Jerry Garcia on the Acid Tests

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.

#235 - Ming 25: Some Light Treason

Richard Hatch is overseas on a top-secret mission… to win over Jill, the most elusive, electrifying student in his 7th-grade class. He isn’t suave or sophisticated, so he’s gonna need help from The Beatles, the Russians, and even the CIA to pull it off.

Thank you, Richard Hatch aka Danger 9b, for sharing your story with us!

Rick is back in the US and is putting the finishing touches on a kid-friendly memoir about his travels abroad.

Season 13 – Episode 25

Danger 9b

Nicole, 63 ans, est une des rares femmes pêcheuse de crevettes à Dunkerque. Ancienne ouvrière du textile et mère de six enfants, elle trouve dans cette pratique réservée aux hommes une échappatoire, un moment de paix. L'eau soigne son corps abîmé par le travail en usine, les maternités et le travail domestique. Nicole est aussi championne du monde de décorticage de crevettes ! Elle raconte qu'elle a pu gagner 10 fois ce concours grâce au travail en usine, qui lui a fait exercer sa rapidité et sa dextérité. Les médias soudain parlent d'elle. Nicole se voit reconnue hors du cercle domestique. Une récompense ? Une revanche ? Un plaisir ?
Au-delà de l'image folklorique de la pêche à la crevette, cet épisode d'Un podcast à soi / Une vie à soi interroge le rapport au temps, au travail domestique, à la reconnaissance. Et donne à entendre des résistances invisibles.

Iron Curtain call: Mikhail Gorbachev

Century City

A circle forms around two lads
Circle of boys 
Circle of boys
There's gonna be a fight in the playground
Sleeves rolled up
Socks pulled down
Blood flows from one kids nose
But the older boys want more
They want strips torn from uniforms
It's a test of strength
Two boys rolling around in the dust
In the dust...
Embrace

And when a boy grows up he's still the same
He's still the same
But he's a man
And a man is physical
And a man has to put his physical
Body to the test
Body to the test
Against another man
Do you measure up?
Or do ya still have work to do?
Still have work to do...
Embrace

It's hard to trust somebody
It's hard to believe in love
How do you measure love?
But you can trust your body
Push / rip / taste / touch / work your body
And if you work that body
Don't need to trust nobody
Pull the trigger
Run the race
Beat the man
Chase the clock
Aware to God
That's His that was
Throw the spear
Take the glory
Embrace

A man can meet another man
In a bar
On the sportsfield
At his place of work
Or in his own apartment
Or on the internet right now

So Turn / Face / Connect
Embrace

You gotta prove yourself
Understand yourself
Show your strength
Embrace

Now Flex
Look your best
Eye to eye
Embrace

Turn / Face
Man & Woman
Embrace

Embrace, come on 
Embrace, come on
Embrace

The body is real

You gotta love one another
