Dili fights an 8-year old for a seat on a train, which leads to a chat about confronting unruly kids, Nic takes a trip to another Bavarian Volksfest, and we worry about an invasion of hornets. We also turn our attention to the recent electoral success of the AfD in Thuringia, and Nic tries to teach Dili about EURO 2024, starting with naming the tournament mascot.
After a week off, Dili is back in the co-host hot seat, and comes equipped with questions about Nic’s adventures on St Patrick’s Day. We tackle the thorny issue of Wahlrechtsreform after the German government voted to change the current election system, and we finish on the announcement that one of Germany’s largest department store groups is planning to close stores across the country.
It’s nice that after all this time, Germany still has the capacity to surprise, as Dili discovers when she learns something new about her washing machine, and German, that’s been staring her in the face for 12 years. This week we discuss what we still find odd about Germany, the return of Politischer Aschermittwoch, and our love/hate relationship with Deutsche Bahn.
