Weight of the World looks at America’s rising authoritarian tide through the eyes of traditional friends and allies in Europe. Many of our guests have lived under authoritarian regimes themselves or have first-hand experience combating extremism. All of them have a personal understanding of how fragile democracy can be. They offer advice for concerned citizens everywhere on how to beat back the threats to free, open societies and stay united during increasingly dark times.

WOWcast: Weight-lifting: A special WOW live event

Weight of the World began with the idea of creating community. Not just through podcasts, but also with public events that invite people to spend time together hashing out potential solutions to fractious times – or simply reaching beyond their usual bubbles to make new connections. In a special bonus episode, WOW partners with the Vaclav Havel Library and New York University Prague to bring you a lively public discussion on what it takes, from both society and us as individuals, to build healthy civic engagement. At a moment when many citizens feel less power to affect meaningful change through elections, charity, and activism, this wide-ranging conversation considers what would it take to rebuild societies that uphold humanitarian values and encourage personal agency in the name of collective good.

episode WOWcast: Tomáš Sedláček cover

WOWcast: Tomáš Sedláček

Tomáš Sedláček is a man on a mission. An economist, philosopher, presidential advisor, and author, he’s now also the director of the Václav Havel Presidential Library in Prague, and he’s blazing a trail to spread the philosophy of the Czech playwright/president to a world hungry for a deeper, more meaningful  narrative. Havel’s writings are more relevant than ever today, says Tomáš, and the framework for so many of the answers to our most pressing questions are there for the picking. In his trademark style, Tomáš takes us on a tour of philosophy, pop culture, religion, and more, that leads us back to Havel and why a kind of “Havelian democracy” may be the best antidote to the creeping authoritarianism that is eating away at our western societies on so many fronts.

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.
