#KultAmerica #RyanSocashWhy the tallest tower on earth collapsed | The Warsaw Radio Mast [Kult America]Kult America2022-03-19 | The Warsaw Radio Mast (Polish: Maszt radiowy w Konstantynowie) was a radio mast located near Gąbin, Poland, and the world's tallest structure at 646.38 metres (2,120.7 ft) from 1974 until its collapse on 8 August 1991.Designed by Jan Polak, and one of the last radio masts built under Communist rule, the mast was conceived for height and ability to broadcast the "propaganda of the successes" to remote areas such as Antarctica. It was the third tallest structure ever built, being surpassed as the tallest by the Burj Khalifa tower in the United Arab Emirates in 2009 and Merdeka 118 tower in Malaysia in 2022. Designed by Jan Polak, its construction started in July 1970, was completed on 18 May 1974, and its transmitter entered regular service on 22 July of that year. The opening of the mast was met with extensive celebration and news coverage by the Polish Film Chronicle.The tower was used by Warsaw Radio-Television (Centrum Radiowo-Telewizyjne) for longwave radio broadcasting on a frequency of AM-LW (long wave) 227 kHz before 1 February 1988 and 225 kHz afterwards.[6] Its base was 115.2 metres (378 ft) above sea level. Because a voltage of 120 kV existed between the mast and ground, it stood on a 2-metre (6.6 ft)-high insulator. It operated as a mast radiator (half-wave radiator), so its height was chosen in order to function as a half-wavelength antenna at its broadcasting frequency. The signals from its 2 MW transmitters could be received across essentially the entire globe. The Warsaw Radio Mast's weight was debated; Polish sources claimed 420 tonnes (930,000 lb).[1] The mast was designed for national pride, mainly because of the height of the mast, which made it the tallest structure in the world, surpassing the KVLY-TV mast in Blanchard, North Dakota. It was also designed to broadcast the "propaganda of the successes." However, an unintended effect of the mast's height was that the "officially non-existent Poles of the east" could tune in to Polish radio broadcasts, including those in remote places such as Antarctica. The mast was so powerful that the waves of Polish Radio Programme 1 were received in areas far from the Polish mainland such as Canada and the United States.

In Podkarpackie, I have seen innovation beyond my wildest imagination and enjoyed the type of wild nature that seems to be from a fantasy. I’d like to thank the administration of Podkarpackie and all who we met along the road for helping us open so many doors and make this deeply personal series a possibility.

#KultAmerica #RyanSocashWhat Makes You Polish? 🇵🇱 [Kult America]Kult America2019-07-31 | For all of my life I've been curious about heritage and identity, especially as it pertains to my own family.

#KultAmerica #RyanSocash #Podkarpackie #Polonia #PolishWhy I Quit Social Media [Kult America]Kult America2019-07-04 | The average internet user spends about 24 hours of their week online, which is an absurd amount of time. In that same amount of time I road horses in Lesko, went bobsledding in Przemyśl, cycled on the Green Velo trail, enjoyed zip lining near Rzeszow, sailed in Solina, peddled train bikes in Bieszczady, and rafted in Sanok. I’m not passing judgement for being online, I just think its worth reconsidering ones priorities given the fact that life is so short. When I’m not on my computer, I’m probably in Podkarpackie :)

#KultAmerica #RyanSocashWhy I Left America for Poland #2 [Kult America]Kult America2019-06-04 | After this life changing experience at the Skansen in Sanok, I have decided that for the next half year I will be focusing on Podkarpackie once again, one video every month!
Context: A few years back I had created a video titled "Why I Left America for Poland", simply to answer the most popular question that Kult America viewers had asked me. Not realising that the video would gain such massive viewership, I have always felt uneasy about failing to answer that question in the most basic way - that Poland is where my ancestors are from! Living here and reconnecting with my heritage has been one of the most special things in my life so I'd like to address the topic once and for all! This is not just my story, this is everyones story...
Podkarpackie is in southeastern Poland and it's one of the most wooded Polish voivodeships. In the heart of Podkarpackie there is a charming town named Sanok, at the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains and it has the first and the biggest open-air museums in Poland - the Rural Architecture Museum of Sanok.

