#rbnews international show - 13 October 2012

In the third #rbnews international show of this season, we discussed Angela Merkel's visit to Greece and the police operation it entailed, Golden Dawn's antics in parliament and in front of the Chytirio theatre (see more here and here) and the publication of the IMF report detailing the shortcomings of austerity policies on the day it was made official that unemployment in Greece is above 25%.
Our guest this week was the editor-in-chief of the English-language version of Kathimerini newspaper, Nikos Konstantaras. You can follow Nikos on Twitter @nkonstan.
The podcast is available after the jump.





The pieces of music you can hear are The Rolling Stones' Angie, Black Lips' Bad Kids, the theme music from the movie Jesus of Nazareth, and The Isley Brothers' Fight the Power.

@krotkie also sent us two brief dispatches from Brussels, which you can listen to below.
