POPULARITY
U 58. epizodi Njuz POPkasta pričamo o serijama koje su nas oduševile, filmovima koji su nas razočarali (da, gledamo u tebe Pedro Paskale), knjigama koje se ne ispuštaju iz ruku, i muzici koja nam je obeležila nedelju.
U 192. epizodi Njuz podkasta, Vučić pokušava da napravi spektakl u Nišu, ali se sve pretvara u sat i po tišine, mokrih transparenata i Aca Lukasa koji nastupa pred praznim trgom. Istovremeno, Suzana Vasiljević ulazi u obračun sa Macutovim obezbeđenjem, vičući “sad ću da mu j**em mater”, dok Vučić dan kasnije u kecelji peče ćevape i objašnjava da ne voli reč "crta" – ni kao drogu, ni kao organizaciju. Pričamo i o policiji koja prvi put bije “svoje”, o “Ćacilandu” koji postaje pokret, o falsifikovanim papirima u aferi Generalštab, hapšenju i puštanju aktivista u Novom Sadu i Kraljevu, i o planu da Njuz kupi pravu pećinu za redakciju. Sve zvuči kao skeč? I jeste – ali je i stvarnost.
U novoj epizodi Njuz Podkasta EP191, spremamo se za Brisel (Wild Rover, irski pab!) i Sarajevo (20. jun), dok analiziramo goruće teme: hapšenja studenata u Novom Sadu, najavljene blokade raskrsnica, i večitu misteriju biračkih spiskova. Da li će neko konačno srediti haos sa prijavljenima na fantomskim adresama? Pratimo i predsednika Vučića na turneji po Rusiji – šta se stvarno dešavalo iza zatvorenih vrata i da li je hotelski pogled bio vredan drame? Otkrivamo sve o novom "Pokretu za narod i državu" (i potencijalnim, sočnijim dodacima imenu, npr. seks). Ne propuštamo ni bizarnu presudu Marku Marjanoviću (Kristal Met Dejmonu) i najavu Thriller Festa! Podržite nas – posetite naš SHOP! Novi cegeri, šolje i stikeri čekaju na vas
Njuz POPkast #57: Serije, filmovi, knjige, muzika i gaming preporuke! Nenad otkriva hit igru Clair Obscur, dok se raspravlja o detektivima (Ludwig), špijunima (Biró), bizarnim ubicama i novoj Snežani. U najnovijoj, možda i najhaotičnijoj epizodi, Jelisaveta briljira pamćenjem (ili vidovitošću?), Marko i Viktor se i dalje gube u srodničkim vezama (jetrva, pašenog, ko bi znao?!), a mi vas vodimo kroz lavirint novih preporuka! Plus, sve o Njuz šopu i našim predstojećim nastupima! Znamo da jedva čekate imena i linkove, ali moraćete malo da se strpite i uživate u našem nagađanju i povremenom (dobro, čestom) skretanju s teme!
U najnovijoj epizodi Njuz Podkasta, Jelisaveta hrabro preuzima "klaperske" dužnosti, dok ostatak ekipe secira goruće domaće i svetske teme. Glavna zagonetka: šta se zaista (navodno) desilo tokom iznenada prekinute posete predsednika Vučića Americi? Analiziramo donatorsku večeru kod Trampa, upotrebu pseudonima "Aleks Vuči", cenu novog predsedničkog aviona i da li je predsedniku zaista "pozlilo". Povezujemo sve sa (ne)izvesnim putem u Moskvu i medijskim spinovima, uključujući ulogu portala "Pavlović Today". Druga velika priča su studenti koji, nakon višemesečnih protesta, sada traže vanredne izbore. Ko može biti na njihovoj listi, kako funkcioniše Dontov sistem i hoće li vlast uopšte pristati na izbore? Ne propuštamo ni tragikomični osvrt na gostovanje Čedomira Antića i Patrika Drida kod Minje Miletić i Antićevu odbranu Drida... odlaskom u Koralovo. Plus, standardne servisne informacije o našem merču (šolje, notesi, cegeri i uskoro NOVE MAJICE!) i najava nastupa uživo. Za Patreon i YouTube članove: U dodatnom segmentu vas čeka detaljna analiza novog istraživanja KRIK-a o troškovima školovanja dece Siniše Malog.
