Episode 20. Time Travel. 20 Facts About Russia. Niagara Falls Cover

20. Time Travel. 20 Facts About Russia. Niagara Falls

What better way to wrap up Season 1 Episode 20 of Curious Sisters Podcast than by trying to cram in 20 interesting (hopefully) facts about Russia? Correct answer - no better way! Technically, this was a rhetorical question, which does not require an answer, but we digress... Tune in to learn a thing or two (or maybe 20) you didn't know about Russia.   The word of the episode - spasibo (Russian: спасибо) - thank you. Bonus word of the episode - pozhalusta (Russian: пожалуйста) - you are welcome. Please rate, review, share, and subscribe anywhere you listen. Spasibo for listening and please remember to share our podcast with your friends and family. The world needs to know all about it!  Email us at curioussisterspodcast@gmail.com with any comments, questions, or suggestions. Follow the show on social media: @curioussisterspodcast

Episode 19. Our Cats. Bone Music. Allergies. Cover

19. Our Cats. Bone Music. Allergies.

Bones, ribs, my grandma's skeleton...what do they have to do with music? This week Kat and Nastia discuss how an underground subculture of music lovers and bootleggers defied censorship and came up with a brilliant solution to distribute music that was banned from broadcast in the Soviet Union in the 1950s.  Amazingly, they built their own recording machines and used an extraordinary means of copying forbidden jazz, rock 'n' roll and banned Russian music to risk making their own records.  The word of the episode - otkrytka (Russian: Открытка) - postcard  Please rate, review, share, and subscribe anywhere you listen.

Episode 18. Iffy Spending. Kuz'ka's Mother. Pandas. Cover

18. Iffy Spending. Kuz'ka's Mother. Pandas.

Who is Kuz'ka (or Kuz'ma)? Who is his mother? What does "showing one Kuz'ka's Mother mean"? What do Kuz'ka and his mom have to do with the international relations of the Soviet era? Where are they today? In this week's episode, Kat and Nastia attempt to answer these and a few other ridiculous (funny? confusing?) questions. Please join us to learn the answers or else...we will just have to show you Kuz'ka's mother after all! The word of the episode - balalaika (Russian: балалайка) - balalaika (We know, the translation is clear as mud, you'll just have to tune in to learn more).

Episode 17. Useless Talent. Svyatki. Faberge Egg? Cover

17. Useless Talent. Svyatki. Faberge Egg?

Svyatki is a time when Russians all over the country would spend doing crazy things, forgetting about work, and celebrating. During this period, spirits and the devil would run wild, people would dress up, carol from door to door, hold mock funerals, play pranks on their neighbors, indulge in fortune-telling, and more. A few of the traditions have been preserved to this day! Join Kat and Nastia as they discuss this wild pagan festival and share their personal experience. THE WORD OF THE EPISODE - ROZHDESTVO (RUSSIAN: РОЖДЕСТВО) - CHRISTMAS, S ROZHDESTVOM (RUSSIAN: С РОЖДЕСТВОМ) - MERRY CHRISTMAS. Please rate, review, share, and subscribe anywhere you listen.
