Episode 40: Rearmament: Growth Engine or Costly Illusion

final part of a mini-series about rearmament Factories that used to manufacture trains or steel are now being used by the arms industry. Companies such as Rheinmetall, Thales and Leonardo are offering workers new jobs. Consulting firms promise an economic boost thanks to investments in rearmament. However, economist Nan Tian of SIPRI is sceptical. From an economic perspective, he argues against these investments. They would be better spent on infrastructure, healthcare or education. Matteo Bracciali, vice-president of ACLI (the Christian Association of Italian Workers), also criticises the EU's approach to spending. He suggests a unified European army and much less money for military purposes. According to Bracciali and his organisation, peace is created by establishing institutions of peace. With the Caravan of Peace, a mobile information station, he toured Italy to promote peaceful thinking.

Episode 39: “the most momentous and dangerous of times”

part 2 of a mini-series about rearmament In a 2025 press conference, EU president Ursula von der Leyen claimed that we are living in an era of rearmament. Consequently, Europe must invest more in defence and security. An EU-wide strategy would be highly effective, according to Annegret Bendiek, a political scientist at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs. However, the EU's strength is also its weakness: its 27 members do not always agree on everything. Meanwhile, questions are being asked about whether powering the arms industry brings security and peace. Scientists such as Nan Tian of SIPRI advocate a different approach.

Episode 37: quality of hours

part 3 of a mini-series about working time models Reducing working hours is a phenomenon that started in the 20th century. The third and final episode of this mini-series focuses on science. At the University of Münster, Germany, Julia Backmann and her team research the impact of the four-day-work week. She has conducted an experiment with dozens of organizations that have reduced working hours. Her results are in favor of this model and in line with studies all around the world. Reducing working hours may be a challenge at first, but not only workers but also employers can benefit from it. ~~~~~~~~~~ ABOUT THE PODCAST ~~~~~~~~~~ We Work Europe is a podcast by EZA (European Centre For Workers’ Questions) Script and production by Escucha – Audio Identity Editorial team: Ralph Würschinger, Sigrid Schraml, Lukas Fleischmann, Katrin Brueggen Narration by Rebecca Sharp Cover Art by Sofia Wunderling Intro music by Simon Muthers ~~~~~~~~~~~ ABOUT EZA ~~~~~~~~~~~ Official Website of EZA: https://www.eza.org/en/ [https://www.eza.org/en/] EZA magazine: https://www.eza.org/en/eza-magazine [https://www.eza.org/en/eza-magazine] E-Mail: eza [at] eza.org

Episode 36: Four days a week

part 2 of a mini-series about working time models For Giorgos Valasis a regular work week consists of 6 days. After his shift as a bus driver in Athens he finds himself constantly exhausted. He’s frightened by the fact that his government passed a law to enable 13 hours per day. While Giorgios and a lot of his working colleges take this fight into the streets of Athens to prevent the liberalisation of working hours, a German CEO changed his company to four-day-working-week. In this second episode, Carsten Graf tells his story of how he has changed the structure of his business and what has changed since then. ~~~~~~~~~~ ABOUT THE PODCAST ~~~~~~~~~~ We Work Europe is a podcast by EZA (European Centre For Workers’ Questions) Script and production by Escucha – Audio Identity Editorial team: Ralph Würschinger, Sigrid Schraml, Lukas Fleischmann, Katrin Brueggen Narration by Rebecca Sharp Cover Art by Sofia Wunderling Intro music by Simon Muthers ~~~~~~~~~~~ ABOUT EZA ~~~~~~~~~~~ Official Website of EZA: https://www.eza.org/en/ [https://www.eza.org/en/] EZA magazine: https://www.eza.org/en/eza-magazine [https://www.eza.org/en/eza-magazine] E-Mail: eza [at] eza.org

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
