    Diving for Yuko

    In coastal Japan, Yasuo Takamatsu has spent nearly 15 years diving for the remains of his wife, Yuko, who was swept away in the 2011 tsunami. With on-location recording of Yasuo on his 763rd dive, this Heart and Soul documentary explores his search as an act of devotion shaped by Japanese ideals of grief, memory, and the power of nature. A profound story of love and loss, we reveal how one man’s repeated dives became a ritual of remembrance in a land where disaster is part of life. Presenter: Jake Warren Producer:: Leo Danczak Editor:: Macalister Bexon A Message Heard production for BBC World Service

    Episode 6: Kareem and the Djinn

    Kareem emailed Otherworld months ago saying that he was sexually assaulted by a Djinn (a mysterious entity known in Islamic culture, known in western narratives as the Genie). Initially I thought this email was a joke... but by pure chance I met Kareem in person and realized that the story was very serious.  After becoming enthralled by the idea of the Djinn, Kareem welcomed the presence of the trickster spirit into his life. This opened the floodgates to supernatural experiences, including seeing fireless smoke appear in his home, an unexplained phenomenon in Egypt, and eventually accumulating into a physical attack. If you want to follow Kareem he can be found on instagram at @kareem Please subscribe and help spread the word about Otherworld by telling your friends and leaving us a good review!

Danny Goler built a career on physical risk: parkour, stunts, national television. Then he pointed a cheap laser through DMT-altered vision and found something he wasn't looking for. Symbols. Structure. A language he now calls the code of reality. Thousands of strangers around the world have since aimed the same beam and reported identical shapes, without ever comparing notes. AJ pushes past the viral story into the parts most conversations skip: what Goler actually felt, what changed inside him, and where the science ends and the mystery begins. Goler walks through a vision that reshaped his understanding of divinity and free will, along with the encounter that convinced him something real is on the other side.

    Secrets of the ant trade

    Once a quiet hobby for enthusiasts, ant-keeping has exploded into a global, multi-million-dollar business driven by social media and a rising wave of "ant-influencers". Demand for exotic species is fuelling a boom in online trading forums, and a new front in wildlife trafficking. We go to Kenya, where law enforcement has made global headlines arresting gangs as they try to smuggle thousands of prized mated queens out of the country.
