. And it was just a beautiful, and you could watch the chef finish the food right at the entrance. And it was just, it was remarkable. It’s also on the canal. It was an evening candle lit room. It was beautiful. Ryan Embree: I mean the marketing team for some of these properties I’m sure has no shortage of content and storytelling. I mean, this is every hotel marketer’s dream. What about favorite guest experience or amenities at one of your properties? Genna Panagopoulos: That’s a good question. The, also in the Avani in Madrid, so, when I had wrapped up, I had trained in Madrid. I went to Amsterdam for a weekend, came back to Madrid to kind of give everybody my 2 cents of how the project or how the onboarding went. And I was only there for one or two nights. I was so tired. I had been gone for like two weeks. I missed my kids. But I came back and the Avani in Madrid as my welcome city had a smoothie set up. And I had never seen this, and I don’t even know if I’ll ever see this again, but they had a little, a little tiny, I think it’s called like a bullet blender, right? That I could blend in my room. They had the most beautiful, I don’t even know what fruit it was, but it was sweet. It was delicious. They had a variety of milks next to it that I could mix with the fruit, and then of course a little ice bucket and some honey. And it was just everything that I needed. I was so tired from being on the road and to come back and have this really like, cool, healthy, nutritious, it was so, it was like they were reading my mind of what I needed. And I’ve never been in a lot of amazing hotels. And again, Avani is not a luxury brand, but they totally nailed it. And then about an hour later after it, ’cause I had checked in fairly late in the day, they showed up at my door with this beautiful wind down tea set up, and it was, you know, tea can be hit or miss. Yeah, it was so beautifully floral and delicious. And I’m not even a tea drinker. And I loved every moment of it. And they had the most perfect cookie to compliment. Ryan Embree: It’s brilliant by the way, that smoothie, because it makes you a part of the process. It makes you feel a part of the experience. I’m sure a ton of people are sharing that on social media. They’re talking about it. I mean, how easy could it have been to just deliver a smoothie, but for you to kind of be a part of that experience, I think makes it a little bit more special. Very, very cool. I’ve never heard that either. Very cool. And then the last but not least, favorite piece of artwork at one of your properties? Genna Panagopoulos: Thats a tough one. Coming back to the fact that we have an NH hotel in Amsterdam called the Schiller, with tons of authentic Danish artwork. But I’ve also heard that the Tivoli Puerto Gaia has a lot of remarkable pieces. In fact, they have over 70 pieces of authentic art. One of my favorite artists is a Spanish artist…and his works are there. So I haven’t seen it in real life, but that’s on my bucket list. Ryan Embree: Well, I’ll tell you, this was probably the most internationally friendly rapid fire that we’ve had here. When asking these questions. You took us to Madrid, Amsterdam, Italy, all over the place. So, we’ll definitely, I can feel the hoteliers now doing some research on these hotels and planning their vacations. Let’s shift to the Independent Hotel show. It’s happening September 16th, 17th in Miami Beach. And remember Suite Spot listeners, don’t forget to use promo code Ryan26 for a complimentary registration. Genna, and I would love to see you there. Genna, you recently joined the show’s advisory board. Congratulations on that. What inspired you to get involved with this event and how do you see it supporting independent hoteliers? Genna Panagopoulos: First of all, thank you. And I’m really flattered to be on the advisory board. When we started our, when I was working through our development strategy as part of that, we were talking about the various conferences we wanted to attend. And we really think that we’re different from a lot of the big players that are already here, right? We’re trying to not be aligned with them, but a totally different offering. And so for us, it was really important that we find these independent hoteliers, boutique hoteliers that, again, are looking for somebody to help support them and maybe make their lives a little bit easier, but not be always watching over their shoulder. And so for us that this was perfect, I actually hadn’t come across it until they reached out to me. And it came about 48 hours after we had said, we need to find a show or a conference that has specifically this. And it just fell into our lap. And so we, it was, it was very serendipitous and we’re very excited. In fact, I hope we can continue to attend and I’ll be bringing my colleague from Mexico actually to help run the process with us while we’re there. So we’re excited. I also think that we could learn a lot of what independent hoteliers need and their challenges are and be able to help them out. Ryan Embree: Yeah, it’s a very, very unique event. I’ve had the privilege of being to the show since its inception a few years back. So much learning, there is something special when you put a group of independent hoteliers together in a room. The networking that goes down. It really is unlike any other event I’ve been to. So, again, hope you will join Genna and I in Miami Beach in September. We hope to see you there. As we wrap up today, we got a couple more minutes. What is your vision for the future of Minor Hotels in North America? Genna Panagopoulos: Listen, we don’t wanna be as big as everybody else that’s here, but we wanna have a really good foothold. I don’t think I mentioned this, but we have a little over 600 hotels worldwide, including in pipeline. And we’re really everywhere except for North America. And so it just feels like the right progression, of where we even have hotels in South America, in Mexico, right? So we’re really kind of closing in from all directions. And so we just wanna have good hotels here. Good representation on, fun fact, British and US travelers make up the majority of Anantara guests worldwide, even though we have no Anantara here in the U.S.. So, Norin England. So people want it, and I think once they’re here they will absolutely come. So we’re excited. We just want what we want. A good representation of hotels. Hopefully that’s somewhere around 20 to 30 hotels in the coming years. Ryan Embree: Well, you’re off to a super strong start. Congratulations again, Genna. It’s exciting to be here, kind of at the starting line of this Minor Hotel’s journey in North America. It will soon follow suit, like the rest of your brand is. So we’re excited to watch that unfold here in the upcoming years. Genna, thank you so much. We know you’re busy. You mentioned it before. We appreciate you taking your time, spending some time with us and talking about Minor Hotels and in the Independent Hotel Show. Again, we’re, we’re excited that we’ll both be attending there in Miami. And hope you will too. So Genna, thank you for your time. Genna Panagopoulos: Thanks for having me again.

