much more today in the issue, about the important in simple language, available for all viewers. greetings, iryna koval is in the studio, and these are the results of the week on the espresso tv channel. news, summaries of the week, every saturday at 21:00 on espresso. every week, the saturday political club helps to understand the processes taking place in ukraine and the world. vitaly portnikov, host of espresso and invited experts, based on facts. give their assessment and forecast of the development of events, want to understand how our today will affect our tomorrow, watch the saturday political club, every saturday on espresso! vasyl winter's big broadcast, two hours of airtime, two hours of your time , two hours to learn about the war and what the world is like, two hours to keep up with economic and sports news.

two hours in the company of favorite presenters, presenters who have become like family to many, as well as distinguished guests of the studio, events of the day in two hours, vasyl zima's big broadcast, a project for intelligent and caring people, in the evening at espresso. friends, congratulations, in the next half hour we will traditionally talk about the most interesting events, that happened in ukrainian culture in the last week and we will certainly mention serhiy zhadan and khrystyna silova again , because you know, this scandal around their music video, it continues to drag on and the main thing i want to say is that i am extremely happy about it, i know among you, and probably among my acquaintances there, there are people who say that everyone has had enough of this nonsense , that they are tired of how we can constantly

quarrel, there is another category of people who say: "you don't have more important things to do than to discuss some bullshit around there another music video or some kind of zashkvar, a singer or a singer, some other wedding , you are discussing this lviv for the third week, you better discuss the front and the situation that is happening in the war, you know, and of course, what is happening on the front..." this is the most important thing that exists now in the information field, but i want to tell you that the fact that people are discussing there, for example, olya polyakov or anyone else, it does not mean that they are indifferent to the war, or that they do not care, that they forgot about the war, but there is one too interesting and popular, or rather the thesis that that's it, everyone has forgotten about the war, the war

is over for everyone, and i... i want to tell you that this is far from always true, because people from side to write a post or comment about some other scandal, and immediately charge someone there for some other collection, so this is the first reason that scandals are not as bad as some may think, and the second story is that this issue culture, which is extraordinary. important, because culture, this not only there is a high culture, when we discuss some other author's film that won an award there at some festival , and now it is shown in ukraine, by the way, i am talking about the steppe maryna vroda, for example, if the film won an award at the venice film festival, and here it was shown at the youth festival, which is now coming to an end, but culture is a very broad concept, and there is such a concept as "

culture, and from my point of view, for the formation of the self-identity of the whole people, or some part of a group of people, precisely this mass culture, it is much more important than culture , well, it is so serious, because by discussing some stars of show business, singers , actors, actresses, writers, writers, other artists, we begin to form our cultural background. field of our cultural interest, we would grow in this information field into our very, very diverse stars, because remember, if we talk especially about the period of the soviet union, and we begin to mention mass culture, about the twilight of mass culture, i it seems that mostly we can recall only russian stars, there were massively popular

russian actors, actresses, russian singers, writers, even russian writers, even if they were representatives of some other nationalities, they were representatives who came to moscow, the capital, to build a career and there partially or completely lost their identity, and if we talk about the ukrainian mass cinema of the soviet period there, then few people will simply name some huge list of their favorites tapes, quotes from which have spread among the people there, can be called so, for example, after two hares, but still these soviet films, which we unfortunately continue to quote. there are much more of them, the same with some pop stars there, yes, pop stars, as they said then, they are all mostly russians, and therefore the development of this mass culture is extremely important and strategically important, so you know, i will categorically disagree with

by those people who say that this is absolutely some nonsense that we don't need to discuss, so we will discuss this nonsense now, well first of all, i would like to say about the development of the tendency among our celebrity stars to explain some of their blunders, because there was also such an almost tradition, which, which, which, which was used, the method that was used, well, all of them suddenly, after their scandal about some there was an unworthy act or action, or a questionable act, the stars came out and said: first, with a word, and i will give the forces of defense, and i help the forces of the defense... i want to say right away that i am very i support the point of view that helping the armed forces, but with your donations, is not some kind of good deed that

should glorify you and show what a good person you are, it is absolutely normal now in the action of a normal citizen or citizens of ukraine to donate, it should be, that is , you don't need to brag about it, it's the norm. and, the second point is that, of course, it often looks like speculation, but i don't know if it will last for long, because all these points are already starting to get to people, but now i see such a new round, let's say, supplemented, supplemented, this so-and-so, supplemented method, when already the stars say that we give the fees that we earned for some dubious events to the defense forces, or buy something, like this, for example , did olya poryakova at her concerts, which took place in the palace of ukraine, loud ones, which were advertised simply from every iron, she declared that this fee, which she received for the scandalous

