    K67: The King of Kiosks

    K67: The King of Kiosks

    The K67 Kiosk is a symbol of Yugoslavia. Once ubiquitous in its thousands, only a few hundred units remain around the former country, many in various state of disrepair, and a handful of others around the world. But particularly over the past decade, the Kiosk has been experiencing a revival of sorts. It nowadays inspires educators, artists, designers, and others in their work. 
    With Filip Filković and Dijana Handanović.

Amazing storytelling

As someone who knew very little about Yugoslavia or the Yugoslav Wars, this podcast has been a great eye opener into the lived experiences of those impacted, from stories about popular music in Yugoslavia, to the diverse experiences of Yugoslav people living in diaspora communities today. You can tell the podcast host puts time into researching each episode and engaging with each guest. I would definitely recommend this podcast to anyone curious about the history or contemporary legacy of Yugoslavia, whether they have a personal connection to that place or not.

This is special

Every once in a while, you discover a real gem. Remembering Yugoslavia is just that. The topics, the guests, and the depth are amazing. I don’t know how Peter does, but he does and I am eternally grateful that he does. Do yourself a favor and subscribe to this podcast. Then share it with your friends.
