What if Sisyphus, at the top of his mountain, suddenly tunes in to the right wavelength?
Through Radio Parabool, he finds himself caught up in a conversation about populism, power, and the major problems facing our world.
Why do we keep looking for simple answers to complex questions? And what do you do when the boulder just keeps rolling?

Orwell's 2026
We click.
We accept.
We keep scrolling.
And somewhere along the way… boundaries begin to blur.
In this episode, Radio Parabool meets George Orwell, the writer who once warned of a world of control—and now discovers that we’re installing our own telescreens.
An episode about algorithms, truth, convenience…
and the moment right before you click.
Listen, be inspired…
…and see you after the summer, when we’ll be getting a visit from antiquity!

Are you scrolling, or are you being scrolled?
Social media feels normal. It even makes sense.
But that’s exactly the problem.
In this episode, we dive into the work of Marshall McLuhan, who saw decades ago what we’re only now beginning to sense: the medium shapes not only what we see—but how we think.
We scroll, share, and react. Meanwhile, our attention, our perception, and our sense of what’s real are changing.
Not because someone planned it that way. But because we’re right in the middle of it.
Maybe you’ll only see it… when you take a step back.
Media as an invisible force: from glamour to manipulation.
In this first series, we explore how media—from film and television to digital networks—not only convey information but also shape the way we think, desire, and experience reality.

Marlene Who?
In a slightly rattling satellite, somewhere above the Earth’s axis, Hypo and Madame Whiplash are trying to put on a broadcast. They’re having mixed success.
Then, unexpectedly, a guest appears: Marlene Dietrich.
They talk about black-and-white films, 1930s Hollywood, divas with contracts, and why some people would rather sing for soldiers than for dictators.
Meanwhile, Fay checks in, panics slightly, and discovers that time in a satellite is mostly a matter of perception.

Directly above the Earth’s axis
A straight line above the Earth’s axis.
A foundation that wants to go online.
A technician who suddenly finds himself in two places at once.
“The Right Wavelength” is an attempt.
Whether that’s enough remains to be seen for now.

Welcome to the Parabool
In this first episode of Radio Parabool, we’re introduced to a radio station that may not actually exist, but certainly sounds very serious.
“Welcome to the Parabool” is a tentative first step into a parallel radio world where science, fiction, and a touch of confusion intersect.
The episode balances between a radio play and a podcast, between explanation and experimentation. Questions are asked that seem to lead nowhere, voices sound as if they know what they’re doing, and silence sometimes takes on just as much meaning as sound.
Radio Parabool is neither a traditional interview program nor pure satire. It’s a playful exploration of what radio can sound like when you know the rules but decide not to always follow them.
This first episode is an opening, a test run, a hello—to the listener, to Hypo, and to everything that might still go off the rails from here on out.
