Each episode captures the grit and beauty of the region’s transformation, spotlighting both local artists and those carrying Eastern European roots. Brutalist poem explores reclaiming and reimagination of identity, inviting listeners to reflect on resilience, creativity, and the shared spirit of a place that pulses with both memory and possibility.
