[000:00:00;00] added way, when already the stars say that we give the fees we earned for some dubious events to the defense forces, or buy something, this is how, for example, olya poryakova did at her concerts that took place in the palace of ukraine, loud , which were advertised simply from every iron, she declared that this fee , which she received for a scandalous wedding in lviv, and which she spent, gave it to the forces of...' defense and plus added the funds that she earned at this concert, and therefore so the amount is by the way, of course, it is very good that alya palyukova is doing this, on the other hand, i was amused, let's say, that she invited one of the most famous, well, well -known volunteer to the stage, let's say that, and this

volunteer talked for a long time about how olya polyakova does not advertise her help to the defense forces and in general to people who simply suffered from the war, as she does not speculate on this, and this is what she told for a very, very long time on the big stage during the concert of olya polyakova, olya polyakova then posted this video to herself on instagram, how modest she is, well here you 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 who, i don't know , what's in their head and what they're thinking about, that's what i want to say, they start to calculate how olya earns money, where she takes it, what she spends it on, and i want to tell you just a little about what she does, using the example of our fund, just what is olya doing, now we have arrived and our medics of the 53rd brigade, they are really asking for very big losses under the audio, they are really

asking for a vacation car, and olya has already allocated money for... well, also, mykhailo yasinskyi, it was the producer oli poryakovy who also confirmed this, and he even gave an approximate amount that palyakova made for at this corporate party, at this wedding, he said this in an interview with slava domin on his youtube channel, he said that two sums. appeared in the media, there various journalists mentioned some amounts, it was $10,000 and $25,000, but yasinsky said that it was somewhere there in the middle, and said that because there is a large part of it, well, of course, there is a fee that must be distributed among the team, because olya polyakova does not perform in the band herself, but polyakova herself earned from it, well, somewhere between 4-500 dollars,

said yasinsky, and here they all went, for the needs of the armed forces, and also, the same situation happened with mykhailo tkach, with the comedian, who actually went to perform at the wedding of one of the participants in this terrible sex scandal with drunks at parties, when boys invited girls to their apartment, they were given drinks there until the state of unconsciousness and continued to shoot the video sexually. character, it was violence against the girls, of course, the trial is going on now, here is one of them , oleg zakharov, came out on bail and played a wedding, first of all, many people, i in particular, was surprised how anyone at all agreed to marry him, this is strange enough, and as for me, and secondly, yuriy tkach went to speak, and after

photos from this wedding with him and the weaver appeared on instagram, of course another riot broke out and the weaver resorted to explanations, he all admitted that it's terrible it was unacceptable and he's going to spend all the money he made from this wedding, all the royalties, on mavic and starling and stuff, and by the way, he explained, that's a pretty standard explanation now too , among our celebrities that we didn't know anything , we didn't...' understood, yuriytkach said that i didn't know what kind of oleg he was and didn't know what kind of scandals these were, you know, two moments that , well , which can be used to explain what is happening in general, or our show business stars, well, i don't want to generalize, of course, most of the stars of show business, celebrities who work there in the entertainment industry, one way or another, they really live in some kind of bubble of their own, where pink

ponies run around, unicorns or butterflies. they live in this world and generally do not know anything about what is happening in our society, but there is a second point that they know everything very well, they just have to somehow earn money and a lot of times you there are some other things, they remain outside the boundaries of public discussion, you can do something quietly to do, to 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 institute our reputation is somehow very slowly formed, and usually all scandals , even the most... some terrible ones, end up with the fact that people just forget about it and those involved continue to work for themselves, as if nothing happened, because we have already forgotten already other scandals, that's all

well, all that is not 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 silovi and serhiy shadan, i will repeat myself. that i am extremely flattered by the fact that our mass culture, in general, our culture is simply discussed on such a scale, because, well, since i , as a journalist, have always dealt with the topic of culture since the fourth or third year there, i have observed all this over the years, and you know, until from the beginning of the war to 2014, there are many, many of us 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 with the beginning of the war, this interest was precisely in domestic, i don’t know, literature, art,

