For this episode, we were able to sit down with Jeremy DeWaal during his annual visit to Cologne for the Carnival celebrations. We talked carnival apparel, some of the weirder traditions and got some great insights on how to understand Cologne carnival in a broader historical context.
Jeremy DeWaal is a historian of Germany at the University of Exeter.
