Megan’s Megacan

Megan’s Megacan was conceived on a late night/early morning between two pals on the banks of a canal – which is a romantic way of saying it started as a drunken conversation in the outdoor section of a Kreuzberg club. Megan, a secondary school teacher, was lamenting her lack of knowledge of German politics to her pal Konrad, a journalist, and asked him if he would tell her about the news if she showed up to his flat ‘with a couple of megacans every once in a while’. Konrad, amazingly, agreed and suggested they make a podcast out of it, or, to quote directly, ‘tape it and put it on the internet.’ Even more amazingly, they both actually remembered the conversation the next day and, seven years later, they are still recording. Just don’t ask about overhang mandates. Cheers!