"Camp of Wallenstein," the first play in Friedrich Schiller's Wallenstein Trilogy, immerses listeners in a Bohemian camp during the tumultuous Thirty Years War. Through the eyes of various subordinates, it introduces pivotal characters such as Albrecht von Wallenstein and Max Piccolomini, setting the stage for the complex interplay of power, loyalty, and ambition that unfolds in the subsequent works. This exploration of the human condition and the moral dilemmas faced in times of conflict remains relevant today, echoing themes of leadership and sacrifice that resonate in our contemporary world. Schiller's masterful character development and poignant dialogue invite reflection on the enduring nature of war and its impact on society.

Nos habita la imperiosa necesidad de ser y actuar como ecológicos. Dice Joaquín Araújo que “ser ecológicos sería, en parte, la propuesta anunciada por Schiller, Unamuno, Ortega y Pessoa, de convivir con todo, de fundir mente y corazón sin privilegios para ninguna de las partes". Hoy nos situamos contra la bulimia energética. Hablemos de energía nuclear.Y añade Araújo que “toda vida es una forma de combustión que necesita alimentarse, perpetuamente, con recursos energéticos. Y que toda cultura es una forma de encauzar energía en una determinada dirección. El momento civilizatorio actual, se caracteriza por un hiperconsumo de energías fósiles, despilfarradas por la notable ineficacia de los artefactos, que nos permiten un alto grado de comodidad. Pero también, también notabilísimos daños en los sistemas naturales”. Además, ya lo habrás oído, Francia está limitando su energía nuclear, por problemas de refrigeración, causados por la ola de calor. Y es que siguen surgiendo causas, efectos secundarios y otras cuestiones derivadas de las nucleares, años y años después.Escucharemos el texto escrito por Lucía Gimeno Berga, bióloga y educadora ambiental, titulado “Educar para el futuro, sobrevivir en el presente. Por qué nuestra dignidad laboral es la mejor herramienta contra el cambio climático”. Para que el futuro sea verde, feminista y rural. También contamos con Simone Firmani (que nos irá adelantando, semana a semana, los contenidos del Foro Social y músicas del próximo Rototom Sunsplash).

All ideas have a history, no matter how inevitable and well-entrenched they may seem to us today. The later Enlightenment was a heady time when people were exploring new conceptions of nature, humanity, and the self. Andrea Wulf is a writer of narrative histories, examining the origins of ideas through the lives of the people who explored them. In this episode we discuss three of her books: The Invention of Nature, about Alexander von Humboldt and environmentalism; Magnificent Rebels, about the Jena circle of Romantics including Goethe, Schiller, Schlegel, and others; and most recently The Traveller, about George Forster, an early naturalist, ethnographer, and champion of human equality.

We line up homemade builds, bottled ready-to-drink Old Fashioneds, and bar-style barrel-aged batches to answer a real question for bourbon fans: is the classic Old Fashioned still king, or have RTD cocktails finally gotten good enough to keep stocked year-round?  CT joins us as our resident mixologist and we get hands-on with what actually changes the drink: proof, dilution, bitters, sweeteners, citrus, cherries, ice, and even the weight of the rocks glass. We taste through popular options and talk straight about what works and what tastes like “every bad bar Old Fashioned,” including how to rescue an orange-heavy pour with lemon zest, or rebalance sweetness by cutting syrup and leaning into rye whiskey or higher proof bourbon.  We also dig into Old Fashioned history, from the 1806 cocktail definition to Prohibition-era muddled fruit, plus the Wisconsin Old Fashioned tradition with soda. Then we go full experiment mode with barrel-aged flavor, smoking tools, and a showstopper: a bacon fat washed Old Fashioned built with black walnut bitters, a touch of chocolate bitters, and barrel-aged maple syrup.  If you love bourbon cocktails, bitters, and practical home bartending tips, you'll want this one.

