Episode synopsis
In this first episode, Frank Elstner meets Germany's most successful young moderator and satirical cross-border commuter Jan Böhmermann in Cologne's Senftöpfchen Theater. Böhmermann talks more openly than ever about the work behind Neo Magazin Royale and how he sometimes likes to faux pas as a boss. He talks about the forced break after the Erdogan scandal, the intentions behind the Merkel lawsuit and announces: "The real punch line is still pending!" Elstner, who always struggled to balance seriousness and entertainment, meets a like-minded person who admits that this cross-generational task brings them to the same table.
