Filling the sinkPope Francis - The Catalan Church, Gaudí and Messi
Pope Francis was known for his humility, compassion and emphasis on social justice. This week we'll be dedicating an episode of Filling the Sink to the memory of this popular spiritual leader and exploring his relationship with Catalonia. Catalan News travels to the Vatican to attend the Pope's funeral and meet some of the 250,000 mourners who have flocked to Rome to pay their last respects. We meet Míriam Díez Bosch, a journalist specializing in religion and founder director of the Blanquerna Observatory on Media, Religion and Culture in Barcelona, who analyzes the Pope's relationship with Catalonia.
And reporter Gerard Escaich Folch joins host Beth Cohen to discuss the current religious panorama in Catalonia, including rapid secularization and the diversification of religious beliefs due to immigration.
This week, our Catalan phrase is "Per l'amor de Déu!" - "For the love of God!", which despite its reference to the divine is used in everyday conversation to express strong emotions.
Filling the sinkA day in the dark - Catalonia left powerless after blackout
On April 28, 2025, a massive blackout affected Spain, Portugal, Andorra, and parts of France, leaving over 50 million people without power for up to 12 hours. This week on Filling the Sink, we investigate the causes and find out how it affected people across Catalonia. Catalan News journalists Gerard Escaich Folch, Lorcan Doherty and Cillian Shields join host Beth Cohen to relive some of the darkest moments of Monday's blackout. The outage halted trains, disrupted airports, and cut telecommunications and internet services. We analyze the government response and political fallout, as well as discussing how citizens should prepare for possible future events on this scale. This week, our Catalan phrase is "Estar com un llum" - which translates as "to be like a light" and means to be unstable or even a bit crazy. It originates from the early days of electricity, when light bulbs used to flicker and fade rather than providing a constant glow.