It's Garrett's first Percolated Media Presents podcast in quite awhile, and boy did he pick a doozy to come back to, as there are many many things to talk about this week! He starts things off with a 15 minute observation about what the last weekend in box office means for both the short term and long term. He also goes into Steven Spielberg's appearance on The Rewatchables podcast earlier this week, and what the box office numbers mean for not only the sinking Mandolorian and Grogu. But also this week's Masters of the Universe and Spielberg's own Disclosure Day, opening June 12th. He then talks to director Jeremiah Kipp. Kipp's newly released film The Mortuary Assistant has been taking the top spot on channel Shudder's most watched film. Kipp goes over things like what got him interested in filmmaking, how he approached adapting a very popular video game, what it was like appearing on the popular podcast The Movie Crypt (RIP Arwen), and soooo much more. We think you'll find Kipp to be a tremendously nice guy and we look forward to what he does next! Garrett then concludes the podcast with a wrap up of today's show as well as previews of upcoming retrospectives. With so much going on in the movie world, we can't see Percolated Media Presents laying dormant for long!

Weimar Was a Real Place Before It Became a Political WarningThe “Weimar Republic” has become shorthand for collapse, extremism, and economic chaos — but as historian and author Katja Hoyer argues in this episode of History Rage, Weimar was first and foremost a real town with a rich cultural history stretching back centuries. Home to Goethe, Schiller, Liszt and Nietzsche, Weimar was long considered the spiritual and intellectual heart of Germany before it ever became associated with democratic failure. In this fascinating conversation, Katja dismantles the clichés surrounding interwar Germany by exploring how ordinary people experienced extraordinary political change. Through the lives of Weimar residents — bookbinders, teachers, social democrats and shopkeepers — she reveals how hope, apathy, fear and economic despair gradually transformed a fragile democracy into a dictatorship. From the optimism surrounding Germany's first truly democratic elections in 1919 to the devastation of hyperinflation, the Great Depression, and the rise of Nazism, this episode explores how extremism becomes acceptable when people feel abandoned by politics. Katja explains why the Nazis initially remained a fringe movement, how the economic crash of 1929 changed everything, and why so many ordinary Germans convinced themselves to look away from the horrors developing around them. The discussion also examines Weimar's proximity to Buchenwald concentration camp and the uncomfortable realities of what civilians knew — or chose not to know — as Nazi brutality escalated. This is a powerful exploration of how democratic societies fracture, and why understanding the everyday experience of historical change matters now more than ever. Katja's new book, Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe, is available here: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9780241681244You can also hear Katja on her podcast Reichs and Republics, and follow her work here: Substack: https://www.katjahoyer.uk/X/Twitter: https://x.com/hoyer_kat

In Europa tobt der Zweite Weltkrieg. Die Nazis wüten, und auch die Schweiz zittert. In Zürich jedoch wird Theater gespielt. Das Schauspielhaus erlebt seinen Höhepunkt als Emigrantentheater – und wird zum Symbol der geistigen Landesverteidigung. Nach Ferdinand Riesers Abgang durchlebt das Emigranten-Ensemble am Schauspielhaus eine unsichere Zeit, geprägt von der Angst, Arbeit zu verlieren und den Nazis in die Hände zu fallen. Kurt Hirschfeld rettet die Bühne, indem er mit einflussreichen Bürgern und Stadtpräsident Emil Klöti die neue Schauspiel AG gründet und Gelder akquiriert. Direktor wird der als unpolitisch geltende Schweizer Oskar Wälterlin, nicht Hirschfeld, um Risiken durch den Nazi-Druck zu vermeiden. Hirschfeld arbeitet als Dramaturg. Hirschfeld und Wälterlin gelten in den kommenden Jahren als «Dreamteam» am Schauspielhaus. Sie verzichten auf offensichtlich politische Stücke. Spielen viele Klassiker, die sie mit aktueller Bedeutung aufladen. Legendär sind der Tell von Schiller oder Götz von Berlichingen von Goethe. In beiden spielt Heinrich Gretler die Hauptrolle. Der populäre Schauspieler wird auf der Bühne fast so etwas wie das Gesicht der geistigen Landesverteidigung. Im Mai 1940, als die Kriegsgefahr für die Schweiz besonders gross ist, setzen die beiden einen weiteren Akzent auf der Pfauenbühne. Hitler beginnt seinen Westfeldzug, und es gibt Gerüchte, dass auch die Schweiz bald an der Reihe ist. Die Zürcherinnen und Zürcher verlassen ihre Stadt in Scharen. Auch die Emigrantinnen und Emigranten haben ihre Koffer gepackt. Aber sie bleiben – und spielen. Am 18. Mai 1940 kommt es zur Premiere von Goethes Faust II. Ein Lieblingsstück der Nazis – das in Zürich ganz anders interpretiert wird. Es ist ein sehr eindrückliches Beispiel dafür, welche Kraft Theater haben kann. Aber nicht nur mit Klassikern, sondern auch mit Erstaufführungen von Exilautoren macht das Theater von sich reden. Ein bekanntes Beispiel ist die «Mutter Courage» von Berthold Brecht - ein Antikriegsstück mit der grossen Therese Giehse in der Hauptrolle. Der Zweite Weltkrieg hat eine einmalige Situation geschaffen. Der gemeinsame Feind und die Angst schweissen alle zusammen. Emigranten-Ensemble, Zuschauerinnen und Zuschauer, Theaterleitung, Politik und Presse. Und das ist bis heute die Basis des Schauspielhaus-Mythos. ____________________ In dieser Episode zu hören: Dagmar Walser, SRF-Theaterredaktorin ____________________ Recherche, Produktion und Moderation: Vera Deragisch ____________________ Literatur: Bachmann, Dieter/Schneider, Rolf (Hsg.)

