[trigger warning: This episode explores themes of abortion, miscarriage and terrorism]

This month URSA brings you news on the abortion protections and legilaslation within the EU, reports on how countries are currently coping with the heatwave sweeping the continent, and climate law updates from The European Parliament.

You will also be hearing a piece by Berlin-based journalist and producer, Summer Banks, about TAKDIR. DIE ANERKENNUNG, a work of art remembering those murdered by the NSU.

We share an excerpt of an episode of ANTHEMS, a Broccoli Productions podcast featuring original manifestos, speeches, stories and poems - In celebration of Pride, Anthems features themed pieces from their LGBTQIA+ contributors and allies. The theme? Water.

Then, we have Jane Silver of Exberliner, our food correspondent, who joins us to chat about two great Indian restaurants in Berlin, a new lamb intestine sandwich, where to beat the summer heat with the city’s best ice cream.

Jonny Tiernan, our culture correspondent, from Lola Magazine shares some of the events coming this summer, including the Lakeside Film Festival, Peaches, The Wuthering gathering and more.

To close we have a spoken word piece by Rhea Ramjohn, a Trinbagonian writer, podcaster & producer. Rhea is the co-founder of ​​Black Brown Berlin and the host of Tanti Table and Hormonal.

Our theme music is from Lucas Carey, with audio from Epidemic Sound. Cover art by Sian Amber Fletcher.

This episode is brought to you by Bear Radio. Special thanks to our featured producers Summer Banks, and Samra Mayanja with Broccoli Productions, Hana Walker-Brown and Bea Duncan. Thanks also to our Food & Culture correspondents, Jane Silver of Exberliner and Jonny Tiernan of LOLA.
