Zeitgeist: Sausage stands and Football
Description
In this Zeitgeist episode, we're sticking our heads in the sand and focusing on the real hard-hitting topics: sausage stands and football. It's the zeitgeist we want to be living in. We explore the Würstelstand as a cornerstone of Viennese cultural heritage, and Stephen quizzes Carmen on Viennese expressions—only to question her credentials when she doesn't quite pass the test (but at least she's impressed by his pronunciation). Then, we shift gears to American football and why it's suddenly gaining traction in Austria. Sausage, slang, and sports—what more could you ask for?