Author and goal coach Abbie Schiller guest-hosts this episode to talk about one of the lesser-known forms of grieving: identity grief. Whether you are a mother whose child just went off to college or someone switching careers, if you have ever felt unmoored after a major life change, this episode is for you. Schiller explains how identity grief shows up across an entire lifetime, not just midlife, why it hits some of us harder than others, and gives a framework for moving through it, not just around it.

In Part 10 of his series on Ephesians, Rabbi Schiller looks at the theme of community as a key vision for the local congregation, which is only possible by the Gospel doing radical heart surgery and giving us a radical new identity.

How did Weimar, the town of Goethe and Schiller, become the crucible of Germany's moral collapse? Katja Hoyer, author of Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe, speaks to EI's Alastair Benn about the town's role in the rise of the Third Reich.Image: Adolf Hitler at the ‘Haus Elephant' in Weimar, 1936.

The town of Weimar looms large in German history. This ancient town nestled in the heart of the country was home to some of Europe's greatest thinkers, Goethe and Schiller, Liszt and Nietzsche among them. It gave its name to the ambitious Weimar Republic crafted in the aftermath of the First World War. But it was also where fascism took hold. Where Bauhaus architects first experimented with new ways of living, Buchenwald was dug out of a beech forest. German-British historian Katya Hoyer has drawn on a wealth of new archival research to tell the story of Weimar through the lives of some of its citizens from the years 1919-1939.  In this episode, she talks to historian Sophie Scott-Brown about some of these vividly drawn characters who, as the events of history swept them up, became witnesses, perpetrators, victims and bystanders. How did Germany, within a few years, turn from one of the most liberal democracies in the world to a genocidal dictatorship? What choices did individual Germans make that enabled this? And what lessons can we learn to avoid repeating their mistakes?  Katja Hoyer is Visiting Research Fellow at King's College London and a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. She is the author of Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe.

