Over the Wall Podcast – Episode 2 – Over the Wall

In this episode, journalist Ulrike Nagel travels to Berlin to delve deeper into her past. Together with her mother, she visits historic sites such as the socialist cemetery and meets up with old friends. Slowly, she uncovers the dark and complex history of the GDR. She wonders to what extent her family was involved with the regime. Was the Stasi present in her life without her knowing it? The search for answers brings to light both new insights and old memories. In the Netherlands, too, you can still see reminders of the Cold War. Raphaël Smid takes us to a Cold War-era bunker in Gouda. In the event of a nuclear conflict, this would function as a military command center.
