Anarchism is not what they made you believe.Catherine Bleish Bonandin spent two decades in the freedom movement, got arrested twice, was profiled by the Southern Poverty Law Center, and eventually walked away from frontline activism after a police officer added her name to a monitoring list while she was raising an infant.She now produces Anarchapulco in Mexico and Liberpulco in Serbia, and partners with Liberland. She lives on Greenbriar, a consensus-based intentional community in Texas, where she homeschools her kids and teaches Game of Village.Her story starts as a Ron Paul delegate at the 2008 RNC, learning she was being handed chant cards like a movie extra. What came after is the part most podcasts skip: fusion centers, FBI provocateurs in Austin activist circles, and the slow recognition that "agitator" was a role she had to retire from.Greenbriar runs on consensus, accountability, and the four agreements. Anarchapulco went through the darkness HBO documented in The Anarchists and came out the other side. Both prove the same point Catherine kept circling back to: freedom without responsibility isn't freedom.This one runs deep on what real community looks like when nobody's making you stay.You'll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[8:02] How DHS profiled Ron Paul supporters as potentially violent militia members[24:05] The YouTube chant that put Alex Jones on notice[32:11] When your principles start getting in the way of your actual freedom[38:57] The fourth option Claire Wolfe missed: becoming a Monopoly player[46:35] Why the health freedom fight can't be won in Washington [52:44] What HBO's The Anarchist got right, and the transformation it refused to film[1:02:48] The Howard accusation, the CIA psyop email, and what provocateur behavior looks like[1:37:31] How Cherán, Mexico, kicked out the cartels and the cops, and kept them out[1:59:29] Inside Greenbrier: the consensus-based community that's lasted since 1968[2:05:53] What Liberland actually is and how Vit found land no country was claimingResources Mentioned:"Government" - The Biggest Scam in History.

In the first hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, they start off without Stoke again before Stink bashes the World Cup some more and sets up a “Tell Me Why I’m Wrong Wednesday”. They discuss the Nuggets’ decision to trade back in the draft last night and they lay down the expectations for the team for the rest of the offseason. Stink gets backed into a corner with a “Tell Me Why I’m Wrong” and they briefly shout out a svelte-looking Jokic over in Serbia. They wrap up the first hour with some “Tell Me Why I’m Wrong’s” about Jokic’s priorities and the weak link on the Avalanche.  

For the second hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, they recap some of the action from the World Cup and vent about Ronaldo for a bit. What was Josh Kroenke upset about after last night’s draft? Is there discord in the Nuggets’ front office? What is Troy Franklin’s place in the pecking order with Jaylen Waddle in the picture? Will he be the WR3 or did he get replaced? They take some “Tell Me Why I’m Wrong’s” about Davis Webb succeeding Sean Payton and Josh Kroenke’s supposed cheapness. What’s Trending? All things basketball, from the draft, to a new bigwig in Boulder, and all the way to a skinny Jokic in Serbia.

For twenty-eight years he lived the ascetical life on Mt Athos as a disciple of St Gregory of Mt Sinai. Later, he founded the monastery of St Mamas, also on Mt Athos. In 1350 he was elected Patriarch of Constantinople. After four years, he resigned the patriarchal throne to return to the Holy Mountain, but was called back to the throne, where he remained until his death in 1363. He wrote the definitive lives of St Gregory the Sinaite and St Theodosius of Trnovo. He was known to St Maximos Kapsokalyvia (the Hut-burner), who foretold his death: On his final journey to Serbia, on which he died, the Patriarch stopped on Mt Athos, where St Maximos saw him and said, "This elder will not see his flock again, because I hear behind him the hymn over the grave, 'Blessed are those that are undefiled in the way...'"

Blayne Alexander sits down with José Díaz-Balart, anchor of “Dateline en español,” to discuss his episode, “Missing Ana.” In December 2023, after separating from her husband, 40-year-old Ana Maria Knezevich moved from South Florida to Madrid, Spain, for a fresh start. Just two months later, Ana vanished. Close friends received text messages from Ana claiming she had met a man and gone on a trip. Skeptical of the messages, the friends sprang into action to find Ana. What followed was an international investigation spanning Serbia, Spain, and Florida. José shares what it was like reporting from Madrid, the city where he grew up. He and Blayne discuss Spain's elite detective unit and the extraordinary lengths investigators went to in their search for the person responsible.

