For me personally it is very worthwhile,

because I really hear a lot of audiobooks, and at the moment I hear, and all so quiet by Marijke Fallwickel. In the novel it's about what happens when women suddenly refuse, so when they stop doing care work, no longer care for anyone, no longer care or clean themselves and what consequences such a radical stillness brings with it. I've also read all the other books by Marijke Fallwickel and I really want to recommend them to everyone, a great author.

That's my creed, Julia. Interesting. Did you invent that?

I invented it. I had it tattooed on my forearm in fractal font. In elvish. Yes. Genghis. My French teacher once said, and also consciously, not only slightly, but also very consciously, I'll say it in Swiss German, so everyone understands. I'll say it in Swiss German, so everyone understands. And we're going to understand now. Next week there won't be a episode.

Then it will continue as usual. Yes, tear off the bandage right away. So that it only hurts for a very short time. There won't be an episode next week. We're taking a break. I need a break and you know what I need too, Chris? What I need urgently. Shampoo for a younger skin.

At least that has seven days of infusion time. And you need that, you need your peace of mind for that. But after that there will be a Drinni episode every Tuesday until we say next week there won't be any. Exactly. We're dry again, the sprain on your elbow. We're always there. You can rely on us, we won't leave so quickly. But next time we need a little break. You can rely on us, we won't leave that quickly.

But next time we need a little break. And if you're lucky, forget about this trip. This dry spot, you don't get it in and then it gets worse. Then you suddenly ride a person on the subway, on the bus and then you realize, oh, that's got a little bit of 80s sandpaper. That's a little bit of my DNA stuck to my T-shirt. But what we have to say is, we hope you're doing well, and if not, it's okay. Sure.

Don't forget that. Don't forget what's falling under the table. But now I have a question for you. So people who have dry skin now, it's also something I've learned recently. Dust consists of large parts of skin. And skin is human DNA. People who are suffering from dry skin, like me... Me too. ...are more likely to be suspected as murderers,

because there's a lot more DNA in my body. So when I'm driving on the subway with dry skin, there's more DNA in my body than someone who's really well hydrated, who takes care of their skin, you don't lose any skin. Yes, Chris, if the glove don't fit, you must admit, that's the way it is. What? Oh my God. I have to go with a pitch like that about Trudev Williams,

or about the cave of the lions. We can sell an untested hygiene product, a cream, people are interested, they need it, because otherwise you might be suspected of murder. I would like to, now that you said Judith Williams, I would like to briefly say that I now go to a cosmeticist from time to time, who does a cleansing for me, which means a completely stranger person is pressing the pimples in my face. Which is an interesting experience, but it is apparently necessary, because I have a very... I want to say, I want to put it positively, demanding, slightly more complex skin.

And... That's a good phrase, though. I like it, I like it. Yes, and I was with this cosmeticist, who is really nice, and I was really afraid of her, because I didn't have any good experiences with cosmeticists. But she's really very nice. And I was shamed for my very dry ears, though. Oh.

So she said, I really have extremely dry ears. If I would never cream my ears. And then I thought, is that a thing? Do other people cream their ears? And I just didn't realize for 30 years that you have to cream your ears. You, like elbows too, right? Maybe a socially neglected part of the body. Who knows? Have you ever cremated your neck? Yes, I have. And down there you can feel the spine,

where it actually goes over your back. Where you can still reach with your arm. Have you ever cremated that? No, that's too exhausting. See, the third part, which is socially neglected in a human body. You have to say, pure facial skin is a new status symbol.

Where you used to have a new BMW, now it's about pure skin. Yes, that's right. It always has a taste of, we all have to have a smooth skin now, I don't like that either. And where I always think, if you have a pure skin, you get asked what is your skincare routine, where I always think, it's completely out of the question that there is also makeup where you paint over things. And if you don't have pure skin, you get undisputed advice on what to change. Yes, and what is also left out for people who have pure skin, pure sounds always fascist, pure skin, but what is also left out the fact that it's just genetics. You know, it's just like when you're fat,

you're also left out, you're just genetically attached to it and you're not a lazy bitch. Yes. You know? Yes, that's true. But I also think that hygiene is an interesting topic. And I'm also a fan of hygiene, I have to say.

I like to have it clean. Hygiene Ultra. Yes. So my out of the week, unfortunately, I had to, yesterday, I almost want to say, I had to find out more painful. I was in a public toilet. Boo! And I washed my hands there.

