Truly German is a new podcast that talks about the news in Germany.  Sometimes this will by national news, maybe political, but we will also be covering some local topics.

We want to have some fun at the same time, so part of the podcast is our Länderquiz - in which our contestant has to guess in which Bundesland three different news stories took place in.

This week we talk to Cathy Dobson – a British ex-pat living in Germany and  author of the book “Planet Germany”.

The topics are:

1. Elections in Germany
2. Millions for Meerbusch
3. Traffic laws during Oktoberfest

The quiz covers the following stories:

1. Parking for football players
2. Stag night mistaken for terrorist attack
3. No refund after cat eats 500 Euro note