A part of a series of exclusive interviews with men's basketball's newest arrivals, Matt Zimmerman sits down with Finnish standout and five-star forward Miikka Muurinen to discuss the international journey that brought him to Arkansas. From growing up around basketball in Finland with two former player parents, to training in Spain, Serbia, Kansas, and Arizona, Muurinen reflects on the experiences that shaped his smooth, versatile game and calm confidence. He opens up about building chemistry with Arkansas' highly touted freshman class, why loyalty from Coach Calipari's staff made Arkansas feel like the obvious choice, and the balance between European skill basketball and the physical American style of play. Muurinen also talks about his competitive fire, his love for winning, the "Slim Jesus" nickname that exploded online, and the excitement of eventually playing in front of a packed Bud Walton Arena. The conversation gives Razorback fans an early look at the maturity, poise, and high-level upside that make Miikka Muurinen one of the most intriguing newcomers in college basketball. -------- The full video version of this episode is available exclusively on HogsPlus.com Follow us on social media!

"He was one of the greatest men of Serbia who ruled the kingdom after king Dušan. Upon the death of King Uroš, Lazar was crowned King of Serbia by Patriarch Ephraim. He sent a delegation to Constantinople, including a monk called Isaiah, to plead for the removing of the anathema from the Serbian people. He went to war on several occasions against the Turkish Pasha, finally clashing with the Turkish king, Amurât, at Kosovo on June 15, 1389, being slain there. His body was taken to Ravanica near Cupria, a foundation of his, and buried there, but was later taken to New Ravanica in Srem. During the Second World War, in 1942, it was taken to Belgrade and placed in the Cathedral, where it is preserved to this day and offers comfort and healing to all who turn to him in prayer. He restored Hilandar and Gornjak, built Ravanica and the Lazarica in Kruševac and was the founder of St Panteleimon, the Russian monastery on the Holy Mountain, as well as numerous other churches and monasteries."

Interview with David Cole, CEO of Elemental Royalty Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/tether-to-assume-33-stake-in-transformational-royalty-merger-of-emx-royalty-elemental-altus-8002Recording date: 11th June 2026Elemental Royalty Corporation has emerged as a major player in the global mining royalty sector, following the merger of Elemental Altus and EMX Royalty. The combined entity now holds over 300 mineral property interests across 23 countries, positioning itself as a diversified, billion-dollar company with projected annual revenues nearing $100 million. Its commodity exposure is balanced, with approximately 60% derived from gold and silver, 30% from copper, and the remainder from base metals such as zinc, lead, and molybdenum.The company operates on a royalty model, enabling it to benefit from mining revenues without bearing operational or capital costs. Its portfolio is structured like a pyramid, combining producing assets for immediate cash flow, development-stage projects for medium-term growth, and exploration-stage properties that offer long-term upside. This structure supports steady revenue generation alongside asset value appreciation.A key factor in Elemental's growth is its strategic partnership with Tether, which holds a 32% equity stake and has injected $100 million into the company. This backing lowers Elemental's cost of capital and provides financial flexibility for acquisitions without relying heavily on equity dilution.Elemental has also significantly improved its market presence, increasing trading liquidity after listing on the NASDAQ and positioning itself for inclusion in major indexes such as the Russell 2000, Russell 3000, and potentially the GDXJ ETF. These developments are expected to attract institutional investment.Future growth is driven by major projects such as the Timok copper deposit in Serbia and the pending Vizsla silver-gold royalty acquisition in Mexico. With strong exposure to both precious metals and energy-transition commodities, Elemental is well positioned to benefit from global demand trends while maintaining a low-risk, capital-efficient business model.View Elemental Royalty's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/elemental-altus-royaltiesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Author Julie Brill joined "The Shmooze" to speak about her recently released "Hidden in Plain Sight: A Family Memoir and the Untold Story of the Holocaust in Serbia". As a child, Julie held two conflicting beliefs. She knew Germans had murdered her Jewish grandfather in occupied Yugoslavia, yet she somehow believed the Holocaust had never come to his hometown of Belgrade. The family anecdotes her father passed down—a blend of his early memories and what his mother told him—didn't match what Julie had heard about Germany, Poland, and Anne Frank in Holland during World War II.

