Episode 106: Spezi Socks
On the show this week
It’s only bloody Christmas! We bring you a bumper festive episode, as we discuss secret recipes, fun socks, and the art of decorating a Christmas tree. Dili shares her Christmas plans, and her opinions on Peppa Pig toys, while Nic recaps the end of his Deutscher Bier Pokal competition.
Since both Dili and Nic live in states that have ended mask requirement on public transport, it gives us a chance to discuss these changes, and the sudden, and not disconnected arrival of an unprecedented wave of flu, cold and general sickness in Bavaria. Is freedom really coughing in someone’s face on the Ubahn?
Since it’s the season of gift giving, we share our thought on present buying, whether expensive gifts are really better, and what gift giving says about a person. We finish with chat about Nic’s first Christmas in Germany.
