Chat, argue or think out loud together.

Here you can experience radio up close, to watch and also to join in the discussion. An engaging conversation about the issues of the day, broadcast throughout the republic, made in the new old centre of Berlin, in the rebuilt City Palace.

Josef Hader has described himself as a “real asshole who can get away with anything”. His audience has revered him for decades for his dry humor and wit. The 63-year-old is considered Austria’s best-known cabaret artist. He has also enjoyed success as a director and actor, including in “Ein halbes Leben” and “Vor der Morgenröte”. Hader was awarded the Grimme Prize in 2010. He is currently on tour in Germany with his solo program “Hader on Ice”.
