This is my second dialogue with filmmaker extraordinaire and force of nature, Werner Herzog. But after I read his amazing new memoire Every Man for Himself, and God Against All, which takes its name for the German title of his 1974 film The Enigma of Kasper Hauser, I had to have Werner back. I have known Werner for almost 20 years. We met when I was a judge at Sundance and we gave his film Grizzly Man an award, and Werner, his wife Lena, and I have been fast friends ever since. He even allowed me to be a villain in the movie Salt and Fire, which we shot in Bolivia with Michael Shannon and Veronica Ferres. So, after all of this time I thought I really had a good handle on him. I was wrong. So many people ask me about Werner, who has a reputation of being larger than life, and I always say what a kind, generous, pleasant man he is. All of that is true, but after reading his new autobiography, I realize that he IS larger than life!!If it weren't Werner, I would never believe all of the amazing stories and events. That he is still alive is alone almost a miracle. For this dialogue I decided that rather than following his story chronologically, I would read him various quotes from the book and ask him to elaborate. What followed was a rollicking conversation that is one of the most amazing I have recorded to date, and that I think presents Werner has perhaps few other interviews ever had. In the process we covered territory from science to philosophy to history to religion and beyond. And in the end, what arose most clearly from our discussion was that while he is a world famous filmmaker, what he really is at heart, is a poet. And we are all lucky to have him. Enjoy!

Kasper's story that began with such mystery ends even more strangely. Was he assassinated? Or did the footsteps in the bloody snow tell a different story? And who was Kasper Hauser?

Before Nuremberg was known for war trials it was the place where a teenage boy suddenly appeared from nowhere with a remarkable story to tell. Soon he was the toast of Europe and many wondered if he might even be someone very special.

When he showed up in Nuremberg, Germany out of the woods with no identification, Kasper's fascinating story took the country by storm. But who was he...really? And who was the real criminal that led to his death?

In this episode of "That Would Be Rad", we delve into the mysterious and intriguing story of Kasper Hauser. Kasper Hauser was a young man who appeared in Nuremberg, Germany in 1828 claiming to have been raised in total isolation. His strange behavior and shocking stories made him a sensation across Europe and still, after almost 200 years, the true identity and background of Kasper Hauser remain a mystery. We also explore the connection between the Kasper Hauser case and the "The King in Yellow" folklore. This haunting and eerie tale is said to drive those who read it to madness, making it a perfect addition to the already enigmatic story of Kasper Hauser. Join us as we attempt to unravel the mysteries surrounding the Kasper Hauser case and discover the truth behind the "King in Yellow" folklore.

When a ragged, peculiar-looking teenage boy was found wandering the streets of Nuremberg on 26th May, 1828, it triggered a centuries-long quest to discover who he was, why he had (apparently) been raised in captivity, and (if so) whom had done such a thing to him. His name was Kasper Hauser. The newspapers went into overdrive, reporting every salacious detail: the boy refused to eat or drink anything apart from bread and water; he seemed astonished by mirrors and candles; he was overwhelmed by loud noises; he couldn't hold metal; the odour of the graveyard sent him into fits… soon enough, he became one of the most famous people in all of Germany.     In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly attempt, in our usual ten minutes, to unpick whether this is a story of child abuse, a fantastical imagination, a deceptive manipulator, or all of the above; explain why some of Hauser's astonishing achievements are arguably *too* astonishing to be entirely genuine; and recall how his death was just as mysterious as his life…  Further Reading: • ‘The Enduring 200-Year-Old Mystery Of Kaspar Hauser' (All That's Interesting, 2018): https://allthatsinteresting.com/kaspar-hauser • ‘The enigma of Kaspar Hauser: Secret prince, hoaxer, or victim?'
