Podcasts by Another Berlin
Hello and welcome to Another Berlin. We are Katarina and Cody. We both moved to Berlin a few years ago and the whole idea for this podcast came from wanting to explore the history and culture of the adopted city we love. We want to better understand what makes this city unique and inspires so many to want to call it home.
So we will be doing in-depth dives into the ideas and movements that shaped this city and its culture, in parallel with the mainstream.