music, movies, it has increased, but not in the same way that it increased with the beginning of the full-scale invasion, because we just see some incredible surge of interest in a, in our history and in general in any... questions that relate to something humanitarian , it is certainly easy to explain the fact that we somehow did not pay attention to ourselves, to our identity , here we had to, and with such a thirst we begin to make up for what was lost over the years, and therefore it is absolutely clear why even these executions, terrible discussions around, even such it would seem that literature is a narrow concept, yes, but here it is mykurku. we discuss, and we also discuss zabushka, and andrukovovich, and here zhadan is constantly in our information field, well, this is very good, by the way, in

our country, writers in general become like this stars, if we look there, i don't know, at britain, at the united states, at france, then from time to time and not infrequently enough, writers even end up in the educational chronicle, on the scoreboard, and where people... discuss their personal life, in particular, and we're starting to do it, it's the opposite of good, it's information that should be in this information field, we can remember what incredible scandals john rowling got into, the way the tweets were discussed, this scandal that goes around and attitude to transgender people, it started several years ago and it still hasn't ended, and that's how it is, you know, the situation is absolutely healthy, when serhiy zhadan regularly appears in the secular chronicles, especially since you know, there is an opinion that he and krestina solovya do not like it when there

get into their personal lives, but on the other hand, we see how they , well enough, include themselves in all these discussions, they continue to position themselves, well, as such a mysterious couple, as if we are a couple. as if we are not a couple, people get involved in all this, well, and in conclusion, i will say that khrystyna says that she probably has some kind of strategy for getting into the media for this period, she overachieves in some way, probably some kind of plan, because she also came under discussion literally at the end of the week, because there was such a briefing, well, a small briefing, he usually a small one, but which concerned cultural and psychological assistance to the military, and alexander was present there. representative of the cultural landing, this is such an organization that deals with various, in particular , concerts on the front line, and he, he was asked, and some of our ukrainian musicians, stars refused

to go to the forefront, well here it is clear that the journalist wanted some new scandals, because before that, kolya sergavin, the co-founder of the cultural landing, stated that in an interview with the youtube channel grund, he stated , that tina karol refused several times, promised, then refused, another student , participant of the cultural landing, composer sasha chemerov, in an interview with alina dorytyuk, told the blogger that he also refused to go to elboy, and here it is certain that they wanted some more names, but here is alexander emets didn't say anything, but khrystyna slovi, who was sitting next to her, decided to take the floor and called the singers who don't want to go to the front line fools, she called them fools twice, this made many people very happy, even those people who supported the very idea she said khrystyna solovya, but this very wording caused laughter in many people and gave the impression that this whole thought was devalued because of these words, they say they sound very childish, and therefore they are not the

words that, for example, such a person would have to use you know, an adult a woman with and against her colleagues when she criticizes them, but in general khrystyna slovi connected her accusations about this in her speech, people, women, performers who do not go to the front and those who went on the contrary, to a full-scale invasion of russia and changed shoes now manipulate the audience , the audience is led to believe that they have become such patriots, in fact it is not so, so she said, well, what am i telling you, let's listen to khrystyna. as for the singers we have in mind, i can't say anything except that they are it's just stupid, a lot of adaptors and changers have appeared after readjustments and changers, and all of them have learned

to exist in this, in the non-existent infrastructure of ukrainian show-biz, and understand how easily you can influence the audience, just as you could yesterday, being what's more, the desired artist in the region in russia today simply records a whole, a whole series of songs in the ukrainian language or variations. texts of ukrainian poets and become attached to them to conscious ukrainianness? you know, i would like to finally say what is these are two main thoughts, even three main thoughts regarding our, well, celebrities, who until the full-scale invasion did not notice that a war was going on, how to treat them and how to interpret their words, to believe or not to believe?

you know, some people believe them, and these are very often people who themselves did not understand this, well, the meaning of the danger of war, until it directly affected them, and now they think and believe and are convinced that there, for example, the same nastya kamelsky, she is absolutely sincere in what she says that i, i did not understand what russia is evil, that's why i went here and there, but there are people who categorically do not believe them, like christina, they say that they pollute the audience, that the audience is constantly led by 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 realities, switch to the ukrainian language and record songs in ukrainian, in fact, they still don't give a damn about all this, they just are accommodation, and there's, you know, another... point of view, the point of view that