U 189. epizodi Njuz Podcasta, ekipa u punom sastavu komentariše najsvežija (i najbizarnija) dešavanja: Analiziramo ko se tukao ispred DIF-a u Novom Sadu, zašto dekan Patrik zaključava fakultet i zove žandarmeriju, i šta Željko Mitrović radi na žurkama u Zapa Bazi (i kakve to veze ima sa pumpanjem). Pitamo se zašto Alfa Ćaci ide u šoping donjeg veša sa (minimum) dva druga/telohranitelja, koliko nas košta Ćacilend (i koliko po Vučiću košta studentski doručak), i kako padaju sveže renovirani plafoni u školama dok deca nisu tu (srećom!). Komentarišemo i izjave Patrijarha iz Moskve o "Cvetnaja revoluciji" i prvi diplomatski "blam" novog premijera na sahrani Pape. Pozivamo vas da podržite prosvetare preko akcije "Umetnost solidarnosti" i najavljujemo protest u Subotici 17. maja. Usput, otkrivamo kompleksnost tržišta šolja, tajnu zapleta Sunđer Boba i zašto Makedonci nemaju padeže (ili nas lažu?). Ostavite komentar, lajkujte ako vam se svidelo i pretplatite se za još epizoda!

Stigla je nova, možda i najhaotičnija doza Njuz POPkasta! U epizodi #56, Jelisaveta je nepodnošljivo srećna (što izluđuje Marka), Viktor je pronašao prečicu do statusa 'pročitao sam Uliksa' (moralno upitno, ali efikasno!), Nenad lista magazin koji slavi smrt (bukvalno!), a svi zajedno otkrivamo da su kiflice novi vladari Beograda. Vodimo vas kroz lavirint preporuka gde ćete čuti o: - Serijama koje preispituju smisao postojanja (ili barem algoritam vašeg Netflix naloga) - Filmovima o propalim zvezdama industrije za odrasle i preživelima nemogućeg - Knjigama koje spajaju teologiju i triler na najneočekivaniji način - Muzici koja ide od sofisticiranog Father John Misty-ja do... pa, recimo samo da Bugarska ima hitove koje NISTE očekivali (Zdravo, Preslava!). I naravno, predstavljamo i najnoviji Njuz merch – šolje lepše od prethodnih i stikeri koji preživljavaju apokalipsu (skoro). Znamo da jedva čekate imena i linkove, ali moraćete malo da se strpite i uživate u našem nagađanju i prepiranju!
188. epizodi Njuz Podkasta, pričamo o svemu – od lifestyle cegera do državnog zvučnog topa. Saznajte zašto RTS emituje košarku umesto vesti, kako Vučić doživljava aplauze kao terapiju, ko su studenti-heroji i zašto je najlepši biciklista iz Strazbura razočarao Jelisavetu. Tu je i trijumvirat idealnih predsedničkih kandidata (Đoković, Grigorije, Bodiroga), analiza izjave "Mama više voli Andreja", najava štafetnog maratona do Brisela, ali i potpuna analiza blokade RTS-a – od šatora do Ćacija. Na kraju: da li nas je neko zaista gadjao zvučnim topom i šta na to kažu “ruski stručnjaci”?
U 187. epizodi Njuz podkasta – direktno sa aerodroma – komentarišemo sve od šatora ispred Skupštine i ne-toliko-misteriozne krađe plastičnih stolica, do pljeskavica koje su zasenile govor predsednika. Nik Sloter podržava studente, Relja Ognjanović se reinkarnira u redara pod fantomkom, a Novi Pazar dokazuje da kultura protesta ipak postoji. Upoznajte novu vladu, obiđite Ćacilend, saznajte ko je od opozicionara spreman za borilačke veštine i zašto je Viktor „već 15 godina u pravu“.
