More guests join in on the conversation about identity and the secret to 'the animal question'.
In part 2 of our Hair of the Dog mini-series, we discuss 'the' question: what are your favourite 3 animals? The answers define you...listen in to find out how!
In part one of the Hair of the Dog mini-series, I sit with veteran nomad Ulrich from Germany and discuss the one rule he thinks overrules them all! The Golden Rule. But how does it measure up to scientific thought?
Be go controversial after Hunyar shares his thoughts on looking after a very old man here in Budapest. I pose tough questions. We hear about stamps.
Plus, two lovely women from Kazakhstan teach us a little of the mother tongue, describe your typical steppe, and discuss a new wave of politics in one of the biggest country's in the world.
And we don't even bring up Borat*
Kevin Martin (Electro) returns bringing with him three young German/Hungarian boys who want to discuss East and West politics, old people and whether they even want to live beyond a certain age, and mixing races and culture for the betterment of humankind.
Yeah, we go deep.
Local historian and gamer Robbie, a regular at the wonderful Kis Uzem bar in the 7th District of Budapest, steps in and poses very delicious questions, based on medieval history, about the way viruses shape, and perhaps manipulate, society. An example of history having power over current events.
For my first official podcast from Kis Uzem Budapest, I sit down with resident gamer/historian/all-round distinguished gentleman Robbie to talk about how viruses affected medieval societies, before being joined by a rowdy group of young men who discuss East and West politics in Europe, followed by discussions about mixing races, nature killing old folks and what their value is to society in Corona days and lastly ending with a pair of girls from Kazakhstan who teach us the ways of the most misunderstood country in the world.
Was a gas.
Two years after meeting Kevin at Sunflower Hostel in Berlin, I find him again in Budapest and we sit down at a bar in in the city to talk about his latest venture into Cryptocurrency and how it's related to Energy, human and environmental. We're joined by one random walk in, Gasper, and Irish Gypsy extraordinaire Dean (without his 6 dogs).
The last podcast from Budapest before some nasty little virus started to lock the world down...a long time coming, but this is a conversation between myself and Zubi, a musician from Nigeria but based in Budapest, fresh after playing around with some filming for a bit of music video fun. We chomp down on some very hot and spicy noodles with mysterious Georgian girl in the background, chat about the Open Mic scene, Zubi's approach to music and listen in to some of his tracks.
I sit down with Arnoud, a French film buff who works in the industry while living in Budapest, and we get all fanboyish about arguably one of the most underrated films of all time: Strange Days, directed by Kathryn Bigelow and written by James Cameron. We talk about why the film is So amazing, from the incredible cast to the far-ahead-of-its-time storyline. Could this be the beginning of future movie-related podcasts with the great man Arnoud? Stay tuned...
