My favorite description of albert speer "early proponent of the powerpoint slide"

For those who are interested, Andrea Wulf's book about Von Humboldt is a riveting read.

Fascinating

Waiting till I'm off from work to listen to this but the title is tasty

Wow nice

I enjoyed most of this, but I really wish she would drop the contemporary politics. I bought the book about halfway through...

Why shouldn't she? It was a really effective way of presenting how the ideas of the philosophers relate to us in our current zeitgeist.

limey pots calling squared head kettles black! lol

Very knock about and relevant to modern times although Frau Wulf could include a longer list of modern malcontents , although possibly she doesn't view other so called current "progressives " actors as enemies of democracy . This episode was great fun and informative . It's all part of the Weimar literary & philosophical heritage and the foundation of how most liberals think about themselves and their perception of the world.

I'll narrow in my depth of knowledge of vampires, and assume that as created in literature, they don't choose their limited class of efficious sustenance or issues with sunlight.

Not bad until the last minute or two. If censorship is being caled for what does "our democracy" mean?

what was the name of that lewd poet? i didnt catch it and it piqued my interest

My goodness the comments. It’s said the Germans have no sense of humour well some of the people commenting on here have mislaid theirs. Lighten up folks.

The liberal nonsense about disinformation online is so disappointing. Such a bizarre take on things.

Unusually this is very poor neither amusing or informative …poor show

Very keen to check this out, having German ancestry on both sides of my family, There are certain things that are sooo “German” for want of a better description, so we’ll see 🧐 … 🇩🇪🛶
