    Episode 15 - Black Future Month

    As Black History Month draws to a close, we're happy to have Anthony Baggette join us for a discussion about the Black experience in Berlin. Anthony is a jazz poet and basketball coach who's lived in Berlin for over four decades. He's a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Black life in Germany and Europe, and he's fully committed to living unapologetically Black. In this conversation, we talk about his fight for Black liberation and his adventures (and misadventures) in the city. The discussion was long and educational, and sadly had to be shortened.

    Episode 14 - A New Yorker in Berlin

    Anne Chang didn't have to move to Berlin to become a DJ. She was already a successful one who booked regular gigs in New York City and beyond. What started out as a fun Berlin getaway unexpectedly turned into love  — both for the city and for her soon-to-be German partner. The new relationship meant frequent trips across the Atlantic and the decision to settle in Berlin at some point in the near future. Anne joined us in the studio to talk about living between two cities, the U.S. vs Europe, and our culture’s tragic (and never ending) quest to become hotter and richer. You can find Anne at instagram.com/chopstixmami. Being Berlin is brought to you by Bands and hosted by Mak Matan.

    Episode 12 - All About the Berlinale

    Mariëtte Rissenbeek is a Dutch film producer and longtime resident (and lover) of Berlin. She's also the Executive Director of the Berlin International Film Festival, which is more commonly known as the Berlinale. Mariëtte is the first woman to ever hold the position and was appointed to it in 2019. The Covid-19 pandemic was a heavy cloud over the last two festivals and this year will hopefully usher in a return to "normalcy". Mariëtte speaks to us about her career, the world of German cinema, and the magic of running one of the world's most important film events. Being Berlin is brought to you by Bands and hosted by Mak Matan. To learn more, visit bandsberlin.com.  Follow Being Berlin at instagram.com/beingberlinpod.
