Radiotopia Presents: Blind Guy Travels

Is Steve Pankey a cold-blooded killer who got away with murder for decades, or just a true-crime obsessive craving attention?

The True-Crime “Podcast Junkie” Turned Real-Life Murder Suspect

Bochra, Samlé et Renata ont quitté la Tunisie, la Côte d’Ivoire ou le Brésil pour émigrer en France. L’une est réfugiée politique, l’autre est issu d'un mariage mixte, la troisième est passionnée de langue française. Qu’est-ce qui a fait qu’ils ont un jour voulu quitter la France ? Quels rêves et quels espoirs entrevoyaient-ils au Canada et particulièrement au Québec ?

La route de l'Eldorado
Ils et elles ont quitté leur pays pour la France avant de choisir de s’installer au Canada. Ils et elles nous racontent la France, son accueil, ses opportunités, mais aussi ses blocages. Après leur expérience française ils ont finalement atterri à Montréal, Ottawa ou Vancouver, où Halima Elkhatabi les a rencontrés. Après la Route du Bled, Halima Elkhatabi tisse avec finesse onze récits qui racontent un double exil avec émotion et lucidité. Une coproduction ARTE Radio - Radio Canada qui permet de passionnants regards croisés sur la France et la Canada.

La route de l'Eldorado (1/5) : À la recherche de la terre promise

Host Meg Wolitzer presents three works about women who defy the status quo and might therefore be perceived as “dangerous.”  In Margaret Atwood’s “Unpopular Gals,” fairy-tale archetypes reclaim their power. The reader is Ann Harada.  A boisterous and brilliant student threatens to upend the order of her high school in Shanteka Sigers’ “A Way with Bea,” performed by Pascale Armand.  And a Victorian-era wife fights for her sanity in Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s classic “The Yellow Wallpaper,” performed by Carrie Coon.  The show also includes commentary by the Egyptian-American journalist and activist Mona Eltahawy.

MacBreak Weekly 832: A Fine Patina

Liebe Hörerinnen und Hörer,

gestartet sind Jochen Gebauer und Dom Schott mit der gleichen, heiligen Mission: Einen treuen Kult errichten und vier böse Gottheiten vom Thron stoßen, das erklärte Ziel von Cult of the Lamb. Die Wege aber, die die beiden dafür einschlugen, hätten unterschiedlicher nicht sein können. Und so kommt das Duo nach vielen Stunden wieder zusammen, um über das große Kot-Müsli-Fiasko, Opferrituale, unheilige Festessen, Hamsterräder und süchtig machende Arbeitsroutinen zu sprechen - und ihren Kultführungsstil miteinander zu vergleichen.

Viel Spaß!
Dom & Jochen

The Feynman Series (Part 5) - Think Like A Martian

This hour of Radiolab, a look behind the curtain of how memories are made...and forgotten. Remembering is an unstable and profoundly unreliable process--it’s easy come, easy go as we learn how true memories can be obliterated, and false ones added. And Oliver Sacks joins us to tell the story of an amnesiac whose love for his wife and music transcend his 7-second memory.

Memory and Forgetting

They called the fight “Bad Blood.” It was a marketing angle that wrote itself. In 2002, Oscar De La Hoya and Fernando Vargas met in a clash of Mexican-American U.S. Olympians from southern California, bringing the two biggest draws at 154 pounds together for a monster pay-per-view event that was powered by a bitter grudge.

In a special edition of the HBO Boxing Podcast, Eric Raskin speaks to De La Hoya, Vargas, and numerous insiders who were at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas that night and lets them tell the story of a modern classic, a showdown in which scores were settled and blood was spilled.

Blood Sport: The Story Of Oscar De La Hoya vs. Fernando Vargas

Manchester United are under the microscope again after a humbling defeat at West Ham. But why Solskjaer may not be the problem - is he the answer they need? Matt Dickinson and Bill Edgar join Natalie Sawyer and Gregor Robertson for more on this, what Chelsea need to solve their issues at home, and why it might take us 10 years to perfect VAR.

Angel wings. Pine trees. Nina Simone. These are the ingredients of a masterpiece.