30 seconds, as I learned, to massage the product. Do you also have a little one, these sand watches that you used to put on the wall for tooth cleaning with the dinosaur on it, which you then turn around with the rose sand? I had one of the toothpaste brands Elmax, which I am not paid for. And there was such a kids brand there, I think. I always had that. I turned it around and then two minutes. But with the hand washing we learned that everyone has to go a certain amount of time

to rinse everything away. And I enjoy it. It's self-care for me. And a question, Chris. Do you also wash your right thumb with soap? Everything. The whole transmission is smeared and oiled. Nothing is left out. And what fascinates me is that in public toilets,

soap that already comes in foam form. And I always think that the fine screw of capitalism is turned again. Because there is not the pure screwing up of capitalism again. Because there's not the product, but the processed product. And they're saving money. It's like the air in the chips. Right. Foam is air with a little product.

But that's not what I'm talking about. Out of the week are people who don't wash their hands when they're in the bathroom. I was there for 30 seconds. And behind me are three people who walked past me. I was there for 30 seconds and three people were behind me while I was washing my hands and walked past me and not even lowered their heads, not even embarrassed.

Out of this public bathroom, by the way, door open, with a wedge under it. I like that, you don't have to touch a door handle. Yes, yes, yes. But the people go to the next store next door and there is a door handle. Yes, and then they get their carat at the gas station with their hand.

Exactly. And then DNA is left behind. I might want to keep my hand clean. And also what I thought about, actually you want to have your hand clean before you go to the toilet. Why couldn't you establish that you don't just wash your hands after the toilet, but also before you put your hand on yourself. But what is like that!

After two hours of shopping in the mall, you packed everything, you turned the cornflakes into boxes and turned them. You held them on the railing, on the railing. You tried the test products in the drugstore, you had 14 different odors on your body. You grabbed the olives at the small snack stand. Right. And then you put your pants off and touch yourself, depending on how you do it.

I don't want to prescribe anyone how you do it. But I have the impression that I've been on the road all day. Now you have to wash your hands. I think so too. And I think it's really crazy how many people without any regret, give up on these hygiene measures, especially after the toilet. I'm like that when I'm on a public toilet. When I get out of the cabin, the toilet usually looks better than before. Because, for clarification, I'm afraid that people will think that the pollution that was there before comes from me.

And that's why I try to get rid of the grub, everything that I can get rid of without touching anything, so that the person doesn't think that I've done something wrong. I sometimes have the feeling that when I get out of there, I feel pressured when we say there's only one cabin. And there has been a certain mess already. Also in New York, which was a completely different size,

that I go out there, open the door from the cabin and say, sorry guys, I wasn't there. It wasn't me. Right. I want to use a more positive opportunity, namely the one in the week. And I have to admit, that doesn't come from me. It's not intrinsically motivated. That's an absolute no-go when it comes to teaching.

It's not intrinsically motivated. It's extrinsic. I was inspired by a polar light of culinary, by Ralph Zachal. I saw him at the WDR service time. And it was about the topic, also socially, of relevance, Mee-Rettich. And he said, and that's was about the topic, also socially, of relevance, Merettich. And he said, and that's my in the week, Merettich is my in the week,

Ralf Zacherl said, Merettich, that's rock'n'roll in the kitchen. Yes, I think so. And when I heard that, I thought, so, I'll remember that now, Merettich is rock'n'roll in the kitchen and that's my in the week. You know, it's always a question of definition. There are also people who say Udo Lindenberg does rock'n'roll. It's always the question of what rock'n'roll is. And then I really have to say, I hate Mereytich. We are here the controversial podcast, we discuss hot and hot. We are often of different opinions, that's what matters to us.

And I have to say, I hate Mereytich like hell. I think it has a very bad taste. It's a bit like German wasabi, but not cool, you know? It doesn't have that fresh touch like wasabi, but it's a fluffiness. It's a fluffiness in the paste or whatever, how that stuff is called. I didn't listen to anything, because everything that goes beyond the opinion of Ralf Zacherl

doesn't interest me at all. Mee-Rättich is rock'n'roll in the kitchen. And that's the end of the discussion. You wish, I have to push one more. I don't want more Rettich, I want less Rettich. Sorry. But this one I have to let go. Sometimes you have to let the bad spirits out of your body. I have to let go. Sometimes you have to let out the bad spirits from your body.