Psihoterapija je skupa, ali ovaj podkast nije! U goste nam dolazi Roberto Grujičić, psihijatar i jedan od @dvaipopsihijatra da zajedno provalimo zašto nas fikcija pogađa jače od stvarnosti. Pričamo o serijama koje ostave prazninu u duši, filmovima posle kojih zurimo u plafon, i knjigama koje nas nateraju da zapišemo: „aha, ovo sam ja“. Ne britnite, ima i humora. Dotakli smo se i onog večitog pitanja – da li su psihijatri ludi, ili samo znaju šta je ludilo? Ako voliš da premotavaš čak i kad ti je sve jasno, i da analiziraš čak i ono očigledno – klikni i poslušaj. Ovaj podkast još nikog nije izlečio, ali bar ume dobro da zabavi! Lista svega posle premijere. Ali stvarno. ☕️ Oaza je prvi 100% biljni proizvod kompanije Imlek, čekirajte dve nove opcije i javite nam utiske
U 186. epizodi Njuz podkasta pokušavamo da pohvatamo sve: Ko je šijun Ćaci, ko ide peške, ko ide biciklom, ko se vozi bez tablica – a ko je čovek koji je mandatar za premijera? Studente bicikliste na putu do Strazbura dočekuju ljudi po selima i gradovima, dok vlast šalje „hodajući performans“ sa Kosova ka Beogradu – bez rančeva, ali sa žuljićima. Saznali smo i da će skup 12. aprila biti prilika da Vučić – sam sebi – iznese zahteve. Ćeda Jovanović ulazi u novu formu: „politički komentator u multiple choice modu“. U sve to umešani su i ćaci sa skrivenim kamerama, studenti s plenuma i likovi u fantomkama koji se voze crnim Audijem bez tablica. I ne – to nije trejler za Netflix dokumentarac, to je Srbija prethodne nedelje.
185. epizoda Njuz podkasta donosi potpuni pregled sedmice u kojoj je satira postala stvarnost, a vlast postala imitator. Studenti blokiraju redakciju Informera – vlast reaguje duksericama. „Students are Champions“ dres kod se seli u „Ćacilend“, gde pro-vladini aktivisti nose kopiju dukseva koju je prvo nosio Novak Đoković inspiraisan studentima. Kreativnost nula, budžet neograničen. Vučićevi mitinzi se zakazuju u skladu sa retrogradnim Merkurom – izgleda da su astrolozi novi strateški savetnici, a termin velikog skupa (11–13. april) slučajno dolazi odmah nakon studentskih. Ako više ne znaš šta da radiš – pitaj zvezde. U isto vreme, profesori su fizički napadani, studenti voze biciklom za Strazbur, a građani se sve više okupljaju na „zborovima na gajbi“ – jer ništa više nije formalno, ali je sve više ozbiljno. I taman kad pomisliš da ne može bizarnije, dolazi novi američki ambasador... s nunčakama. Ako ti je ova nedelja bila konfuzna – nisi jedini. U ovoj epizodi razvezujemo čvorove, uz dozu satire, ironije i pokušaj da ostanemo normalni.
Kako izgleda kada jedna serija pokrene lavinu pitanja koja prevazilaze ekran? U ovoj epizodi Njuz POPkasta razgovaramo o Adolescence – moćnoj Netflix mini-seriji koja bez kompromisa otvara teme nasilja među mladima, uticaja interneta, incel kulture i roditeljskog preispitivanja. Ali ne ostajemo samo na tome. Uz Adolescence, pričamo i o drugim naslovima iz sveta serija i filmova, o onome što nas je zaintrigiralo, pogodilo ili možda čak razočaralo. Dotakli smo se i muzike koja nam je ove nedelje ostala u glavi – bilo da je reč o novim izdanjima ili starim favoritima. Poseban deo epizode posvećujemo knjizi "Mišica koja je nosila slona", autorke Jasmine Gavrilov Dražić. Ovo predivno napisano i ilustrovano delo za decu nas je potpuno osvojilo, i sigurni smo da će i vas. Ostanite do kraja i pogledajte šta smo vam spremili u preko tri i po sata podkasta. ☕️ Oaza je prvi 100% biljni proizvod kompanije Imlek, čekirajte dve nove opcije i javite nam utiske
U 184. epizodi Njuz podkasta analiziramo burnu političku nedelju u Srbiji: Kako se zvučno oružje pretvara u Bluetooth zvučnik, zašto građani širom zemlje gađaju jaja na štandove, i šta znači kada se predsednik odjednom distancira od sopstvene stranke i pokreće novi pokret? Govori se i o ćaci kampanji, paradoksu doktora koji odbijaju da leče, skupštinskim incidentima i ozbiljnim optužbama za represiju prema građanima i aktivistima. Tu su i sarkastični osvrti na Vučićevu „novu jašu“ i losos koji košta kao plata. U drugom delu pričamo o mentalnom zdravlju, digitalnom preopterećenju, i ličnim pokušajima da se ostane normalan u nenormalnim okolnostima. Na kraju, najavljujemo gostovanja u Podgorici i Briselu, i povratak “Lik laže” majica u shop. Ako ste se pitali da li je ovo normalno? – niste jedini. Zato smo tu.
