The Outsiders' Report

By: The Outsiders' Report
  • Summary

  • The Outsiders’ Report is a podcast, conceived and created by Gaia Lamperti, Gian Matteo Sacchetti, Stefano Fasano and Clizia Sala.

    The idea behind it is to keep up to date with the world, looking at the dark side of the news – or talking about the more under the radar stories, if you prefer.

    In our show, you will find only those stories you’d normally need time, patience and interest to scout from the dark corners of your favourite online magazine.

    As our journalistic education got pretty much busted by now - as the biggest pandemic of the century spreads across the world, and how lucky we are -, we decided to use our unfinished, unpolished and unchecked skills to bring you stories that will make you raise an eyebrow in the worst-case scenario.

    Ideally, we would have you smashing that like button and sharing our show with your friends.

    But we guess trust must be earned, so… start listening to us every week, from the dark dusty corners of the news.

  • EP 6 - The race to trace
    May 3 2020

    Tracking apps could solve the coronavirus crisis, but are we ready to put our privacy at stake? 

    Today we will discuss the South Korean approach and the challenges of using intrusive technology when it comes to public health. 

    We are also talking about the pros and cons of keeping children home from school, and how the Muslim community is coping with Ramadan under lockdown. 

    Finally, the latest victim of Covid-19? Belgian fries.

  • EP 5 - It's an anti-vaxxer's world
    Apr 26 2020

    Anti-vaxxers' dream has finally come true: a world without a vaccine is finally here.

    This week we have them on our top story, and how're they dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic.

    Also, have you noticed how the lockdown is affecting your 'need for perfection'? If that's the case, you are not alone - we talk about that too.

    And, as Europe prepares to enter the second phase of the lockdown, we are going to see all the uncertainties that this 'new normality' entails, especially for the hospitality industry.

  • EP 4 - Covid protection is a men's business
    Apr 18 2020

    Who runs Covid? Girls! Then why don't they get tailored protection? 

    In this episode, we see how women, the vast majority of frontline workers during the outbreak, are finding personal protective equipment (PPE) neither comfortable nor safe. 

    We will also guide you through a second ongoing pandemic, the invasion of locusts attacking crops across East Africa, and dig into your weirdest coronavirus anxiety-induced dreams. 

    If you are now getting worried that not even sleep will give you respite from the virus, watch professional wrestling to put your mind off - the US has officially declared WWE an essential service. Priorities, we guess.
