Z výsledků mezinárodního testování žáků PISA si může každý vybrat to, co se mu hodí v aktuální bouřlivé debatě o vzdělávání, rozpočtu, inkluzi nebo o zákazu mobilů. Čeští žáci jsou ve čtenářské, matematické i přírodovědné gramotnosti stále nad průměrem vyspělých zemí světa (OECD), jejich výsledky však dlouhodobě klesají a propad mezi lety 2022 a 2025 je znepokojivý.Všechny díly podcastu Názory a argumenty můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

Radosť cez slzy. Aj takto by sa dali hodnotiť výsledky našich stredoškolákov v medzinárodnom testovaní PISA. Testovali sa vedomosti a zručnosti v prírodných vedách, matematike a čítaní. A testovalo sa 760 tisíc žiakov z 91 krajín.Spomedzi krajín V štvorky mali naši žiaci najhoršie výsledky. Na druhej strane sme v matematike dosiahli výrazný pokrok a vyrovnali sme sa Fínsku. To sa ale v rebríčku dlhodobo prepadáva.Aké výsledky teda dosiahli naši 15 ročný žiaci? Prečo obstáli dobre v matematike, no problém im robí čitateľská gramotnosť? Prečo minister školstva hovorí o malom povzbudení? Ako sú na tom naši žiaci v porovnaní so svetom? A čo tie výsledky pre nás a budúcnosť Slovenska vlastne znamenajú? Čo všetko by sme mali v školstve zmeniť?Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s analytikom inštitútu INESS a expertom na školstvo Róbertom Chovanculiakom a s exministrom školstva a poslancom za KDH Jánom Horeckým.

Chystáš se na pláž, používáš krém s SPFkem, ale na internetu pořád někdo tvrdí, že by sis místo toho měl vypěstovat „solární mozol“? MUDr. Zůza s Dr. Aničkou si v této epizodě Loono podcastu berou na paškál zdravotní rady, trendy a bizáry, které na nás vyskakují ze sociálních sítí, a řeší, jestli je potřeba z péče o zdraví udělat 17krokovou rutinu.Dozvíš se, proč tě malinový olej před sluncem úplně nezachrání a proč ani SPF 50+ není vstupenka k celodennímu opékání na pláži. Dojde na houbovou i normální ranní kávu, desítky suplementů, hon za životem do 120 let i na to, proč je někdy lepší být trochu víc old Italian guy a trochu si ten život užít.A kromě trendů ve zdraví dojde i na trendy v IMAXu.

Každý z nás jistě zaznamenal, že v pohádkách se motiv často opakuje třikrát. Toho si nelze nevšimnout. Kdo se však do knížek začte skutečně důkladně, objeví spojitostí mezi matematikou a literaturou celou řadu. Právě to udělala britská matematička Sarah Hartová v knize Za devatero nulami.
Continúa nuestro viaje por todas las películas japonesas de Godzilla, con una segunda parada en la era Heisei: los siete títulos producidos por Toho entre 1984 y 1995. Frente a las fuertes oscilaciones de la anterior era Showa entre lo lúgubre, lo infantil y lo delirante, encontramos aquí una mayor continuidad narrativa y estética, consolidada sobre todo a partir de «Godzilla vs. Biollante» (1989) por el guionista y director Kazuki Ōmori y el director de efectos especiales Kōichi Kawakita. La acción, la tecnología de vanguardia y la geopolítica son algunas de sus principales fijaciones, aunque las películas también van mutando al compás del blockbuster de éxito más reciente al que copiar sin complejos. La era Heisei buscó además distanciarse del tono infantil y del carácter amigable que había adquirido el Godzilla de los setenta, por entonces absolutamente denostados. De ahí que sus creadores decidieran resucitar al kaiju original de «Godzilla. Japón bajo el terror del monstruo» (1954) y plantearan su primera entrega, «El retorno de Godzilla» (1984), como una secuela directa que obviaba toda la producción posterior. Con ello recuperaron su carácter amenazante, pero sin perder la ambivalencia característica de la saga entre la hostilidad y el afecto hacia el gran monstruo de Japón. Y tampoco consiguieron desprenderse del todo, aunque a veces parecieran pretenderlo, de su inclinación al delirio argumental: viajes en el tiempo, cíborgs, mechas, poderes psíquicos y monstruos del espacio conviven con una voluntad constante de tomarse en serio a Godzilla. Una tensión entre solemnidad y desmesura inseparable del enorme mito nacional en el que ya se había convertido la criatura. De ahí que una de las apuestas más fuertes de la Toho fuera la muerte anunciada del monstruo en la última entrega Heisei, «Godzilla vs. Destoroyah» (1995), cerrando así el ciclo que había comenzado once años antes con su resurrección. Tras los micros continúan Miguel Muñoz Garnica y José Luis Forte, a los que se suma Julio Bernad, nuestro paleontólogo de confianza.