wedding in lviv, and she spent it, gave it to the defense forces and added those the money she earned from it and that's why it works such an amount, by the way, of course, it's very good that alya palyakova is doing this, on the other hand , i was happy, let's say, how she invited one of the most famous, well, well- known volunteer, let's say this, to the stage, and this volunteer for a very long time told how olya polyakova does not advertise her help to the defense forces and in general to people who have suffered from the war, how she does not speculate on this, and she told this for a very, very long time on the big... stage during olya polyakova's concert, olya polyakov afterwards posted this video to myself in instagram, how modest she is, well, here i know such a story is quite ironic, but then at the concert polyakova said that this is how she transfers this money, let's listen to her,

and she came and was simply honestly shocked by the number of negative posts and in general, people, i don't know what's in their head and what they're thinking about, but i want to say, they start calculating how olya earns money, where she takes it, what she spends it on, and i want to tell you just a little about our fund as an example, what is olya doing, just what is olya doing, now we have arrived and our medics of the 53rd brigade are asking very much for very large losses under the audiivka, they are asking very much for a vacation car, and olya has already allocated money for a vacation car and they are warming up for 5,000, the whole ska itself. also, mykhailo yasinskyi, this is a producer oli polyakovy also confirmed this, and he even roughly named the amount that polyakova made at this corporate party, at this vasili, he said this in an interview with slava dyomino on his

youtube channel, he said that two amounts appeared in the media , there are different journalists some sums were mentioned, it was 10,000 dollars and 20. said that it was somewhere in the middle, and said that there was a large part, yes, well, of course, there is a fee that should be divided between... the team, because olya polyakova is not capella herself performs, but polyakova herself earned from this, well, somewhere between 4 and 50 dollars - yasinsky said, and they all went to the needs of the armed forces, and also, the same similar situation happened with mykhailo tkach, a comedian, who even went to perform at the wedding of one of the participants in this terrible sex scandal, with drunken parties,

when the guys invited the girls to their apartment, there they were drunk until they lost consciousness, and then they filmed a video of a sexual nature, it was violence against the girls, of course, the trial is ongoing now, and one of them, oleg zakharov, came out on bail and played wedding, first of all, many people, i was surprised in particular, how someone even agreed to marry him, it is strange enough, but as for me, and secondly, yuriy tkach went to perform, and after on instagram with there were photos from this wedding with him the weaver, of course there was another riot, and the weaver resorted to explanations, he still admitted that it was terrible, that it was unacceptable, and he would spend all the money he earned from this wedding, all the fees, on the mavik and on... starling is there for something else, and by the way, he explained, this is also a fairly standard

explanation, now among our celebrities, that we did not know anything, we did not understand anything, yuriytkach said that i did not know at all what kind of oleg he was and i didn't know what kind of scandals these were, here you know, two moments which, well, what kind with the help of which you can explain what is happening in general, or our show business stars, well, i don't want to generalize, of course , most of the show business stars, celebrities who work there in the entertainment industry, one way or another, they really live in some kind of bubble , where pink ponies are running, unicorns are there, or some butterflies are flying, they live in this world and do not know anything at all, what is happening in our society, and there is a second point that they know everything very well, they just have to somehow earn money and very many moments, performances, some other things, they remain outside the boundaries of public discussion, quietly. you can do something, earn money, well, if some situation comes to the surface, then you can always

somehow explain it to your ignorance, say that i will contribute to the defense forces, and everyone will forget everything, because we are also used to the fact that the institution of reputation in our country is somehow very slowly formed, and usually all scandals, even the most terrible ones, end with the fact that people simply forget about it and those involved ... continue to work for themselves, as if nothing happened, because we have already forgotten other scandals, everything is already not being discussed, but what if we talk about the top scandal, which has been going on for the second week, then of course it is the scandal with the music video of khrystyna silova and serhii zhadan, i repeat that i am extremely flattered by the fact that our mass culture, our culture in general. is discussed simply on such a scale, because, well, since as a journalist i have

