Budapest is a podcast about the crisis of liberal democracy. Why it happens. How we fight back.

Trailer

Democracy is under siege — not just in Hungary, but across the world.
Budapest is where the cracks show first, and where people fight back.
Every other week, Ivan Scalfarotto sits down with activists, dissidents, scholars, and political leaders to understand why democracies slide into authoritarianism — and how they can be defended.
With reason, not rage.
