In this episode, we are tabling “This fortnight in history,” and starting with a summary from Günther on the similarities of contemporary Russian and WWII German propaganda.

The leading article for this episode came from the Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2022/02/24/hitler-czechoslovakia-sudeten-putin-ukraine/

After this perspective, the trio of Günther, Audra, and special guest Erin Hart, the GAI’s director of communications and development, chat about our favorite things from D-A-CH. The three discuss types of Knödel, drones getting stuck in trees, and Günther makes his case for loving grammar.
