Megan's Megacan

This week, Konrad explains what he saw and heard at the trials of Bruno D., former guard at the Stutthof concentration camp, and Stephan B., would-be far-right terrorist of Halle.

No Megan's Megacan this week we're afraid - instead here's an extended interview from Konrad's (AKA Ben's) upcoming film about collapse, called "We're All Going To Die". It's a talk from October 2019 with conservation biologist Guy McPherson, who says human life will be extinct by 2026. He hopes he's wrong, obviously, but that's not the point. The point is, what do you do with that knowledge?

On this week's show, corona in Neukölln, a good old CDU corruption scandal, we wonder why Trump has decided to weaken the US militarily, and a murder in the Tiergarten.

This week's Megacan - should Germany remove the word "race" from its constitution? What happened in Dessau 20 years ago and why you should care - and what did they inscribe on the cross on the Schloss again?

On this week's show - Megan describes her experiences at the Black Lives Matter demo in Berlin, which just became the first German state to pass an anti-discrimination law - not that the police unions think they have a problem. Also, why won't the German government count racial profiling cases?

Maybe the Bild newspaper is a cancer poisoning our minds, which is shame because we've found a better way to do that, thanks to our Polish pals: Bisongrass vodka with apple soda. Delicious! Also, the stats say that lockdown is making everyone more depressed - but also maybe less depressed, because people are complicated and stats don't always help (yeah, Bild?). Meanwhile Berlin finds a new way to ignore its colonial legacy. Enjoy!

On this week's sharp and focussed half-hour of well-researched information, a rundown of Berlin's latest lockdown plans, some chat about Germany's basic pension plans, and trouble at the meatpacking plant. Not all the facts may be accurate. Honestly if it's that important go outside and find out for yourselves.

And yet the megas runneth aplenty! On this week's show: Germany's infection rate has gone up, the football is coming back, but at least there'll be money for new cars. Also some semi-good news about the conversion therapy. Megacan!

Why does Germany let the US drone people to death at Ramstein (with one M), while still pursing its lips and making disapproving noises? Meanwhile Dr. Drosten is unhappy with us all going to Einkaufsmalls, and Markus Söder the Bavarian bandit jockeys for position.

Just because there's a deadly pandemic sweeping through the population, doesn't mean German teenagers shouldn't be in school doing five hours of exams. That's what Merkel says anyway, and even Armin Laschet thinks she's being too soft.
