Ricky situation: Puerto Rico’s protests
Sobre este episodio
Rolling protests have rocked the island after leaked texts revealed the governor’s insults. But Puerto Rico’s problems are far greater than almost 900 pages of tasteless jokes.

And, why women are so well represented among eastern Europe’s scientists. <hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
