We talk about why the German government is planning to cut access for higher earners to a parental leave allowance called Elterngeld.
With the skilled immigration law reform set to come into force in Germany, we’ll be discussing the first changes which mainly involve the EU Blue Card.
Oktoberfest starts on Saturday - we talk about how important this festival is and hear from Christina Schönberger, a Brewing engineer at BarthHaas, on German beer culture and history.
