  • From Brooklyn to Banja Luka
    Aug 15 2021
    Recently I had the opportunity to talk to Jonathan Groubert, a journalist trainer and podcasting expert, who is based in the Netherlands. Jonathan has a connection to Banja Luka. I found him some years ago through an amazing podcast (docucast), that Radio Netherlands had produced. With his Balkan connection, I wanted to find out about his views and feelings towards the region and more importantly Bosnia and Herzegovina. We also talked about the power of narrative journalism and how podcasting has developed.

  • Keeping Traditions Alive in Bosnia and Herzegovina - Nemanja Kneživić
    Jul 20 2021
    It seems that wherever I go in Bosnia and Herzegovina, traditional skills and cultural activities are slowly disappearing. From making instruments, to dancing and much more, the latest generations don't seem interested, and that could mean a massive impact on the heritage of not only this misunderstood country but also the wider region. I talk to Nemanja Knežević, to learn a little about the challenges he faces as the director of Banja Luka's biggest traditional dance ensemble. https://www.maslesa-folklor.org/# (Check out the website of Ensemble Veselin Mašlese. ) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrYoy9yza7k-h8jadcTV3Yw (Veselin Mašlese on YouTube.) https://www.instagram.com/anipmaslesa/ (Veselin Mašlese on Instagram). In the interview we mention Efie Derksen, a lady from the Netherlands who is also passionate about protecting local folklore and helping to promote its survival. https://livinginbosniaandherzegovina.com/podcasts/folklore-in-bosnia-and-herzegovina (Check out this Podcast to find out more.) https://myborrowedheritage.webnode.nl/ (And this extremely informative film.)