Výtah Respektu: Kanada od 8. září zavede cla ve výši od patnácti do padesáti procent na zboží dovážené ze Spojených států. Země to oznámila v úterý navečer. Kanadský premiér už o víkendu řekl, že se jeho země ocitla v obchodní válce s USA, což byla reakce na krach obchodních jednání z konce minulého týdne, po kterém Washington zavedl padesáti procentní clo na dovoz kanadského zboží. Čeho přesně se cla týkají? Jak to na obě země dopadne ekonomicky i politicky? Jak se k obchodní válce staví americká i kanadská společnost? A kdo by z aktuální situace mohl profitovat? I na tyto otázky odpovídá ve středeční epizodě Dominika Perlínová.

Ana Mateu Cifre comenta con Arconada los estrenos de cine de la semana, además de toda la actualidad cultural con Encarna Jiménez y Ayanta Barilli. En esta entrega de recomendaciones de series para el fin de semana, los colaboradores de esRadio Juanma González y Dani Palacios nos proponen una selección de producciones de terror ideales para disfrutar durante las jornadas veraniegas. Comienzan con un clásico indiscutible de la televisión en España, Historias para no Dormir, la mítica obra de Chicho Ibáñez Serrador. La versión original, estrenada en TVE en el año 1966, es una obra maestra de ingenio donde el realizador logró aterrorizar a todo un país con escasos recursos materiales y la inestimable ayuda de su padre, Narciso Ibáñez Menta. Con el paso de los años, el formato ha vivido varias etapas, incluyendo una serie de películas a principios del siglo XXI en Telecinco bajo el título Películas para no Dormir, en la que participaron directores de renombre como Paco Plaza, Jaume Balagueró o Álex de la Iglesia. Recientemente, la plataforma de streaming Prime Video recuperó el espíritu de la franquicia con nuevas versiones dirigidas por cineastas contemporáneos de la talla de Rodrigo Sorogoyen o Rodrigo Cortés. La segunda recomendación es otra joya clásica de finales de los setenta, El Misterio de Salem's Lot, estrenada en 1979. Esta miniserie adapta una de las primeras y más aclamadas novelas del célebre escritor estadounidense Stephen King. Bajo la dirección de Tobe Hooper –conocido por dirigir la mítica película de culto La Matanza de Texas–, la producción se convirtió en un referente absoluto del género de vampiros. Con un reparto liderado por David Soul, James Mason y Bonnie Bedelia, la serie dejó grabadas en la retina de toda una generación escenas verdaderamente espeluznantes, como la del niño flotando y llamando a la ventana. Como curiosidad de la época, en España esta miniserie se llegó a distribuir en los videoclubes bajo el engañoso título de Fantasma II, en un burdo intento de los distribuidores de hacerla pasar por la secuela de otra película de éxito, a pesar de no guardar ninguna relación argumental. A continuación, los críticos de esRadio destacan The Terror, una serie de antología que cuenta con tres temporadas disponibles en Prime Video y Netflix. Sin embargo, ponen especial énfasis en la soberbia primera temporada, basada en la novela homónima de Dan Simmons. La trama reconstruye de forma ficcionada la fatídica expedición real de la Royal Navy británica, en la que los navíos HMS Erebus y HMS Terror quedaron atrapados en el hielo del Ártico mientras buscaban el Paso del Noroeste. La serie logra transmitir una atmósfera asfixiante, gélida y claustrofóbica en la que la tripulación debe enfrentarse no solo al hambre, al frío extremo y al motín, sino también a una misteriosa y letal criatura sobrenatural que los acecha en la inmensidad blanca. Dan Simmons, el autor de la obra original, destaca por su habilidad para entrelazar con maestría el rigor histórico con elementos de ciencia ficción y terror. El espacio televisivo también dedica atención a producciones asiáticas de gran presupuesto disponibles en Netflix que a menudo pasan desapercibidas para el gran público. Una de ellas es El Hombre Vapor, una serie japonesa que adapta un clásico cinematográfico de la productora Toho, conocida mundialmente por las películas de Godzilla. La historia arranca con un planteamiento tan sorprendente como perturbador: una persona explota de forma espontánea durante una emisión en directo en televisión. A partir de ahí, se desata una intriga policial para capturar a un misterioso individuo capaz de transformar su cuerpo en estado gaseoso para cometer asesinatos selectivos. Los colaboradores elogian la factura técnica de la serie, sus logrados efectos especiales y la sólida dirección de un único realizador para mantener una coherencia estética excelente en todos los episodios. Para cerrar la lista, se presentan dos propuestas muy singulares. Por un lado, El Palacio del Este, otra suntuosa serie de época oriental disponible en Netflix, ambientada en el Japón feudal de los samuráis. Su trama gira en torno a la corte real, espíritus y demonios tradicionales japoneses, destacando por su imponente diseño de producción. Por otro lado, para los amantes del anime, se recomienda El Verano en que Hikaru Murió, basada en un popular manga japonés. La historia se centra en dos amigos inseparables de un entorno rural; tras perderse en las montañas, uno de ellos regresa poseído por una extraña entidad. Lo original de la propuesta es que su compañero decide mantener la amistad a pesar de saber que ya no es un ser humano. Con una atmósfera muy sensorial cargada de silencios, el cantar de las cigarras y un toque de romance juvenil, esta serie ofrece una experiencia de terror psicológico sumamente inquietante y conmovedora.
Výtah Respektu: Vedení Prahy tento týden vrátilo kulturní centrum Stalin u bývalého pomníku sovětského diktátora na Letné do tržního řádu. Bude tak moct dál fungovat. Jaký je význam tohoto místa? Proč pražský magistrát už loni nechtěl centru prodloužit nájemní smlouvu? Do jaké míry hraje roli politika? A jaký je podle radních plán s objektem Kasárna Karlín? I o tom mluví ve čtvrteční epizodě Pavel Turek.

