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...'"

Daniel and Adam reunite after a couple of weeks off, immediately facing their usual tech gremlins—streaming audio works but video refuses to cooperate, prompting playful digs at Restream and plans to wrangle Discord into service. Adam confesses he missed last week's show entirely and forgot Daniel even recorded with guest host Wesley Stone, sparking a round of best-friend banter and mock recrimination (and a little shade for missing National Best Friends Day).The duo update listeners on their summer plans and the podcast schedule: Daniel will be camping next weekend, so Adam will likely host with a guest. This leads into a classic running update, with Daniel detailing the art of rescheduling long runs around Florida's heat and Juneteenth, while Adam guesses at Daniel's routine and is gently roasted for his accuracy. They transition to Adam's recent travels—a cruise with his parents and a trip to New York and New Jersey—where Adam shares both the joys and challenges of traveling with aging parents, including slow walks, excursion mishaps, and the realities of being a caretaker.The episode rounds out with talk of cruise cabanas, butlers from Serbia, the psychology behind name tags at Disney, and a “fundamental attribution error” lesson that turns into a tongue-in-cheek critique of Adam's other podcast. Daniel encourages personal growth (and a little less nostalgia) while Adam promises to pass along the feedback. All the while, their humor and genuine friendship shine through, mixing heartfelt real talk with plenty of laughs.Email: Contact@MixMinusPodcast.comVoice/SMS: 707-613-3284

Over on the Patreon feed we did a bonus episode covering the debate around private equity in festivals, of which there will be a second part this week. There will be a solo podcast covering all that on the main feed in the next couple of weeks but in the meantime we wanted to return to one of the absolute best episodes we've done, one which covered many of the wider themes that have come to the forefront of the discussion recently, from all the way back in March 2023.Tijana T is a DJ from Serbia. She's been involved in the scene in Belgrade one way or another since the 90s, a period which for obvious reasons was extremely fraught across the whole region. The discussion covers her wider career, but we spend a lot of time discussing the effect that conflict has on art, and on artists. From a position of direct experience, Tijana speaks with real insight on these topics.Covering this sort of thing is difficult. Not least because we get blocked from promoting our videos on Youtube when certain topics are even mention. But this is the important stuff that's happening in culture right now, and while tackling anything of it with a degree of nuance is a serious challenge, it's one that we enjoy on this show. Even if you listened to this episode the first time round we highly recommend giving it another spin. It's highly relevant to what is going on today. --If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

"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." (Prologue)

Laurent remembers vividly his trip to Sofia Bulgaria in winter 2009 when the Russian had cut the gas for Bulgaria during a -15C winter. Russia was already playing hard ball because of (guess what) a financial disagreement with Ukraine. The blackmail lasted 3 weeks, and the poor Bulgarians were cutting the trees from their equivalent of Hyde Park or Central Park not to freeze to death.    Lots of progress has been made since then, and Eastern Europe is an emerging bright spot of development for Renewables. It is not just about Economics but also about Security of Supply. We bring in Dimitar Enchev, Cofounder & CEO Europe at CWP - a global renewable energy company, behind some of the largest projects in Southeast Europe.  CWP has been active since 2007 and developed the largest projects in Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, including Europe's largest onshore wind farm for 10 years – a 600MW project in Romania and has now partnered with Mercuria, one of the largest energy trading houses in the world. They discuss how Eastern Europe felt the largest blunt of Russia's Energy War and how they have been accustomed to living, surviving and thriving with a hostile and aggressive neighbour, always prompt to weaponize energy. Is Europe “bringing a knife to a gunfight” when it comes to countering Russia?We explain how opportunities have risen from this difficult environment and how the decorrelation of wind and solar between the East and West of the Continent, and a continuous integration with the global European Grid creates significant investment opportunities. It is about Transmission, Resilience, Hybridization and digitization.

Filmmaker Emilija Gašić joins VIFF's Vanguard series programmer Sonja Baksa to discuss 78 Days, a found-footage film that won the Vanguard Award at VIFF 2024. Shot on hi-8 tapes in her native Serbia, the film follows three sisters documenting their lives during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999. Inspired by her own childhood memories, Gašić's decision to use analog tape lent to the "docufiction" quality of the film.In this conversation, Sonja and Emilija unpack the film's unconventional process and the Vanguard series' focus on "films that are pushing the boundaries of cinema", and how Gašić's journey from Lord of the Rings fan to NYU Tisch grad shaped her voice as a director.This episode was recorded during the 2024 Vancouver International Film Festival. This podcast is brought to you by the Vancouver International Film Festival.Presented on the traditional and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) nations.