I had to let that one out. Those are very refined finesses of the language you're playing with. Those are in-between sounds that are usually only on cabaret stages. They're not even on comedy podcasts with USB microphones. You don't know that from this genre. I'm also a fan of language. And not only hygiene. Statement. And I also noticed one thing.

A problem actually from our society. And that sometimes only a different emphasis of the same word. Not more reticent, less reticent, but even finer. A very small emphasis of the same word that triggers something completely different in the opposite. Namely, when I say I work at Hermes, A very small emphasis on the same word that is very different when you're talking to the other person. Namely, when I say, I work for Hermes, that's something you can do.

And when I say, I work for Hermes, that's also something you can do. And I think that's a problem. It's also difficult to communicate. Yes, but with both you can say, where's my Birkinbeck? I've been waiting for eight weeks. Oh, I threw it through the window at my neighbor. I think it's good, depending on how you pronounce it, you'll be mocked for different things. You'll be mocked by people from different levels of income.

I think that's the big difference. But when we're talking about big-time watch games, I had a fixed idea. And you know, I sometimes have fixed ideas when I'm here and there on the road. You're talking less and less. Less and know, I sometimes have fixed ideas when I'm here and there. You're talking about a less-saving. Less-saving when I'm wandering around the park in the Rhine,

when I'm sending my thoughts on a trip. And I had an idea, an image campaign for the city of Kassel. Would you be there? I planned big things. So in my head. Because Kassel has always been the question. What is going on in Kassel? I've never been to Kassel and it doesn't solve anything for me.

There is a connection and I would be skeptical. Also about language. I've heard that Kassel is a so-called student city. And I always think to myself, student cities are cities where there's nothing else, but students have to go there because they're usually taken somewhere else. The same is true for your former home town Siegen.

It's also a student city, and I've been there, and there's nothing there. Yeah, story of my life. I was also banned after Siegen, because I was taken somewhere else. Just because you're already there. Yes, I was banned back to my home town, because I was banned because I wasn't accepted anywhere else. Just because you're from there already? Yes, I was banned back to my home country because I wasn't accepted to any other university.

I remember that I sent 80 applications, 80. I wasn't accepted to any other university. But that can't be true! Yes, it can be true. And that also happens as a student city, because there's not much more than this university. It's just like that now. Well, there's probably much more than this university. It's just like that. Well, there's probably a lot already. It's ignorant of us, but in the end it has to reach the customers.

And when you say image campaign, you have to think forward, you have to think in a targeted way, you don't have to send an I message, you have to say what comes to the other person. You, word player, alliteration, a triad, you need something like that. Right, and I think Kassel is, if you look at it like that, geographically speaking, the heart of Germany. It's in the heart of Germany.

You can travel to the north, south, east, west of Kassel, perfect, you can go anywhere in a medium-long time, but you're in the heart of Germany, and I think we should put Kassel back on the map. Now we get to the word game I was thinking of. I think we should do a show, a new episode as a format, and that is Takeshi's Kassel. You may know Takeshi's Kassel from the 80s, from Japan.

Legendary game show, a jump and run, but with real people who really run and jump over mud and are chased by labyrinths and monsters. I loved it, they sometimes went down a slope in a bowl with a helmet on. I loved it, and we do that in Kassel, with people from Kassel, Kassel and the surrounding. And we open it up, maybe a station, somewhere,

pro 7, could else could get a format that would be nice, something new, something fresh. The employees of Joakim Klaas. Something young, a nice Takeshi Castle. What do you think about my record? Who should I pitch it to? I think it's great, maybe we should hit it at Tele5 or something. But I think it's good. I always liked watching Takeshi's Castle.

And it was always very brutal. They were on a plank. And then they were boxed down. From things that turned in a circle. Or a rope ride over a very narrow bridge with holes. And then they were fired with balls from a cannon. And I remember that the people were really crying on this bridge, but also laughing.

So it was brutal and it was kind of dangerous, I have the impression. But the people were sometimes extremely good-tempered and sometimes completely out of line. And then I always had the impression that a few people were pulled in with it. Yes, and what I found most exciting was that there was a labyrinth and there were a lot of doors.

And then the camera showed everything from the bird's eye view. We saw from above that the person came in, had to always decide for doors, but had to run through it very quickly because there were several obstacles. First of all, some doors lead out into the mud pit. You then flew out directly and then there is also a monster in the labyrinth hunting you. You have to run away from the monster and find the right exit door. And then you see how they're being hunted from one room to the next.

