Comenzaremos el programa discutiendo la actualidad. El tema de la primera discusión trata sobre el cambio de nombre del Departamento de Defensa de EE. UU. a "Departamento de la Guerra". Continuaremos con una larga y enconada disputa histórica entre Ucrania y Polonia que fue resuelta entre los dos países. La siguiente noticia es sobre un documento enviado al Departamento de Energía de EE. UU. por 85 científicos del clima, en respuesta al informe sobre el cambio climático elaborado por la Administración Trump. Y, para acabar, hablaremos del canon cultural del Gobierno sueco, que consiste en 100 obras, marcas e ideas que ayudan a definir la identidad sueca. Sorprendentemente, el grupo ABBA no fue incluido en la lista. El resto del episodio de hoy lo dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. En ambas conversaciones viajaremos al siglo XVI. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, General Use of prepositions Por and Para - Overview. En esta conversación hablaremos de los matrimonios reales en la España del siglo XVI. Los enlaces matrimoniales se utilizaban para forjar alianzas políticas, asegurar la sucesión al trono y consolidar el linaje. ¡Los príncipes y princesas nunca se casaban por amor! Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, Al pan, pan y al vino, vino. La usaremos para hablar de San Lorenzo de El Escorial, el mausoleo real de los padres del rey Felipe II, construido en el último tercio del siglo XVI. Esta edificación está considerada como la octava Maravilla del Mundo, y en 1984 fue declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco.
