Der Schriftsteller Martin R. Dean erzählt im Roman «Tabak und Schokolade» seine tabuisierte Familiengeschichte: eine Geschichte des Kolonialismus, der Traumata, der Entwurzelung. Yves Bossart spricht mit ihm über verdrängte Vergangenheiten, über Rassismus und über das Fremdsein in der Welt. Martin R. Dean hat die ersten Jahre seines Lebens in der Karibik verbracht, in Trinidad und Tobago, der Heimat seines Vaters. Die Vorfahren des Vaters stammten aus Indien und wurden Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts als «Kontraktarbeiter» unter sklavenähnlichen Bedingungen in die Karibik verschifft, um für die britische Kolonialmacht auf den Kakaoplantagen zu arbeiten. Deans Mutter stammt aus dem Aargau und war die Tochter von «Stumpenfabrikarbeitern», die den Tabak aus Übersee in Rauchware umformten. In Deans Familiengeschichte spiegelt sich ein Stück verdrängte Kolonialgeschichte. Seine Hautfarbe wurde schnell zum Tabu im konservativen Dorf. Was hat das mit ihm gemacht? Wie versöhnt man sich mit der eigenen traumatischen Vorgeschichte? Und wie lernt man, das Fremde als solches wertzuschätzen? Wiederholung vom 5. Januar 2025

From the heart of Trinidad and Tobago

Joe Pardavila is joined by Judy McCutcheon, CEO of Go Blue Consulting and author of Unfiltered and Unapologetic, for a raw and inspiring conversation about reclaiming authenticity in a world that often demands self-sacrifice.  Judy opens up about her journey from growing up in Tobago as one of ten children in a single-parent household to becoming a global leadership consultant, sharing how her mother's resilience and a near-death medical emergency reshaped her outlook on life.  Dive into discussions on balancing unapologetic truth-telling with kindness, the critical role of self-awareness in leadership, and why intention matters more than blunt honesty in the workplace. Judy also reveals how cultural empathy—and a love of food—fuels her consulting work across the Caribbean, North America, and beyond.  Whether you're navigating leadership challenges, seeking empowerment, or curious about breaking cycles of self-doubt, this episode is a masterclass in living boldly—and kindly. Tune in for stories that will challenge your perspective and practical insights to transform your personal and professional life.

Sporting KC finally returned to the friendly confines of Children's Mercy Park on Saturday Night, but were unable to give the fans a victory as they fell to FC Dallas 4-2.  SKC was able to take the early lead again in this one off of a pretty curling shot from the top of the box by Shapi Suleymanov, but in a familiar refrain the team was unable to maintain their defensive posture in central midfield, and FC Dallas used it to pull them out of shape prior to a nice crossed ball from Shaq Moore onto the foot of Petar Musa equalized.Then things got a bit weird, as the referee made a couple tight calls against Sporting KC leading to a penalty for Lucho Acosta, and an early trip to the showers for Khiry Shelton as Sporting had to play down a man for the last half hour plus stoppage time while already down 2-1 on the score sheet.  I think it is fair to credit SKC with the fact that they did still try pretty aggressively to attack Dallas' goal even with the man disadvantage, but that led to two more fairly simple finishes for Bernard Kamungo and Lucho Acosta, meaning that outside of a late consolation goal from Santi Munoz, that SKC would be heading into this 10 day break having two straight losses after having seeming to have somewhat righted the ship prior to that..The USMNT drama continued last week with Christian Pulisic and Mauricio Pochettino trading public barbs, before they thoroughly dismantled a Trinidad and Tobago team that seemed mostly disinterested in even attempting to play in their Gold Cup opener.  That wasn't the only fun performance this weekend though, as the Kansas City Current continued their dominance at the top of the league while still missing several key players.  They did let Louisville back into this one late but then Temwa did what Temwa does and iced it after a nice ball from Claire Hutton sent her running down the flank and Temwa did the rest.

At 10:30am, we will have a chance to meet a member of the USMNT who was also born in Baltimore, Alex Freeman, who made his first USMNT this Summer and played all 90' in team USA's 5-0 win over Trinidad & Tobago in game 1 of the Gold Cup Sunday night.

Send us a textThis week on The Corie Sheppard Podcast, we sit down with Glen Niles, founder and president of the Down Syndrome Family Network. What started as a deeply personal journey—navigating the unexpected birth of his son Tyrese with Down syndrome—evolved into a national advocacy movement challenging outdated systems, stigma, and silence.Glen shares the emotional rollercoaster of diagnosis, surgery, and early parenting, and how anger turned into purpose. He opens up about building the Down Syndrome Family Network from scratch, pushing for inclusive education, workplace integration, and most importantly, disability legislation in Trinidad and Tobago.This is a powerful story about resilience, fatherhood, social transformation, and the fight to move from charity to rights. It's about what happens when we stop seeing disability as a limitation and start seeing people for their full potential.

