    #055: You say goodbye, we say hello! A tête-à-tête with Sarah

    Today's episode finds us paranoid, hopeful, and delusional (our newest definition for PhD!) with Sarah Faber, who joined the department for the summer term as a senior lecturer. We talk about how Sarah got started in academia and how game studies have expanded her academic profile along with the study of the fantastic (fantastic, absolutely fantastic!). We close out the episode with some great book recommendations--we're going to wait until Sarah's book is finished though--tune in to hear more about her. Contact us at ⁠rockmyworldsofenglish@aau.at⁠ to share ideas, volunteer for an interview, or proffe(sso)r another way to define Ph.D. Book recommendations: Emily Wilde - Compendium of Lost TalesKaty Brent - How to Kill Men and Get Away With ItSarah Faber & Kerstin-Anja Münderlein - Rethinking Gothic Transgressions of Gender and Sexuality Blake Shedd, host Tamara Urach, host Dr. Sarah Faber, guest Addendum: Sarah's Mum’s Crumb Cake (Streuselkuchen) For the dough: 130 g butter 80 g sugar 250 g flour 1 tsp baking powder 6 tbsp water Fruit of your choice For the crumble topping: 50 g butter 50 g sugar 100 g flour Instructions Prepare the dough: Cream together the sugar and butter. Stir in the flour and baking powder. Add the water gradually until the dough reaches a workable consistency. Prepare the pan: Transfer the dough to a greased round cake pan, springform pan, or a similar baking dish. You can also line the pan with parchment paper. Add the fruit: Spread your chosen fruit evenly over the dough. Make the crumble topping: Mix the butter, sugar, and flour together. At first it may seem like the mixture won’t come together—this is normal. Keep mixing. If necessary, add a very small amount of water (about 1 tablespoon). Bake: Bake at 175°C (350°F) for about 50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a wooden skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Variation --> For a crisp apple crumb cake, use the same mixture as the crumble topping for the base instead of making a separate dough.
