Welcome Tim.
Katherine McKenzieHOST
Thank you very much.
Danny KasmanGUEST
But, um, that's, that's the main upside of we, we often complain this festival's too big, and there's so many films, and this kind of indiscriminate programming.
Danny KasmanGUEST
But really it's only festivals of this size, like TIFF, like Berlin, like Rotterdam, where you actually have the opportunity to be like, "What's playing at 2:00? Oh, like, 10 movies.
Danny KasmanGUEST
I'm gonna choose one of them," or, "I popped out of this movie 'cause I walked out, or it ended, or whatever, and then what else is going on?" A lot of things versus one thing or two things.
Danny KasmanGUEST
So the, the-
KodiHOST
Thank you, thank you so much.
KodiHOST
I, I saw you guys' post a week or two ago after Rotterdam and I was like, "I need to talk to them about this." So I, I did what I always do.

KodiHOST
Thank you so much.

Ben WrightGUEST
We have a board of directors, and we do a lot of different things through Bluegrass Ambassadors, all with this kind of, you know, message of making sure people are seen, uh, at the core of it.
Ben WrightGUEST
And so, you know, we did, we- and I- we can get to that.
Ben WrightGUEST
We did this big project in Rotterdam.
Ben WrightGUEST
But just as important is some of...
James HollandGUEST
So I've been lucky along the way to have some amazing coaches for sure.
Willem van DenderenHOST
So that would have been across Arsene Alkmaar's underage setup and then into Sparta Rotterdam? Yeah, exactly.
Willem van DenderenHOST
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Willem van DenderenHOST
How was that as a young man traversing around the Netherlands? They're nice cities.
Willem van DenderenHOST
Alkmaar's a little bit quiet, but yeah, Rotterdam's a little bit bigger, although Sparta on the smaller end.
Willem van DenderenHOST
How'd you feel your time off the football pitch then at a very different stage of your life, I'm sure? Yeah, I'm sure you're across
James HollandGUEST
it all.
Tom MayNARRATOR
The linen industry made the people rich.
Tom MayNARRATOR
In time, a city sprang up, which they called Rotterdam, or the dam where they rotted the flax.
Tom MayNARRATOR
And because where had been a forest of oaks with a pool and rivulet, there was now a silvery stream flowing gently between verdant meadows, they made the arms and seal of the city green and white, two of the former and one of the latter.
Tom MayNARRATOR
That is, verdure and silver.

Hannah CatherineNARRATOR
"Who has been here? It looks like a rat's picnic." However, the workmen soon came and set everything to rights.
Hannah CatherineNARRATOR
Then they packed up the pretty things.
Hannah CatherineNARRATOR
They hammered down the box lids and before night the Japanese curiosities were all sorted in the hold of a swift Dutch ship from Nagasaki bound to Rotterdam.
Hannah CatherineNARRATOR
After a long voyage, the vessel arrived safely in good season and the boxes were sent into The Hague or the capital city.
Sonia RectenwaldHOST
And my last stop takes us to the Netherlands.
Sonia RectenwaldHOST
Now, if you're looking at a Dutch and Belgian Waterways cruise, there's one name that tends to swallow up a lot of the attention: Amsterdam, then perhaps Rotterdam.
Sonia RectenwaldHOST
And if the itinerary includes Kinderdijk, those famous windmills understandably get a lot of attention, too.
Sonia RectenwaldHOST
But then there's Dordrecht.
Eirik HooperGUEST
So another one that's been in the news recently but is normally overlooked is the inland waterway in Northern Europe, the Rhine, the Danube and others.
Eirik HooperGUEST
These are critically important logistics corridors for the major northern European hub ports, especially Rotterdam and Antwerp.
Eirik HooperGUEST
The Rhine at its critical choke point at Kalb hit just, I think it was six centimetres in August.
Eirik HooperGUEST
It's recovered now to 60 centimetres.
Mr BallenHOST
Okay? Let's get into today's stories.
Mr BallenHOST
[upbeat music] Around one thirty PM on the afternoon of May eighteenth, two thousand and seven, a fifty-seven-year-old woman named Yvonne de Hoord arrived at a park in Rotterdam, which is a city in the Netherlands.
Mr BallenHOST
She was there to meet up with her friend, and she had to cut through the park to get to his house.
Mr BallenHOST
Yvonne went to her friend's house almost every day, and usually when she walked through the park during the week, there weren't that many people around.
Nick BramleyHOST
And Hal Robson-Carnu on LinkedIn shared a video of their Feyenoord Ultras.
Nick BramleyHOST
This guy lives on a second floor apartment block in Rotterdam and the Feyenoord Ultras went outside his flat And they were bouncing up and down with flares, celebrating this guy's 91st birthday.
Nick BramleyHOST
And you've got to look at it and go, that is a community club, mate.
Nick BramleyHOST
That is what football and football fans are all about.
