The Belarus solidarity algorithm

A year into the protest movement in Belarus, what are things like on the ground? This week we talk to the poet Hanna Komar about her own experience in detention, and the extraordinary "algorithm" of solidarity among women in the movement. We're also talking about Russian gas, Norwegian oil, and the magnificence of Emma Raducanu.
You can read Hanna's article, 'Sisterhood behind bars', here.
This week's Isolation Inspiration: Lykke Li and Robyn on Song Exploder; The Book of Reykjavik.

Description

Each week we trawl the continent of Europe for the most interesting stories to cover and the most fascinating people to interview. This semi-serious, semi-silly, Brexit-free show, from a reporter in Paris and an opera singer in Amsterdam, will make you seem clever to friends and make you feel like you've got two NEW friends in Katy and Dominic. You probably didn't realise you needed a European podcast in your life, but this will fill the gap that you didn't even know was there.

This podcast fills a gaping gap in the media landscape: an entertaining podcast which covers intersting, entertaining, and funny stories from across Europe. It's not quite a European "this american life", but it's slowly getting there. So grateful to finally have an interesting podcast with a European perspective that's also fun to listen to!

Delightfully informative

I love how this podcast keeps me informed on all of Europe. The segments are all interesting and the interviews spot on. In fact I love this show so much I attacked a random, only slightly similar looking, Dutch guy on a German rest stop close to Munich and asked if he was Dominic. My two children were horrified, they’re 3 and 4 and might never acknowledge that I’m their mother ever again. I have no regrets.
