  • Nachrichten für uns!

    Nachrichten und Gespräche, die für uns „im Süden“ relevant sind. Und dazu interessant für mich als Linguist zu sehen, wie man zwischen den Sprachen code-switcht. Höre ich immer gern zu.

  • Committed to the neutering of Germany

    This podcast seeks to exploit and disgrace Germany. It does not celebrate the great history behind the German people and nation. Another typical, fearful, self loathing podcast. Cowardly and sad.

  • It's not the best option

    The sounds are often not from a native speaker and some of the topics are weird and sound unnatural.

Die Entscheidung kam spontan, geboren aus dem Wunsch, dem Krieg und den Nachkriegsproblemen zu entkommen, und wurde durch das Beispiel eines Freundes bestärkt; es gab einen Handschlag als Ehrenwort, der die Verbindlichkeit der Entscheidung unterstrich.