always dealt with the topic of culture since the fourth, third year there, i observe it all there over the years, and you know, before the start of the war, until 2014, very, very few people were interested in such a concept as ukrainian culture and culture in general, and then, well, if they were interested, it was mostly russian culture, and at first... . war, this interest specifically in domestic, i don't know, literature, art, music, cinema, it increased, but not in the way that it increased with the beginning of a full-scale invasion, because we just see some incredible surge of interest in and to history of ours and in general to any issues related to something humanitarian, it is of course easy to explain that we... somehow did not pay attention to ourselves, to our identity, and here we had to, and

we are so eager to make up for what was lost during years, and that is why it is absolutely clear why there are terrible discussions around these executions, even such a seemingly narrow concept as literature, yes, and here we are discussing both vehemently and forgetfully, and andruhovich, and here is zhadan, we constantly have in the information field, well, that's very good, by the way, in our country, writers generally become such stars, if we look at there, i don't know about... britain, the united states, france, then from time to time and quite often, writers even get into the educational chronicles, in tabloids, people discuss their personal lives, in particular, and we are starting to do it, it is on the contrary good, this is information that should be in this information field, and we can remember what

incredible scandals john rowling got into, yes, who discussed these tweets, this scandal, which pulls... it is about her attitude towards transgender people, it started a few years ago and still hasn't ended, and here it is - you know, the situation is absolutely healthy when serhii dzhadan regularly appears in our secular chronicles, especially what do you know, there is an opinion that he and khrystyna solovya do not like it when their personal lives are intruded on, but on the other hand we see how they... well enough, well, they themselves are included in all these discussions, they continue to position myself, well, as such a mysterious couple, yes, as if we are a couple, as if we are not a couple, people get involved in all this, and in conclusion, i will say that khrystyna solovya probably has some kind of strategy for getting into the media for this period, in some way, she overachieves, probably some kind of plan, because

she also got there literally at the end week was also up for discussion, because there was... such a briefing, well, a small one, a briefing , it is usually small, and it was about cultural and psychological assistance to the military, and oleksandr remes, a representative of the cultural landing force, was present there, this is such an organization that deals with various in particular, with concerts on the front line, and he, he was asked, and which of our ukrainian star musicians refused to go to the front line, well, it is clear that the journalist wanted some new scandals, because even before that , kolya sergavin, the co-founder of the cultural landing, stated that in an interview with the youtube channel grunt, he stated that tina karol refused several times, first promised, then refused, another student, a participant in the cultural landing, composer sasha chemerov in an interview with blogger alina dorytyuk said that he also refused to go to elboy, and here

it is certain that they wanted some other names, but oleksandr emes did not say, but khrystyna slovi, who was sitting next to him, decided. take the floor and called the singers who don't want to go to the front line fools, called them fools twice, this made many people very happy, even those people who supported the very idea that khrystyna solova said, but look, this very wording caused many people to laugh and well, it seems that this whole thought has been devalued because of these words, they say they sound very childish, and therefore they are not words that i would have to, for example... use, you know, an adult woman with and against her colleagues when she criticizes them, but in general, khrystyna slovii combined this with her accusations of people, women, performers who do not drive

to the front line, and those who traveled on the contrary, before the full-scale invasion of russia and now changed their shoes, manipulate the audience, the audience is led to believe that they have become patriots like that, in fact it is not so, that is why she said, well, what am i telling you, let's listen to christina. if we are talking about those the singers we mean, i can't say anything, except that they are just stupid, a lot of adjusters and changers appeared, changers and changers, and all of them, very much learned to exist in this, in the non-existent. the structure of ukrainian showbiz and understand how easy it is to influence the audience, how easy it is to be able yesterday to be a popular artist in russia, today to simply record a whole, whole series of songs in the ukrainian language, or

to paraphrase the texts of ukrainian poets and become attached to it to conscious ukraine, you know, i would like to finally say that there are two main opinions, even three main opinions regarding our, well, celebrities who did not notice that there was a war going on until the full-scale invasion, how to treat them and how to interpret their words, believe it or not to believe, you know, some people believe them, and these are very often people who themselves did not understand, but this is the meaning of the danger of war, until it directly affected them, and they think and believe and are convinced that there, for example, the same nastya kamecki, she is absolutely sincere. in the fact that she says that i, i did not understand that russia is evil, so i went there here and there, but there are people who categorically do not believe them, like khrystyna, they say that they manipulate

