Vona Tibor a TBG Production kreatív producere, aki a 2025 márciusában bemutatandó „Mágus – 1920 A káprázat születése” című nagyszabású musical show részleteiről mesél. A Broadway Eventtel közös produkció New York 1920-as éveinek misztikus világába kalauzol, ahol ír bandák és olasz gengszterek világa elevenedik meg, miközben betekintést nyerhetünk a revüszínház kulisszái mögé. A musical nemcsak látványos táncképeket és szenzációs LED-falas vizuális világot ígér, hanem tiszteleg a magyar származású Harry Houdini és kortársai előtt. Vajon mi kell ahhoz, hogy egy musical Magyarországon is világszínvonalú élményt nyújtson? Hogyan áll össze egy ilyen nagyszabású show? És miért most van itt az ideje, hogy a „Mágus” történetét a világ elé tárják? Vona Tibor részleteket árul el a produkció születéséről és alkotásának kihívásairól.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Mi kell ahhoz, hogy az ember ideológiai és stratégiai hajtűkanyarok közepette is megőrizze a hitelességét? Van, akinek sikerül magával vinnie a szavazóit és olyan is, aki teljesen elhasználódik a politikai manőverezésben. Hogy min múlik ez, hogyan tette Orbán a mitológiája szerves részévé az ideológiai kanyarokat,hogyan lehet maga a pálfordulás egy kelendő politikai termék, és ki az, aki elveszíti a hitelességét az ilyen mozgásokban – minderről már régóta beszélni szerettünk volna. Ennek pedig különös apropót szolgáltatott Orbán Balázs, aki a Fidesz külpolitikai hátraarcára irányította a figyelmet.

Speaker: Robert Vona Opening Scripture: Luke 6:46-49 Summary: Bishop Robert Vona began with an emphasis on the faithfulness and goodness of God, reminding listeners to focus on Him amidst life's uncertainties. He drew parallels between Noah's limited vision in the ark and our limited understanding of God's work, encouraging believers to look to God for help and assurance. Using Ecclesiastes 3:11, he highlighted that we cannot fully comprehend God's plans from beginning to end. Vona emphasized the importance of community and mutual support within the church, likening it to the fingerprints left on each other's lives. He shared personal anecdotes about the value of his wife's advice and the necessity of simply trusting that "everything's going to be alright." Transitioning to Luke 6:46-49, Vona discussed the importance of not just hearing, but doing the words of Jesus. He illustrated this with the metaphor of building a house on a solid foundation, emphasizing the need to dig deep in faith and understanding to withstand life's storms. He further elaborated on the necessity of both young and elder voices within the church, urging believers to seek counsel and to strive for unity and support. Drawing from Genesis 26, Vona explained how Isaac dug wells that were once filled by the Philistines, symbolizing the need to revisit and renew the foundations laid by spiritual forebears. The sermon concluded with a reflection on John 4, where Jesus speaks of living water to the Samaritan woman, encouraging listeners to seek a continuous flow of God's spirit in their lives. Vona urged the congregation to be a source of refreshment to others, embodying the living water that Jesus offers. He closed with a prayer for unity, growth, and an increased flow of God's love and spirit in the lives of the listeners.

Today's book is: The Translator's Daughter: A Memoir (Mad Creek Books, 2024), by Grace Loh Prasad, which is a unique immigration story about the loneliness of living in a diaspora, the search for belonging, and the meaning of home. Born in Taiwan, Grace Loh Prasad was two years old when the threat of political persecution under Chiang Kai-shek's dictatorship drove her family to the United States, setting her up to become an “accidental immigrant.” The family did not know when they would be able to go home again. This exile lasted long enough for Prasad to forget her native Taiwanese language and grow up American. Having multilingual parents—including a father who worked as a translator—meant she never had to develop the fluency to navigate Taiwan on visits. But when her parents moved back to Taiwan permanently when she was in college and her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, she recognized the urgency of forging a stronger connection with her birthplace before it was too late. As she recounts her journey to reclaim her heritage in The Translator's Daughter, Prasad unfurls themes of memory, dislocation, and loss in all their rich complexity. Our guest is: Grace Loh Prasad, a finalist for the Louise Meriwether First Book prize. Grace writes frequently on the topics of diaspora and belonging. You can find her work in many publications including The New York Times, Longreads, Catapult, Jellyfish Review, Blood Orange Review, KHÔRA, and Cha: An Asian Literary Journal. Grace received her MFA in Creative Writing from Mills College, and has attended workshops at Tin House and VONA, and residencies at Hedgebrook and Ragdale. She is a member of The Writers Grotto and Seventeen Syllables, an Asian American Pacific Islander writers collective. She is the author of The Translator's Daughter: A Memoir. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, the producer of the Academic Life podcast. She holds a PhD in history, which she uses to explore what stories we tell and what happens to those we never tell. Listeners may also enjoy these Academic Life episodes: The Things We Didn't Know Secret Harvests Where is home? The Names of All the Flowers Who gets believed?

