Episode notes

As Germany celebrates Easter, little do they know that the future is coming in the form of new rules about...passport photos! We discuss the changes and whether we're becoming a modern country. We return to the topic of boycotting US products and look at what's difficult to replace, and we finish off with a review of the first year of Cannabis legalisation across the country. The topic of boycotting US products has continued to pick up pace across Europe since the global turmoil instigated by the Trump regime in America. Having discussed our own feelings on possible boycotts, we look at how to find replacements for US products, what we’re trying to avoid, and what is really difficult to replace. We finish off the show with a major birthday as Germany sees the end of the first year of new Cannabis regulations. How has semi-legalisation changed Germany, and how might legislation change with a new incoming government? Theme tune courtesy of Kloß mit Soß