, that's what music critics talk about, for example, they say this, you know, we've demanded so long from our celebrities, from actors, actresses, also, not here, not only about show business, it is 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, eh, and on the contrary, we should be glad that the people from whom we are for so long they demanded some actions, finally these actions are being done, so let's support them, criticize them if they stray from some path, and monitor how our ukrainian, well, in general , our culture and ukrainian in the broadest sense develops, and rejoice that finally we are leaving, and we are less and less interested in russian culture, 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 the war is going on, that there are armed forces of ukraine and that you need to help, always remember what is happening now, that's all my friends, i say goodbye to you, i wish you a peaceful evening, a peaceful night, be sure to stay with espresso, i i say goodbye to you, and we will see you in the next broadcasts. icelandic moss vitamin c is your power. to fight against cough and snoring icelandika there are discounts on icelandika pastilles of 20% in pharmacies of trips to different areas of human activity. sports, health, politics, return of crimea, military analytics. nine presenters, journalists, experts, thought leaders in real time , it is more relevant: events through the prism of war in

in the evening at espresso. how we built our houses, when you stand under the heavens of the earth, the heavens turn around, float away, you understand that you need to live where death does not scare you, build walls from algae and grass, dig wolf holes and ditches, get used to it

live together with everyone day by day, motherland, this is where you are understood when you speak in the spring. this time we traveled through the east of ukraine, to places that preserve the memory of life in ukrainian slobodas. where houses are still painted with the unique and incomparable petryki painting. the ukrainian east is where they are proud of their old wooden school, which survived the second world war, and

will definitely survive this one, and where the local residents restored the cossack tower at their own expense, because they are proud of their past, and although, part of these places today are under occupation and suffer from shelling, there is something that cannot be destroyed by bullets and shells. these are our memories, our common memory. in the place of the wild field, slobodkas, that is, settlements, began to form. these were ukrainians who moved from the right bank of ukraine to the left bank. piserivka itself is a cossack settlement, and they came from the dnieper, the history of slabic ukraine, or as we used to say slobozhanshchyna, is inextricably linked with the most common. settlements, slobodas, where mostly cossacks and freemen lived peasants the center of the ukrainian settlement

was always the church, around which stood the cossack roots, i.e. light, often temporary buildings in which the cossacks spent the night and wintered. pisarivka is no exception, because here was not only a church, but also a monastery. in the monastery, a relative of grigory salovych of the pan served as hegumen. hryhoriy salovych skovoroda was there very often. in this monastery, came here and he wrote some of his poems here in this monastery. unfortunately, neither the wooden monastery nor the church survived, although the latter stood until mid 90s. our church was a wooden church of the intercession, there were only three of them in ukraine. and precisely such and such architecture, wooden, without a single nail, without anything, everything, in the year 95. due to the father's inattention, he dropped the electric stove and went there on a call, and the church burned down. the church

was rebuilt in the same place, but not made of wood, and they decided to establish the ethnographic museum ukrainian slobitka nearby. a mill was brought from a neighboring village. there are almost no old houses left in good condition, but enthusiasts took parts of three dilapidated houses and made one. they brought it all here and assembled it and made it into two houses. one house, oh, sunshine, it’s cool here, it’s going to be nice, come on in, there are two rooms in this house, in one bedroom there is a bed that is more than 100 years old, embroidery by local craftsmen, household items, but the most interesting thing here is the living room, the main room of the house , which is called a light, this is a light, the sun rises in us, it rises, it rises in the house , you can see, you can see, you can see, you can see, and it sets