But when her parents moved back to Taiwan permanently when she was in college and her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, she recognized the urgency of forging a stronger connection with her birthplace before it was too late.

Today's book is: The Translator's Daughter: A Memoir (Mad Creek Books, 2024), by Grace Loh Prasad, which is a unique immigration story about the loneliness of living in a diaspora, the search for belonging, and the meaning of home. Born in Taiwan, Grace Loh Prasad was two years old when the threat of political persecution under Chiang Kai-shek's dictatorship drove her family to the United States, setting her up to become an “accidental immigrant.” The family did not know when they would be able to go home again. This exile lasted long enough for Prasad to forget her native Taiwanese language and grow up American. Having multilingual parents—including a father who worked as a translator—meant she never had to develop the fluency to navigate Taiwan on visits. But when her parents moved back to Taiwan permanently when she was in college and her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, she recognized the urgency of forging a stronger connection with her birthplace before it was too late.

Vona Gábor a 2018-as választási vereség óta politikai pihenőidejét töltötte, de értelmiségiként rendszeresen kommentálta a közélet eseményeit, YouTube-csatornáján és közösségében pedig a reformkor ideáit tette meg követendő példaként. Mennyit változott Vona? Sikerülhet-e az új projekttel, a Második Reformkorral, ami a Jobbik-recepttel nem? Mit jelent az általa áhított kultúraváltás, és van-e értelme a kiábrándult fideszesek mítoszának?Felhasznált forrás: Arcanum adatbázis (adt.arcanum.hu)Nézd, olvasd, hallgasd - minden péntek reggel: https://csapat.partizanmedia.hu/forms/pentekreggelTámogasd te is a Partizán munkáját!https://csapat.partizanmedia.hu/fundraising/partizan/Iratkozz fel a Partizán hírlevelére:https://csapat.partizanmedia.hu/forms/partizan-feliratkozasTovábbi támogatási lehetőségekről bővebben: https://www.partizanmedia.hu/tamogatasYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PartizanmediaFacebook: https://facebook.com/partizanpolitika/ Facebook Társalgó csoport: https://www.facebook.com/groups/partizantarsalgo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/partizanpolitika/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@partizan_mediaPartizán saját gyártású podcastok: https://rss.com/podcasts/partizanpodcast/

A Vétó 15. adásában az ellenzéki térfél kis- és közepes politikai erőivel foglalkozunk, azokkal, akik nem kérnek se Orbánból, se Gyurcsányból. A Mi Hazánk és a Kétfarkú Kutyapárt mögött látszik a legnagyobb lendület, de a Jobbik széthullását követően több új szereplő is bejelentkezett a kiábrándult szavazók megszólításáért folyó versenybe. Kérdés, vajon melyik szervezet iránt van valódi kereslet, és mi történik azokkal, akik nem ugorják meg az Európai Parlamenti választáson a legalább egy mandátumos határt 2024-ben?

Amit most csinál Donáth Anna, azt 2019 májusában kellett volna megtennie, mondja Ruff Bálint. Ehhez képest két választáson is összefogott Gyurcsánnyal. A Momentum mellett az Elemzőben terítéken volt még Vona pártépítése, hogy hogyan lett az LMP a DK KDNP-je, és hogy a Fidesznek mire jó a fóliázás.

This week I speak to Vona Aghoghovbia-Ezichi, Managing Director, Head of Finance Europe & APAC at Nuveen, an Asset Management firm. Vona is a force, taking control of her own future with her three-yearly life check-ins, but finding out that when it comes to becoming a mum, there are some things you can't control. Vona tells me that when she saw someone who looked like her doing what she wanted to do it gave her the confidence that she needed to recognise her own value and to go for it. I am so happy to be able to share this story of a truly phenomenal miracle working mum.