My heart almost stopped. It was so creepy and so exciting. I loved it. I'd like to see that with people from Kassel. I thought we could include the cultural treasure of Kassel. There are so many trees planted in the documentary by Joseph Beuys. We could include them, so that you can see the labyrinth between the trees of Kassel. What do you think? I think that's a very nice idea, where you put a lot of money in it and nobody cares.

But that's exactly what we're looking for. That also fits Germany too. And with Takenji's Castle, it was like Jump and Run. So you have to think about what Castle is about. Now we don't know much about Castle, but we have to change that in the game. Or it shouldn't be about Castle. Yes, it has to be about Castle. So what I know about Castle is that there are trees and it's in the heart of Germany.

And a student city. We have to make it so that it fits Germany. So around the heart of Germany we build high walls and a castle that no one can enter. And that's the student welfare home where the students have to fight for a place in the welfare home. Then we have a social-critical level on it, a bit of a meta level. That fits wonderfully, crazy. I also think Takeshi's cast were always so small actors. People who didn't have a acting education,

but are crazy in the beard, I'll tell you. Karlin, you're crazy. They put on costumes, they chased people through the labyrinth with a baseball bat. I thought that was so creepy, they were always so aggressive. If I had been there, I would have started to cry. Just like in the dungeon, when you go into the dungeon and get scared to death. I've seen that before. I was so scared.

I almost cried and the little child in front of me cried. And they still didn't show mercy. In principle, Sarkashi's Castle is a bit like Ninja Warrior, but without the whole self-optimization. Yes, Ninja Warrior, but without the self-optimization. Ninja Warrior, but without the triceps. One thing, which is a downer, has really annoyed me. We came back from our vacation, unpacked our suitcases, and you said, look, I packed this for Trader Joe's. A snack.

And I didn't pay attention to it, I said, well, it's a thing, it will taste good. You already know what you bought. Then you opened it and we tried it together. And you went down a world and I got a sun rise where I didn't think that this could shine so much light in my life like through this snack. And it annoys me so much that that I the trader Joe snack the toffee chips namely means never that I didn't present this at the snack of the week.

Do you know what's good Chris? This is your podcast. You can still do it. No, that has to be consistent now. So snack of the week New York special USA special must also take place in the USA. Not if we opened the snack on German soil. No, we can't do that. We have to stay true to the deal. I think it's good, because it was a coincidence that the last day you got the box packed that caught your eye.

And that's for everyone who likes dimes. Dimes, these little caramel... Plates. Plates, bonbons, I would say, with chocolate on top. It's actually just caramel with chocolate on top. caramel... plates... I would have said, chocolate-covered chocolate. It's actually just caramel with chocolate. I always think that the chocolate is a bit too sweet and the caramel is always a bit too hard.

And honestly, the dates are always too small. You want a real barz. I've introduced the dates rule here. And now comes the toffee chips. It's basically a date-repeat in my opinion. Only the caramel is softer, it's chips, which is basically a type of You can buy huge dimes. Or build an illegal store with containers. And buy stuff in the supermarket and sell it here again. I think it's fair and I think it's a service idea of yours to see the tip. You shouldn't have done that. It was on a voluntary basis.

Yes, the company is close to my heart. And in Kassel. Toffee chips is rock'n'roll in the snack shelf. Advertising. This podcast is financed by advertising. is rock'n'roll in the snack shelf. Everything you need for a skincare routine. I tested a few products and my favorites are the sun drops with a light protection factor of 50. Sun protection must be there. And I love them because I can mix them into my normal day cream. In the morning you have a little fun effect that you feel like an alchemist who is building something crazy.

The code is valid in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Chris, we haven't done DrinZider for a long, long time. And I think it's time to connect our community with it. We got a message, or rather we we have many many DrinSiders received. As I said, you can always send us DrinSiders with the subject DrinSiders at info.rtrilies.de and DrinSiders are questions. There is the intro, there is the intro, who is a tip?

That's a tip and there is the DrinSiders question. These are two different things. Please don't confuse them, because we always look at the subject so we don't get confused. There are so many mails. Please write DrinSider if you have a question. Here at DrinSider we clarify your investigative questions about DrinSein. Drinnies live as Drinnie, live with other Drinnies, everything is possible. Questions where you can say, if they are not answered, then society is going to be based.

