He also tried stand-up comedy. Not everything worked. That's kind of the point.This episode is about what it takes to bet on yourself — repeatedly, and often irrationally — and what separates people who move through fear from those who get stuck in it.

Beletrina v živoBeletrina v živo: Martin Kušej: Za mano belinaMednarodno priznani in uspešni režiser in gledališki direktor Martin Kušej v avtobiografsko-esejistični knjigi Za mano belina, ki jo je objavil pri dunajski založbi leta 2022, odstira pogled v svoje ustvarjanje in se ukvarja z »življenjem v trenutku«, ki ni nikjer tako intenzivno kot na odru. Njegova izrazito politična knjiga govori o umetnosti osvobajanja od preteklosti, da lahko naredimo naslednji korak v prihodnost, o politikah identitete, diktaturi mnenj in krčenju svobode. Kušej opisuje številne svoje uprizoritve na evropskih gledaliških in opernih odrih, predvsem pa razkriva svoj zelo osebni pristop k doseganju »trenutka resnice«, trenu...

Mama Gang51. Martin Čajko: Ak chceme byť asertívni, začnime od našich hodnôtDo dnešného dielu sme si pozvali odborníka na asertivitu, zakladateľa projektu Otvorená hra a dvojnásobného otca Martina Čajka. Chceli sme sa s ním baviť o tom ako vystupovať asertívne a to najmä v situáciách, kde bránime hranice nás a našich detí. Inšpirovala nás príhoda, kde Adel upozornila pani predavačku, aby sa nedotýkala jej čerstvo zobudenej dcéry v kočíku, čo očividne pani nahnevalo. Chladnými tento príbeh nenechal ani vás, naše publikum, a zasypali ste nás množstvom reakcií.
