Macedonian Content Farmers Podcast, Episode 154 – The Austrians are coming

1 year ago
92

Who says that societal decline can't be a laughing matter? Jason and Cvetin find the humorous side in the on-going gang war in Skopje, DUI's newfound appetite for majority rule and the planned bulldozing of archeological sites. We discuss how VMRO found a way to turn the debate about the Constitution on its head and actually score some points against SDSM and the Albanians by - gasp - demanding that Macedonians rolls back some of the endless national concessions they made over the decades. But also how their move prompted calls for federalization of the country from the Government's most recently added Albanian party. As we are contract bound, we also discuss how the Bulgarian elections may affect Macedonia and the harsh language with which Pendarovski refused their request to have a formal seat at the committee drafting the constitutional amendments.
And we can't resist but talk about the Balkan Twitter sensation - Gunther the Austrian who is very good (too good?) at pushing buttons, and his antics in the Holocaust Museum in Skopje.

All this, and more, in the latest Macedonian Content Farmers podcast.
