EP72: Growing up German in the Midwest feat. Lena Understanding Train Station 2023-05-25 | Almost two years ago, we got to interview Joshâs high school German teacher, Christine, about her experiences moving to the U.S., teaching German in an American school and raising a family in Cincinnati. This weekâs episode is almost the sister episode (or perhaps itâs more appropriate to say daughter episode) to that as we had the chance to chat with Christineâs daughter Lena. She grew up in Cincinnati in a German family and only recently moved to Berlin - her first experience living outside of Ohio. We had a great time chatting with her and learning about what it was like to grow up in the suburbs speaking a language other than English at home, if she feels more German or American, what German things she grew up with in the American Midwest and what her experience has been like moving back to her parentsâ country of birth!

EP67: Expect the Unexpected! Culture Shocks That Surprised Us Understanding Train Station 2023-03-02 | Greetings from Munich! Even though Feli's trip came with some complications, she made it home and we got to record an episode in person for you! Granted, we're fresh off a sugar high from all the Krapfen from Fasching/Karneval/Fastnacht⌠you get the point! Just as a lot of people are surprised to hear that Fasching is celebrated in Munich, we have both been surprised by certain things or culture shocks in our respective chosen countries when we first moved there. From the size of the infrastructure and the true ârudenessâ of customer service in Germany or the gun violence and religious prevalence in the U.S. there is a big difference between knowing something and truly experiencing it. Even the most well-prepared travelers canât be prepared for every situation and quickly learn that itâs best to expect the unexpected.

Jonathan and Ashton are originally from the Midwest but have found their home in Germany's Black Forest.

Matheus is actually a fan of the podcast and reached out to us on Instagram offering his time in case we ever wanted to talk about anything Brazil-related. So - spoiler alert - we did and we really enjoyed our conversation about the differences between Brazil and the rest of Latin America, the language difference between Brazil and Portugal, and the German influences in Brazil.

Are you patriotic? Why or why not? đ¤ We know this is a really tricky question and it's possible that your answer is going to be more of an emotional one than a rational one based on a list of pros and cons. But it's such an interesting topic to think about, and based on where we were raised, our perceptions of patriotism can be so different from one another! Just take Germany and the US, for example. Those two countries couldn't have a more different approach towards this topic which is why in this week's episode, we talk about how and when Germans and Americans are patriotic and how we've experienced patriotism (or the lack thereof) in our home country vs. our respective home of choice in the last few years.

Our friend Anna - a Ukrainian who fled to Germany - joined us to tell us about her experiences living in Ukraine when the war began, what life was like in the first few weeks of the invasion, her journey to Germany, and how she has adjusted to life here in Munich. And of course, we discussed some of the fun cultural differences between Germany and Ukraine (Would you have expected "tea" to be one of the first topics that came up here?). We are so thankful to her for being so vulnerable with us and being willing to share her experiences with all of us. We encourage everyone to inform themselves about what is going on and to support the efforts for peace in whatever way they can!Further resources:Kalush Orchestra - Stefania (Official Video Eurovision 2022) â¸youtube.com/watch?v=Z8Z51no1TD0Organizations to donate to: â¸ukrainewar.carrd.coâ¸cnbc.com/2022/03/09/heres-a-list-of-top-rated-charities-to-help-the-ukraine-relief-effort.htmlFrom Germanyâ¸https://www.tagesschau.de/spendenkonten/spendenkonten-133.html---------------------------------------Timestamps:0:00 Intro4:47 Josh's trip to East Germany & holidays9:02 Meat consumption13:15 Learn a language for your summer travels (with Lingoda)19:20 Introducing our guest Anna22:38 Welcome, Anna!24:21 Tell us about yourself36:32 How did you leave Ukraine?44:21 Was Germany really as welcoming to Ukrainian refugees as the media suggest?59:12 How and why did you become a German teacher?1:14:31 German part: How do you perceive Germans and Germany now that you live here?

EP45: 100k Dollars Debt After College?! Money & Finances in Germany vs. USA Understanding Train Station 2022-03-24 | Josh was back in Cincinnati for two weeks, so we got to record a couple of episodes in person 𼳠And we finally got to talk about a topic that we've been wanting to cover for a while now: Money and finances in Germany and the US. While many Americans are probably shocked by the fact that a lot of places in Germany still don't accept card payments, many Germans are baffled by how many people in the US are in debt. From student loans and mortgages to car loans and credit card debt, for many Americans, borrowing money is a normal part of life. So let's talk about the different mindsets and approaches to finances and consumption as well as our personal experiences with credit scores (and the German Schufa)!Download the CHATTERBUG app and learn languages for free with their live streams and shorts!Click here if you're on your phone â¸streams.chatterbug.com/freedownload or here if you're on a desktop⸠streams.chatterbug.com/VisitWebsiteMentioned videos and statistics:EP15: Do we speak the same language?
