Heidi is a politician and chairwoman of the Left Party. Currently, she is the most popular politician in the country – even though or perhaps because she is the face of the Left. I wanted to know from her how she is doing with the current Heidi hype, what challenges it brings for her, but also for her party, and where she locates herself in the major left-wing issues. We talk about socialism and anti-capitalism, but also about Heidi's pet topics such as women's health, youth work and social justice.

Martyna is an inequality researcher and author. I was thrilled to read her book "Unearned Inequality" and invited her. I wanted to know from her how inequality in Germany, but also worldwide, can be described in numbers; why we have gone from a meritocracy to an inheritance society and what personal reasons lie behind her choosing inequality as a field of research. We talk about democracy, participatory socialism, privileges, success, education and the richest Germans.

Woop! Woop! We've had 100+ days of Trump and 50+ days of Merz...time for an extensive conversation with Albrecht von Lucke. Before my podcast summer break, I set off for the Blätter editorial office to talk about the death of truth and the triumph of evil with Albrecht, and what can I say, it gets controversial. ;-) Enjoy!

Gregor is an AI expert, author, speaker, and podcaster. As host of "The AI Podcast," he and his colleagues explore all sorts of questions and the latest developments in artificial intelligence. His newsletter is one of my absolute favorite newsletters, mainly because it feels like he wrote it himself and it's not AI-generated. I wanted to know from Gregor why it's important that we understand AI correctly – and how we can best achieve that. This episode is a small AI masterclass and I learned a lot from it. It's about the strengths and weaknesses of AI, the (right) language, our own intelligence and humanity, and we also talk about fears regarding technological developments.

This episode deals with suicide and racism. October 2023: Eleven-year-old Mathilda lives with her mother, Anja, in a small apartment in Berlin-Köpenick. On the outside, their life seems quiet, almost inconspicuous – but behind the curtains, a dangerous dynamic is growing. Between religious zeal, fear, and dependence, Mathilda's world becomes smaller and smaller. When the family finally makes a fateful decision, everything ends in a tragedy that shakes all of Berlin. In this episode of "Mordlust – Crimes and Their Backgrounds," we tell the story of a girl who never had a real chance at her own life – and ask how care and faith can turn into deadly control. **Credit** Producers/Hosts: Paulina Krasa, Laura Wohlers Editors: Paulina Krasa, Laura Wohlers, Simon Garschhammer Editing: Pauline Korb Legal Approval: Abel und Kollegen (Special thanks to Jenni Roth from Zeit, who helped us a lot with the research) **Sources (Selection)** Zeit: Joint Death Berliner Kurier: Bloody Family Drama rbb24: Process Report **Partner of the Episode** Would you like to learn more about our advertising partners?

Jahrelang wird die kleine Tea von ihrem Onkel missbraucht – und schließlich getötet. Wie kann das Leben für ihre Mutter und ihre Schwester danach weitergehen?

Philip and I checked in again and it's (mainly) about compassion. We asked ourselves why one feels more compassion for some people than for others and how this feeling is hierarchized. We also talk about empathy, work, enlightenment, and mattresses.

Anja Reschke is one of Germany's most well-known journalists. She has hosted the political magazine Panorama for 24 years and her own format Reschke Fernsehen since 2023. In 2015, she was named Journalist of the Year – after calling for the "uprising of the decent" in her Tagesthemen commentary that went viral. In this episode, we talk live in front of an audience in Hamburg about her path into journalism and her personal motivation. It's about the role of the media today, especially that of public broadcasting. We talk about justice, attitude and the courage to get involved.

Arun is excited: For the second-grader from Konstanz, swimming lessons are on the schedule for the first time today. But what is supposed to be an exciting day for him ends after a few minutes in the water in a tragedy – for him, his teachers, his classmates, and his family. Because unlike the rest of the class, Arun does not return from this school trip. In this episode of "Mordlust – Crimes and their Backgrounds" we ask: Who is responsible for the safety of children in everyday school life – and when does a failure become a crime? It's about structural gaps, personal guilt, and a verdict that could change swimming lessons throughout Germany. Experts in this episode are Dr. Daniel Möllenbeck, President of the German Sports Teachers Association, and lawyer Benedikt Müller. **Credit** Producers/Hosts: Paulina Krasa, Laura Wohlers Editors: Paulina Krasa, Laura Wohlers, Magdalena Höcherl Editing: Pauline Korb Legal Approval: Abel and Colleagues **Sources (Selection)** Verdict: AG Konstanz 10 Cs 20 Js 36767/23 beck aktuell: https://t1p.de/8zjli Süddeutsche: https://t1p.de/9zckt RTL News: https://t1p.de/gv799 **Episode Partner** Would you like to learn more about our advertising partners?

Ilko is a historian and author who focuses on processing the SED dictatorship and the GDR past. He himself grew up in a GDR-loyal family and was a member of the Free German Youth, the FDJ. When he was 15 years old, however, he broke with the GDR and his parents' house. In 2024, his book "Freedom Shock. Another History of East Germany from 1989 to Today," which I recently read, was published. I wanted to know from Ilko-Sascha how his personal history should be viewed in relation to the history of reunification, why he is so angry, what lessons he draws from his past, and what the "freedom shock" was for him personally. We talk about contradiction and opposition, fascism, totalitarian ideas, and socio-political burning glasses of our nation. It is also about not forgetting, about freedom and transformation.

New Year 2001: 15-year-old Katrin wants to leave home again in the afternoon – supposedly to visit a friend. At least that's the version she tells her parents. In reality, Katrin has a date with someone else – a man her parents aren't allowed to know about. And this man is among the last people to see Katrin before her trail is lost forever. In this episode of "Mordlust – Crimes and Their Backgrounds," we take you to an inconspicuous bus stop in Lower Saxony – the place where Katrin Konert was last seen and where a mysterious message appears years later. A message that is just one of many mysterious clues that the police are still struggling with today. **Recipe for Paulina's Granola** Ingredients: 60 g Gluten-free oat flakes, 100 g Cashews (roughly chopped), 100 g Pecans (roughly chopped), 70 g Buckwheat, 100 g Almonds (roughly chopped), 100 g Coconut flakes, 60 g Chia seeds, 3 tbsp Raw cocoa powder, 50 ml Coconut oil, 50 ml Maple syrup, ½ tsp Vanilla extract Preheat the oven to 180 °C.

Martha Marek was a woman who rendered people completely defenseless. Through charm. Through beauty. Through poison.

Mehr Krieg, mehr Extremismus und politische Attentate – die Welt scheint verrückt zu werden. Ich denke, es ist ein guter Zeitpunkt, sich mit Volker Weiß über "Das Deutsche Demokratische Reich" (Klett-Cotta) und mit Felix Bohr über "Hitlers treues Volk" (DVA) zu unterhalten. Zudem habe ich noch ein Gespräch von der Buchmesse zur "Dunklen Seite der Sprache" (C.H.Beck) mitgebracht. Viel Spaß!
