In the organizer's words:

The SWR Podcast Festival will once again transform Mannheim into a podcast hotspot in 2026. Over a total of three days - from April 10 to 12 - SWR will present live podcasts in three locations. From true crime and science to talk formats and comedy: podcasters from a wide range of genres will be on site. Young podcast fans will also be catered for: with "Tigerentenclub - Die Hör-Spiel-Show" and the "Lachlabor", there will be interactive activities for children.

Ingo Zamperoni is married to the US-American Jiffer Bourguignon. The tagesthemen presenter and the US journalist have family and many friends in the States, who are becoming more and more ideologically distant from each other. The record pace and the far-reaching upheavals with which US President Donald Trump is currently turning American democracy on its head therefore affect both of them personally. Ingo and Jiffer observe and analyze the current developments in US politics and the effects they have on us in Germany and Europe. The podcast is published every week.