the audience, that the audience is constantly drawn to these beautiful words, in fact, all these stars, they knew everything perfectly about the war and the whole world, they were just making money, now it has simply become obscene, impossible, so they had to adapt to new ones. realities, switch to the ukrainian language and record songs in ukrainian, in fact, they still don't care about all this, they're just devices, and there is, you know, another point of view, the point of view that , for example, music critics talk about, they say the following, you know, we 've been demanding from our from celebrities, from actors, actresses, it's not just about what's in business, it's about bloggers, but that they should have greater national consciousness, greater patriotism, and now these people are starting to go for it, some sincerely, some not sincerely , all people are completely different with different motivations, and the opposite should be true for us

we are glad that the people from whom we have been demanding certain actions for so long are finally doing these actions, so let 's support them, criticize if they stray from some path, and monitor how our ukrainian is developing, well, in general. our culture is ukrainian in the broadest sense, and we should be glad that we are finally moving away from russian culture, we are less and less interested in what is happening there, so everything will be okay with us, and on the contrary , we need to discuss it, but of course do not forget that , what the war is going on, about the existence of the armed forces of ukraine and the need to help , always remember what is happening now, well, that's all my friends, i say goodbye to you, i wish you a calm evening, a calm night, be sure to stay with espresso, i'm saying goodbye to you, but we'll see you in the next broadcasts, before the production

of borzh, as the school attracted students of all courses, many of them have relatives at the front, so the thought of what you are doing for them the benefit is even warmer, rostislav bohdanov shares. if already made. that is, the detail arrived, it's already cut out, that's all, if you just boil it into a pile, it takes about an hour and a half, we make it for the guys for the zsu, because it's like our thanks to them, that we make them jackets to keep them warm for the winter, i have military men, well, the family is a brother and an uncle , they left from the very beginning of the war, that is, from the first call-up, that is why they help just the same, i do, requests from the military for banderopechi have been coming for about a month - says... master of industrial training viktor moslny the boys are interested, they worry about our country, our future, so that we have peace, that is why they are involved in various works, especially as the time is getting colder,

winter is already approaching. volunteers offer the defenders three options for banderopechs, the project manager shows the defender's game. such stoves, their main purpose is heating of premises, dugouts, i.e. premises where military personnel live. there are other stoves, the same ones from a cylinder, if you put it vertically, and there will be a flat surface, it is cut off and brewed, then it is more for cooking food, for heating food, there are also turbo stoves from a square the pipes are vertical, then purely for cooking, first of all they make bourzuyki for defenders from kirovohrad oblast, but they don’t refuse others either, volunteers call people to help the army and bring unnecessary scrap metal, it’s a receiver from trucks, in dump trucks, it helps, it’s pumped up here

air, it helps lift the body, trucks, but they make super super stoves, it is just the right size, money to buy metal, it is very expensive and it is very difficult to raise money for it, so please... residents of the city, region, in social networks, announced a meeting, someone, can cylinders, gas, receivers, old boilers are damaged, everything will go to work, there are pipes, corners, bolts, nuts, everything is going, fittings, everything will agree, defending the country , three dozen graduates of this school died, most of them gave their lives for ukraine already during the full-scale invasion. many of our students stood up to protect our ukraine, and it is the lessons of industrial training that enable our students not only to improve their knowledge and

skills in the profession from... but also to receive part of patriotic education. it is very sad, but we already have about 30 dead graduates of ours, and this is a non-final figure, because we are conducting search work and will find out that there are more. last year, as part of the defender's warming project in the kirovohrad region, more than half a hundred banderovets were produced, this year, the volunteers say, they will only gain momentum. from my family, my father and stepfather are fighting, they have been fighting for about eight months, we need to win this war as soon as possible, help the boys. from kropyvnytskyi for the espresso tv channel. i walked at home despite the military commissariat, fell, woke up, cast, i'm kidding, i went to the military commissariat, i asked for service, because some people need... for rockets

to the side of bakhnut, and why did i come here? well, maybe i will save someone’s life, well, that’s right, and we already saved it, it turns out that we provided emergency aid to a person, it was the first baptism of fire, when here we had a flight around the city, we were in the right place, the right time, the motivation of all these women alone, they do not want to see war at home, so they were looking for reasons to avoid service, in a son older than 20, on average 12, and the little one is eight years old, they support me, there is a goal in life, these are children, how do you like it here in general, it’s cool, i’m already used to all this, so that my children live in ukraine, i love ukraine very much, i love my hometown ternopil very much,
