The Happy Pod: The chance encounter that became a lasting friendship

I'm Alex Ritson, and in this edition... Two women whose chance meeting led to an intergenerational friendship tell us why it's something we all need in our lives. The giant tortoises returning to an island in the Galapagos after nearly two centuries.

On the surface it may not seem like we have much in common, but why do we have to seek surface-level likeness in everyone we look to as a friend? We both see the world through a critical but hopeful lens, and share the same dark, sarcastic sense of humor. Her unbridled joy reminds me that everything eventually will be okay, and she appreciates my cultural commentary on Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance. She told me I give her hope for the future, which is nice to hear on my hardest days. And who's gonna complain about a home-cooked meal that ends with cookies and ice cream every time?

Nyt 30 ja 88-vuotiaana Nina ja Carol ovat puhuneet Happy Podin Tamsin Selbyn siitÀ, miksi heidÀn liikkumansa on niin erilaista. Nina aloitti kertomaan, mitÀ se oli niin, kun tapahtui ensimmÀisen kerran. Se oli todella kiva. HÀn oli niin kiva. HÀn tuli. Se oli kylmÀ ulkopuolella. Se oli varmaan... Luulen, ettÀ se oli varmaan pÀivÀn jÀljellÀ tÀllÀ hetkellÀ. HÀn antoi minulle kartan, ja kartan kuitenkin sanoi, ettÀ minun löytÀmÀllÀ hÀnet oli paras keskustelu.

Sen jÀlkeen hÀn kysyi minua, jos olet koskaan kaupungissa tai kaupungin kaupungissa, ettÀ voit tulla ja saada kappaleen yhdessÀ. Ajattelin, ettÀ se oli todella kiva. HÀn sanoi, ettÀ olisin ollut hÀnen ikÀnsÀ, hÀn olisi ajatellut, ettÀ se olisi tyhjÀ yllÀtys. Mutta koska olin vanha, hÀn ajatteli, ettÀ se olisi todella tyhjÀ yllÀtys, jota se oli. Ja hÀn seurasi sen. Ja me tuli ystÀviÀ sen jÀlkeen.

Karol, mikÀ on sinun suosituksesi Ninaan kanssa? MinÀ rakastan menemÀÀn hÀnen konserttiinsa. HÀn on soittaja. HÀn soittaa farsiasta, suomalaisesta ja englantista. Haluan myös puhua hÀnelle. Haluan oppia siitÀ, mitÀ hÀn on tekemÀssÀ ja saada nÀkökulmaa maailmasta, jota en saa. He ovat varmasti paremmin positiivisia maailmassa kuin minÀ tÀllÀ hetkellÀ. Ja hÀn on paremmin arvokas.

Karo elÀÀ elÀmÀÀnsÀ erittÀin ambitiivisesti ja inspiroivasti. HÀnen sosiaalisen elÀmÀnsÀ, ystÀvyyksensÀ, miten hÀn kÀsittelee ihmisiÀ, kuinka aktiivinen hÀn on, kuinka paljon hÀn kÀy. Ja myös kaiken, mitÀ hÀn on tehty nuoremmissa vuosissa. Tulemaan New York Cityin yksi naisena.

50-luvulla. Ja mitÀ sinÀ rakennit itselleen ja kaikkea, mitÀ olet saavuttanut. Ja siksi mielestÀni on tÀrkeÀÀ, ettÀ ihmiset saavat nÀitÀ ympÀristöympÀristöjÀ, koska meillÀ on niin paljon oppia ihmisten kanssa, jotka ovat vanhemminkin kuin me. Olemme yleensÀ menossa ihmisiin, jotka ovat meidÀn aikana, haluamme avustusta.

I'm failing to remember that we're all kind of in the same boat. Why not go to somebody who has seen it, who's done it, and who can offer you insights that come from a world of experience? I'm starting to work on a children's book with one of my friends that's inspired by Carol and I's story, because I want younger people to see value in those who are older than them.

Niina, mitÀ sanoisit olevan Karolen tÀrkein opetuksen? Lopulta kaikki tulee olemaan oikein. ElÀmÀ tulee tapahtumaan niin kuin se tulee tapahtumaan. Jotkut ongelmat, joita teet, tai jotkut asiat, joita et tehdÀ niin kuin haluat ennen elÀmÀstÀsi, eivÀt tarkoita, onko sinulla onnistumista 50 vuotta myöhemmin.

She didn't do everything traditionally. She did it in the way that made sense for her and that brought her happiness. She also brings a lot of joy to others. And it reminded me that there are a lot of roads to joy, and I just have to decide which path will be mine. I would encourage people to make intergenerational friendships. There should be some sort of

YhteisössÀ ja jokaisessa yhteisössÀ, joissa nuoret tavoittavat vanhempia ihmisiÀ, koska se on erittÀin tÀrkeÀÀ, ettÀ on se liikkuvuus. Se saattaa muistaa aiempaa elÀmÀÀsi, se saattaa nÀhdÀ elÀmÀÀsi niin kuin olit nÀhnyt sen, kun olit vanhempi. Ja se on erittÀin ymmÀrrettÀvÀÀ.

I grew up in a culture that has a lot of reverence for people who are older than us and sees a lot of value in people who are older than us. And I think that has been a little bit lost on American society. I think what you really need is to see people as more than just their age. And finally, rather than speaking to me, we're speaking to each other. What would you say about how the last five years, how the other person has impacted you? Nina, do you want to go first?

MeidÀn ystÀvyys on saanut minulle mahdollisuuden vÀhentÀÀ ja pysyÀ ja olla kiitollinen. Luulen, ettÀ joka kerta kun tulen sinuun kotiin, tunnen sellaisen tunteen ja turvallisuuden ja rakastuksen. Ja se tuntuu hieman kuin pysyÀ, koska tunnen, ettÀ voin vain pysyÀ, jolla olen, kun olen ympÀri sinua. Ja en tarvitse soittaa.

I'd like to reiterate what she said, that she's brought a lot of joy into my life. And I just hope our friendship continues. It's a lot of fun. She's a really smart, amazing person and a great friend. I'm so happy to have met her and that she's accepted me into her life and into her circle of friends. I've introduced her to many of my friends. They love her. It's a great experience for older people and younger people to get together. I recommend it.

and coastal development. So, as Les Thea Ketopati reports, a group of young women decided to take action, planting new coral colonies on the seabed. They call themselves underwater gardeners. Working together, they collect broken coral fragments that can still grow and then tie them onto metal frames, which they then place on the sandy patches of ocean floor where the reef won't strive.

Dila is one of the volunteers. Seeing the changes in growth of the coral from when we first transplanted it until it grows gives us a sense of pride, especially for us women who can be directly involved and work hands-on in the field. Divers must carry heavy oxygen tanks, descend in currents, and spend hours underwater securing fragile fragments, as another volunteer, Iam, explains.

It's actually not that difficult. We are already used to carrying tags, they're not too heavy. Collecting coral fragments and tying them underwater are still relatively easy for us to do. Mudasir Zainudin, a conservation activist, also promotes reef recovery through a program he calls Coral Adoption, inviting the public to participate by supporting coral planting and monitoring its progress over time.

Divers working underwater have spread widely on social media. Conservation groups say women often play a key role in spreading environmental messages because audiences respond strongly to their storytelling and visuals. Despite restoration work, reef health across the region remains fragile. Safyudin Yusuf from Hasanudin University studies local reef and says that thriving coral cover is now difficult to find.
