Festival Biblico 2025 | ScintilleNELLE MANI DEL POETA con ANDREA PONSODI COSA PARLIAMO: Ogni giorno viviamo tra la voce delle parole e la potenza dei silenzi … e cerchiamo nella poesia una nuova forma di grazia. Andrea Ponso ci permette di dedicare una scintilla di tempo al testo poetico e, a partire da questo, ad un nuovo e più originale sguardo sul mondo. Le nuove generazioni, secondo lui, sono corpi che vibrano per chiedere ascolto. E noi ci prepariamo a vibrare con loro.2025-06-3013 min

Armonie Urbane31 - Lucio Dalla: l’uomo che abitava le sue canzoniLucio Dalla è stato molte cose: musicista, poeta urbano, outsider, narratore visionario. In questa puntata lo raccontiamo da vicino, tra Bologna e il mare, silenzi e improvvisazioni, parole stortissime e verissime. Non una biografia, ma un ritratto vivo: l’uomo che non spiegava mai troppo, ma che nelle sue canzoni metteva tutto. Stranezze, amori, Dio, politica, jazz, solitudine, ironia. Lucio non si limitava a cantare: abitava ogni parola, ogni nota, ogni respiro.Musiche di sottofondo:Running It Down - Everet AlmondLicensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/S...2025-04-1715 min

I silenzi e gli scorci mozzafiato delle Alpi, le torri merlate di castelli contesi per secoli in faide sanguinarie, i boschi fitti in cui è ancora possibile avventurarsi e che, quando il sole scende dietro i picchi, si popolano di ombre e suoni misteriosi rappresentano un’ambientazione talmente congeniale al gioco di ruolo storico-ucronico, da sping...2025-04-1607 min

Un cammino per ricominciareCamminare insieme"Camminare insieme" è un'espressione spesso presa a metafora per i rapporti nei quali due o più persone condividono un determinato percorso. Camminano insieme due sposi, degli amici, dei colleghi, un operatore sociale e colui che viene aiutato, una maestra ed i suoi alunni. È un'esperienza molto comune. Ciò significa vivere le relazioni con coinvolgimento, partecipazione ed una sana empatia. Accettare di modulare i propri passi all'andatura di chi ci sta affianco, respirando le sue fatiche, i suo silenzi, le sue gioie. Offrire la propria vita dentro una liberante reciprocità, nella certezza che insieme si condivide una ricchezza che altrimenti non ci sarebbe. ...2022-03-2204 min

New York Magazine's Sex LivesHow Do You Know It's Real?Sometimes, love is a private feeling between two people. Other times, it's a declaration from the rooftops, a wedding announcement, or a public kiss. For the last three years Andrea Silenzi has been broadcasting her love life— and disasters— on her podcast Why Oh Why. She recorded her first date with her most recent boyfriend, as well as fights and their heartbreaking split. But she also blurs the truth— taking a cue from inspired-by-life novelists, she blends fact with fiction and invites actors to interact with real-life guests. Silenzi discusses honesty, deception, memoir, heartbreak, and why Donald Trump ruined her orgasm...2016-12-0222 min
Why Oh WhyListen to Your HeartWhen your host became newly single, she was shocked to discover that Tinder had made a drastic change as well. Like when silent films turned into talkies, though way less culturally significant, there is now a distinct sound when two people match on Tinder.

When Why Oh Why re-launched in the fall, we celebrated with our own special live show at the Kraine Theater in New York City.