U novoj epizodi Njuz Podkasta analiziramo kako je projekat Ćacilend postao potpuni fijasko – lažni studenti, batinaši u crnim jaknama i pokušaji izazivanja haosa na protestima. Osim toga, bavimo se i misterioznim zvučnim napadima tokom protesta. Osećaj vrtoglavice, jak pritisak u grudima i neobični zvuci doveli su do sumnji da je vlast koristila vortex cannon – uređaj sposoban da izazove haos u masi. Šta kažu analize, a šta vlast pokušava da sakrije? Takođe, pratimo i novi upad Nemanje Šarovića među ćacije, kao i manipulaciju režima – od spinova na Pinku i Informeru do kontramitinga i pritisaka na demonstrante i aktiviste. Smeh, satira i brutalna realnost – sve na jednom mestu!
U ovoj epizodi pričamo o najboljim serijama trenutno, uključujući White Lotus, Weeds, Silo i mnoge druge!
U novoj epizodi Njuz podkasta (Ep. 182) bavimo se najvećim hitom sezone – Ćacilendom! Ko su tajanstveni „sudenti” koji zdušno podržavaju vlast, kako izgledaju njihovi šatori u Pionirskom parku i zašto cela priča deluje kao loša amaterska predstava? Naravno, ne preskačemo ni naše omiljene aktere – Aleksandar Vučić ponovo je u kampanji (jer kad nije?), RTS se trudi da ne primeti haos pred svojim vratima, a Nemanja Šarović uspeo je da uleti među ćacije, napravi lom i bude izbačen pre nego što ste stigli da trepnete. Pored toga, pričamo o Selakovićevom magično izlečenom nosu, policajcu kojeg je nokautirala – policija, i, naravno, o Vučićevom dramatičnom odlasku u Urgentni centar – jer ako nema fotke, nije se ni desilo! Sve je na granici realnosti i potpunog apsurda, ali mi smo tu da sve to ispratimo uz dosta smeha. Zato, pridružite nam se u 182. epizodi – ako već prolazimo kroz ovaj cirkus, hajde da se barem dobro zabavimo!
Od naučne fantastike, preko Palestinaca u Americi do Alfa i Alo, Alo samo su neke od serija koje smo spomuli u ovoj epizodi. A pričali smo i o PZE 2025, Oskaru, Rusima koji pokušavaju da ulaze u robote, ali i sadržajima u kojima se spominju jaki ženski likovi.
Malo o bakljama, malo o jajima i rejv Vulinu.
Prethodan nedelja bila je obeležena jajima. I bajadericama. I ponekim hapšenjem. Manje voljenom decom. I intervjuom na Insajderu.