Then it's not only divided, but also tripled, quartered. Then it falls apart completely, like a giant wheel that has not looked over a TÜV for 10 years. Then society dries up like my ears. Yes. And I would like to ask you, Chris, to play the trainer, because now comes a drin-sider. Fabian wrote us, Hello you two, I have a problem and hope that you can help me with your expertise.

It all started about three weeks ago when I noticed how a neighbour's children's shop that drove a little bit off the yard of the family home that the woman lives in. Her argument was that it was way too dangerous, because cars could drive off. Since the children instead were walking on the road next to the road, I couldn't fully convince myself. the relatively heavily-travelled and very unclear street next to it, could not completely convince me of the argument. So I took a deep breath, went to the children and said that they should rather talk to their parents about it, because I think that the street is not really more dangerous. Unfortunately, the kids, about seven to eight years old, did not feel like talking to their parents about it.

Instead, they apparently thought it was good now, where I was their friend, to and didn't feel like talking to my parents. Instead, they thought it was a good idea to come to our garden, where I was their friend. Small first stress moment. After some awkward moments, I had to look inside the baby. I really did. I thought that would be it. Unfortunately, I was wrong. Since then, the children have been climbing end of it. Unfortunately, I was wrong. Since then, the children almost every day came by, climbed over the fence in the garden, rang the bell and so on.

Our garden will only be opened after careful spaying or nightly stepping. The bell was almost put down in the safety box. But other neighbors have even asked me who my new friends are, who trample children in our fresh and planted beds, and I would really like to use our garden again without fear, I need a solution. Just sending it away only helps temporarily. Should I say our garden is too dangerous?

You should rather play in another garden. I am helpless. How do I get the kids out of here again? Many greetings, Fabian. Yes, so there are children who feel very comfortable with Fabian. And it is obviously already so far that it is visually exciting in the neighborhood. So there has to be a so-called rule pushed. First of all, it is a good sign that the children feel comfortable in Fabian's garden.

It speaks for him for his expression, his charisma. It's a kind of kindergarten. It's a kind of kindergarten, it's a kind of guy. Of course you don't want that every day. Kinderfreundlicher Garten. Es ist ein Kinderfreundlicher Garten, es ist ein freundlicher Typ. Möchte man natürlich auch nicht jeden Tag. Also möchte ich auch nicht die Kinder im Garten haben. Also auch wenn ich mal eigene Kinder hätte, würde ich auch nicht die jeden Tag haben wollen. Jetzt muss man mal überlegen, wie wird man die wieder los. Schwierig, wenn sie sich einmal wohl again the keyword, out of the box. No, you can't say that. That's too child-friendly.

Children are not out of the box. Children are not out of the box. A smile of a child is worth more than a thousand golds of this world. A smile of a child is on the horse's back. Exactly. No, children are great. Children are not the problem here. The problem is actually, let's say it like it is, the woman who said,

you can't drive here because otherwise, if cars want to drive off, there could be an accident. Well, now we don't know the basic plan. So we don't know the architectural conditions. We don't know what kind of environment that is. Fabian is on the kids' side, said, you can do it here. And they then, instead of just the finger they have pulled a whole arm in from Fabian and he has now a problem that he does not want to send them away either.

It's probably heartless, he thinks. You don't want that either. You don't want to teach children, but maybe you can do something without actively spreading them that the garden is less attractive for the children. I have an idea. I have learned in my pedagogy courses, you have to meet the children at eye level, as well as everyone else. That means you are not allowed to approach you as an adult, you have to use the means of the children.

Fabian, go to the hardware store and buy you a huge water pistol. You have to equip there. Water balloons filled with mustard and throw them out out the window. Wait a minute. What if Fabian... I don't know, you can't see it in the email, but what if Fabian comes from Kassel? We could connect that. The way to the garden could be difficult. You could pour something, you could create a slope, you could dig a ditch with mud and water. You could pull up a rope, where you have to pull up with pure muscle power

and then have to drive the rope down in a big bowl. And then get chased by a monster through a labyrinth of doors. And only when you find the right door you get into Fabian's garden. What do you think? I think it's good. It's a lot of work, but you could do it.

And if you win a Birkinback from Hermes and not Hermes, then I think that's a round thing. But if it's not that hard logistically, I would go back to the children's means. Water balance with mustard, if that doesn't work. Soft air pistols, stink bombs. That must be a saw rustle. Maybe also small nails on the fence so no pigeons can get on it. So, skin on the fence. We take it back. It's also pigeon-like.

