Hedy bezocht het partijcongres van Groen Links/ PvdA en mocht daar Aboutaleb toespreken. Over de vrolijke kanten van het congres hoorde je de afgelopen week weinig. De meeste aandacht ging uit naar prominenten die de partij verlaten. Iets wat Hedy in het verleden ook wel eens overwogen heeft, maar toch nooit deed. Ze legt uit waarom. Ander nieuws uit de partijgelederen is dat de succesvolle wethouder uit Amsterdam, Marjolein Moorman de stedelijke politiek gaat verruilen voor de landelijke. Iemand met hoop en idealen. Jammer voor de stad , maar goed voor het land. Hedy werd afgelopen week down van de NAVO top omdat het alleen maar over oorlog ging en nooit over vrede. Daarnaast verbaasde ze zich over de kontlikkerij van Rutte. Hadassah vond het vreemd dat mensen deden alsof er een feestje was georganiseerd in plaats van een internationale vergadering over oorlogsdreiging. Ze vond uitstekend tegengif in Leeuwarden, waar 5000 Friezen een moderne kathedraal hebben gebouwd voor festival Arcadia. In Vroeger en Nu gaat het over marktonderzoek en over verpakkingen. En omdat Hedy binnenkort optreedt tijdens het poëziefestival in Zutphen, hebben ze het over de dichtregels die in hun brein zijn blijven hangen. Tot slot het Franse zusje van Hedy. Volgende week gaan ze haar opzoeken en is er geen podcast.. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this day in Tudor history, 25th June 1601, Peregrine Bertie, 13th Baron Willoughby, died of fever at Berwick-upon-Tweed. Born in exile during the reign of Mary I, Bertie was the son of Katherine Willoughby, Duchess of Suffolk and widow of Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. A soldier, a diplomat, and a loyal servant to Elizabeth I, Bertie led troops in the Netherlands, fought at the Battle of Zutphen, and helped defend England during the time of the Spanish Armada. In this podcast, I look at the life and legacy of this often-overlooked Tudor figure, from his birth abroad to his final days at the Anglo-Scottish border. #TudorHistory #PeregrineBertie #AnneBoleynFiles #TudorSoldier #ElizabethanEra #OnThisDay #HistoryVideo #ClaireRidgway

On the Wide World segment hosted by Saturday Morning Show's Glenn van Zutphen get ready to rethink what luxury travel means in 2025. Dr. Guy Llewellyn, EHL Singapore on how luxury travel is undergoing a profound transformation. In this episode, Dr. Llewellyn explores the rise of "silent luxury"—the newest contradiction in the world of upscale escape. For more established travelers, gone are the days of blingy resorts and jet-set Instagram check-ins. Today’s more sophisticated traveler seeks slow moments, secret spots, and soul-stirring experiences that don’t need a selfie filter. We consider how luxury is being redefined by restraint, authenticity, and intention: think private temple tours instead of velvet ropes, hidden food festivals over Michelin white tablecloths, and a detox from social media instead of posting every sunset. Even sustainability is having its glam moment. Dr. Llewellyn’s gives us a business class seat in the next era of high-end, low-noise adventures as we explore why the quietest journeys may now speak the loudest.
