It's a German news podcast in English, because the German news is hard enough without it being all in German. Also involves canned cocktails. Not massive cans.
The regular Megacans will always be free, but every now and then we'll do a special pod for subscribers - thanks so much for your support! https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/megans-megacan/subscribe

Germany's Day In The Dock
Germany has been in The Hague this week defending itself from accusations of aiding genocide — hands down winning this month's "Not A Great Look" award for countries with a history of genocide. Speaking of war crimes, freelance journalist Cathrin is on had to tell Megan and Konrad how Germany's policy on Syrian passports is helping the Assad regime — and don't piss off Botswana unless you want 20,000 elephants riding over the Alps. Cheers!

Schrödinger's Fence (Around Görlitzer Park)
The birds are singing, the blossoms are blooming, the eggs are safely hidden – it's springtime at Megacan Towers and Megan has some sparkling springtime tips for the long weekend. But unfortunately, there's some news to get through before that: How do you get a tram through a fence, driving tests for senior citizens, football news, and whatever the fuck Kai Wegner has been up to this time. Mahlzeit!

Hands Off Our Forest, Elon
Good news and bad news, listeners: Berlin might be able to force thousands of fancy holiday flats back onto the rental market, thanks to a good court ruling for once. The bad news is that Brandenburg is probably about to let Mr Muskness clear a forest so that he can build a million electric cars. Plus Tesla robot coffee's shit. Hooray!

An Éclair At The Berlinale
Endlich! Germany legalizes cannabis (a little bit, as long as you join a Verein), then has a collective meltdown trying to decide which half of a film-making team you're allowed to clap, while Konrad fatally leaves it far too late in his megacan to explain the democratic principles underpinning the Federal Constitutional Court. All rise!

Dieselgate, Nuclear Bombs, And Frights in Greiz
Fresh from a round of dental torture, Konrad visits the picturesque medieval town of Greiz, Thüringen, where a lady in a castle has decided that asylum-seekers have to do their shopping in the shops she likes. Plus, should there be EU nuclear bombs? And slightly new news from the court cases against Volkswagen and its ex-CEO Martin Winterkorn. Hey nonny nonny!

Germany And Its Half-Learned Lessons (Also: Join A Union!)
Konrad's back — from the frying pan of 90-degree humidity into the fryer of German politics. Luckily, Megan's here to untangle the hypocrisy and moral muddles that the country has been mired in while Konrad's been away. Also, ex-watchman Hans-Georg Maaßen gets watched and what's with Germany's new enthusiasm for strikes? Prost!