CELÝ DÍL NAJDETE NA https://herohero.co/studion A V RÁMCI KLUBOVÉHO PŘEDPLATNÉHO DENÍKU N https://denikn.cz/podcast-studio-n/ „Petr Macinka se nám snaží mstít za to, co píšeme, a chce se vyhnout odpovědím na otázky, které mu chceme klást. Takhle prosté to je,“ reaguje na zákaz vstupu na tiskovou konferenci ministerstva zahraničí šéfredaktor Deníku N Pavel Tomášek. „Nesmíme se nechat rozrušovat šumem, který Macinka vytváří,“ říká investigativní reportérka Zdislava Pokorná. „Zřejmě si myslí, že mě tím odrazuje od práce a brečím po večerech v peřině. Je to přesně naopak. Dodává mi sílu a ukazuje, že je v tom potřeba pokračovat,“ dodává ve Studiu N. Na podporu Deníku N se mezitím ozvali šéfredaktoři dvou dalších médií a nabídli, že na tiskových konferencích položí otázky, které naše redakce klást nemůže. „Myslím, že je to efektivní způsob, jak solidarizovat s Deníkem N a hlavně novinářskou profesí – abychom uhájili její principy,“ říká Tomášek. „Celé to začalo loni na podzim, kdy si vzal Petr Macinka velmi osobně, že jsme zveřejnili nenávistné výroky Filipa Turka.

Am I ready for the 2001: A Space Odyssey? No, I am not! But I'm getting there. Please bear with me. In the meantime, I shall distract you with a chat about one of the most visually delightful of Kaiju Films (Although one of our guests' recommendations may have it beat in visual delights). You can see an array of the stills from Destroy All Monsters on my Instagram account. This is the swinging 60s Japan style!

Godzilla Rodan Angurius Mothra (very tragically in larva form) Gorosaurus Minilla (Godzilla's son who gives me the creeps. Sorry!) Kumonga Baragon Manda Varan King Ghidorah Due to international success the franchise continued on. Hoorah! I have two gargantuan guests for you.

Next episode (if all goes well) we will be talking about the Je t'aime, je t'aime (1968) which is available on BFI player in the UK (which is accessible through Apple TV) but seems very elusive elsewhere. There is a version on YouTube but it is in French. The English title (I Love You, I Love You) did not seem to help. The BluRay is also available but for slightly silly prices outside of the UK from what I can see. I wish you luck in finding it!

Byrd, Kevin and Lux return to discuss the recent Netflix mini series, Human Vapor, a reimagining of Toho's classic 1960 "mutant" film from director Shinzo Katayama (Gannibal, Missing) and writer/producer/showrunner Yeon Sang-ho (Train to Busan, Parasyte: The Grey). This version opts for a brand new story, although it still follows a man who has gained the ability to transform into gas and uses his powers to carry out a murder spree. We follow detective Kenji and reporter Kyoko as they uncover secrets involving unethical science, classism, yakuza, and really bad parents. How did we feel about this radical reinterpretation? Listen and find out! But first, we give our tributes to the late Sam Neil and Kaylee Hottle. Relax and enjoy the conversation!