Jedes Jahr eine Deutschland-Rundumsicht. Auch diesmal wieder eine Stichprobe aus dem Reiseland Deutschland von Nord nach Süd und von Ost nach West: Städte, Inseln, Natur- und Kulturregionen, Berge und Seen. Deutschland – ein Überblick Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD So unterschiedlich wie die Einschätzungen der befragten Reiseregionen zeigte sich der Deutschlandtourismus im Jahr 2025. Trotzdem gilt verhaltene Zufriedenheit. Stagnierung bei Gästen aus dem Ausland? Entwicklung 26: Was so schön hätte sein können, traf dann spätestens mit dem geopolitischen Paukenschlag Anfang März nur noch bedingt zu. Das „Incoming“, also die Zahl der Besucher aus dem Ausland, war ein Hoffnungsträger. Jetzt lässt die Zahl der Auslandstouristen erst mal nach. Es gibt handfeste Probleme für den Deutschlandtourismus und seine Besuchenden aus dem Ausland. Weniger Gäste aus Asien und auch Nordamerika sind absehbar, denn die üblichen Reiseströme sind ins Stocken gekommen. Deutschlandtourismus von Deutschen gerettet? Muss der Deutschland-Tourismus jetzt von uns, im eigenen Land, gerettet werden? Genau genommen sind ja die Inlandsurlauber für viele Regionen die gewaltigste Stütze, die sie bekommen können. Rund die Hälfte der Deutschen machen schließlich Urlaub im eigenen Land. Werden es 2026mehr werden? Anzeichen und dazugehörige Schlagzeilen gibt es einige: Buchungseinbruch in der Türkei, Spanien völlig überlaufen. Flugurlaub wegen Kerosinmangels teurer. Das alles wären gute Argumente für den Inlandsurlaub. Allerdings auch hier ist die wirtschaftliche Situation durchaus herausfordernd. Kaub: Burg Pfalzgrafenstein – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Stadt – Land – Fluss Im Podcast habe ich quasi in Stichproben nachgefragt und es gibt bei gleichen Problemen, durchaus unterschiedliche Ausgangslagen und Herausforderungen. Die Konkurrenz, hab ich gehört, sei ebenfalls größer geworden. Was war, was kommt war die durchgehende Frage an Alle. Für Sie / Euch als Zuhörende ist das Wichtigste natürlich auch dabei: Jedes Ziel hat tolle Reisetipps für dieses Jahr parat. Zum Zug kommen diesmal Bremen, die INSEL Usedom, Brandenburg, Sachsen, der Thüringer Wald, Weimar, Baden Württemberg und der BodenSEE. “Schulschiff Deutschland” in Bremerhaven – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Bremen: Digitale Stadtmusikanten & „Bremen „Pay“ Maike Bialek, Kommunikationschefin der Wirtschaftsförderung Bremen wirkt ziemlich glücklich mit Bremens Bilanz und weist mit Nachdruck auf die neue Tourismusstrategie hin. Sie ist gekennzeichnet von Nachhaltigkeit und Digitalisierung. Belohnung statt Verbot BremenPay – Foto: Screenshot Bremen.de Im Mai startet „BremenPay“. Das ist weder eine neue Kreditkarte oder Zahlungssystem, sondern eins, das Besuchende belohnt. Vorbild ist das erfolgreiche Programm „COPPAY“ aus der dänischen Hauptstadt Kopenhagen. Umweltgerechtes Verhalten von Touristen wird damit belohnt. Ein Programm, das nichts verbietet, sondern belohnt. Hört, wie's funktioniert. Im Bereich der Digitalisierung gibt es Neues von den Bremer Stadtmusikanten. Die wurden digitalisiert und werben jetzt für die Hansestadt. Zu guter Letzt wären da noch die jährlichen Feierlichkeiten zu deutschen Einheit zu erwähnen. Am 3. Oktober 2026 ist Bremen Gastgeberin, freut sich schon darauf und bastelt an einem interessanten Programm. Insel Usedom: Natur und Infrastruktur Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Mal ist es zu voll und manchmal viel zu leer. Das ist das Schicksal von Bade- und Saisondestinationen. Davon wird auch Deutschlands östlichste Insel nicht verschont. In der absoluten Hauptsaison (Juli & August) verliert die vorhandene Infrastruktur regelmäßig gegen den Touristenstrom. In der absoluten Nebensaison (November bis Februar) ist es, von Weihnachten und Silvester abgesehen, mitunter so leer, dass es unrentabel wird, die touristischen Angebote in voller Stärke aufrecht zu erhalten. Der Reiseradio-Podcast 302 vom letzten Dezember versucht das Problem zu analysieren. Usedomer Bäderbahn in Wolgast – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Michael Steuer, Geschäftsführer von Usedom Tourismus berichtet von Planungen und Verbesserung. Er berichtet nicht von seiner größten Hoffnung in Sachen Verkehrsinfrastruktur, denn da haken die Planungen mal wieder. Immerhin ist die Insel immer wieder für eine Überraschung gut, wie beispielsweise der in diesem Jahr zum ersten Mal stattfindende „Strandmarathon“. In Sachen Kultur tut sich seit vielen Jahren etwas mit den „Usedomer Musiktagen“ und den „Usedomer Literaturtagen“. Zu Letzteren kommt Alt-Kanzlerin Angela Merkel am 10. September zu einer Lesung nach Peenemünde. Zeitnah zu den Landtagswahlen in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern am 20.09. Diese Wahlen und die prognostizierten Mehrheiten sind derzeit nicht nur in M-V selber, sondern auch auf der Insel ein Problem. Hört die Geschichte im Podcast. Usedom bei Zempin – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Und Eins steht für die Touristiker felsenfest: Die besondere Natur der Insel ist ihr Kapital, das man auf keinen Fall verspielen dürfe. Brandenburg: Wir haben auch schöne Seen Erst kommt die Mecklenburgische Seenplatte und dann ist man auch gleich in Brandenburg. Man leidet seit Jahren darunter, dass es dort mindestens genauso schöne Seen gibt, die image- wie umsatzträchtig gegen die berühmten Nachbarn hinten runter fielen. Seit November 25 gibt es dafür eine neue Kooperation zwischen Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Brandenburg und Berlin. Daraus könnte was draus werden und sinnvoll ist es für alle Beteiligten, denn: Urlauber achten in der Regel nicht auf Bundesländergrenzen! Brandenburger Seenplatte / Deutschlands Seenland – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Gleichwohl haben es die deutschen Geheimtipps leider immer noch etwas schwerer, bestätigt Regina Zibell von Reiseland Brandenburg. Trotzdem sei alles soweit gut, wenn man mal das Sommerwetter 25 außen vor ließe. Neu in Brandenburg ist noch mehr Wasser. Der Verbund des „Lausitzer Seenlands“ wachse und viele Seen würden noch in diesem Sommer miteinander verbunden. Regina verspricht ein Paradies. Nach dem Gespräch, ich war schon am Zusammenpacken, sagt sie noch: „Ups, ich hab ja Prinz Heinrich ganz vergessen, dessen 300. Geburtstag wir in diesem Jahr feiern“. Nicht so schlimm, denn dazu gibt's ja schon den Reiseradio-Podcast 304 vom Januar. Der Prinz lohnt, genauso wie fast alle Begleiterscheinungen insbesondere rund um sein Schloss in Rheinsberg. Schlossterrasse Rheinsberg – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Sachsen: Bewegung und Kultur  Ines Nebelung, Sprecherin der Tourismus-Marketinggesellschaft Sachsen, schaut mit gemischten Gefühlen auf den Sommer 26. In Zeiten von wirtschaftlichen Problemen hätten die Leute schon im letzten Jahr weniger Geld für Urlaub ausgegeben. Das könne ein Problem werden für Sachsen als explizites Kurzreiseziel. Sächsische Schweiz – Foto: Frank Richter / TMG Sachsen Gleichzeitig gäbe es aber entsprechende Hoffnungsschimmer. Die Schlagzeile lautet deshalb auch: Kultur- und Städtereisen (z.B. nach Leipzig und Dresden) in Kombination mit Naturerlebnis. Dankbar