Prog 2: Grönkohl and Porridge

Members of GVO Rugby Union Oldenburg talk about the increasing interest in rugby in the area. Also, a tour of a 60s Culture exhibition in Oldenburg.

Barrie talks to Dr. John Goodyear about British and German culture. Somewhere along the way Germany's self-appointed Ambassador For Comedy manages to add his views too! Also in this programme, Alecia learns the street game of Bosseln.

Niedersachsen's popular dish, Grönkohl, isn't normally associated with porridge making but English Radio somehow managed to combine the two! What set out to be a sober programme about food soon descended into chaos and laughter, especially after the winner of the World Porridge Making Championship revealed his prized spurtle...

Freddy Lloyd describes himself as an aging rocker! He was our guest on our very first English Radio programme in October 2012. Freddy runs a monthly English speaking expat group in Bad Zwischenahn near Oldenburg, Germany. We've edited together his interview in which he talks both about the group and his career in the music business. Sorry we had to edit out the music but licencing only allows us to use music in the live broadcast.
