Local Tea for Foreign Ears

A warm, honest podcast for foreign women and queer folks living in Germany long-term. We unpack TV shows, music, memes and media – so you finally get the inside jokes without feeling like an outsider.

Is this podcast for you?


💬 You live in Germany but still feel outside the inside jokes.

🫖 You secretly wish someone would just sit you down and explain what the hell is going on – with humour, context and zero judgment.

📺 People keep talking about shows, celebs and memes you’ve never heard of.

🧠 You kind of understand German… until the slang, sarcasm and wordplay starts.

🫣 You’re tired of “how to register your address” expat tips and want real pop culture tea.

🌈 You care about belonging, identity and feeling safe as a foreign woman or queer person here.