Pigeons are cool, children are cool. But Fabian, think about the thing with the pouring. I keep coming back to the point where I say, he has to pour something. It has to be poured. The earth has to be poured on one side, the other side has to be dug out. It has to be worked with water.

It has to be worked with ropes, with driving bowls, with a labyrinth, with a monster. It just has to be picked up. If you want to get rid of them, you have to go. Then you shouldn't be shy about your job. I think you have to rent prepared. If you want to get rid of them, you have to go the way. You shouldn't be shy about your job. I think you have to rent a construction equipment. But you can do that for one or two days.

It doesn't go into your wallet. What does a bugger cost? 300, 400 euros a day, if it comes up. You can invest that. But then you need ten days instead of the two. Because it's much more exhausting than you thought. I think Fabian should get out of here now. I think so too.

That will be the solution. So, pour water, some bowls that turn in a circle. He can also just turn the whole house into a water castle and in such a big ditch all around the house that you don't even come to his property without a train bridge. He always has to leave the bridge down. But of course he doesn't do that for the kids, of course.

I have another question in there, which personally made me want to ask. From Jesse, he wrote to us. And it's not about someone being sent away, but basically, I don't want to spoil anything, but it's about someone trying to lure other people. Oh, and Jesse writes, I am Jesse and live in a small town called Bingen am Rhein. There is exactly one way to buy in here.

I need to be lucky to buy DM, Aldi, a hardware store and Rewe. All of these shops are located here together in one place with a large parking lot. One day, Rewe was in front of the entrance of the Rewe Main Alptraum. A man who dressed up as a statue was standing on a pedestal. If he had just stood there quietly, I wouldn't have a problem. But he was really uncomfortable. He always makes whistle noises when you pass by, so that everyone looks.

He twinkles, winks, takes intensive a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy,

he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, he's a very nice guy, and all the people who live there are gathered in one place. And there is a living statue, as we know it from a tourist hotspot. I have to say, living statues are a controversy for me. I have a lot of questions going through my head. The first big question is, if you are a statue

and you are awakened to life, and you are suddenly alive, do you really stand still? Is that what you want and you're suddenly living, do you really stop at one point? Is that what you want when you finally start living? Do you still want to stop? I don't understand. That's the question. So what happens to a real statue that exists?

Thinkers. What happens to them? They're smeared. They're urinated. Yes. So a statue that wants, it wants to go. Why does a living statue stay at the same spot, especially before a fox enters?

Especially before a fox? Why? But you could try, if you take the statue life so seriously, we could take it seriously, or Jessi, you could also,inate on it. I don't know. But before that and then wash your hands. Oh god. Oh god. Yes. So really interesting topic. I have so many questions.

I would love to talk to a living statue. But they act like they can't speak. We can lift our hat up, we can stretch our hand out and we can do a robot dance. But we can't speak. We can lift our hat, stretch our hands, and do a robot dance, but we can't speak. I hate turi stuff like the plague. Also those ice cream sellers with the horn, they put ice in it and turn it like this. And they fool the kids.

And they want to go viral with it. I can't do that. Or they do magic, they give the rose, and then she's suddenly gone. And they're like, where is she? What could it be? A trick. So what do we have to do now? Yes, she needs a solution.

This living statue is probably understood as an artist, and how can you punish an artist with ignorance? If you just walk past it and don't pay attention to it. Really, 0.0. You know she's there, she's always there, she's always whistling, she does it herself, just go by. It doesn't matter at all.

Yes, another question I have about it is, have you ever seen a living statue on the way to work? So they have to be in full gear, they are also completely painted, silver, gold, whatever, brass, and they have to somehow get there. Do they then walk, do they take the subway? I saw a shift change. I think it was in Amsterdam

and one person came down, took off a hat. By the way, the makeup didn't go over the hair, that was in the normal hair, the other person got up. And the other thing I saw, where I was a little impressed, she then pulled something up around her, like a mobile shower curtain that goes around you at 360, she then pulled something up around her, like a mobile shower curtain that goes around you at 360 degrees

and then turned around. I watched it exactly, then still with make-up on her face, but then in relatively normal clothes. That's brilliant. Yes, and also an IKEA bag where the costume is. Again, IKEA bags are system-relevant also for the living statues scene.