In this episode of The Horse's Mouth, I had the great pleasure of talking with Dr Dzavid Haveric. Dzavid is a force of nature — an academic of the highest order, you might say. He's one of the most well-read people I've ever met and has dedicated his life's work to history, particularly the story of early Muslims trading with the First Nations people of Arnhem Land prior to white colonisation. His published work also explores Muslims fighting alongside Australians in the Boer War and both World Wars. To date, he has had 16 books published, along with numerous university papers. Dzavid's own story is just as remarkable. He grew up in Bosnia and fled when Serbia invaded in the early 1990s, eventually making his way to Australia. Dzavid's life is an incredible story, and I was thrilled to have him on for a chat. Cheers, Dzavid.

Montenegro has long been described as the frontrunner in the European Union's enlargement process. The government insists the country can join the EU by 2028. But how realistic is that timeline?In this episode of Talk Eastern Europe, Alexandra Karppisits down with political analyst Danilo Kalezić from the University of Montenegro to unpack the country's complex political reality. They discuss the growing gap between Brussels' optimism and developments on the ground, the influence of Serbia and Russia, tensions with Croatia, and whether Montenegro risks becoming another source ofinstability inside the EU itself.Can Montenegro truly become the next EU member state, or is the enlargement narrative masking deeper democratic and geopolitical challenges?Talk Eastern Europe is the podcast from New Eastern Europe magazine - your trusted source for in-depth analysis and expert perspectives on Central and Eastern Europe, Russia, and the post-Soviet space.ABOUT THIS PODCASTWe publish twice weekly:- Every Tuesday: Expert Interviews featuring deep dives with leading analysts, journalists, and scholars- Every Friday: Weekly News Roundup with essential updates and commentary on the latest developmentsAvailable on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube and all major platforms.Read the New Eastern Europe Magazine Bimonthly publication with exclusive long-form analysis. https://neweasterneurope.eu/become-a-member-of-new-eastern-europe/Support us on PatreonJoin our community for bonus content, early access, behind-the-scenes insights, and access to our exclusive WhatsApp group where we discuss the news in real-time.https://www.patreon.com/talkeasterneuropeSubscribe to the Brief Eastern Europe NewsletterWeekly briefing sent out every Monday with news updates, expert commentary, and our editorial picks - free to your inbox: https://briefeasterneurope.eu/subscribeFOLLOW USInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/neweasterneuropemag/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewEasternEurope/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/new-eastern-europe/

0:00 - It's gonna be a long summer, man. The Nuggets left a bad taste in our mouths. The Avs left an even worse one. And now, Brett's asking Moser stupid questions. Strap in, everyone. It's gonna get weird until Broncos training camp. After that, not to go all Seinfeld, but WHAT'S the DEAL with all these international tournaments in hockey and basketball? There was just a hockey tournament. Now there's a basketball one? Jamal Murray isn't playing for Canada, but Jokic IS playing for Serbia?16:00 - AJ Brown spoke to the media yesterday for the first time as a New England Patriot, and he was a little overzealous. How do you feel about someone playing for a team, while actively being a fan of a different team?36:22 - Brett got a song completely stuck in Moser's head. And it happens to be a song that Moser hates with the burning passions of 1000 suns. As I said earlier...it's gonna be long summer.

