Düsseldorf's mayoral runoff election this Sunday could reshape the city—here's why turnout matters.
The episode opens with host Tossia Corman emphasizing the importance of the upcoming mayoral runoff election. Redaktionsleiter Ludwig Krause joins to discuss three key topics. First, he details the Stichwahl between incumbent Stefan Keller and challenger Clara Gerlach, noting Keller's 20-point lead and Gerlach's aggressive campaign including building projections. Krause explains the typically low turnout in local elections. Second, he reveals Aldi will close its store in the Karstadt building at Wehrhahn in June 2026, citing strategic shifts and personnel issues, with Lidl rumored as a replacement. Third, he previews the Chefs in Town festival from September 26-28, highlighting events with chefs like Armin Rohde and varied price points. After a break, the episode shifts to an interview with Georgia Mavridou, founder of Slurp Juicery. She discusses her background in marketing and transition to juice making. Mavridou describes her process: sourcing regional ingredients, hand-washing with special soap, juicing, and double-filtering green juices. She explains her three classic juices—Pink Lemonade, Ace Glow, and a green juice—and their benefits, emphasizing she avoids weight-loss marketing. Mavridou shares her secret ingredients like echinacea and fennel, and mentions seasonal shifts like pumpkin spice juice. She lists stockists including Leckert Deli and Café Pletz. The episode concludes with a call for subscriptions and ratings.