ist man über den „Nachhall“ zum Kulturhauptstadtjahr in Chemnitz. Fortgeführt werden auch die Programme um das „Jahr der Romantik“ von 2025. Im Mittelpunkt das Elbsandsteingebirge und der Komponist Carl Maria von Weber. Wandern im Erzgebirge – Foto: Erzgebirge-Tourismus Highlight des Jahres werde sicher das „Europäische Wanderfestival“, das im Erzgebirge Station mache. Das geschieht zusammen mit dem Deutschen Wandertag in Oberwiesenthal. Thüringer Wald: Mountainbikes und Tradition  Berühmt für die nächste Region ist der Rennsteig für Wanderer und im Zentrum Oberhof für Wintersportler. Das kleine Mittelgebirge zieht sich von Eisenach im Nordwesten bis nach Suhl und Ilmenau im Südosten. Wir haben jede Menge Stärken, sagt Susann Eberlein vom Regionalverbund Thüringer Wald. Thüringer Wald – Foto: Jens Hauspurg / TTG Die Aktivitäten rund um Mountainbike-Strecken und Parcours sollen ausgebaut werden. Nicht ganz einfach, denn man muss mit den Waldbesitzern unter einen Hut kommen. Ansonsten spielt Kultur und Geschichte eine wichtige Rolle von Bach bis zum gläsernen Christbaumschmuck. Hauptargument für den Thüringer Wald sei aber immer noch die Tatsache, dass man beim Wandern und in der Natur nicht mit Hundertschaften von weiteren Urlaubern unterwegs sei. Credo: Ruhe, Entspannung und ursprüngliche Natur in einem Umfeld von Tradition. Mountainbiker auf dem 12-Apostel-Trail von der Hohen Möst (888 m) nach Oberschönau im Thüringer Wald nahe Oberhof. – Foto: Lars Schneider / TTG Weimar: Faust und Anna Amalia Die ehemalige Residenzstadt Weimar ist zweifelsfrei ein Paradebeispiel, wenn es um das Land von Dichtern und Denkern geht. Goethe, Schiller, Bach, Liszt, Richard Strauß, aber auch das Bauhaus stehen für Weimar. Um Vieles an Kultur kümmert sich die Klassik-Stiftung, die aber auch ganz eng mit den Touristikern der Stadt zusammenarbeitet. Themenjahr 2025: Faust – Grafik: Klassik Stiftung Weimar Johannes Wiesel von der Klassik Stiftung zeigt sich im Gespräch zufrieden mit den Aktivitäten des letzten Jahrs rund um Goethes Faust, der in die Gegenwart geholt wurde. Mit Erfolg, denn die Tourismusstatistik kommt positiv rüber. In diesem Jahr warten aber weitere kulturelle Highlights auf die Gäste in der Stadt. Entdecken und Wiederentdecken ist das Hauptmotto, denn es gäbe auch ein umfangreiches Programm für die „Wiederholungstäter, sagt Johannes Wiesel. Das Angebot „Öffnen“ soll hauptsächlich auch intensive Blicke hinter die Kulissen ermöglichen. Im Oktober wird das Weimarer Stadtschloss wieder eröffnet. Heute, am 30. April, eröffnet auch das Wittumspalais wieder. Es war der Witwensitz von Herzogin Anna Amalia, der die Stadt noch viel mehr verdankt, als die weltberühmte Bibliothek. Ilm-Park mit Goethes Sommerhaus – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Wie bei allen Befragten gibt es auch in Weimar wichtige Impulse der Klassik-Stiftung in Sachen KI, Digitalisierung und Literaturgeschichte. Selbst die Frage von Umwelt- und Naturschutz spielt eine gewichtige Rolle. Warum? Hört im Podcast nach. Baden-Württemberg: Schlaglichter in Sachen Auslandstourismus Heidelberg: Schlossbeleuchtung Foto: Heidelberg Marketing Baden-Württemberg repräsentiert, neben dem touristisch allgegenwärtigen Bayern, die Regionen, die insbesondere bei Gästen aus dem Ausland eine große Rolle spielen: Kein US-Tourist verlässt Deutschland ohne den Blick auf Heidelberg, „Black Forest“ und „Lake Constance“. Schwarzwald bei Furtwangen “Fallerhof” – Foto: Erich Spiegelhalter / Schwarzwald-Tourismus Sannah Mattes vom Tourismusmarketing Baden-Württemberg kann dementsprechend selbstbewusst auftreten, auch wenn die Zahl der US Touristen je nach Region teilweise stark nachgelassen hat. Das Jahresmotto 2026 lautet „Sehnsuchtsorte im Süden“ und da könne sich aufgrund der Vielfältigkeit jeder sein Lieblingsziel heraussuchen. Sehnsucht sei ja schließlich höchst emotional und individuell. Bodensee: Deutsch und International Unterwegs mit der “Stuttgart”, Kurs Konstanz – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Lake Constance, im Deutschen schlicht Bodensee. Internationales aus vier Ländern gehört hier eigentlich schon immer zur DNA. Wo aber fängt man an? Deutsch Vielleicht einfach beim internationalen Namensgeber Konstanz. Eric Thiel, Geschäftsführer der Marketing und Tourismus Konstanz GmbH sagte mir, dass der Bodensee im letzten Jahr, ganz gegen die Gewohnheit, mit ziemlich viel Regen und schlechtem Wetter im Juli und August zu kämpfen hatte. Dennoch sei man heil durch die „Wetterkrise“ gekommen. Hier gab es im Übrigen keine Besuchereinbrüche aus den USA. Im Gegenteil. Die Touristen von dort seien besonders interessiert an historischen Orten und hätten noch mehr Spaß, den Bodensee mit E-Bikes zu umrunden. In wenigen Tagen gleich vier Länder zu bereisen, sei eben etwas Besonderes. Imperia – An der Hafeneinfahrt in Konstanz – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Für 2026 verspricht er, neben der wundervollen Stadt und der benachbarten Insel Mainau reichlich Neues. Die lange Jahre gesperrte Marienschlucht sei jetzt wieder geöffnet und über einen Skywalk zugänglich. Zu sehen gäbe es jetzt auch das „Assisi-Panorama“ ein quasi historisches „Wimmelbild“ über Konstanz zu Zeiten des Konzils im Mittelalter. In Sachen Umwelt ist man am Bodensee ohnehin achtsam. 10 Jahre sanfter Tourismus zahlten sich inzwischen aus, schließt Eric Thiel unseren Talk ab. International 24 Stunden Flohmarkt Konstanz / Kreuzlingen – Foto: MTK / Chris Danneffel Die Bodensee-Story ist aber noch nicht zu Ende erzählt, nicht umsonst hat er auch Ufer in Österreich, der Schweiz und Liechtenstein. Wenn man den ganzen See vermarkten will, geht das nur in internationaler Zusammenarbeit. Dafür ist die Internationale Bodensee Tourismus Gesellschaft gegründet worden. Um die Pressearbeit dort kümmert sich Alina Milz. Sie klärt mich über die bewährte, internationale Zusammenarbeit auf. Es gebe natürlich auch Herausforderungen, schließlich verlaufe an der Grenze zu Liechtenstein und der Schweiz eine EU-Außengrenze. In der Lebenspraxis der Urlauber spiele das aber kaum eine Rolle. Konstanz und Kreuzlingen gingen zum Beispiel ineinander über. Als Fußgänger bemerke man den Wechsel quasi nicht, auch wenn der Autoverkehr kontrolliert werde. 80 Jahre Bregenzer Festspiele: Der Freischütz auf der Seebühne 2024/25 – Foto: Daniel Ammann / Bregenzer Festspiele Bregenzer Festspiele. Alina Milz wartet dann noch mit einigen internationalen Terminen und Attraktionen auf, die sich Bodenseebesucher 2026 nicht entgehen lassen sollten. Dazu gehören die Jubiläen “80 Jahre Bregenzer Festspiele”, “1200 Jahre Radolfzell” oder “50 Jahre Bodensee-Weinfest” in Meersburg. Im Podcast hat sie noch mehr gute Tipps parat, auch was die Bodensee-Plus-Karte betrifft und die, ebenfalls internationalen, Schiffsrouten über den See. Bodenseefähre (Symbolbild) – Foto: Rüdiger Edelmann / ttb-media TON-TEXT-BILD Es gäbe sicher noch Vieles über den Deutschland-Tourismus und den Urlaub im Heimatland zu erzählen. Ich persönlich bin immer wieder erstaunt, wie vielfältig, abwechslungsreich und teilweise sogar unentdeckt bestimmte deutsche Regionen sind. Es gibt viel zu entdecken. Verreist also gerne mal im Inland. Es lohnt sich!

