I'm outside the #UK & want to listen to this #BBC #BBCRadio #Radio3 #History show from #PaulFrench about #HongKong #Kowloon #WalledCity on my laptop

Between The Ears - Return to the City of Darkness

But after a second of showing a page with a "Play" button, it changes to a 404 error (tried in Firefox & Chrome), & the show's podcast doesn't have any eps from the last 2 years. Any ideas how I can get it?

#Kowloon Motor Bus Company (1933) Limited has donated a retired double-decker to Hong Kong Federation of Education Workers Wong Cho Bau School under its bus donation scheme, supporting STEAM and wellbeing education in #HongKong. The vehicle has been converted into “Beidou Hub”, a multi-purpose learning space launched at the school’s 25th anniversary. Designed around deep space exploration, it features a digital #science lab with holographic simulation for primary science experiments, a counselling corner, a flight #simulator and VR zones covering topics such as the water cycle and typhoons. The principal said the relaxed setting eases pressure and encourages immersive learning. Students described lessons as more engaging and inspiring. Since 2016, KMB’s scheme has benefited 44 organisations, promoting reuse and sustainability.

Ein wunderschoener Podcast ueber den King of #Kowloon, einen #Graffiti "Kuenstler" der eigentlich nur sehr eigenwillig und bestaendig das Land seiner Ahnen vom Staat zurueckforderte, indem er #HongKong jahrzehntelang mit Kalligraphien bombte und damit Generationen und ihr Empfinden fuer die Identitaet des Stadtstaates praegte. Diese tauchen jetzt wieder vermehrt auf, und bilden eine Grabesrede im Angesicht des expansionistischen Projekts Chinas.

This week, from 2022: For years Tsang Tsou-choi daubed his eccentric demands around Hong Kong, and the authorities raced to cover them up. But as the city’s protest movements bloomed, his words mysteriously reappearedWritten and read by Louisa Lim
