Refreshment Front – Season 3
Episodes
Sleep
To prevent anyone from falling asleep, they tackled sleep. They learned about various sleep disorders, asked uncomfortable questions to the sleepwalker, checked what kind of drivers we are when we stay up all night, busted numerous myths, and, among other things, found that young people really do need more sleep.
Swearing
Many have swear words and dog-words on their tongues like some kind of mascara. But why and when do we use swear words, which some call 'bad words'? What do swear words tell us about a society, how have they changed throughout history, and how many swear words do we have in the Slovenian language? These are just some of the questions that will be answered in this week's Refreshment Front.
Influencers
Many people live their lives online and often have a strong influence on many people who follow what's happening online. These people are commonly known as influencers. But who is an influencer anyway, does it matter how many followers they have, or is it more about the content they publish? How is a Twitter influencer different from an Instagram influencer? Should we believe influencers at all? More in this week's Refreshment Front.
Voting Rights
This week's Refreshment Front may also be of interest to young people who have not been interested in politics. Politics and the impact it has on them can start at school, when they elect class presidents, when they take their initiatives to student representatives, or when they seek an answer to the question of how to feel like a European citizen.
Infatuation
Butterflies in the stomach, sweaty hands, dilated pupils, a faster heartbeat - these are all symptoms familiar to lovers. But what does it mean to be in love, can we initiate falling in love ourselves, does falling in love always turn into love, how do young lovers meet today... are just a few of the questions we will be looking for answers to in this week's Refreshment Front.
How to Travel Cheap
The summer holidays are slowly approaching and in the last show of the spring season, the Refreshment Front will gather experiences and tips for all young people who want to see as much as possible for as little as possible. How to choose the best means of transport, where to stay, how to volunteer, what opportunities to travel the European Commission offers for young people turning 18... are just some of the questions they will be looking for answers to.
Geek Culture
In the new episode, the creators of the Refreshment Front have tackled geek culture. Who are geeks and why do adults get excited about superheroes? Why are superheroes, who often first appear in comics and later continue their journey in film, becoming so popular again that we are devoting conventions such as On the Edge of Invisibility to them? More in this week's Refreshment Front.
Virginity
In this week's Refreshment Front, they will talk about virginity, the expectations related to first sex, the importance for young people of the milestone of having sex for the first time and the loss of virginity, what influences young people's sexuality, and where young people today are looking for information about sexuality.
Fake News
In all the flood of information in the traditional media and on social networks, today we are often confronted with information that is not true. Is it a lie, fake news or disinformation? Who is to blame for the spread of such information and how can we identify it ourselves? This time on the Refreshment Front.
Trap
Many people answer the question of whether they listen to trap music by asking what it is. But music connoisseurs have been following this sub-genre of rap for years. In this week's Refreshment Front, we'll talk about where and when trap came about, what characterises it and what the current Slovenian trap scene is like.
Drugs
Drugs will be the focus of this week's Refreshment Front. They will examine how alcohol, the most common and most abused drug in our environment, affects our bodies and, with the help of experts, answer many questions about the drugs on the market, their effects and appropriate prevention.
Money
Although many people would probably expect the Refreshment Front to be linked to the holidays season, this will only be partly true. The creators of the show will not be counting gifts, but money. They will be looking at whether we will soon really be living in cashless societies, checking out what cryptocurrencies are and gathering a whole bunch of tips on how to handle money responsibly.