Ever feel trapped in your own box? In this brutally honest episode, Mss Francois (the Multi-talented and Super Sexy powerhouse from Trinidad and Tobago) exposes the immigrant journey nobody talks about—being kicked to the curb with her belongings in garbage bags just months after arriving in America.She doesn't sugarcoat it: "It sucked. I hated it." But from those black trash bags emerged unfiltered wisdom on building success when nobody believes in you. Discover why strangers often lift you higher than your own family, why your phone contacts list might be sabotaging your future, and how to escape the perfection trap that's killing your progress.This isn't your typical "work hard and succeed" pep talk. It's a no-bullshit conversation about recognizing when fear of success is more paralyzing than fear of failure, why your team doesn't need to be physically near you to change your life, and how humor can literally heal your body while building your confidence.Follow Mss Francois: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mss-francois-31350a1b3/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MssFrancois/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mss_francois/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mss_francois Twitter: https://x.com/Mss_Francois?s=09 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheMssFrancoisShow1As always we ask you to comment, DM, whatever it takes to have a conversation to help you take the next step in your journey, reach out on any platform!Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram, Tiktok, LinkedinDISCLOSURE: Awards and rankings by third parties are not indicative of future performance or client investment success.

His commitment to sport has led to the organizing of high-profile events, including the FIFA U-17 World Cup and the Carifta Games, showcasing Tobago on the global stage. In recognition of his contributions, George was awarded the Chaconia Medal (Silver), a prestigious honor in Trinidad and Tobago, which highlights his impact not only in sports but also in media.

After spending 10 years in Trinidad and Tobago searching for the “modern Caribbean” lifestyle I had always envisioned—one that combined island living with tech-driven convenience—I finally found it in the most unexpected place: Thailand. In this episode, I take you on a deep dive into how Southern Thailand, with its breathtaking beaches, advanced digital infrastructure, and seamless logistics, delivered the lifestyle I had long been chasing in the Caribbean. I break down the day-to-day experience of living in the Thai islands, the technologies that make life frictionless, and the surprising lessons that CARICOM and Caribbean entrepreneurs can learn from Asia's playbook. This is not a vacation story. It's a blueprint for a new kind of island living—one that's possible when innovation meets paradise. Key Takeaways: 1. Island Living Doesn't Have to Mean Backward Systems Most of us associate tropical living with slow internet, limited services, and poor infrastructure—but Thailand proves otherwise. From 5G mobile service and QR code payments (even with street vendors) to affordable accommodations and logistics that run like clockwork, Thailand shows what's possible when islands prioritize digital convenience. 2. Technology Is the Bridge That Makes Integration Seamless Living in a non-English-speaking country with a different alphabet could've been a massive barrier—but it wasn't. Thanks to Google Maps, Translate, YouTube, and local super apps like Grab, Gowabi, Lazada, and Moreta Pay, I've been able to work, travel, and live stress-free across Thailand's islands. Technology has removed the friction from daily life. 3. This Should Be the Blueprint for the Caribbean The lifestyle I've found in Thailand—accessible, affordable, and supported by tech—shouldn't feel like a fantasy for Caribbean residents. CARICOM nations can take inspiration from Southeast Asia by improving logistics, embracing mobile-first solutions, and building infrastructure that supports both residents and tourists alike. We don't need to wait for luxury resorts—we need to build smarter systems from the ground up.   Learn more about building your digital presence at KeronRose.com or follow the podcast at Digipreneur.FM the website.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this compelling episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. La Toya Luces-Sampson—known as Dr. Toya—to discuss her transformative journey through medicine, from her beginnings in Trinidad and Tobago to her training as an OB/GYN in the US, and ultimately her bold decision to step away from clinical practice. Dr. Toya candidly opens up about her experiences with burnout in residency and corporate medicine, the toll it took on her personal well-being, and the moments that sparked real change in her career and life. She shares how a leap into entrepreneurship during the COVID-19 pandemic rekindled her confidence and purpose beyond clinical work, eventually inspiring her to become a coach for physician moms navigating medicine and motherhood. Dr. Toya reveals practical tools she used for efficiency, like templates and support systems, and emphasizes the importance of advocacy, boundaries, and accepting support—whether at work or at home. Tune in for an honest, inspiring conversation about resilience, redefining success in medicine, and the power of community and self-compassion in building a sustainable clinical career. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Support Matters at Work and Home: Whether advocating for yourself in a tough clinical environment or building a support system at home, allowing yourself to be supported is crucial. As Dr. La Toya shared, “We have worked so hard to get where we are. Allow yourself to be supported.” Efficiency and Boundaries Fight Burnout: La Toya emphasized the power of systems, templates, and boundaries, both in patient care and personal life. Tackling the inbox right away, leveraging dictation and templates, and having clear work/home boundaries helped her stay efficient—and sane. Burnout Isn't the End—It's a Call to Innovate:Experiencing burnout multiple times gave Dr. La Toya new perspectives and fueled her pivot into entrepreneurship and coaching. She now empowers physician moms to carve their own pathways—inside or outside medicine: “They can stay in medicine if that's what they want. They can leave medicine if that's what they want. They can find their balance.” Dr. La Toya Luces-Sampson Bio: Dr. La Toya Luces-Sampson aka Dr. Toya, is a wife, mother, board-certified Obstetrician and Gynecologist, perinatal mental health specialist, and Coach. She helps Physician Moms thrive in medicine and motherhood without complete self-sacrifice. With over a decade of experience in women's health, Dr. Toya empowers physician moms through private and group coaching and her podcast, ✨Stethoscopes and Strollers✨ a space where physician moms can feel a little more seen and a lot less alone. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?
