Domination was through creation of an informal empire where control of finance, of the basic food chain, of energy—above all of oil, would be the basis for what would become the greatest concentration of power in history, an American Sole Superpower after the collapse of the Soviet Union.Born in Minnesota, William Engdahl grew up in Texas.

Today I’m talking to Roberto, who came to Slovakia from the Dominican Republic 13 years ago and after he survived his first Slovak winter, he decided to stay. He has since become a slovak citizen, made many good friends here, but the main reason why he is staying is his son. Roberto is also a fisherman, a fluent Slovak speaker and he works for an international company.
Enjoy and as always, thanks a lot for listening. -
Hello and welcome to MySlovakExperience podcast. In this chilling December, I’m bringing you Ramy, an IT manager from Egypt who has lived in Slovakia for more than 14 years now. No matter where he’s from, he just cannot imagine living anywhere else than Slovakia.
I recorded our conversation at the beginning of October, it took a while to bring it to light and I’m glad today you can enjoy it.
Thanks a lot for following and being part of MySlovakExperience, one year of great conversations, thanks to you listeners and thanks to the guests who came to the show. 2020 will bring some new things to the show, wait4it.

Hello everybody,
this is MySlovakExperience podcast and today I’m finally leaving Bratislava. My guest Vicky Sheppard is an editor, writer and science teacher originally from Britain has lived in Piestany for 11 years now.
Vicky came to Slovakia with her husband and they have been living in Piestany for more than a decade despite the fact that they only came for two years.
She’s about to go back to the UK this summer so this interview is a bit of a farewell to Slovakia. What does it mean for a foreigner to live in a small Slovak town like Piestany, and what are her opinions and thoughts before her departure.
I hope you will enjoy our conversation as much as I did.
So please welcome, Vicky Sheppard. -
Hear about travel to Slovakia as the Amateur Traveler talks to Julie Callahan from TheWorldInBetween.com. When Julie's family moved to Bratislava, Slovakia 3 years ago they didn't have a single friend who knew where this central European country was located.