Send comments and feedbackBidirectional links between epilepsy and sleep have been known for thousands of years. Despite nearly a century of research using EEG investigations, the relationships are still not well understood.Dr. Laurent Sheybani interviewed Dr. Birgit Frauscher, an epileptologist and sleep specialist at the Montreal Neurological Institute. They discussed what is known about sleep patterns, how sleep may influence epileptic activity and vice versa, and how sleep research may lead to more effective epilepsy treatments.Studies mentioned in the interview include:Interictal Hippocampal Spiking Influences the Occurrence of Hippocampal Sleep Spindles (Frauscher et al., 2015, Sleep)Focal epilepsy disrupts spindle structure and function (Schiller et al., 2022, Nature Scientific Reports)Origin and significance of the cyclic alternating pattern: Review article (Terzano & Parrino, 2000, Sleep Medicine Reviews)SleepSEEG: automatic sleep scoring using intracranial EEG recordings only (von Ellenrieder et al., 2022, J.

So just who is Scott Schiller? The man entrusted to handle one hour of Listening Lyrics... + Community radio host on KDRT 95.7 FM, where he co-hosts That California Sound!—a program focused on music discovery and local/California artists  + Live-music advocate who believes strongly that live music “invigorates the soul” and has immersed himself in the regional music scene + Board member of the Davis Live Music Collective, helping support and promote local performances  + Active in local venues, including involvement with the music committee at the Davis Odd Fellows  + Music documentarian/recordist, contributing live recordings and supporting regional shows and archives (including collaborations tied to the Sacramento-area music scene)  + Originally from Wisconsin, later moving to California, and deeply embedded in the Davis music community In short, Schiller is one of those behind-the-scenes community builders—part DJ, part promoter, part archivist—helping keep the Davis live music ecosystem vibrant.

