 Euroquest
is Radio
Netherlands' weekly English language broadcast designed for
listeners looking to expand their knowledge and understanding of
world politics and culture. EuroQuest host Jonathan Groubert brings
public radio listeners a light and wide-ranging view of topics each
week spanning Europe and crossing the boundaries of government, art
and music, leisure, food and wine, the environment, health, science,
and technology. Drawing on Radio Netherlands' network of reporters
around the world, Groubert's accessible and engaging style tends
toward the quirkier sides of life outside the United States.
The
rundown of a typical program might include a report on ethnic
tensions in Holland, a dispatch from France about the rebirth of the
legendary Citroën 2CV, and a story from high in the Alps about the
declining population of St. Bernards that were once a symbol of the
region. EuroQuest paints a vivid picture of life on the continent,
and brings to life stories that you simply won’t hear elsewhere.
Groubert, is a
Brooklyn, NY native who's been living in Amsterdam for 12 years and
producing for Radio Netherlands since 1992. After getting his degree
in secondary education and theater at the State University of New
York at New Paltz, Groubert headed for the open airwaves of Europe,
and now brings his unique view of the world to his native citizens
back home. In addition to his weekly hosting stint, Groubert is a
columnist for Radio Netherlands online, has recently completed a
Masters in European Communications, enjoys music and preparing
Indian food, when not keeping his two-year-old son entertained.