Whats-more, huge thanks to KSU for letting us making this video - I am an absolute fan so this was an honour for us!
Mountains up to the sky, And scream of verdancy Field road among flowers And broken cross Stream hidden in shadow And wild orchard Old Orthodox church under larch, And broken bell Overgrown cementery On it wild elderberries How many tears and pain, How much of human blood Moon above Otryt Sky full of stars Gray dormouses are dancing San makes us fall asleep.
Those just are Those are just my Bieszczady Those just are Those are just my Bieszczady
Overgrown with Alder Fields of old village Who has it plown, who has it sowed Nobody remebers Creak of dead Spruces It's wooden cry World's ending in Sokoliki Further's only forest Wires on the border Dividing nations two Divides wall of hate And scares me San is so shallow Where Beniowa shore Divides people, divides thoughts Scary is his wrath
Those just are Those are just my Bieszczady Those just are Those are just my Bieszczady
Góry aż do nieba I zieleni krzyk Polna droga pośród kwiatów I złamany krzyż Strumień skryty w mroku I zdziczały sad Stara cerkiew pod modrzewiem I pęknięty dzwon Zarośnięty cmentarz Na nim dzikie bzy Ile łez i ile krzywdy Ile ludzkiej krwi Księżyc nad Otrytem Niebo pełne gwiazd Tańczą szare popielice San usypia nas
To właśnie są (x3) To właśnie moje Bieszczady To właśnie są (x3) To właśnie moje Bieszczady
Zarośnięte olchą Pola dawnej wsi Kto je orał, kto je zasiał Nie pamięta nikt Skrzypią martwe świerki To drewniany płacz Świat się kończy w Sokolikach Dalej tylko las Druty na granicy Dzielą nacje dwie Dzieli ściana nienawiści I przeraża mnie San jest taki płytki Gdzie Beniowej brzeg Dzieli ludzi, dzieli myśli Straszny jego gniew

#KultAmerica #RyanSocash#Podkarpackie #Bieszczady #PolandWarning to American Expats [Kult America]Kult America2018-10-16 | After living in Europe for over a decade, I have recently learned about the harsh legal reality of being American that many people overlook. I think its critical that anyone else who is potentially in the same situation be informed of their obligations and seek council. I am not a lawyer and this video does not constitute legal advice, just an overview on my story.

#KultAmerica #RyanSocashWhy do business in Poland? [Kult America]Kult America2018-09-27 | People often ask me how to survive professionally in Poland, and I normally tell them that people who are willing to work hard and learn the language have many opportunities here. However, I wanted to take a closer look at the possibilities, so I traveled to the less obvious region of Podkarpackie, with an emerging economy and industrious history that far exceeded my imagination. To see why people do business in Poland.

#KultAmerica #RyanSocashWhy Do Poles Love Football? [Kult America]Kult America2018-06-22 | Asking Robert Lewandowski why Poles love football seemed like an impossible concept but on todays episode of Kult America in conducting a general street survey on the topic I do exactly that - after taking an amazing trip to the Podkarpackie Voivodeship where I had the pleasure of staying in Poland's most prestigious hotel Arłamow with the national team as they prepared for the world cup.
#KultAmerica #RyanSocashFinding My Lost Polish Family [Kult America]Kult America2018-06-05 | Growing up in America I always identified myself as “Half Polish”, this was a normal part of my identity as my Great Grandmother sent packages containing my childhood clothing to relatives in Poland. When she passed away the contact stopped and I wondered desperately who she had been in touch with on the other side, what family members I might have. So I composed a family tree and did as much research as I could before finally having the amazing opportunity of flying from Newark NJ to Rzeszów on LOT Polish airlines to visit the part of Poland where my living relatives still live. The beautiful village located in the Podkarpackie region is my family’s history, the place responsible for the existence of everyone I love. This was the most meaningful trip of my life and for anyone of Polish heritage, I’d insist you take the time to discover your own ancestry in the same way.

#KultAmerica #RyanSocashSolidarity of Polish Values [Kult America]Kult America2018-04-17 | According to some, Poland is regarded as “the Texas of Europe”. Unwilling to conform with what is considered by the citizens to be unrighteous. Poles have demonstrated this many times throughout history - some times at great controversy and astonishingly as a result the Republic of Poland exists today. The solidarity movement and abolishment of communism might be my favorite example of Polish community values. Hence on today’s episode of Kult America I visit the places and people of Solidarity- AKA - Niezależny Samorządny Związek Zawodowy „Solidarność”.

Along the way we visited the largest Orthodox Church in Poland, Góra Grabarka, Białowieża which is one of the most ancient forests in Europe, an ethnically Belorussian village in Poland, the place where the Polish Lithuanian commonwealth was ratified, and a scary road along the bug river.

#KultAmerica #RyanSocashStanding in the geographical centre of Europe [Kult America]Kult America2018-01-09 | Note to viewer: The horrific tragedy of Blessed Jerzy Popiełuszko gave me a far deeper understanding of Polish history. I believe people in Europe must take these stories into consideration before passing any judgment on our domestic politics. Those brutal images must be known.
For ages I've been planing to visit the town of Suchowola, one of the places claiming to be the geographical centre point of Europe. I was moved by the contrasts of people I met and ultimately concluded that in the scope of history it is also a very complicated place to be.
