195. Olia Hercules - Intentional Flooding of the Kakhovka Dam by Russia is an Act of Monumental Depravity

GUEST: Olia Hercules - Food writer, food stylist and chef. ---------- Today I’m talking to one of Ukraine’s leading cultural figures and most creative minds, about a very personal and difficult subject – the intentional flooding of, Kakhovka by Russia in an act of monumental depravity and barbarism. We’ll also be talking about how culture and food fortify the Ukrainian identify and strengthen their spirit of resistance against tyranny. #OliaHercules #ukrainiancusuine #borscht #ukraine #ukrainewar #russia #zelensky #putin #propaganda #war #disinformation #hybridwarfare #communism #sovietunion #postsoviet ---------- SPEAKER: Olia Hercules is a food writer, food stylist and chef who spent her early childhood in the town of old Kakhovka. She is author of many award-winning cookbooks including Mamushka, Kaukasis, Summer Kitchen and Home Food. She settled in the United Kingdom at the age of 18 to study international relations and Italian at Warwick University. Olia Hercules began working as a chef after completing a course at Leith's School of Food and Wine in 2010. In response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Hercules raised money to privately send bullet-proof vests to civilian volunteers in the Ukrainian army, including her brother. With her friend, the chef Alissa Timoshkina, she established the #CookForUkraine social media initiative, encouraging businesses and individuals to raise money for UNICEF by cooking Ukrainian cuisine. She has won many awards, include The Observer Rising Star in Food 2015 and was Winner of Fortnum & Mason's Debut Food Book Award 2016. ---------- BOOKS: Mamushka: Recipes from Ukraine & Beyond (Octopus Publishing (2015) Kaukasis: The Cookbook – A Journey Through the Wild East (Octopus Publishing (2017) Summer Kitchens Inside Ukraine's Hidden Places of Cooking and Sanctuary (2020) Home Food (Bloomsbury Publishing, 2022) ---------- LINKS: https://twitter.com/Olia_Hercules https://www.linkedin.com/in/olia-hercules-2097925a/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olia_Hercules ---------- WATCH NEXT: Orest Zub https://youtu.be/A7MrcwdDvPQ Aliona Hlivco https://youtu.be/yGLUBCfTkD8 Olga Tokariuk https://youtu.be/D5onDse6WJs Anna Danylchuk https://youtu.be/5AenntkSxIs Roman Sheremeta https://youtu.be/olrTPku8EMM ---------- CHAPTERS: 00:00 Introduction ---------- PLATFORMS: Twitter: https://twitter.com/CurtainSilicon Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siliconcurtain/ Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/4thRZj6NO7y93zG11JMtqm Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/finkjonathan/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- Welcome to the Silicon Curtain podcast.