So you have to say, if they really understand themselves as statues, then you have to say, if a statue is in the way or bothers me, there are also measures. There are also cities, countries, where statues are illegally disposed of at night. With heavy equipment they are driven there, things being put in chains, torn out of the ground and thrown into the next river. I don't want to call for it, but it's possible. I want to count the options.

Now I don't know if Jesse has heavy equipment, if she wants to rent it for several thousand euros. Maybe call Fabian, if he is already pouring up the pure ditch outside, if he can't filling up the burghers outside. If he can't drive over quickly. Bagger sharing.

Yes. I find it difficult, and also this whistling, which is totally disgusting in the public space anyway. Yes. Good question. I think if you can't punish artists with ignorance, then you have to have competition. Yesi, think of a motif. Maybe something like Napoleon, and stands there as a living statue.

And then you have a gadget with you, a gun like Napoleon, that sometimes really loud bangs, where you can put everyone in the shade. I think that would be a nod to the living statue, if not even a little oxidizing. Yes, and you know, she will also notice if she suddenly doesn't earn any more money, because Yesi is much more awesome,

draws more customers, gets much more money, then it will become uninteresting. Or she could also, there are also these crazy painters who paint real 3D artworks on the asphalt with chalk. Jesse could be very good at that. And then paint the statue in 3D on the floor, which looks much better than the living statue, and cash it off with it.

Or put on a stafle, a little stool with three legs, and then start to carve the living statue. Street caricaturist. I think that's good too. But I fell in love with street artists once in my life, I would say. Of course, not all street artists once in my life. Of course, not all street artists want to pull over the table. No, they're great.

There are such and such. But of course I fell in love with the Hüchen players. Because I'm a person, I think when I see something like that, they can tell me a lot. I know exactly how the trick works. But I would like to ask you briefly whether these are really street artists or how the street art is judged in the scene. So do the caricaturists come together at a meeting at the gremium and say,

come on, let's get the street music, what do they have to say? The toy players are not artists, they are almost, I would say, cheaters. Well, they are cheaters. They are always, when the police came by, got up and ran away with all their equipment and then came back when the police was gone again. We'll show who's evil. We'll show who's evil. That's the new signature saying from her.

I think the Hüthenschpieler are organized at Verdi, so that they can defend themselves at least a little bit. But I thought back then, it was in Barcelona on the promenade and I thought I would would understand how this trick works and they can't fool me. And I lost 20 euros because I'm the dumbest bitch in Mexico and it doesn't work because they just fool you. And that's why they had to run away when the police came because they're cheaters. But I paid my tuition, as they say. I was on a trip to Barcelona, which was actually the best trip of my life, because I was exactly one time out of our rental apartment,

which we rented there, and I was there for a whole week, lying in this garden courtyard for a short week, on a plastic field, and all my classmates from the class courtyard of the garden, on a plastic lawn, and all my classmates from my class went to roll, and I had my rest. Because I noticed right away, that was the biggest mistake

I've ever made in my life. And I've already made many mistakes back then. The hat, for example. I shouldn't have gone with them back then. But I enjoyed my time, made the best out of it, and it really became the best. People came back in the evening, early in the morning, and I was sleeping really well,

and I could enjoy the day, and I had my peace in Barcelona. But once I went out, and I was at the beach in Barcelona, walking on my own, and then I sat down, had a quick nap and then someone came and said I want to hypnotize. And then I didn't know what to say, I just got up and went. I think that's also a good thing. So if a stranger comes to you and says I want to hypnotize you, you can leave without saying a word.

So inside I showed a bird,, I'm not letting myself be made a fruit in Barcelona. I would like to say something about your way of going on holiday. I think it's very good. And many people shout at something like that and say, you can't fly to another country, another city and then sit at home all day long,

you have to get to know people. These people underestimate how good you get to know people, culture and language when you stay at home and watch TV. They have no idea how much you can learn about Spain, Catalonia, when you stay at home in the Airbnb and turn on your TV. That's the truth.

