The door opens with a creak, and in comes Ieva, the laboratory partner bursting with energy.Lt: "Lukai, ar jau pasiruošęs? Domas greitai ateis," sako ji linksmu balsu.En: "Lukai, are you ready yet? Domas will be here soon," she says in a cheerful voice.Lt: Jos akys žiburiuoja smalsumu, laukdamos, ką pasirodys Lukas.En: Her eyes glitter with curiosity, anticipating what Lukas will reveal.Lt: Lukas, šiek tiek drąsesnis nei įprastai, rodo į burbuliuojančią kolbą.En: Lukas, a bit braver than usual, points to the bubbling flask.Lt: "Tai naujas gėrimas. Tikiuosi, kad jis pritrauks dėmesį," sumurma jis.En: "It's a new drink. I hope it will attract attention," he mumbles.Lt: Bet giliai širdyje žino, kad męs apie ramybę ir tyliai viliasi įdomesnių dalykų.En: But deep in his heart, he knows he longs for peace and quietly wishes for more interesting things.Lt: Staiga įeina Domas, ryžtingas ir griežtas laboratorijos vadovas.En: Suddenly, Domas, the determined and stern head of the laboratory, enters.Lt: Jo planuose ši diena turi būti ypatinga - jie turi visą ekipažą pristatyti savo naujausius tyrimus svarbiam svečiui - prestižiniam mokslininkui iš užsienio.En: In his plans, this day is to be special - they are to present their latest research to an important guest - a prestigious scientist from abroad.Lt: "Kas čia vyksta?

Christmas Short Works Collection 2017 by Various ciesse This year's Christmas collection of short stories, poems and non-fiction features 29 readings in English, Lithuanian, Spanish and Romanian. Unstoppable Farce; The Mitch Maloney Story Mitch Maloney Unstoppable Farce tells the story of "Mr. Mirth" himself, in his own words, beginning with forty-five years of what might generously be described as a wasted existence before he decided to become the most successful FC (Famous Comedian) of all time. He describes how he created his Lithuanian Chupacabra alter ego, honed his signature Cheezy Pleezers bit, and became a viral sensation on Qlip Qlop and H!jnx. He dishes the dirt on touring with Hannah Gadsby and Dave Chapelle, what really went down behind the scenes at SNL, and what it was like to be the first (and last) comedian to play the Acropolis. And that's just the beginning. This audio production was made possible by the Seventh Reformed Church of Latter Day Witnesses. Audio engineering by Darbeliostriumopolatrius Macodivetticus. Theme music: "Ouchy" written and performed by Muddy Mitch with Sweet Tooth Delacroix. Monssun Monssun Monssun - Simonas Gudavičius is a Lithuanian musician & producer coming from Siauliai/Vilnius.
