32: Translation Station ft. Kevin Rothrock & Isaac Wheeler
This week we discuss the theory and daily practice of translation, joined by two honored guests and translators.
Our first guest is Kevin Rothrock, Senior Editor and Translator at Meduza in English, who tells us about his daily work bringing independent Russian news to English speakers, and how to stealthily pick fights on Twitter.
Our second guest is Isaac Stackhouse Wheeler, professional independent translator of both Russian and Ukrainian poetry and prose, who tells us, among many other things, what the heck an intuitive door handle has to do with translation.
You can find Kevin on Twitter @KevinRothrock and on his podcast The Russia Guy, wherever you listen to podcasts
You can find Isaac on Twitter @ThreeNamesTrans and on his podcast Black Box Poetry, wherever you listen to podcasts