It's the wildly divisive 50th anniversary movie and Millennium era finale no one expected! Lauren Goodnight returns for a postmodern monster mash and the baby of cult action horror director Ryuhei Kitamura, where a cavalcade of sleek Showa kaiju get taken out by MMA fighter Godzilla while superpowered mutants battle black leather duster-clad aliens in Matrix-inspired fights. Oh, and Don Frye has a sword and gets really sweaty, veteran Toho actors in their 70s are in gunfights, and a British prog rock keyboardist does the score. We talk about the return of the Xiliens, practicality in the suit design, quadrupedal Ghidorah, and how something so stupid can still be hella fun.Find more from Lauren:Twitch | Bluesky | InstagramCover art by: Brett PunkBluesky | InstagramThe Zilla shirt we mention is by Eduardo Martinez @doomdino!Check out Glitterjaw's new variety feed, Glitterjaw Presents!Part of The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast CollectiveCover Art Gallery | Patreon | DiscordEmail: skreeonkpodcast@gmail.comTheme song: "BIO WARS - Synth Cover" by Kweer KaijuSources include: Godzilla: The First 70 Years by Steve Ryfle and Ed GodziszewskiRyuhei Kitamura Interview with Madman.comWikizilla

Greetings listeners! On the scaly heels of my previous episode, I now present the second entry in this "Listening To... " sub-series, covering the music of GODZILLA, the long-lived monster movie series from Japanese film studio Toho. This franchise currently encompasses 38 movies, spanning over seven decades of cinema history and is considered by Guinness to be the longest running continuous film series. I first focused on the music of revered composer Akira Ifukube, who scored roughly half the movies during this original era of the GODZILLA series, called the Showa era, and now in this episode I will explore music from the guest composers. This includes Masaru Sato, Richiro Manabe, Kunio Miyauchi and Yuji Koseki, who, respectively, wrote scores and songs for beloved and even controversial classics of the series such as EBIRAH, HORROR OF THE DEEP, GODZILLA VS. HEDORAH and GODZILLA VS. MECHAGODZILLA. How did each of these composers approach scoring a Godzilla movie - was it in deference to Ifukube's style or was something tonally far removed presented? You might be surprised hear the sounds of big band, swing music and surf rock from these guest composers! Title playtime index: Intro - 00:00 GODZILLA RAIDS AGAIN (aka GIGANTIS, THE FIRE MONSTER) (1955) (Masaru Sato) - 00:03:41 MOTHRA (1961) (Yuji Koseki) - 00:08:00 EBIRAH, HORROR OF THE DEEP (aka GODZILLA VS THE SEA MONSTER) (1966) (Masaru Sato) - 00:10:33 SON OF GODZILLA (1967) (Masaru Sato) - 00:21:27 ALL MONSTERS ATTACK (1969) (Kunio Miyauchi) - 00:31:13 GODZILLA VS HEDORAH (aka GODZILLA VS THE SMOG MONSTER) (1971) (Richiro Manabe) - 00:37:05 GODZILLA VS MEGALON (1973) (Richiro Manabe) - 00:49:05 GODZILLA VS MECHAGODZILLA (1974) (Masaru Sato) - 00:58:54 Wrap up - 01:11:16 Stay safe out there, take care of yourself and each other!

In the spring of 1954, a Japanese fishing vessel called the Lucky Dragon No. 5 sailed into the fallout zone of an American hydrogen bomb test at Bikini Atoll. Its crew came home irradiated, and Japan, a nation still raw from Hiroshima and Nagasaki less than a decade earlier, found itself confronting nuclear terror all over again.Within months, Toho producer Tomoyuki Tanaka, with a collapsed co-production and an empty budget to fill, conceived a monster movie. What emerged from that collision of commercial necessity and national grief was Gojira (aka Godzilla); a film in which director Ishirō Honda, effects genius Eiji Tsuburaya, and a nation's unspoken anguish combined to create something cinema had never quite seen before. The character of Godzilla has evolved over 70 years, embodying contemporary fears and anxieties in a uniquely artistic way.Godzilla was never simply a creature feature. Honda had walked through the ruins of Hiroshima after the war. When his monster surfaced from the Pacific, awakened and mutated by nuclear testing, and reduced Tokyo to ash and radiation, Japanese audiences weren't watching spectacle. They were watching their own grief and trauma on screen. The hospital scenes, the Geiger counters, the dying children: all of it was modelled on the aftermath of atomic destruction. Even the film's resolution; Dr Serizawa destroying his world-ending weapon and himself along with it, posed a moral question about nuclear responsibility that no Western movie of the era came close to asking.As long as countries continue to test and threat with nuclear weapons, as long as that threat persists, so does Godzilla, as a warning to humanity.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?
