The podcast 'Cabinet Conversations' is hosted by cultural manager and communications specialist Julijus Grickevičius, who invites a range of scholars from the Lithuanian Institute of History to discuss their research and insights. Each episode features a different historian, addressing topics from the Golden Age of Vilnius to complaints during the Soviet occupation, as well as the role of historians in contemporary society and the concept of egodocumentation.

The impetus behind this podcast is to shed light on the vital and unique research conducted by Lithuanian historians, which significantly changes our understanding of the past and fulfills society's desire to learn more about their history. Grickevičius emphasizes that the general public is only exposed to a fraction of these valuable studies and discoveries, which often remain confined to academic circles. The podcast aims to bridge this gap by providing an audio platform for historians to share their findings and engage with a broader audience.

Through 'Cabinet Conversations,' listeners can gain insights into the ongoing historical discourse in Lithuania. The title reflects the intention to make these academic discussions accessible and relatable, demonstrating that history holds relevance beyond the walls of academia. The series promises not only to educate but also to provoke conversations on the importance of history in understanding contemporary issues.
