Episode 219: Quadrell Hell

Despite the fact we’ve only recorded the podcast in the same room once in 219 episodes, that doesn’t mean we should be lax on health and safety. That’s why we sent Nic on some training over the weekend, to the Feuerwehrerlebniswelt in Augsburg. We find out whether he actually learnt anything, aside from how to scare the other parents.

From firefighting, we return to class conscious grub, after discovering that Krapfen (doughnuts) can say a lot about a person’s social class last week. We wonder what Schnitzel says about social class, and argue over whether chicken is or isn’t the worst meat. We also discuss Geordie musician Sam Fender and his upcoming concert in Munich.

We finish things off with a final look at the federal election in Germany, the chaos caused by JD Vance’s speech to the EU, and try and work out what on earth a Quadrell might be.