In this episode of the DSC's Campfires podcast, recorded on location at a battlefield in Scotland, Larry interviews Stefan Bengtson, who has co-owned and operated Scandinavian Pro Hunters with his wife, Sophia, since 2002. Stefan and his wife run an outfitting business that specializes in big game hunting and wing shooting worldwide, with a primary focus on short-travel European destinations. Big Game Hunting Destinations Scandinavian Pro Hunters offers a wide variety of big game species across several European countries: Sweden: Hunters can pursue European bison (wisent), large roebucks, European red stag, fallow stag, mouflon sheep, wild boar, and European moose. Norway: The outfitter provides scenic walk-and-stalk hunts for European reindeer in pure wilderness environments. Finland: The country offers unique opportunities for free-range whitetail and forest reindeer. Greenland: Available species include muskox and Greenland caribou. Scotland: Hunters can target roe deer, sika, and Scottish red stag. England: Available game includes Chinese water deer, muntjac, English red stag, Manchurian sika, Japanese sika, and roe deer. Eastern Europe: Hunts in Poland, Hungary, Serbia, and Romania are primarily focused on roe deer and red stag. Multi-Species Trips: Dedicated hunters have the unique opportunity to target multiple red stag species across different countries during a single trip. Wing Shooting and Waterfowl The outfitter provides highly social and challenging bird hunting experiences: VIP Upland Hunts: Hosted in Sweden, these hunts operate without strict bag limits, allowing hunters to take 10 to 30 birds each. Mixed Bags: Shooters can expect a mixture of pheasants, Hungarian partridges, hare, mallards, and teal, hunted alongside pointing dogs and spaniels. High-Volume Duck Hunts: Groups of 10 to 12 guns can shoot between 400 and 700 birds in a single day across various ponds. Driven Woodcock: A highly challenging late-season hunt is offered in the Scottish Highlands from late November through January. Driven Hunts: Traditional driven bird hunts are also available in Spain, Italy, and France. Guest Logistics and Amenities The company focuses heavily on the overall client experience, catering to both hunters and their companions: Firearms: While clients can navigate the paperwork to bring their own equipment, the outfitter highly recommends utilizing the quality local firearms provided by their gamekeepers. Fishing Combinations: Clients hunting in Scotland can easily combine their trips with salmon fishing or lake fishing for large trout using a Spey rod. Non-Hunter Activities: The company offers "hosted hunts" which include renting large manor houses equipped with private chefs, along with organized sightseeing tours for spouses and non-hunting companions. Expert Local Guides: Stefan notes that their success and high rate of repeat clientele are largely due to their relationships with expert local guides. Conservation and Contact Information Conservation Support: The host explicitly thanks Stefan and Sophia for their ongoing support of conservation efforts and for consistently donating hunts to the DSC and the DSC Foundation.

In this episode, Cory Connors welcomes Predrag Ozmo to discuss the sustainability story behind Ball Corporation — the world's largest aluminum packaging manufacturer, producing more than 100 billion cans per year. Predrag shares his background growing up in Serbia and his early career at MiTeCo, a metal recycling company, before joining Ball in 2019. He explains why aluminum is often called an "energy bank" — a truly circular material that can be recycled endlessly, with up to 95% energy savings versus primary production. Predrag walks through Ball's climate transition plan and its 2030 and 2050 goals, the decarbonization pathways for primary aluminum (hydropower, inert anodes, and the ELYSIS breakthrough), the growing importance of recycled content, and the innovative partnerships that are bringing refillable and first-of-their-kind aluminum packaging to market.Key Topics Discussed:Predrag's journey from metal recycling at MiTeCo in Serbia to sustainability leadership at Ball CorporationBall Corporation's scale as the world's largest aluminum packaging manufacturer (100+ billion cans per year)Aluminum as a circular, infinitely recyclable "energy bank" materialThe 95% energy savings achieved when aluminum is recycled versus primary productionBall's climate transition plan and 2030 / 2050 sustainability goalsDecarbonization of primary aluminum through hydropower, inert anodes, and the ELYSIS technologyThe role of recycled content in reducing packaging's carbon footprintBall's partnership with Meadow for refillable soap and shampoo in aluminum bottlesBrazil partnership with Sofie and Aeroflaks on the first ASI-certified aluminum aerosol canUnilever and Alcoa's ELYSIS pilot as a model for low-carbon primary metalThe 10–15 year vision for aluminum packaging and the circular economyWhy aluminum's infinite recyclability makes it a long-term sustainability winnerResources Mentioned:Ball CorporationELYSISAluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI)Meadow (refillable aluminum personal care packaging)Contact:Listeners can learn more or reach out to Predrag directly:LinkedInBall CorporationThank you for tuning in to Sustainable Packaging with Cory Connors!Support our Sponsors Learn more here:⁃www.3M.com/sustainablepackaging⁃https://www.specright.com/Connect with CoryConnect with Cory on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cory-connors/I'm here to help you make your packaging more sustainable!

Eighteen months ago, the renovation of the railway station in Serbia's second biggest city, Novi Sad, led to a tragic accident. A substantial concrete canopy, which ran across the front of the station building, suddenly collapsed, killing sixteen people. The disaster sparked mass protests. Marchers demanded justice for the dead and injured. As the protests spread, to the capital, Belgrade, and to towns and cities across the country, the demands evolved. Protesters accused the government of corruption and of covering up the truth about what happened. The government accused the protesters of being foreign agents, supported and organised by malign outside forces. Now, after more than a year, the mass protests have finally subsided. Jill McGivering is in Serbia to find out what's happened to that explosion of anti-government anger.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from Assignment, investigations and journeys into the heart of global events.
