Transcript:Lt: Vilnius televizijos bokštas išdidžiai iškilo prieš pavasario dangų, jo metalu ir stiklu puošta struktūra spindėjo saulėje.En: The Vilnius television tower proudly stood against the spring sky, its metal and glass adorned structure glistening in the sun.Lt: Keliautojai sostinėje jau jautė šiltesnį orą, o aplink bokštą plytintis parkas prabudo po šaltos žiemos, žaliuojantys lapai ir drėgnos žemės kvapas žadino gyvybę.En: Travelers in the capital already felt the warmer weather, and the park spreading around the tower awoke after a cold winter, with green leaves and the smell of damp earth stirring life.Lt: Rasa stovėjo prieš bokštą, atsiduso ir žvelgė aukštyn.En: Rasa stood before the tower, sighed, and looked up.Lt: Ji buvo elektrinės inžinierė ir draugų tarpe žinoma kaip aistringa paslapčių sprendėja.En: She was an electrical engineer known among friends as a passionate solver of mysteries.Lt: Netoli Velykų, kai visi šventė su šeimomis, Rasa negalėjo sukaupti minčių dėl mįslingo signalo, sklindančio iš bokšto viršūnės.En: Near Easter, when everyone was celebrating with families, Rasa couldn't concentrate due to a mysterious signal coming from the top of the tower.Lt: Šis signalas, kaip ji girdėjo iš kolegų, kėlė problemų ryšių operatoriams.En: This signal, as she heard from colleagues, was causing issues for communication operators.Lt: Jos iniciatyvą ir gebėjimus dažnai apgadindavo kolegų skepticizmas, kuris kildavo ir dėl žinomų jos tėvo pasiekimų.En: Her initiative and abilities were often overshadowed by the skepticism of colleagues, which also arose because of her father's known achievements.Lt: Nors Rasa jautė aplinkinių abejones, ji buvo ryžtinga.En: Although Rasa felt the doubts of those around her, she was determined.Lt: Ji nusprendė: šį kartą veiks savarankiškai.En: She decided: this time she would act independently.Lt: Planas paprastas, tačiau rizikingas – slapta prasiskverbti į bokšto draudžiamas viršutines dalis.En: The plan was simple but risky—secretly infiltrate the prohibited upper sections of the tower.Lt: Ten, kaip manė, turėtų paaiškėti šio signalo paslaptis.En: There, she thought, the mystery of the signal should become clear.Lt: Ieva ir Tomas, jos draugai bei kolegos, nerimavo dėl Rasos drąsos.En: Ieva and Tomas, her friends and colleagues, were worried about Rasa's courage.Lt: Vis dėlto, jie suprato, kaip daug Rasai reiškia šis iššūkis.En: Nevertheless, they understood how much this challenge meant to her.Lt: Naktį įsibėgėjant, Rasa, tvirta ir pasitikinti, žingsniavo link bokšto durų.En: As night advanced, Rasa, firm and confident, walked towards the tower doors.Lt: Aplink tylu, tik vėjo šnarėjimas.En: Silence surrounded her, only the rustling of the wind.Lt: Greitomis įėjusi vidun ir vengdama saugumo kamerų, ji ėmė kopti į viršų.En: Quickly entering inside and avoiding the security cameras, she began to climb upwards.Lt: Žingsnis po žingsnio, kovodama su baime būti susektai, ji pasiekė aukščiausią punktą.En: Step by step, battling the fear of being discovered, she reached the highest point.Lt: Ten, tarp senųjų bokšto kabelių, Rasa pastebėjo senovinį radijo siųstuvą.En: There, among the old tower cables, Rasa noticed an ancient radio transmitter.Lt: Jos širdis suspurdo.En: Her heart raced.Lt: Ar tai priežastis?En: Could this be the cause?Lt: Paradoksalu, bet tą prietaisą čia atsitiktinai palikęs profesorius, kažkada laikytas ekscentrišku ir nesuprastu.En: Paradoxically, that device had been left there by a professor, once considered eccentric and misunderstood.Lt: Rasa, apžiūrėjusi elementus, atsiduso – signalas buvo visiškai nekenksmingas.En: Upon examining the components, Rasa sighed—the signal was completely harmless.Lt: Ryte, kai sugrįžo pas draugus, ji laikė raporta rankoje.En: In the morning, when she returned to her friends, she held a report in her hand.Lt: Palaipsniui aiškino, draugams ir vadovams, kaip signalų problema buvo protėvėje palikta smulkmena.En: Gradually explaining to friends and superiors how the issue with the signals was just an old triviality left by predecessors.Lt: Sunku buvo pasiekti, tačiau įsiklausę į Rasos paaiškinimus, jie suprato jos pastangas ir talentą.En: It was difficult to achieve, but by listening to Rasa's explanations, they understood her efforts and talent.Lt: Garsai Vilniaus televizijos bokšte vėl tapti aiškūs ir švarūs.En: Sounds at the Vilnius television tower once again became clear and pure.Lt: Rasa, pagaliau ištrūkusi iš tėvo šešėlio, įtvirtino savo vertę kaip talentinga ir užsispyrusi inžinierė.En: Rasa, finally breaking free from her father's shadow, established her worth as a talented and determined engineer.Lt: Draugai ir kolegos nuo šio momento ją matė kitaip – kaip ryškią, savarankišką asmenybę, sugebančią stoti prieš bet kokį iššūkį.En: Friends and colleagues from that moment saw her differently—as a bright, independent personality, capable of facing any challenge.

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.
