Dear listeners,
it is now almost three years since we started the German Words Explained podcasts, and there are now 160 episodes! If you’ve heard the episode from New Year’s Eve, then you will know that this is going to be our last one – for the moment, at least.
As we announced some weeks ago, we are going to producing transcripts of the podcasts, which we will be releasing over the coming months. If you signed up for the mailing list, then you should have already received the sample transcript of the “Käseigel”, and to open our store we have gone back to the very first episode: Das Einwohnermeldeamt.
We intend to sell the transcripts in small groups, sorted by subject. But the first one is an exception and is available as a separate item.
To buy the transcript, visit the new AllThingsGerman Store. You can pay for the transcript using PayPal, and will then receive an e-mail with the download link in it. If you think that we should offer other methods of paying, then please let us know.
Please help us to make this new store a success. If you’d like us to let you know by e-mail when new transcripts become available, then please enter your e-mail in the box below:

Today is the last episode of our German Words Explained podcast, which has now been going for 160 episodes.
We talk about the topics that we covered, and in particular about the Käseigel. Back in June 2007 Maria promised to make one and 158 episodes later here it is:

Ein Käseigel
To finish off the series, we explain the word Wunderkerzen.
