Sirka offers a comprehensive exploration of life in East Germany, detailing the experiences of growing up in Neubrandenburg, the influence of the East German state and the Stasi, and the societal impacts of Mikhail Gorbachev's policies leading up to the fall of the Berlin Wall. She also talks of her intensive gymnastics training and being given pills by her trainer... Sirka also describes the transition to reunification, highlighting the challenges of adapting to a new economic system and the mixed feelings toward sudden exposure to Western consumer culture. Additionally, it includes a reflective conversation on post-reunification life in Germany, discussing Sirka's and her family's adjustment to the changes, including the effects on employment, homeownership, and personal political histories.

Fyrst Horizon Zero Dawn og næu God of War. Tveir FRÁBÆRIR leikir sem við fá framhald núna í ár. God of War 2018 var einn af fyrstu leikjunum sem áhorfendur báðu okkur um að taka og hér er hann! Sirka einu og hálfu ári síðar ... seint koma sumir en koma þó. God of War er stórkostlegur leikur. Saga Kratos og sonar hans Atreus hefur bergmálað í tölvuleikjaheimum frá útgáfu og tók sér sæti sem einn áhrifamesti leikur síðustu ára strax við útgáfu. Arnór Steinn og Gunnar ræða allt við leikinn. Bardagann, útlitið, persónur og margt, margt fleira. Annar þeirra gefur honum algjöra topp einkunn. Getið þið giskað hvor? Hvað fannst þér um God of War? Ef þú átt þennan eftir þá er hann spilanlegur bæði á Playstation og á PC. Takk fyrir það, Sony. Þátturinn er í boði Elko Gaming.

Die klassische Arbeitswelt erlebt gerade ihre Disruption. Immer mehr Unternehmen reißen Wände, Hierarchien und Silos ein, schaffen Einzelbüros ab und fordern mehr Diversity. Plötzlich arbeiten alle agil. Plötzlich tragen alle Turnschuhe. Plötzlich ist das Homeoffice nicht die Ausnahme, sondern dank Corona die Regel. Und die künstliche Intelligenz liest die Bewerbungsschreiben. Personalchefs sind von gestern, Human-Resources-Verantwortliche übrigens auch. Heute heißt das People Experience – so wie bei Sirka Laudon. Sie schaute früher übers Meer in den Westen, hält Kunst am Arbeitsplatz für einen Glücklichmacher, möchte am liebsten mit der israelischen Schriftstellerin Zeruya Shalev ein Bier trinken und sagt, dass New Work mehr ist als ein Sofa oder ein Kicker im Büro. Nach Stationen bei Werbeagenturen, Axel Springer, Otto und der Deutschen Bahn ist Laudon heute Personal-Vorständin der Deutschland-Tochter des Versicherungskonzerns AXA. Sie hat mir erzählt, warum sie Sigmund Freud verehrt, wie sie den Diversity-Gedanken lebt, wie viele Jobs die Automatisierung kostet, ob sie die Affäre um den Ex-Bild-Chef Julian Reichelt überrascht hat – und dass ihr größter Traum in Argentinien spielt. Unsere aktuelle Titelgeschichte: Finanzkrise, Coronakrise, Klimakrise: Alles kein Problem mehr, oder? Zumindest nicht finanziell, so scheint es. Die Politik will keinen Geldmangel mehr kennen. Immer neue Schulden sollen die Zukunft begrünen. Ein ökonomisches Vabanquespiel. https://www.wiwo.de/my/politik/deutschland/grosse-probleme-billiges-geld-schulden-sind-egal/27788942.html (wiwo+) Wenn Sie mir Feedback geben möchten, Lob, Kritik oder Anregungen loswerden wollen oder eine Frage haben, erreichen Sie mich unter balzli@wiwo.de

In 15 Folgen haben sie nicht nur das Girl Gang-Dasein ausgelotet und Frikadellen gegessen, sondern auch PN-Insider ausgetauscht und vom großen Festival geträumt.
