Why do we climb mountains? To conquer? To escape? To listen—to something greater than ourselves?
This week, VoG’s English-language show “Infinitely Curious” with Katerina Batzaki takes you to the thin air and thick silences of Earth’s highest peaks. From Everest to K2, from triumph to tragedy, we explore the raw human drive to ascend—and what it costs to touch the sky.
You’ll hear:
— The final voice of legendary Greek climber Antonis Sykaris, recorded atop Dhaulagiri — A heart-rending tribute from his wife, Popi Poulopoulou
— Why Everest is more dangerous than ever
— The untold lives of Sherpas, including one who carried a book of poetry to the summit
— And reflections from climbing legends like Reinhold Messner and Courtney Reardon
Expect awe, sorrow, inspiration—and a soundtrack to match the altitude.
Because sometimes the real summit… is within.
Tune in this Sunday at 11:00 a.m. on ERT’s Voice of Greece. And stay—Infinitely Curious.
