Katie’s true reason for dressing up as a horse all those years ago is finally revealed. An old friend of the pod returns for his revenge. A heart-wrenching story involving a 10-year-old rape victim seeking an abortion turns out to be fake, but then turns out to be real anyway. Jesse discusses a viral internet rumor involving trans kids in Leon County, Florida schools and explains how indignant he is he had to do one of his least favorite things — “work” — in order to debunk it.

Als Jugo ist man es gewohnt, für latent kriminell gehalten zu werden. Böser Blick, Messer in der Tasche, zack ist das Schutzgeld erpresst. Doch abseits rassistischer Klischee hat der Balkan natürlich auch wirklich ein Problem mit organisierter Kriminalität. Und zwar ein gewaltiges.
In dieser Episode schauen wir uns speziell zwei Länder an: Serbien und Montenegro. Denn viele wissen zwar, dass es hier so etwas wie eine eigene Mafia gibt, aber das war es auch schon. Dass tatsächlich einer der größten Kokain-Händler Europas aus Montenegro stammt und derzeit unter recht komfortablen Bedingungen mal wieder einen Prozess in Belgrad erwartet, dürfte hingen im Westen den Wenigsten bekannt sein. Ebenso die Hintergründe eines Streits zwischen zwei Klans aus einer montenegrinischen Kleinstadt, der in Europa schon gut 50 Menschenleben gefordert hat. Und natürlich hat das ganze auch mal wieder ganz viel mit Politik zu tun.
In dieser Folge also werfen Danijel und Krsto einen Blick auf die Strukturen, die Hintermänner und ihre Kontakte in höchste Regierungskreise. Unterstützt werden sie dabei von Jelena Radivojević, Reporterin des Investigativportal KRIK aus Belgrad.
Nebenbei erfahrt ihr, warum die beiden Moderatoren mal wieder klandestin in einem Hotelzimmer hocken, welchen Verkaufswert Koks in Brüssel hat und warum wir uns schweren Herzens von einem liebgewonnenen Balkan-Despoten verabschieden müssen. -
Das ist der zweite Teil meines Gesprächs mit Tobi von AlpineFex. Im ersten Teil (ulligunde.com/episode52) haben wir über seine achtwöchige Auszeit in den Westalpen gesprochen und darüber, wie es war, so ganz ohne Kamera unterwegs zu sein, obwohl er doch Deutschlands größten Bergsportkanal auf YouTube betreibt. In der jetzigen Folge sprechen wir darüber, was er in diesen Wochen über sich gelernt hat, welche Konsequenzen er daraus zieht und wie er künftig leben wird. Wird, nicht will - denn Tobi hat - konsequent wie er nun mal ist - Nägel mit Köpfen gemacht und einen Schlussstrich gezogen.

Wer nicht hetero ist, hat es schwer auf dem Balkan. Psychische und physische Übergriffe sind an der Tagesordnung, doch die Polizei schaut oft weg und solidarisiert sich mit den Tätern. Schwule und Lesben verlassen die Region, weil sie es nicht mehr aushalten, so auch Ivan. Mit ihm haben wir über die Lebensrealität von Schwulen in der serbischen Peripherie gesprochen.
Außerdem: Wie hat sich der CSD in Belgrad entwickelt? Welche Gruppen verhindern die Einführung der Ehe für alle in Kroatien und warum wurde sie in Slowenien wieder abgeschafft.
Und ganz nebenbei geht es auch um Trump. -
Bereits im Juni hat Borussia Dortmund die Verpflichtung von Thomas Meunier von Paris St. Germain bekanntgegeben.