Haftu Strintzos spent the first years of his life as a shepherd in mountainous Tigray in northern Ethiopia. He cared for sheep and cows and played hopscotch (the Tigrayan version) with the other shepherds. Now an Asics-sponsored athlete, with his sights on representing Australia in the marathon, Haftu has the most incredible story brimming with resilience and perspective. But to understand how he got from A to B, you'll just have to listen to this episode. Haftu talks about some defining moments of his athletic career so far, including running for Villanova University in the US, finishing first Australian across the line at the World Athletics Cross Country Championships in Serbia, winning the 10,000m at the 2024 Oceania Athletics Championships and achieving silver in the 5,000m. After his half marathon debut in Melbourne last year (62:24), Haftu followed up with a blinder in Marugame in Japan, where he ran 60:36 and asserted himself as a real contender on the roads. Unfortunately, Haftu's marathon debut was foiled by an injury that popped up just before Hamburg Marathon earlier this year. We discuss how he's dealing with that injury setback, how training has changed since he transitioned to Adam Didyk's Team Tempo and what Haftu's big goals for the future look like. -- Follow us on Instagram: @haftustrintz @runwithit.pod @elisebeacom -- Intro/outro music by Dan Beacom Graphic design by Kate Scheer

I appologise for the audio quality. We had issues with this episode.In this episode of the US Navy History Podcast, Dale and Christophe delve into the Serbian Campaign during World War I. They explore the initial Austro-Hungarian attacks on Serbia, the strategic errors made, and the significant battles such as the Battle of Cer and the Battle of Drina. The episode highlights the severe losses on both sides, the subsequent Serbian retreat, and the impact of external factors like the involvement of Bulgaria and the typhus epidemic on the Serbian population. The discussion extends to the eventual Allied counterattacks, the strategic significance of the campaign, and Serbia's role in the broader context of the war. They conclude by honoring Corporal Benjamin Robert Bazel, detailing his contributions during the Korean War. The episode combines in-depth historical analysis with personal anecdotes and closing thoughts from the hosts.

Lou Hughes, President and CEO of IMI, brings us inside the evolving world of global electronics manufacturing where uncertainty has become the only certainty. From his perspective leading a major EMS provider through turbulent times, Hughes shares candid insights about how companies are adapting to constant disruption.The conversation opens with a frank assessment of tariff uncertainties and their paralyzing effect on customer decision-making. "I think our customers are totally frustrated by the whole situation and everybody is just frozen in place," Hughes explains, highlighting how geopolitics directly impacts manufacturing strategies. This uncertainty creates a challenging business environment where planning becomes increasingly difficult.What emerges as particularly fascinating is Hughes' articulation of a fundamental industry paradox: customers demand manufacturing flexibility across regions to mitigate geopolitical risks, but resist paying the premium required to maintain that capability. "To say you're fast and flexible is one thing, but to truly be able to deliver that to a customer at a competitive price they expect is completely different," Hughes notes. This tension between flexibility and cost efficiency represents perhaps the central challenge facing global manufacturers today.Hughes then reveals IMI's strategic response - consolidation around "super sites" rather than maintaining numerous smaller facilities. He explains how the company recently sold its Czech facility while expanding operations in Serbia, believing that "fewer bigger sites" improve competitiveness by controlling overhead costs. Similarly, IMI's Mexico operations have become its busiest location for new product introductions, particularly attractive to customers seeking tariff advantages under current trade rules. This practical approach to balancing global presence with operational efficiency offers valuable lessons for navigating manufacturing in an increasingly unpredictable world.Ready to dive deeper into the realities of global manufacturing strategy?

Serbia's government has come under intense pressure since a deadly disaster at Novi Sad's main railway station last November. Student-led protests have spiralled into a nation-wide resistance movement and for months, Serbians have been speaking out against corruption, a lack of accountability, and a culture of impunity in Aleksandar Vučić's regime. But if you're listening to this from Western Europe, or indeed much of the rest of the world, the odd headline is probably all you've seen.    What are these protests really about? And what makes them different? This week, an in-depth conversation about what it's like to be living through a potential turning point in Serbian history.   Thanks for listening.

On the former Yugoslavia and the ethnography of anti-nationalists. [For the full episode, subscribe: patreon.com/bungacast] [Reading Club LIVE: Sat 14 June, 9am LA, 12am NY, 5pm London, 6pm Berlin] In the third installment of this block on inter/nationalism in the 21st century, we take a look at the other side of nationalism, through scholar Stefaan Jansen's “Anti-nationalism: Post-Yugoslav Resistance and Narratives of Self and Society”. Who are the Somewheres and Anywheres in post-Yugoslavia? How does Jansen understand the marginalisation of anti-nationalism in Serbia and Croatia? Is understanding nationalism and anti-nationalism as discursive practices a useful lens for understanding post-Yugoslav identities? Why is the act of forgetting or misremembering significant in the context of post-Yugoslav anti-nationalist narratives? How did the contrast between pre-war Yugoslavia and post-war realities shape anti-nationalist identities? Must individuality be anti-nationalist?