Prethodnog vikenda Kragujevac je opravdao epitet prve srpske prestonice i raširenih ruku dočekali ljude iz svih krajeva Srbije raširenih ruku. S druge strane, u Sremskoj Mitrovici... veliki državni skup A. Vučića i pratnje nije prošao kako su se nadali. Podržite FDU studentski podkast i zapratite njihov kanal @FDUBLOKADE ----
Posle najvećeg skupa u istoriji na Autkomandi, usledi je novi najveći skupu, ovaj put u Novom Sadu. Pričali smo i o Vučićevoj mini turneji po malim mestima koja se završila krajnje neslavno. A mi smo bilu u Novom Sadu u Rektoratu i sasvim je sigurno da su nam studenti vratili nadu u mlade ljude. Pogledajte naše gostovanje u podkastu "Zdrava priča sa Dolores"
Svi smo svesni situacije u okruženju, a ova jubilarna epizoda Njuz POPkasta je tu da vam pruži ultimativni vodič kroz kulturu za vreme protesta. Spisak predloga uskoro! ----
Veliki broj nesrećnih đokica osvanuo je preko noći na beogradskim ulicama - stradali su mostovi i nadvožnjaci, zidovi i pločnici, te školska dvorišta. Da, školska dvorišta. Pričamo o tome čija je ovo bila ideja i kakva je reakcija javnosti. Osvrnuli smo se i na posetu Davosu predsednika Vučića, hrabre ljude po manjim mestima koji su ustali protiv nepravde i šta sve mi možemo da uradimo protiv ružnih grafita. Nismo zaboravili ni posetu Jovane Jeremić Americi, kao ni mesteriju nestanka Vulinove slike. Dok svi tražimo Ćacija da ga vratimo u školu, prenosimo vam i uputstvo kako da postupate stura povodom Generalnog štrajka
Vratili smo se sa odmora i priredili vam jednu maratonsku epizodu Njuz POPkasta. Pričali smo servisu SkyShowtime i šta nudi na našem tržištu. Neizostavna je priča o drugoj i dugo očekivanoj sezoni serije Squid Game. Da li Đulijano de Empoli piše fikciju ili svoje memoare, zašto se Dražić ponovo bavi japanskim spisateljicama i šta donosi novi roman Sali Runi? U muzičkom delu pričali smo o najvećem iznenađenju na domaćoj sceni krajem prošle godine - saradnji DeVita i Osvajača, kao i o dokumentarcima o muzičkim legendama Tini Tarner i Avicii. Spisak preporuka izlazi za dan dva, budite strpljivi!
Vraćamo se sa novom sezonom Njuz Podkasta. Sumiraćemo protekle dve sedmice koje su obeležene najglasnijom tišinom i serijom nebitnih gostovanja lika koga su studenti proglasili nebitnim. Batinaši su sa ulica prešli na fakultete, studentima su okačili mete, ali blokade ne staju. Propratili smo i odlazak Jovane Jeremić u Ameriku (drugi put, i to samo mi, niko drugi), a pitamo se gde je nestao Šapić. A mi se vidimo uskoro i na nekom od fakulteta. Vidmo se i ovog vikenda, 18. i 19. januara u Ljubljani, Borza piva! Požurite, ostalo je još jako malo vremena. Darko Crnogorac i Grafa gostuju u Beču, 25. januara u organizaciji SKForuma! Nova tura dukseva stiže u naš šop, proveravajte naše društvene mreže za više informacija ili na sajtu http://shop.njuzn.net Snimak studentskih protesta 31.12.2024: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZB9Gclpw_A
Pitali ste nas, molili, bombardovali porukama i na kraju smo odlučili da vam ispunimo želju - po prvi put u novogodišnjoj noći u jednom podkastu skupili su se svi Njuz podkasteri + jedna posebna gošća! Gledamo se i slušamo u novoj 2025. godini! ----
Prethodnog vikenda prisustvovali smo možda najvećem protestu u istoriji Srbije - preko 100.000 ljudi skupilo se da oda počast poginulima u padu nadstrešnice u Novom Sadu i podrži studente koji su već nedeljama istrajni u zahtevima da se ispune njihovi zahtevi. A pričali smo i o nekim drugim temama. Foto: IG screenshot Stevan Filipovic http://www.instagram.com/sejtanov_radnik
U ovom posebnom, prednovogodišnjem izdanju POPkasta, ugostili smo ponovo na vaš zahtev Dejana Nikolića, osnivača Njuza i kolegu podkastera. Pričali smo o jednoj seriji koju nam predlažete iz nedelje u nedelju, ali i filmovima i serijama koje slobodno možete da preskočite tokom praznika.
Protesti zbog smrti 15 ljudi u Novom Sadu i ćutanja vlasti se ne smiruju. Blokade su se sa fakulteta spustile na srednje škole i gimnazije. A jedan čovek je na Andrićevom vencu držao konferenciji sa 5 registratora uz huku pod prozorom. Pričali smo i o incidentima na protestima i batinašima u roza gaćama.
