“While it’s true that I thought Abby’s voice might have been synthesized the very first time I listened, I quickly realized she was human, and came to appreciate Berlin Briefing as a short daily dose of local news to start my morning. I found you through Common Ground, a remnant of KCRW Berlin and...”Read full review »

“Thanks for your concise breakdown of the latest and greatest. I love that you go into the nitty-gritty, e.g. regarding new Covid regulations. Still, you keep it short and to the point. The only thing I find myself cracking up about is the pronunciation of some German words.”

“Why don’t you just call it “The Alarmist Corona Report” and have it over with? This is all this podcast is about. Ridiculous. Other things are also happening in Berlin. The Corona thing we know about, Abby.”

“I've lived here since 2012 and have been always looking for a daily English news source and this is the closest I've ever felt to getting an NPR dose of daily news. Thanks Abby for your great research and consistent output. I really love this show! Would it be weird to suggest more crime...”Read full review »

“Interesting choice of stories and really a good service for English speakers in Berlin. The news copy sounds slightly off (perhaps translated by a non-native speaker) and Abby’s voice is a tiny bit robotic-sounding. But I’m going to keep listening as it makes me more informed.”

“This is a useful update on Berlin news for those of us with limited German. Having the notes to refer to the sources is super helpful and I like the mix of serious news with more light hearted pieces. My suggestions of things to possibly add in: top weekend free events in the Friday bulletin?...”Read full review »
