All tagged Sealed Knot
It’s a race against time to record the podcast this week as Nic’s access to the internet could be shut-off at any moment by the owners of a Bavarian guest house he’s staying in. No matter, Dili has important updates on her adopted pigeon family, Nic tells us about battles in Wales, we discuss the anti-Semitism scandal in the Bavarian government, and we ask if we need more pirates in the Bundestag.
Nic details his involvement in another battle reenactment, while Dili wonders how he’ll get his pike through airport security. We look ahead to cannabis reform, a new Self-ID Law and Dual Nationality Law all being voted on by the German government. Trigger Warnings are coming to German TV, and it’s that time of the year again as we consider the candidates for the German Youth Word of the Year.
Simon very much enjoys the summer camp feel to this week’s show as Nic commandeers his niece and nephew’s bunk bed for the record. The new environment blends nicely with Nic’s new sultry deep voice, a hard won benefit after a weekend spent living in the 17th century with the Sealed Knot. What’s it like to come face to face with a musket block and live to tell the tale?
We’re bringing you something a bit different this week. We’ve been in our secret audio vaults and discovered some lost segments from previous episodes. What is Nic’s weird hobby and why is it more fun than you might think? Simon brings us the story of one German’s rubbish hobby, and why it might require most of us to build an extension on our homes. We finish the show with a look at the best football team names from Germany’s lower tiers and ask why calling your team Porndorf might lead to more than a few questions.
