  • 78: Paul muss es Laura sagen | Paul has to tell Laura
    Feb 8 2025

    Understand online comments & question words and pronouns in the accusative and dative: wem, wen, welcher, welchen, keinen, keinem, jemanden, jemandem, ....

    Working online has become a good income source for Paul. He reads some blog comments during the train ride to Sylt: Among other things, people write that at first Paul only took advantage of Laura as a source of information. He answers her message and says he doesn't have time for a date. She wants to know why but he doesn't tell her. He really likes her, and he thinks he will lose her if he tells her that at the beginning he only used her to get information from her. But because people already know the truth, she will find out sooner or later. He figures he has to tell her, but how? How can he soften the news for her that at first he only dated her because he needed information?

  • 77: Ich fahre zu unserem Freund | I’m taking a ride to our friend
    Jan 21 2025

    Briefly describe a place, tourism vocabulary & possessive pronouns in the accusative and dative: unserem/-r/-n, eurem/-r/-n.

    All of a sudden Paul doesn't want to waste any more time. He quickly looks up information about the German island of Sylt, then rushes to get the train to there. Apparently, this is his understanding of „taking action“. On the phone, he gets some tips from Anna: He should try finding Fritz's garage by using the garage opener. Fritz's house is surely close to the garage. And he has a red BMW - there are certainly not many cars like this on the island. Then Laura writes Paul. Her Oktoberfest police operation is now over and she is free. She wants to know if Paul has time. Paul doesn't know what to do: He has no time, but he can't tell her why he has no time because that would shurely make her angry. Will Paul find Fritz on the island? Why would Laura get mad if he tells her why he doesn't have time?

  • 76: Pauls Schlüssel | Paul's key
    Jan 14 2025

    Demand something, complain, and apologize & possessive pronouns in the accusative and dative: ihrem/-r/-n, Ihrem/-r/-n.

    While waiting for the movie to start and looking on the internet for the best surf spots, Tim suddenly wants to see Paul's key ring. Fritz’s garage door opener is attached to it. They see on the website that the sticker on it is a symbol which represents the North Sea island of Sylt. It’s hard to say if Fritz is really on Sylt. Right when Paul intends to turn off his phone, Grandpa calls. Despite the annoyed moviegoers, he doesn't have the heart to cut off the phone conversation with him. Grandpa found out how to find the new address of the hiding place of the painting. But for that he needs the book and the information written in it! Paul's father had helped Grandpa with the research despite being banned from using a smartphone. That’s how he was able to find out that the book nowadays has an extremely high value, too. So Paul absolutely must get the book back! He decides that he has to take action now. What does he mean by "taking action"?

Entertaining !

These podcasts were a great way for me to review my intermediate level German after many years of not studying German at all. It starts out easy but then little by little progresses to the intermediate level, which is perfect for me! The lessons/episodes were bite-size chunks which work really well for us on the go. He also “recycles” vocabulary and grammar so that our learning is reinforced.
Danke!