I got to know the real USA in New York when I stayed at home and watched TV. What I learned there, the social media in the advertising spots, I saw everything. There's a documentary about Peter Bixl, a Swiss writer. And somehow his dream was, I don't remember exactly what the starting point was. Maybe he wrote a book about Paris. I don't know. Anyway, he never went to Paris, never saw the Eiffel Tower, and then the documentary was about him

going to Paris, accompanying a journalist and getting to know Paris. And what happened? He went to Paris and spent a week in the hotel room with a view of the Eiffel Tower and said, I don't want to go out,

I think it's the best here. And that's how it was for me in Barcelona. On this art-race carpet I felt like Andreas Robens in his gym. Where he also did art-races. In the Iron Gym. I didn't know it better, I didn't know Andreas Robens back then, but I felt strong. I would like to mention Peter Bixel after the training of the millennium.

Is he still alive? We could give him the order. I don't know. I don't follow his work at all, to be honest. Okay. But I've been really keen on a career as a street artist. Where I have to say, since I studied music and made street music for people and know how much money it is there. So they're talking about 200, 300 francs an hour, 200, 300 euros. I also did street music and know how much money it's about. So they're talking about 200-300 francs an hour, 200-300 euros.

If you do it right at the right time, it's not always like that, there are probably also farts, but it gets interesting there. But years ago, as a child, the path was paved for me as a big star in the street music scene, namely as a little boy who playing the digeridoo. And it happened like this. I was at the Gaukla Festival in Lensburg. What, what, what, what, what, what, Chris? What? You can't say that!

Small artists and Gaukla artists from all over Europe and their tricks and numbers were performed there. And then I walked through there, I think it was free, and then it started to rumble. It had a bit of a sound like what I used to know when the Madrasher were driving. I looked at it and thought, what is that? Oh, it's a DJ Redou, and not just one, there are several.

And then a guy with a tank top came up to me, a white young man in his best age with reds, probably did two weeks of work and travel in Australia and then thought, I'll take this culture with me to Europe and monetize it in a small Swiss town and advise children to learn Dijeridoo with me on the streets. And of course I was there on my own, self-employed back then,

and couldn't say no, what should I do? I got in there, I got involved. The first difficulty was that I couldn't sit on a chair anymore. I fell over and had to put on my legs because I couldn't sit properly. Then I was handed out a big wooden tube, which is the didgeridoo. And then I know, I was actually a little too late for this course. He started every full hour or something in a corner of late for this course. He had every full hour or so, or what did he start with, in a corner of these old town streets.

Did you at least get your own mouthpiece? No. That's exactly the point. And that, as a fan of hygiene, as a child back then, I knew about the importance of hygiene. That's because you put a mouthpiece on it with wax. And you can't change that. That's with wax, you have to... And that's already, I'll tell you, that's already experienced some courses. I had a mouthpiece made out of wax. You can't change that. It had to be made out of wax.

And I'll tell you, I've already experienced that in a few courses. And I just blubbered around a bit at the Ditchery Doo. And at the end, a donation was asked. I didn't have any money with me. I was just there to chat. You were solo independent. You didn't have any money. I was interested in the art that was presented there.

And I remember that back then I was standing in front of a magician where I thought, well, I don't know why people are making eyes out of it. He really did the classic tricks. Cylinder. Suddenly a white pigeon comes out where I thought, yes, it's not magic, it's just a trick. It's just a double floor. It's a mixture of fooling around and animal torture.

You're best of both worlds. Yes, it really is. The poor pigeon was put back in the cylinder every full hour of presentation. So, Jessi, I would say you have to make the person your competitor, otherwise you can't spread it. Look at the market, what's on the Gaukla inner market, what can you offer, what can you offer arrow, that's what they call it. What's on the market? What's on the Gaukla inner market? What can you offer? What can you offer?

Is that what you call it? Do you want to be a legal bully? Do you want to be a toy player? But you have to run when the police come. But there are so many possibilities how you can expose this person. And I really want to put that in your heart. Yes, we agree.

People whistling after you, especially women, shouldn't be done. No go. Out of the week, that's even cooler than Marettich. Marettich is rock'n'roll in the kitchen. That's a great quote. And if you, I'll say as a person who doesn't cook that much, doesn't cook as well as I do, if you're somewhere and then people talk, yes, what are you cooking, what is your favorite recipe? And you sit there a bit some complexes on the table, because you might do a more TK pizza than the others. You can just throw that in there.

I think that's rock'n'roll in the kitchen. That's a good icebreaker for parties and societies in general. And I would say that's the end of today's episode. Next week, no episode. We'll be back next week. I'm going to put my ears in now. Chris, I'm looking forward to next week and I'm looking forward to our break. And then I would say, have a nice week, people.
