Treasure House of the Seto Inland Sea: Honjima

Honjima is one of the Shiwaku group of islands in the Seto Inland Sea, between Japan's mainland Honshu and Shikoku. It lies off the beaten track, but there's plenty to see there. Although it is a small island with a circumference of only 16 kilometers, Honjima boasts numerous temples, shrines and towns with beautiful traditional architecture. In ancient times, the islanders were skilled navigators who knew their way through the treacherous waters of the Inland Sea. They later turned their nautical skills to maritime trade, gaining them great wealth. Radio DJ Chris Glenn is a history enthusiast. On this edition of "journeys in japan", he explores the history and culture of Honjima and discovers handsome townscapes that have changed little for more than a century.

Beyond the Gates

Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