Centralna tema ove nedelje je protest studenata i blokada više od 30 fakulteta u Srbiji. Da li su studenti u pravu, ko sme da im stane na crtu i da li će blokada pasti, pričamo u najnovijoj epizodi Njuz PODkasta. ❄️ Bliži se nova godina, kupite NJUZ majice i dukseve, stikere i šolje: https://shop.njuz.net ---
Još jedna epizoda Njuz POPkasta ostala je do Nove godine, ali ne brinite, to nije ova. Pričali smo o filmu "Dražen", ali i seriji koja je potpuno ludilo mozga. Tu su i (anti)preporuke za filmove i serije, kao i knjiga na koju je Dražić izneo osvrt.
I ove nedelje sumiramo ko je sve nervirao predsednika Vučića.
Today I'm joined by author Kris Spisak to chat all about her newest (and fifth!) book, Becoming Baba Yaga. Becoming Baba Yaga (https://redwheelweiser.com/book/becoming-baba-yaga-9781642970517/) is an in depth look at the Baba Yaga mythos and history through Slavic folklore. The book is filled with historical and cultural context and analyses, and is a comprehensive resource for anyone hoping to learn more about this ambiguous character and how her multifaceted presence still ripples through the present day. Spisak explores Baba Yaga's connection to nature as an Earth goddess and as an herbalist. She also delves into the Shadow Self and Baba Yaga's aspect as a trickster and places her in a modern context as not merely a witch of the woods but also as an archetype and force for finding your own path.

As head of Product Management for Generative AI at Meta, Joe Spisak leads the team behind Llama, which just released the new 3.1 405B model. We spoke with Joe just two days after the model's release to ask what's new, what it enables, and how Meta sees the role of open source in the AI ecosystem. Joe shares that where Llama 3.1 405B really focused is on pushing scale (it was trained on 15 trillion tokens using 16,000 GPUs) and he's excited about the zero-shot tool use it will enable, as well as its role in distillation and generating synthetic data to teach smaller models. He tells us why he thinks even frontier models will ultimately commoditize—and why that's a good thing for the startup ecosystem.

Yes hello! In the latest episode of Ultraculture, join Jason Louv in conversation with Kris Spisak as she explores the folklore of the trickster, villain, and rescuer known as Baba Yaga in a new light. When darkness, fear, and instability inundate our daily lives, folktale figures like Baba Yaga speak to the dichotomy of our existence—the hope and the horror, the magic and the mundane. At once an old hag and an enchantress, a demon and wish granter, a feminist and nothing more than a fairytale, Baba Yaga is an endlessly complex folktale character. Becoming Baba Yaga provides an in-depth look at the Baba Yaga mythos and history through Slavic folklore. Filled with historical and cultural context, analyses, and the stories themselves that add depth to the conversation. A comprehensive resource for anyone hoping to learn more about this ambiguous character and how her multifaceted presence still ripples through the present day, Becoming Baba Yaga is as thoughtful as it is illuminating. Spisak explores Baba Yaga's connection to nature as an Earth goddess and as an herbalist. She also delves into the Shadow Self and Baba Yaga's aspect as a trickster and places her in a modern context as not merely a witch of the woods but also as an archetype and force for finding your own path. Becoming Baba Yaga shares how she is both a force for good as much as evil and a feminist before her time. Links & Resources:

Silco, Oswald Cobblepot, Ollivander, Wally West, Forager... our guest at this time, Jason Spisak, voiced all of them and countless more. During our interesting talk, we discussed the art of voice acting and how much of the acting is in the voice acting, how Jason prepares and finds voices for his characters, the "physical" part of voice acting, and how he enters and (if he ever) leaves his roles. We had the chance to hear re-enactments of the best lines from Silco, multiple Harry Potter characters, Young Justice, and even sounds of orcs from the Shadow of Mordor video games and his attempt to voiceover Montenegrin accent. Jason went deep into the psychology of the characters like Forager, how listening to the documentary about cicadas gave him inspiration about it, and how he understands Silco, his relationship with Jinx, the conflict between Piltover and Zaun, as he exclusively confirmed he is coming back as Silco in Season 2 of Arcane!
