FOR REAL is a podcast on human dignity, made by Resonate Productions.

In each episode, we get together with a group of people in a theater, to look into what it means to matter as a person. All interviews are carried by improvised music, made by George Dumitriu (viola, guitar), Sarah Jeffery (recorders) and Andrea Voets (harp).

This episode was recorded on the 27th of October 2024, POM, Eindhoven (NL).

In this episode:

(01:25) Saskia [°1970 - Groningen, NL] on the position of women in physics. "I am full of stories. I have been interviewing female physicists of color and I was crying behind my laptop. And then a colleagues is telling me I am making things up."

(06:42) Arnoud [°1978 - Zeist, NL] "I am the oldest son of the oldest son. So responsibility becomes a big issue. Be in control." And a U-turn that had to be taken.

(12:37) Mauricio Diaz [°1981 - Mexico City] "A very important thing is to matter and to be respected. And to be alive."

(18:23) Inge [°1988 - USA/NL] recently became a mother herself, which started conversations with her own mother. "It's so similar, what we experienced. Which makes me sad. Women are still so pushed as women."

(21:47) Astrid [°1990 - Columbia] "I loose my voice. I do want to say things, but feel that nothing that I would be capable to say is meaningful. Because I have been harmed, I don't want to harm."

(26:44) What do you deserve? To be more proud of myself. To be able to speak my mind. To be respected as a man in my vulnerability. To be loved and be happy, as we all do.