Making wine in California, France, and even Serbia, consulting winemaker Julien Fayard has a broad view of the winemaking world. His constant monitoring, evaluation, and investment in winemaking technology benefit both his own and his clients' wineries. Julien offers insight into winemaking technology on both sides of the Atlantic, as well as some of the specific technologies he utilizes. Detailed Show Notes: Julien's background: French, came to the US in 2006 and worked for Phillipe Melka, started his consulting practice in 2013, built two wineries and manages three others; mostly Napa (~85%), but also makes wine from Sonoma, Sierra Foothills, Provence, Bordeaux, and SerbiaUses trial & error to evaluate new winemaking technologyUsually, a trigger that causes each tech adoptionHears about new tech from travel and conversations with other wineries and tech companiesFrench tech is mostly involved with wine contact (e.g., yeast, oak treatment), the US is mostly logistics, mechanization, automation of labor, and CA is slow to mechanize vineyard workMonitors the slowly evolving knowledge base in winemaking - most tech innovations are slight derivatives of existing knowledge (e.g., sulfur automation)To buy into a new tech: other people using it, company viability (and ability to scale), practicality of solution (e.g., barrel door for fermentation did not take into consideration time and the challenge to move between barrels)ROI calculation includes cost savings, risk assessments, and quantity or quality improvementsGenerally does not implement things that could move costs more than 10-20%The most significant variable cost driver is when volume drops (e.g., waste, accidents, filtering, bulking out wine) - each tank is ~$100k of wineFruition Sciences did a lot of sap flow analysis, but never got mass adoptionWell monitoring technology is happening, and may be required soonCommunications modules for sensors are getting much cheaper, enabling more techVinwizard (NZ) - wall winery automationStarted with pumpover automation (temp, speed)Can control to avoid peak energy hoursCan set times for tanks to make temp-sensitive additions easierAlarms for glycol system outagesArkenstone was 1st Napa winery to adopt, learned from them, a solution more complete than TankNetMin ~$50k costInnovint - winery SW management systemCreates all work orders, does costing, compliance, and traceabilityClients, CPAs, and compliance can see everythingA communication tool, very user-friendlySentia - hand wine analyzer (VA, malic, alcohol, SO2)$2k/machine

That seems like a lot.    “Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.”  - Matthew 5:9 (KJV)  

Studies of statebuilding and peacebuilding have been criticized for their disregard of people living the consequences of intervention projects. Beyond International Intervention: Politics of Improvement in Serbia (University of Michigan Press, 2025) by Dr. Katarina Kušic takes on the task of engaging with spaces and peoples not usually present in IR scholarship to rethink the very concept of “intervention” by paying close attention to how people actually experience and make sense of those efforts. In particular, the book offers a detailed engagement with ethnographic fieldwork in two policy areas in Serbia—agricultural policy and non-formal youth education. By engaging with subjects, the book not only enhances our understanding of intervention, but also uncovers the limitations of the concept. Dr. Kušić argues that the concept limits what we can observe and theorize, and it prevents researchers from engaging with the people living in spaces of intervention as coeval political subjects. As an alternative, she proposes to foreground improvement over “intervention.” This reorientation enables researchers to trace hierarchies beyond the local/international dichotomy, expands fields of visibility beyond those prescribed by interventions themselves, and seriously considers the contradictions at the heart of liberalism. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Today, I interview Kristina Milosevic, who once struggled with shyness and fear of speaking up. As a child growing up in Serbia, she often felt more comfortable staying in the background. She was the responsible older sister, creative and observant, but hesitant to be fully seen. That shyness stayed with her into adulthood, where the pressure to meet expectations in a corporate marketing job built up over time.Eventually, that pressure affected her health and landed her in the hospital—a wake-up call that made her realize she could no longer live without her own voice.Kristina realized she had been living by someone else's script. She courageously left her job, started freelancing, and began showing up in new ways. Her first steps onto her own path began with a challenge she had never faced before—creating videos despite the shakiness and discomfort of being seen and heard in a second language. It was the beginning of discovering what she was truly meant to do.Today, Kristina helps others find their voice online. She supports entrepreneurs in building a real presence through social media, video, and personal connection. Her message is simple but powerful: be who you truly are, not who others expect you to be. Speak up, show up, and live your own life.__________________Kristina is a digital marketing coach, speaker, and podcast creator who helps entrepreneurs build an authentic online presence.

An affinity group is a small group of people who come together to prepare for and take direct action. They make decisions together, and support each other during and after action. Sometimes these groups are formed just for one action, but often they are ongoing groups that organise and take part in actions over a number of years.Affinity groups are often organised along the principles of non-hierarchy and autonomy. This means that decisions are made directly within the group by all its members, and responsibility and power is shared so that everyone has an equal voice.Affinity group guide: https://www.seedsforchange.org.uk/affinitygroupsWhat can I do?