In Part 6 of his series on Ephesians, Rabbi Schiller looks at the theme of Hope and how our future expectations shape our present reality, and to the degree that we realize that the joy set before Yeshua was our salvation, to that degree He will become, in turn, our Living Hope.

Pour un Parisien ou pour un Londonien du XIXe siècle, voyager à travers les principautés d'Allemagne devait être aussi dépaysant que frustrant. Il va falloir attendre l'essor de la bourgeoisie allemande pour que s'épanouisse vraiment l'esprit romantique de ces contrées. Entrez dans l'Allemagne du début du XIXe siècle, un pays encore morcelé en une mosaïque de principautés. Franck Ferrand vous emmène à la découverte de cette Allemagne rurale et traditionnelle, où le paysan vit dans une relative autarcie, sans connaître le monde extérieur. Malgré ces conditions de vie difficiles, une riche culture populaire s'épanouit au sein des veillées, avec ses chants, ses contes et ses traditions.Parallèlement, la bourgeoisie des villes s'éveille à la littérature et au théâtre, sous l'influence de Goethe et Schiller. Mais le fossé reste grand entre cette élite cultivée et le peuple des campagnes.

In this episode of the goop podcast, goal coach, author, and speaker Abbie Schiller returns to help us make sense of the years that feel like a lot—the ones that move too quickly, stretch us thin, and leave us wondering what, exactly, just happened. She shares a gentle way to look back without collapsing into self-blame, and to trace the threads of meaning woven through even the most difficult seasons. Abbie's tools for building mental strength are practical, human, and surprisingly doable—small shifts that help us meet whatever comes next with a little more steadiness and hope. For more support, she created a free end-of-year reflection guide available at https://www.abbieschiller.com/guide.