, what, light, comes into the house, that’s why the whole house was called a light, now you will know, yes this wall faces north, the coldest wall, it faces north, you don't need to stay here, it doesn't blow, nowhere, nothing, people slept here, guests cooked here, children slept here, old people. the house was sweltering, it was heating up and the ceiling was warm, often folk architecture, which at first glance cannot surpass the work of architects, can actually be more comfortable for life, because when building a home for yourself from scratch, a person is primarily interested in where he gets off and on the sun, from where it blows in winter, and where it floods when it rains. good architecture, it is not necessary

made with the participation of... very often there are cities that arose with incredible skill, which to this day are such tourist centers, attractions and listed in unesco, well, these cities of yemin, the maghreb, or there the spanish old cities are so very.. . like córdaba, well, for example, or , or amsterdam, that’s exactly amsterdam, what we see on all these postcards is, it’s just done without architects, there are exceptions, there are certain state institutions, in most cases it’s , it was simply such an understanding of certain principles that

were passed down from hand to hand for generations and that was it such rather well-engineered, technical solutions, which were based on those resource opportunities that were nearby, and some such certain social structures, and that is why ukrainian vernacular architecture is the same as with borscht, and he, he has hundreds of recipes, and they are very dependent on these recipes, and what grows in the garden, in this area, it is interesting how in the past people created a comfortable home, having almost nothing except the knowledge that was passed down through the generations and the materials that were at hand, here in the house there was a large a collection of kerosene lamps because there was no electricity then, candles were expensive, today, due to a power outage, the museum exhibits unexpectedly became useful to the residents of pysarivka, they come to me, they say, you will borrow for a while, until it is light, if there is no, pose, i say, borrow,

a receipt , three, i borrowed against the receipt, yes. gas is bought, yes, it works , the lamp is normal, it is interesting how museums simply preserve time, and how sometimes it is strange to immerse yourself in history and draw parallels with today. if cossacks once lived in pisarivka and had to protect the russian empire from the tatars, now they are defending themselves from russia, because the border is just 15 km away, and during the recording of this interview , we heard artillery fire time and time again. bugka, do you understand, isn’t it a bugka, isn’t it a bugka, bugka, when the roofs tremble, then bugka, then it’s scary, honestly, it becomes scary, and people have experienced it when it flies overhead, i myself see how a rocket flies, then bav pvo , the explosion goes flying, pieces fly in the field, fighter jets fly by, low, so scary, i bend over to the ground, but still we

, i imagine that there are people in the basements. oh my god, it's already there, 20 km from pissarivka is the grigory skovoroda museum, which was targeted by russian troops in the early spring of 2022. photos of the destroyed museum were circulated by all ukrainian and western media. you just have to get into the museum in the middle of nowhere, it's specially made, you see, specially made, someone suggested, it's not war, it's. this is a disease, the real one, you understand, well, you can’t wage war like that, you just can’t, i don’t know, there are no words, i don’t want to, how it is every day, you understand, you come home, one thing you will go somewhere, the second, somewhere, try, distract yourself, i say, come here , look, and thank god, everything is fine, everything is fine for now, everyone in piserivka perfectly understands who is shelling ukrainian cities and

why, in that in the nearby historical museum... which is also taken care of by leonid, next to the stand about the terrible holodomor, there are still portraits of lenin. we saw the same picture for a second in the ethnographic museum of the village of artyukhivka. well, this is exactly ethnographic music, where there are a lot of references to lenin, lenin, brezhnev, i was thinking about ukrainian music. and about ukrainian culture, oh damn, so much lenin, when we turned on the lights, although we came to artyukhivka to find old mazankas under the roof, in which people still live, we saw a completely different picture, namely expensive villas with swimming pools and expensive cars

parked nearby, location to kharkiv itself. if you have a car, it is 40 minutes and you are already in kharkiv, a pioneer, if it was the former governor of the kharkiv region, this is a dobkin, if everyone thought that this is kharkiv like that, switzerland, there is an unbelievable ruble, baden-baden, traditional local architecture, which until recently was abundant in artyukhivka, is being destroyed. and new villas are built based either simply on their own taste, or in the best case, on foreign models, if you look at some new buildings there, some chalets, what is happening there, there are some mediterranean villas, the people are clearly something, well, they are working on that

exotic copy-paste, and you know, as a