Side Notes from the Archivist is a preservation of Black culture viewed through a feminist lens. The Archivist leads readers through poems that epitomize youthful renditions of a Black girl coming of age in Philadelphia's pre-funk '80s; episodic adventures of “the Black Girl” whose life is depicted through the white gaze; and selections of verse evincing affection for self and testimony to the magnificence within Black femme culture at-large. In her uniquely embracing and experimental style, Anastacia-Reneé documents and celebrates diverse subjects, from Solid Gold to halal hotdogs; as homages and reflections on iconic images, from Marsha P.

Today's podcast episode surrounds the concept of imagining and one particular genre: science fiction. Although the conversation focuses on one specific genre, the subject elicits questions about what writing within a particular genre does for your work. Which genres do you write in and what ways do they help you imagine? Does writing in a particular genre open doors to reimagine reality?   Questions 1. How do you learn craft between workshops, writing classes/seminars, reading and practice? What do you think the right balance when it comes to learning craft? Do you ever feel out of balance and why? 2. The question Octavia Butler was often asked: What good is science fiction to Black people?”    Show Notes Octavia Butler, Positive Obsession essay can be found here: https://www.loa.org/news-and-views/1779-octavia-e-butler-positive-obsession  Samuel R Delaney, The Motion of Light and Water, https://www.eileenmcginnis.com/blog/2018/10/19/turn-and-face-the-strange-samuel-delany-queering-science-fiction-queering-fatherhood Check out the wonderful world of Helen Oyeyemi here: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/80808.Helen_Oyeyemi  Robert Jordan, Wheel of Time, https://www.goodreads.com/series/41526-the-wheel-of-time  Crystal Wilkinson again! - https://www.crystalewilkinson.net/ Hurston-Wright Foundation (https://www.hurstonwright.org/) has some upcoming workshops for emerging Black writers definitely worth checking out  Lighthouse Writers Workshop - https://www.lighthousewriters.org/  Neil Gaiman, American Gods, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/30165203-american-gods  Deep Reading taught by Michael Duszat, The Reader Berlin, https://www.thereaderberlin.com/weekend-workshop/the-deep-reading-workshop-with-michael-duszat/ - sign up for this class whenever it is on next!

Ellen O'Hara was a young immigrant from Ireland at the end of the nineteenth century who, with courage and resilience, made a life for herself in New York while financially supporting those at home. Hereafter: The Telling Life of Ellen O'Hara (NYU Press, 2022) is her story, told by Vona Groarke, her descendant, in a beautiful blend of poetry, prose, and history. In July 1882, Ellen O'Hara stepped off a ship from the West of Ireland to begin a new life in New York. What she encountered was a world of casual racial prejudice that characterized her as ignorant, dirty, and feckless, the butt of many jokes. From the slim range of jobs available to her she, like, many of her kind, found a position as a domestic servant, working long hours and living in to save on rent and keep. After an unfortunate marriage, Ellen determined to win financial security on her own, and eventually opened a boarding house where her two children were able to rejoin her. Vona Groarke builds this story from historical fact, drawing from various archives for evidence of Ellen. However, she also considers why lives such as Ellen's seem to leave such a light trace in such records and fills in the gaps with memory and empathetic projection. Ellen--scrappy, skeptical, and straight-talking--is the heroine of Hereafter, whose resilience animates the story and whose voice shines through with vivid clarity. Hereafter is both a compelling account of an incredible figure and a reflection on how one woman's story can speak for more than one life.

From the slim range of jobs available to her she, like, many of her kind, found a position as a domestic servant, working long hours and living in to save on rent and keep. After an unfortunate marriage, Ellen determined to win financial security on her own, and eventually opened a boarding house where her two children were able to rejoin her. Vona Groarke builds this story from historical fact, drawing from various archives for evidence of Ellen. However, she also considers why lives such as Ellen's seem to leave such a light trace in such records and fills in the gaps with memory and empathetic projection. Ellen--scrappy, skeptical, and straight-talking--is the heroine of Hereafter, whose resilience animates the story and whose voice shines through with vivid clarity. Hereafter is both a compelling account of an incredible figure and a reflection on how one woman's story can speak for more than one life.

Join Maya Marshall and special guests for a celebration of her new book All the Blood Involved in Love. All the Blood Involved in Love is an urgent and evocative collection—featuring complex and compelling poems about the choices we make surrounding home, freedom, healing, partnership, and family. In a moment of critical struggle for reproductive justice, Maya Marshall's haunting debut meditates on womanhood—with and without motherhood. Traversing familial mythography with an unflinching seriousness, Marshall moves deftly between contemporary politics, the stakes of race and interracial partnership, and the monetary, mental, and physical costs of adopting or birthing a Black child.
